IGNORANT
Calder Charges Fleet Cor
poration's Operations
Are Unbusinesslike.

/ Washington, D. c., Jan 9.-Sena-
tor Calder, OF New York, Republican
speaking today in the senate, charged
that the shipping board and the
emergency fleet corporation have op-
! Grated in an unbusinesslize manner,
with apparent disregard for ex-
pense," and urged that congress de-
I termine the boards general policies
and limit the scope OF its activities.
/ Senator Calder is q member Of the
| senate commerce committee. which
/ has been investigating shipbuilding
/ for many months.
SEys knowledge Lacking.
The shipping board" declared SEN
] ator Calder, has at no time been
made up Of men with a knowledge Of
shipping or shipbuilding problems. A
very large part OF the time and the
( energies OF the fleet corporation has
been given over to building up a
great and cumbersome system OF su-
pervision, rather than TO the building
OF ships.
In the policy adopted towards la
Dor. there has been practically no ef-
fort made to enforce ordinary discip-
line. or to Indicate TO the working
men that they were expected to rem
der a fair return Of work for the high
wages paid"
Senator Calder recommended that
the activities OF the fleet CORPORA
tlon, in connection with the work of
privately owned yards having con-
tracts for ships, should be limited to
inspection and to rendering assist
ance in the supplying OF materials
and facilities and that the work in
government owned yards should be
carried on under the imm ediate con-
troll and direction Of the fleet corpor-
alton
Statistics show. the senator de-
clared. that the shipping program SIS
progressing at approximately 20 per
cent OF schedule speed" and that

tracts
Cost S275 Per Ton.
Contracts for IS per cent, OF SIS
ships, OF the total steel tonnage
planned were awarded by the board,
senator Calder said, TO five shfpbufld-
ing concerns. only one Of which had
had experience in the work, at an es-
timated cost Of S745, o0O. 600. but he
$1,000 100000. At this rate. the avail
able cost per ton was s275, he esti-
mated, exclusively OF the cost Of su-
perVision and control
OF the 513 ships. only four had
been delivered up TO November II,
out Of 103 promised by that date, sen
ator Calder said The companies re-
ceIFing the contracts were the Hog
