It will house some 10000 men and

Some $50 members of the army's
ordnance department have just
moved into one 100000 square-foot
section, completed six months ahead
of schedule They will be followed
gradually by hundreds and then
thousands more. Another section of
the same size is now ready for oc
cupancy and by the years end, the
war department hopes, the entire
structure will be finished
Completion of the first section OF
the spraWling, three-story building
was a history-making achievement
without parallel outside the pages
of the Arabian Nights tales or the
annals of Paul Bunyan.
The contract was awarded last
September | The first ground was
broken four days later by huge me-
chanical diggers crawling over the
320-acre site like machine-age drag

$4,000 workmen, aided by their jug
gernauts, have moved $500, 600

Already the builders have accom-
plished as much as they normally
