NAVY PACT BRINGS
BUILDING PROBLEM
Designers and Construction
Engineers Hope to Add
Power and Cut Weight.
ny the Associated Press.

by the Associated Press.
The London naval treaty has created
many problems to be solved by design
ers and construction engineers in the
naval departments of signatory powers.
The number of vessels has been re-
duced and their tonnage limited, while
at the same time, combat efficiency has
to be maintained.
officials of the bureau of construc-
ton and repair of the Navy Department
said today competition in building more
and larger vessels had been supplanted
by competition of intelligent effort to
build the most efficient fighting unit
within the weight and number of yes
sells permitted.
Speed May Be Added.
although not directly responsible,
the treaty accentuated effort among de-
signers to get the most out of their
vessels within the weight allotted, said
Admiral George H. Rock, chief of the
bureau. weight saved can be put into
other military characteristics, particu-
larly speed, armor and guns"
Outstanding weight reduction meth
DDS developed by Navy Department de-
signeFs include the use of metal alloys,
lighter than steel, wherever safe con-
struction policies warrant, and electric
welding which involves saving in
weight and cost. Naval designers look
forward to the time when rivets will
be displaced almost entirely by electric
welding.
Bonus for Underweight.
The Navy Department has inserted
q clause in contracts for construction
of war craft imposing a penalty for
overweight and granting bonus for
underweight.
Metallurgists have discovered better
alloys with the revived use of alumni
mum. The latter substance had fallen
into disrepute after experiments had
shown IL crumpled after long contact
with salt water. A new process has
been developed, however, which reslsts
corrosion and reduces weight. This
type of alloy has been used extensively
in modern construction.
Electric Welding processes were APP
proved after experience in repairing
engines of German ships Communicated
during the war.
Another saving in weights has been
effected by the use of aluminium paint.
Lead paint has been displaced to a
large extent by lighter and equally eff
Gent aluminium paint.
