Will BUILD TEN 9,000.TON
STEEL SHIPS At PASCAGOULA
Dierks-BIodgett Secure Big Contract
and Are Making Large Adj
ditions to Their Yard.

The Dierks Blodgett Shipbuildine
Company has recently signed a con
tract with the government to build ten
5000 ton steel ships. This contract
will necessitate changes and additions
to the present plant that will make ii
one of the largest shipyards in the en-
tire country. The work of extending
the yard has already begun, and the
700 feet river front has been added to
by the recent purchase of 1900 feet
more, making total frontage OF a
half mile and an average depth OF
about quarter of mile. The land
recently acquired by the company rep
resents an outlay of nearly 100000.
The ships to be built under the new
contract will be the largest that have
ever been built in the South. They
will be Ale feet over all, with 54
foot beam. 1t will take $50 cars of
steel, 1875 cars of machinery, and mean
the addition of about 1000 men to the
companys pay roll. When the new
yard is in full blast between 5000 and
$500 men will be employed in this
yard alone. The steel will be shipped
in by rail from the eastern and cen
trail steel districts, for the purchase Of
which an office has been opened in
Philadelphia Approximately two
years will be required to fill the con-
tract The vessels will be built and
fitted out completely before they leave
here.
The increased business of the firm
has also made necessary the enlarg-
ment of its office force. The company
has outgrown it's Cedar street office
here and is clearing the ground at the
corner of Magnolia and Laurel streets
where will be erected a large, two
story office building, so feet by so feet.
The Office force is rapidly being in
creased by the addition of purchasing
agent, rate men, etc.
The work of building the wooden
ships already contracted for will con
tinue, and new contracts for additional
vessels of this kind will doubtless be
signed when the present wooden ships
contract is completed. Dierks
Blodgett has given one ship to the
government and expects to have an
other ready very soon, with third
and fourth to follow in few weeks.
Among the purchases of property
made to enlarge the yard was that
from DR.. w. F.. Martin, C. H. Bruce,
V. e. Ros, Mrs. Meline, Henry Frentz,
George Frentz, Chris. Brondom, A. j.
Larsen Elmer Larsen, j. w. Mead, J.

LABOR CONFERENCE,

On the sixth day of July, in Gulf
port, there will take place a meeting
the purpose Of which will be to dis
cuss and devise ways and means of
completing the cultivation and harvest
ing of the crops of this state and to
keep in full operation all the essential
war industries.
The effective mobilization of the
manpower of this nation for non-com-
batant occupation is just as important
for the winning Of the war as the mil
itary and naval organiza tions.
Throughout the world, 2S,OOO,OOO men
have been abruptly removed from the
ranks of producers, while they con-
tinue to consume and destroy at a
terrific rate. The task devolvfng upon
those who remain at home has been
greatly increased in order to fill up
this tremendous gap in production
power.
We can't send -four and bread to
our boys across the sea if the wheat
and corn in our fields rot for lack
of harvesters. 1t is the patriotic duty
of every man and boy to lend his
strength at this time of labor shortage
to help swell the wheat tonnage export
ed to our Allies.
1t is the purpose of the meetings. an
nounced by the Governor to insure the
maximum output both in the produc-
tion of crops and in the essential war
industries in order that our fighting
forces will not be less effective for
want of food, munitions. or ships. 1t
is up to us to do our all here while
our boys face the firing line over there.
