The above telegram, received by
tie editor of the News last night
will be pleasing information to the
people of this city, and probably
means the coming of the biggest ship,
building plant yet located here.
Brunswickians will remember tina,
in early August representatives of the
Oscar Daniels Engineering Company
visited Brunswick and practically de
termined to locate this plant here
provided a suitable site could be Sc
cured for it.
After several visits on the part OF
leading officials of the company, anG
after several weeks of negotiation
with E, T. Lamb, of the A., B. ana A
railroad company, the emense termi
nal of that line, located in the south
end. were secured.
Later on representative w. c. Nc
Gowan, of the Emergency Fleet Cor
poration, with headquarters at Jack
sonville, came to Brunswick repre-
senting the government and officially
inspected the site and approved it.
Since that time the company has
been busy working out contract dc
tails before the Emergency Fleet Cor
pOration in Washington, and the tele
gram from Senator Smith, quoted
above. indicates that the contracts
nave been finally agreed upon and will
,,;p ~, nI
the next two or three days.
The Daniels company is among the
largest shipbuilding concerns in the
United States. being connected up
with the Terry and Tench Company
They have a plant at Wentworth
near Savannah, but have confined
their operations there TO the con
struction of wooden schooners.
The Brunswick plant, The News
understands, will be devoted eXclu-
sively to steel construction, and thai
in all twelve all-steel vessels, costing
million and half dollars each. Or
tota of $1S,00OOOO The ships will
be four hundred feet long, with IA
tonnage of $500 each,
This plant will unquestionably be
the largest shipbuilding concern il
the South, and will give employment
to not less than 1000 men, many o.
whom will be skilled laborers.

Terry and Tench Company; Oscar
Daniels, head of the Daniels Engi-
neering Company; David E. Baxter

Company, together with others inter
ested, on the occasion of their last

selves as being delighted with not
only the site selected, but with gen
