At this time there is a serious

and any information as to qualificG-
tions of applicant, nature Of work,

SUBMARINE ADAY'
PRODUCTION PLAN
OF FORD FACTORY
Endless Stream of Antisub--
marine Craft Will Pass
Through Works

Washington. Feb. 2.-Production
plans for the Navy's new antisubma-
rine craft contemplate the delivery of
a finished boat every day when the
cycle of production is complete. The
first vessel has already been started
in the fabricating shops at the Ford
Motor Company plant at etroit.
Construction will go by stages. To
turn out boat a day after the elapse
of several months requires that boat
a day be started. Materials that go
into construction are fed into one
end of the plant as rapidly as 1t is
planned to produce the completed
product at the other. The whole
number of boats contracted for will
be under production simultaneously
at one stage.
The power will be furnished by
geared turbines, and since stability
and reliability were sought rather
than freak performance. no effort has
been made to go beyond a safe and
conservative speed estimate
The boats will be fabricated at the
Ford plant, progressing by stages
until they are launched in Lake Mich
igan, to be brought to the sea via the
canal system and inland waterways.
They will measure 200 feet and dis
place about 500 tons, which insures
easy passage to the sea.
The number of boats ordered has
not been revealed. but only a sub
stantial order would justify the prep
arations for production which must
be made.
Military characteristics of the de-
sign have not been disclosed. 1t is
known. however, that while they do
not represent anything strikingly new
in submarine warfare, they will be
