The American Shipbuilding company
is a local concern, owned and oper-
ated by Brunswick people. They have
at present contracts with the United
States Shipping board for the con-
struction of four steamers of $500
tons deadweight capacity
Since commencement of work on
their plant the company has been OIL
fered attractive contracts by private
concerns, as we'll as by foreign gov
ernments, for the construction OF yes
sells to such an extent that they have
found it necessary to double the ca
pacity of their plant, and to this END
they have just consummated the pur-
chase of the Southern Pine Co. OF
Brunswick dock property, adjoining
present plant The present officers
have decided to increase the capital
of the company to enable them to
take on more business, either through
contracts for the building of vessels
or for the building of vessels for their
own account 1t is no doubt a fact
that there is at present a better held
for profitable investment in vessels
than in anything else in the world,
and the American Shipbuilding co.
has indeed rosy outlook. This COM
pany is one of which Brunswick can
well feel proud, and with the added
capital contemplated, it should sooh
be one of the largest concerns OF its
kind in the entire south, and will un-
doubtedly add wonderfully to the de-
velopment and upbuilding of Bruins
wick.
A trip to the plant of this company,
which sixty days ago was little more
than a mud flat, unsightly and aban-
doned. is wonderful tribute to what
push and enterprise can do. The
News wishes unlimited success to the
American Shipbuilding company and
its organizers.

ONE DAY STRIKE:
CALLED IN RUSSIA
LABOR UNIONS DO THIS TO VOICE
PROTEST AGAINST MOSCOW
CONFERENCE.

Moscow, Aug. 25-The labor unions.
opposing the Moscow conference.
have called a Cne-day strike as a
means of protest.
The leaders of the union declare
that the conference will be counter
revolutionary" and that it is not pos,
sible for democratic organization to
participate. They say they regard
the conference as an effort to deceive
the masses.
Protest meetings were called in the
various factories for today. The Max
imilists and revolutionists are also
voicing their opposition and held a
meeting at which it was resolved
that the conference was not repre-
sentative of the people and announc-
ing that they would not abide by any
of it's decisions.
Because of the fact that there is
so much opposition to the meeting
the large opera house where the
meeting is to be held will be sur
rounded with troops for the purpose
of protecting the peace and order OF
the city
The labor people declare that the
one-day strike is simply a means OF
voicing their protest and for no other
purpose and that every trade will be
represented in the. strike and every
member OF the union will leave his
work for the day.
