we are now operating on much
lower basis of man-hours per week
than was originally intended and are
turning out ships at the rate of 7 per
month. With the yard fully manned,
the deliveries per month would be
greatly increased. When the yard
was originally designed, it was ex-
pected to work with a full crew of
men "a hours per day and to produce
between IL and ID ships per month.
Our production, with reduced force
and an 8-hour day, of 7 ships per
month, indicates that the yard would
easily have accomplished the esti-
mated production on the proposed
basis of hours ard men, had the war
emergency continued.
Each ship has 100000 rivets. The
average rivet drive per day in the
yard for August to date was 144,OOO
for 8 hours. The average drive for
the first five days of last week was
10000 per day. At the latter rate,
one ship is completely riveted every
three working days.
The ships so far delivered have
SVfSAOu III oCiNlCS al sea IOIdl OI
approximately 100000 nautical
miles and have carried 100000 tons
of cargo.
The wrok accomplished by the or
ganization of the American Inter-
national Shipbuilding Corporation
since September 1917 has been mar
velous. The results which have been
achieved in such wonderfully short
time would have been impossible if
the organization had not been extra
ordinarily efficient from the start.
Great credit is due to the splendid
group of men that have constituted
this organization, many of whom
have been with it since it's inception.
Under the able leadership of
President Matthew G. Brush and his
efficient staff, the work is moving as
fast as labor conditions will permit
and with the assistance of the United
States Shipping Board the remain
der of our contract will be pushed to
completion as rapidly as possible.
Very truly yours,
Charles A. Stone.

My dear Mr.. Lyles:
l am sending you this letter be-
cause / am sure that you will be in
terested to hear of the progress of
the work at Hog Island and what we
have accomplished there in ship
building.
On September Is, 1917, we closed
the contract for construction of the
yard.
On August s.. 1918, we launched
the first ship-the QUISTCONCK-
of 1900 d. w. tons.
On August %, 1919, we launched
the fftieth ship and delivered the
fortieth, completed, to the United
States Shipping Board.
Every ship delivered from the yard
has received the highest possible rat
ing from both Lloyds and the Amer
lean Bureau, and in service has
proved satisfactory in all respects.
All of the fifty ways in the yard
are now filled by keels of ships in
process of construction, and the aver
age state of completion of ships now
on the ways is so per cent. The
record, of ships delivered, accepted
and paid for is as follows:

Such High Development
Possible Only to Hudson

Without the experience gained with
$4,000 earlier cars, this new Super-Six
could not have been so perfected.
-Four years ago the Super-Six checked
the trend to greater number of cylinders
because it gave all the smoothness sought
for without sacrificing the simplicity of tho
six.
1t increased motor power 72% without
added cylinders or weight.
Then it proved in hundreds of record
tests, an endurance surprising all previous
performances. 1t became the largest sell
