 SEEK LOWER COSTS
 While the war continued. costs were kept to minimum but were of less con- sideration than construction of bottoms, whereas now the imperative need has past the fleet corporation desires to place contracts at as favorable figure as pos sible' IL was said there was no intention or permitting any steel ways to remain idle. however especially so long as the prohibition against acceptance of con tracts for foreign governments remains. The cancelled contracts will be replaced with new orders when the ways are empty but the prices are expected to be considerably below those prevailing dur ing the war. which sometimes ran as high as SS50 a ton.
 Government assumption of labor and material hazards also will be abandoned in the future. During the period of hos tilities the shipping board adopted policy of absorbing increased costs. In- creases in wages and overtime pay alone amounted to S30O.e0o GOO. Hereafter ship yard operators will assume the risk of a rise in the price of material or of de- mands for more pay from their worSmen, the government withdrawing it's super vision over such questions and treating the industry like any other with which government orders are placed.
 Readjustment of production costs is ex- pected to be facilitated by new prices for steel though the reductions scarcely will affect that part of the shipbuilding pro gramme now under construction. Most of the steel ships now being built were con tracted for at lump sum, but the fleet corporation is expected to benefit in the remaining contracts, based on the cost plus system.
 'In most instances the yards have pur chased their steel and the new prices will have little effect upon them," 1t was said by D. IT. Cox, manager of the steel ship section.
 "All future contracts will be ruled by the new rate.''
 It was said the shipping board regard ed the cut in prices as likely to encour- age more shipbuilding.

that the fellow who has O good job 10
the one who gets the best offers, while
the poor fish who in out Of a Job is sell
dom tagged by anything worth while.
Circular "a goes on TO say that
when yoar unit 10 about to be demo-
bilixed you may, upon your written re-
quest, remain in the service until the
job is found. This request is not q
re-enlist1nent and does not bind the
soldier to remain any longer than he
wishes. After he has secuted around
and found . berth to his liking, he
may make a written request for a
final release, and it win be granted.
In the meantime, he will be attached
to the most convenient unit and as
signed to duties in which he may be
most useful.
This 10 one of the wisest provisions
yet made for the protection of men
about to be demobilized. When it is
carefully considered it will be seen
that it obviates very largely the cry
Of men being forced out Of the ser
vice without means Of support after
their pay is exhausted.
It should be remembered that Uncle
Sam has employment bureaus, and
that draft boards and other organiza-
tions are taking an active interest in
finding places for soldiers. Thus the
soldier can put in his application for
work at as many agencies 40 he
chooses, and be sure of Army pay and
allowances until he hears of am occu-
patton that he thinks will afford him
the best boost up the ladder in the
civilian world.
