TO BUILD MORE RAPIDLY
THAN GERMANS DESTROY
F. Huntington Clark Devises New
Type of Vessel Of Cheap
Construction.

NEW YORK, March "a plan
whereby cargo tonnage can be created
in this country faster than Germany
can sink it, has been devised by F.
Huntington Clark, an American engf-
neer, according to an announcement
made before a joint session of the Au-
tomobile Club Of America. the Aero
Club of America and the Motor Boat
Club of America
The new type of vessel, 1t was said,
could be built in great numbers quick
ly, at small cost and by men of little
skill. Each vessel would be mastless,
would have such low visibility, as com
pared with the great steel ships now
adoat that it could be seen by a SUB
marine at barely more than third Oh
the distance at which the 1U.oo0-ton
steamship now is detected.
Offers Smaller Mark.
In addition. it was asserted the new
craft. propelled entirely by motor,
would offer a smaller mark. would be
more easily maneuvered in event of an
encounter, and because of Its small
draft-of from eleven to thirteen feet
torpedoes that ordinarily would sink
the larger vessel of steel construction
would pass idly beneath it"
1t was estimated that 100000 tons,
or q thousand vessels of 1000 tons
each, with a speed of nine knots. could
be built at a cost of $100,000,000 in a
year These boats would be 1S5 feet
over all, with 36 feet beam. The same
amount of tonnage, with a speed of
fourteen .knots, it was said, could be
built for $50 600, 600,
Mr. Clark's plan is to utilize all of
the coastal wooden shipyards, which
now have n capacity of 250,000 tons a
year. To enlarge these plants, it was
asserted, would require nothing more
than the clearing of additional beach or
bank the laying down of more cheap
wooden ways and the setting up of ad
ditional lumber planning and saving
machinery. The labor he contends,
can be created from the "rawest ma
teriaL"
Statement by Henry A. Wise Wood.
Henry A Wise Wood, in making the
formal announcement to the three
clubs, said:
when 4 10,000-ton steel ship is sunk,
a costly, slowly made vessel goes to
the bottom, with 10000 tons of food. OF
supplies, of costly munitions and a
