$50 Buildings in Yard.

In all there are about go perma-
nent buildings in the yard They
| cover approximately twenty-five acres
| and include a central administration
building housing 1850 persons, and an
engineers building for $50 engineers
a aaeks dra fay noa n There are bar
guards barracks, Y. NJ. c. A building,
large hotel. central cafeteria, mess
halls. model emergency hospital and
innumerable auxiliary buildings which
make up city within itself. There
builders, with $50 instructors. New
men are rapidly trained, GOO at a
| time.
The army of $4,000 workers include
men of all nationalities and all &C.
| equations. Nearly 1000 girls are
work formerly done by men. The
pay roll averages close to s1.000,000
a week.
One of the most serious problems
encountered in the development of
this great city of shipbuilders was
that of housing the army of en-
ployes. The situation was relieved
by the construction of barracks hous-
ing 5000 persons and bachelor apart
ments for 1000 more. Accommoda-
at boarding houses and with private
families in all sections of the city.
Later 900 four and six room houses
were constructed near the shipyard
at an average cost of $4,000 and rent
! ed to the employees at a nominal fig
ure.
Story Of Yards Progress.
Details of the yards progress are
interesting. On September 13. 1917.
the Emergency Fleet Corporation of
the United States Shipping Board
awarded the contract to the Ameri-
can International Shipbuilding Cor
poration to construct the plant and
to build fifty 7,50O-ton cargo ships
On October % an additional order
cargo and troop ships. and on May 80.
1918. the construction of sixty more
7,5OO-ton vessels was ordered, total
of $50. All are to be completely
QUILTED. even to the table linen and
silverware.
Construction work was begun on
the big plant week after the con-
tract was signed, and five months
later the rough, wooded island of SAG
thriving city of shipbuilders. and the
first keel laid.
Eighty miles Of standard railway
track have been put down within the
yard and eighteen miles of roadway
built. Three million feet of electric
wire has been put underground and
an air compressor plant with a ca
pacity of $4,000 cubic feet minute.
the second largest in the world, has
been installed.
In the words of an official of the
American International Corporation,
Hog Island "is a peculiarly American
achievement born of great necessity"

1900. 900 Tons a Year.

In twenty-five and a half months
from the time the contract was signed
on September 10, 1917. Hog Island,
these officials say. will deliver to the
government 1.3S5,000 tons carrying
capacity of ships at cost considera-
ply in excess of $2o0.000,000. When
the yard is in full operation it will
have capacity of 100000 tons
year. more than three times the en-
tire yearly output of America before
the war. About 81, 900 men are en-
gagged in the work.
The fifty ways at the. yard. which is
located on the Delaware just outside
of Philadelphia, extend for a mile and
a quarter along the river front and
are completely equipped with a high
ly flexible system of derricks for as
sembing the fabricated parts. Ad-
Joining them and forming a continu-
Gus water front of another mile and a
quarter are the ship Quitting basins
