for construction of a government
owned shipbuilding yard at Hog Is.
land, Pa, and for the construction
therein of fifty fabricated steel mer.
chant vessels were let by the emer-

ships
The Hog Island plant will cost
slightly less than $4,000. 900
The other contracts will go to the

tee. The situation looks more hope
full now, however. than at any pre-.
ceding time this year"
The committee ordered another re-
quest sent to farmers and other ship
pers of freight to ship all possible
goods at the present time.
The best time to ship is when the
railways have cars and the weather
is good, Mr.. Murnane said. The sit
uation as to car supply is good now
better than at any time since the war
began. September / the car shortage
was 81 ,59l cars, a number so small
that ii virtually means that railways
have all the cars necessary

Fear was expressed that when win

swamped with business. with the re-
suit that foodstuffs and war material
