Argument without Value

Mr.. Daniels declares that the argu-
ment used by those who oppose the
construction of a navy projectile plant
which contends that the result will be
TO crush American industry. is without
value.
Il have never had in mind" he says,
"a navy plant of greater capacity,
working one shift of men, than one
third of the total amount required by
the navy. The two-thirds left for the
private manufacturers with our new
ships in commission will be greater
than the whole amount of a few years
ago. Only in case of an utter failure
on the part of the private manufactur-
ers to keep their product abreast of the
times or to quote prices in any way
reasonable. would IL be necessary for
the navy by working three shifts in
stead of one to manufacture enough
material to cover our entire needs"

Attitude ''Urfortunate," He Says.

Il regard the attitude of these COM
panies in this and in other matters as
most unfortunate, and, were there no
relief through competition either by
the government or by other more
patriotic firms, l would feel that they
were putting our entire program of
preparedness in peril. The department
wishes to give all of its orders to
American manufacturers whenever they
quote reasonable prices and furnish
shells that meet navy requirements
Nothing but the utter failure of the
most patient negotiations and appeals
TO the patriotism of the little group of
steel manufacturers, which have a
practical monopoly of this business.

ernment to build a projectile factory
and give a contract to a foreign bid.

Regarded as Patent Absurdity."

Referring to a report in certain Amer
lean trade journals that the British
government had urged Hadfields' to
seek this contract for the purpose of
creating a panic in the American steel
market and resultant reduction in
the export price of American steel, the
Secretary says that lis patent alb

no appreciabIe effect upon the market.

Company. which has been filling the

awarded two years ago.

Criticism of Contract Award

GIVES REASONS FOR ORDER

In an authorized statement justifying
large supply of armor- piercing pro-
jectiles for the United States Navy to

Secretary Daniels makes vigorous
attack on American munition makers
and charges them virtually with put

The statement is in reply to pub

which. Mr.. Daniels says. convinced me
that a concise statement of the ex-

used by foreign navies at a reasonable

Reviews Dealings With shellmakers.

The statement reviews the depart
ments dealings with American shell
makers during the last few years to
show that bids from the British con-
Germ previously had been instrumental
in compelling reduction in price for
projectiles furnished to this soeern-
ment- The financial loss to the govern
ment In that connection has been i'm
portant, II says, and adds:
What has not been made clear. how
ever, is the failure Of the companies
manufacturing projectiles with no spur
of competition to drive them on to keen
pace with the improvements in the
quality of armor-piercing shells that
were being made abroad. a difference
in the price of shells can be expressed
in dollars and cents. Inferiority OF
weapons of defense when the fate of
the battle may easily depend upon this
single element, cannot possibly be ex-
pressed by any amount of money, how
