REVIVAL OF SHIP
BUILDING IN Maine

Washington Aug. 10.-The war
has brought a revival of shipbuilding
in Maine Once known throughout
the world for its wooden ships, then
falling into a long period of inactiv-
ity, that state again has become a
center of production. Less than Il
year ago there remained but hand
full of yards. and most of them were
relics of the past. Today, g yards,
extending from one end OF the coast
to the other, and larger and buster
than ever in the past, are turning
out vessels for the Shipping Board.
Within the last year, the Maine
yards have been engaged in Lu.lding
116 vessels. many of which have been
launched. Forty one of the 1l6 were
wooden freight steamers of total
lightweight tonnage of 10000; forty
seven were schoonerS. of $4,000 tons
eight We're steel traWlers.
In Portland alone, which before the
are employed on vessels worth $40
Sc 900. Ship building and operation
is sort Of a hereditary possession
among some Maine families. One OF
these was the Hamlen family. known
by the firm of j. H. Hamlen & Son
of Portland. organized in 1915 and
which had discontinued its shipbuild-
ing in 1889.
When the United States called fo-
ships, James G. Hamlen, aged Sc, or
ganized the Cumberland Shipbuild-
ing Company. anu transformed a
swamp near Portland into a shipyard.
He launched his first ship in July
Most Of the workers in the Hamle7
yard are natives of Maine, and as
remarkable evidence of American
adapta ability and Guickness at learn
ing is the fact that less than per
cent of the 100 men in the yard
| knew anything of shipbuilding before
they began work there.
Another modern shipycrd at Port
, land occupies the site of the old Rus
sci yard. 1t is that of the Portland
Ship Ceiling Company. July. 1917
the site was mudhole. but at that
! time the Ceiling Company, which hai
. been making stalls and birs for cat
tie and grain ships. turned to ship
building. Three wooden vessels have
/ already been launched from this yard
! One Of the FORCES in this yard bears
| the legend: Roast the Kaiser"
In Bath, fifty thousand lightweight
tons Of ships are under construction
by the Texas Company. the site OF
whose yard was {; waste of land. The
yard has turned out three steel ships
of almost 10000 lightweight tons
There are also four wooden yards IN
Bath.
At Boothbay and East Boothbay
six shipbuilding concerns expect &c
turn out twelve or more schooners
ranging from 500 to 800 tons each
At Rockland a 1900 gross-ton
schooner was launched recently
Camden and Thomaston yards also
expect TO complete several vessels
this year. South F'reeport. and Bel
fas. also are busting with ship
building activity.
The rigors of the Maine winter vii
not deter the workers, as evidenced
by many sub-zero days Of last De.
cember when in one yard more tina.
$4,000 rivets were driven daily, ar
average Of more than 200 rivets \
day for each group of workers.
