special TO The washinston HersId.


Baltimore, Feb. 6.-Keen interest was
manifested today at Sparrows Point over
the offer just made by President Eugene
e Grace OF the Bethlehem Steel Corpor-
alton, to turn over the various branches
OF that concern to the Federal govern
ment in the event OF war with Germany.
A desperate effort is being made to
clear its decks for action" at the plant
for the officials are rushing to complete
the contracts on hand. With that end in
view strenuous efforts are being made to
round up skilled mechanics to work in
the shipysrds, the machine and boiler
shops, the foundry and the pattern and
blacksmith shops
In the event the government takes over
the plant II would be used largely as a
shipbuilding plant, and the indications
are all sorts OF war craft would be made
there. including submarines.
Other local plants would also be a big
factor in supplying munitions Of war. in
cluding the Bartlett-Hayward Company
and the Poole Engineering and Machine
Company. Almost from the time the war
broke out in Europe these concerns have
been running night and day making shells
for the allies.
