$4,000 TONS OF STEEL
EACH WEEK FOR SHIPS
War Industrial Board Prom
ises That Amount to Emer.
gency Fleet Yards

The War Industries Board has prom
ised $4,000 tons OF steel plate a week for
the shipyards of the Emergency Fleet
Corporation.
This amount is exclusive of the sup
ply that will go to Japan and China to
fill their contracts for ships. It will en-
able the yards of this country to accumu-
late the reservoir or cushion" so much
desired by Director General Schwab, and
enable all the producing yards to run
at full capacity. Though Mr.. Schwab
asked for 100000 tons a year, consid-
erably more than was granted. both he
and Vice President Piez were greatly
pleased by the addition of 5000 tons
weekly to the regular allotment to the
yards, and praised the War Industries
Board for its fairness.
AS steel plate constitutes about rs
per cent of the steel in ship the rest
being angles, shapes. etc. the allotment
means 1896. 900 tons per year to the
sh 'pyards out of the country's steel pro-
duction of $4,000. 900 tons. BY the usual
reckoning of three times the steel ton
mage in ship tonnage. the Fleet Corpora
tion is now prepared to turn out over
10, 900, 900 tons of ships a year.
Rear Admiral Francis T. Bowles.
assistant director of shipping, said that
Hog Island alone would require 10000
tons of steel a month to keep going at
full speed. or more than % per cent
IF the entire supply of the country.
