have added yard upon yard until we
now have T30 ways on which we are

The vessels are being turned out with
great rapidlty and the cumulative re-

labor. at the same time making IL
clear that profiteering would not be

Altogether his message was one Of
confidence and as such was an as
suring reply to the startling statement
OF losses made public recently by the
British authorities.
Mr.. Hurley's address In part fol-
lows
There were 81 steel shipyards in
America at the time OF our entrance
