WILLLET FORD
BID FOR SHIPS
Government is Willing That
Henry Shall Do the Naval
Scrapping
STEEL HULLS MAY
BECOME PLOWSHARES

WASHINGTON. Feb. Omitted
Fress) Henry Ford will be given
an opportunity TO bid for the Amer
lean battleships TO be strapped I'M
der the naval limitation treaty. Il
was learned today at the Navy De-
partment. Ford recently announced
that he was willing 10 bid for the
American navy and break up the big
ships into scrap iron.
IL became known today that a
special board. headed by Admiral
Taylor. chief naval constructor. is
studying plans for scrapping ships.
and that there is a strong sentiment
for selling these vessels outright TO
concerns which would junk them.
Naval officers are said to oppose
a spectacular sinking OF the doomed
ships In mid ocean. believing that
the steel OF the vessels can be well
beaten into "piowshares' or other
wise used for peace time purposes
While the navy would obtain prob
ably not over five dollars a ton for
the junk. this is regarded as better
than trying TO build up a scrappinl
organization within the navy.
Ford. IL was said has not yet made
any bids for the ships. A number Of
proposals however. reached the de-
partment some OF them suggesting
for instance. that the scrapping b,
done by the bidder Of a percentag,

The Department Is now working

No reduction OF taxes through
such savings can be expected in tn

Il is estimated. however. that be
tween S55O.OOO,OOO and $3.50 600,
600 would have been the annual up

II is also estimated that abou
