ABBOTT SHIPYARDS
LAYING OFF MEN

The Abbott Shipyards in South
Milford have this week layed off a
large number of men. Although the
firm has several large contracts for
steamers and vessels, the layOh was
made necessary because cars could
not be secured with which to bring
lumber from the gulf states. Appli-
cation was made to the federal gov
ernment for permits which would al
low cars to be diverted for hauling
the necessary timbers; but the gov
ernment refused. The answer to all
attempts to secure cars was that
these cars were necessary in hauling
coal, and that until the shortage in
this commodity was lessened no cars
would be available for other kinds of
freight. This layoff of men is serious
for a number of families in South
Milford are dependent upon the
for employment.
