LONG AWAIT Ed REPORT
ON HOG island YARDS
IS MADE PUBLIC TODAY
No Criminal Liability Disclosed But Department Wants
Arbitrators To Decide If Money Should Be
Demanded From Contractors.

Washington. Dec. 20.-The long
awaited report of the department Of
justice on the governments great Hog
Island shipbuilding project, made
public at the White House today on
wireless instructions from President
Wilson, says searching investigation
has disclosed no criminal liability but
recommends that board of arbitra-
ton determine what part, if any, of
the more than $60,000,000 the plant
cost was in excess of reasonable ne
cessity and should be demanded Of
the contractors by the government.
In brief the investigators report:
That the facts do not justify crim-
inal process and that no fraud or Sc
cret profits have been established.
That the probable cost of the plant
will be about SCI. 100000 (including
$6.000,000 for additions by order of
the emergency fleet corporation),
compared with an original estimate
of $21,000,000 and revised estimate
of $27,000,00O.
That no clear explanation of this
discrepancy has been Forthcoming. i,
That prior to February l last, a
condition existed at Hog Island
(which, specifically at least would
impress any one as an organized
riot, tangled mass, or state of chaos. -
That the contractor or agent of the
American International Corporation
in substance has taken the position
that since this was war job, cost
was of minor Importance; and,
That the question of reasonableness
of the expenditures should be referred
to board of arbitration provided for
in the contract, proceedings to be
closed if the board finds the expendi-
lures reasonably necessary, or 9TH
erwise payment Of the excess to be
demanded by the government.
The report. which is dated Septem-
ber 12, 1918, also stated that the
plant would be completed in. Septem-
ber: that the contract substantially
was being complied with and that the
controversy hinged mot so much
upon the question of accomplishment,
but upon means, methods and ex-
penditures.'
General Manager Piez of the En-
ergency Fleet Corporation. appearing
yesterday before. the senate COM
merce committee, testified that the
Hog Island yard would be completed
in about Sixty days; that the cost
would be about s63,000,0O0 and that
the plant had delivered one ship and
laid fifty keels.
The department Of justice investi-
cation was made by two assistants to
the attorney general-G. Carroll Todd
February. ts
The report describes at the outset
the contract entered into by the En-
ergency Fleet Corporation on Sep
tember 13, 1917 under which the
American International Corporation
Of New York agreed to purchase SAG
:, acres of land at Hog Island to be
utilized for the purpose of the con-
tract upon a six per cent rental basis
to build on this tract with funds fur
nished by the Emergency Fleet Cor
poration shipyard of fifty ways and
to construct with funds supplied from
Grand Forks herald. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1916-1955, 1918-12-20

the same source fifty or more steel
cargo ships at an estimated cost of
$1,1O0,00O each. The agreement was
that upon completion of the ships the
fleet corporation might purchase the
land at cost, failing which the con-
tractor might purchase the plant at
value to be fixed by appraisal, fail
ing which the government would
scrap the plant and remove it. The
estimated cost of constructing the
yard was $21,000,000. On october
%, the fleet corporation placed an
order for seventy additional steel
ships, estimated to cost $1,650.000
each. calling for longer ways and
piers and also more shop and storage
capacity. On November 81, the con-
tractor revised the estimate of yard
construction cost, adding $2,750.00O
on account of the additional seventy
ships and $3,250,00O on account of
unfavorable subsoil conditions. costly
labor and necessary extensions of the
plant. On May Z an order for sixty
more ships to cost $1,425,000 each,
was placed. All Of the 1870 ships were
to be completed by August 4, 1919.
This is the conclusion as to GRIM
inal liability:
I'm response to the question sub
mitted by the president, our .conclu-
sion is that the facts do not justify
criminal process; that no fraud or
secret profits on the part of the Of
ficials of either the agent or the fleet
corporation has been established; that
while there were some minor frauds
on the payroll which have been pros
ecuted. the laborers, timekeepers and
payroll supervisors were in the main
honest"
Stating conclusions as to alleged
waste and mismanagement, the report
proceeds:
! I'm what we have next to say we
| do not wish to minimize the boldness
! of the plan of the agent and the
courage and success of the undertake
ing, but we are not able to find af-
factorily accounted in the hearings
before us for the expenditure Of so
large a sum of money in the con-
struction of this plant.
"Waiving all minor questions Of
controversy the outstanding fact is
that the agents summer and fall es-
Inmates of $21,000,000 and its No
vember twenty-seven estimates of
$27, ,000,0 have been so far exceed
will: be about SCI 600, 900. Such a
discrepancy must be due to some
fundamental miscalculation in the
b! original estimate, to supervening con-
ditions, including enlargement of the
plant, to mismanagement in opera
tion, or to a combination Of these fac.
tors. A discrepancy Of such magni-
tude would seem to call for a clear
explanation from the agent, but this
has not been furnished"
A bill in equity for an accounting
by the agent might be brought the
report, says, but the main question
being the reasonableness of the ex-
,penditures, a board Of experts would
be a more suitable tribunal we think,
than a court or a court and jury.
