 Manufacturing Records.
 An announcement was made in New Haven yesterday by officials of the Marlin Rockwell corporation that the New Haven plant will soon be operat- ing on full time with an increased force Of operatives. The concern will employ 5000 men to complete the or der for 18,000 Browning automatic rifles, which are due on a govern ment contract on June i. At that time the corporation anticipates a, return to peacetime conditions embracing several lines of commercial manufac- turing.
 There is a question as to the prob- able effect of this order on the Rock Well-Drake division in Plainville. When the armistice was signed the Marlin-ROC OCkWoll corporation had the largest production of automatic rifles of any concern in the world, 1900 guns per day being turned out of the plant. The PlainvilIe division was
 
 hours each, the plant never being idle
 The local plant was engaged in making parts for Browning guns, and all commercial activities ceased, to allow full time to be devoted to the needs of the government. When the war ended, however, the work on government contracts was suspended, with the result that a mum Der of op- eratives were discharged. The an nouncement coming from New Haven, however, may result in the hiring of a number of men to finish the job which was begun during the war.
