ment is that, because OF the shortage
of skilled labor. the quickest results
can be obtained through giving private'
plants as much of the new work as
they win take. 1t also is pointed out that
the government shipping bill authorizes
construction of commercial ships In
navy yards. This may prove to be a
factor in distributing the huge amount
of new construction contemplated in
the navy and shipping bills.
Many private builders already have
signifed their desire to bid for bat
tleships, battle cruisers. scout cruisers.
destroyers or other craft as the facili-
ties of their yards permit. At least
one Pacific coast bidder will seek a
battleship contract and possibly also
a battle cruiser.

RECORD IN PHILADELPHIA.
Eight Deaths and Three New Cases
of Infantile Paralysis Reported.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, August 10
Infantile paralysis made new record
for fatalities in Philadelphia, when re-
ports to the health bureau showed eight
deaths and three new cases from mid
night to noon today.
DR.. Samuel G. Dixon today placed a
ban on the shipment of bodies of in
fantile paralysis victims through or
into Pennsylvania from other states.
In a statement DR.. Dixon disagreed
with the prediction made at the confer
ence of state health authorities in
Washington yesterday. that infantile
paralysis will be more prevalent next
year, saying that no man can predict
such a thing. He cited the experience
of Pennsylvania, which in 1910 had
more than 1000 cases and comparative
ly few since then until this year. So
far the state has only crossed the 500
mark.
Experience, says DR.. Dixon, has prov
ed that an epidemic of the disease
reaches it's height in August. 1t may,
therefore. be expected to diminish from
this time forward
