NAVY WILL
BE BIGGER
Paints Glowing Picture Of
Ship Construction
in 1943

INDIANAPOLIS April l0.-Sec-
rotary of the Navy Frank Knox,
addressing the second war loan
opening rally. last night translated
the growing might of the United
States Navy into stirring facts and
figures, with the emphasis on air.
plane carriers and destroyer escorts.
He said the Navy this year will
complete more fighting ships, ex-
elusive of noncombatant craft, than
it had in the service at the end
of last year
Warning that the worst of this
war lies ahead of us and the Ger
man undersea power is an ever in
creasing peril Knox said this. year
the number of warships in the
fighting fleet will be more than
double the tonnage completed in
1912 and equal to two-thirds of our
total tonnage of combatant ships
in 1912"
The Navy chief said the early
phases of the Pacific war and car
Ter losses make plain the success
would be influenced greatly by car
rier strength. The number of car
riers will multiply many times the
total carrier force at the end of
1912. The number of destroyer es-
corts, designed for submarine war
fare, completed in 1913, will be
greater than the total of all de-
stroyers in the service December

Sun Used 10 Heat
New War Offices

WASHINGTON-W When fuel con-
servation emerged as a major prob
lem, Uncle Sam harnessed the
rays OF the sun to help heat the
enormous new War Department
building at Arlington, Va
Light sensitive devices installed
on the roof by engineers react to
the intensity of the sun and in
turn control the buildings heating
system. Thus, if one section is
flooded with brilliant sunshine the
temperature in that section is au-
tomatically reduced to compensate
for the thanksgiving rays.

SHIP REPAIR WASTE

A lot of waste is unavoidable in
the haste of war time. However,
better headwork and planning GER
tainly should be able to eliminate
some of the Nays ship-conversion
errors.
Take, for instance, the case of a
twin-screw passenger ship built in
Newport News in 1882.
Last August when plans were
being completed for the North At
rican landing, the Navy asked the
War Shipping Administration for
this ship. together with five others,
to be converted for combat pur-
poses. This one was to be made a
combat loader" which required the
installation of heavy hosting equip
ment, also construction of steel

donate blood to the Washington
blood bank, but wanted no pub

Red Cross officials agreed and

Roosevelt appear at the blood bank

their drive for funds. However, they
