The Liberty Dry Dock Company has
submitted a proposal to build a steel
dry dock at Gloucester. Mr.. Piez stated
he believed the proposition would be
rejected so far as the steel is concerned
as all available steel is needed for the
shipyards Labor and steel required. he
said, would be equivalent to construc-

answer the purpose, and would last from

PIEz'S OLD TITLE RESTORED
General Manager of Fleet Cor
poration Known as Such

Charles Piez has again been named
general manager of the Emergency Fleet
Corporation. At the time OF the ap-
pontment of Charles NJ. Schwab as di-
rector general, Mr.. Piez resigned his
title as general manager and retained
only that of vice president in charge OF
construction.
Mr. Piez. however, continued to handle
the office details of the corporation. HIS
appointment as general manager merely
recognizes a condition that has existed.
The readjustment of the organiza lion
of the corporation, in addition to naming
Mr. iPez general manager, confirms
Howard Coonley as vice president In
charge of administration, subject to the
managerial direction of Mr.. Fiez.
