Fighting Ship Being Built on Great Lakes

Fighting ships and ocean cargo
vessels are going to war by way Of
Chicago, St. Louis, Memphis. and on
down the Father of Waters to New
Orleans. Vessels more than 800 feet
long, built on the Great Lakes, are
reaching salt water by way Of the
Illinois and Mississippi rivers. Cities
and villages in the heart of the Mid
west are getting glimpses Of frig-
ates - 306-foot submarine hunters
for the American and British navies
and cargo vessels 1884, feet long,
but of light draft, for use in shallow
waters.
The ships are built at Duluth,
Mimi, and Superior, Wise; on Lake
Superior, Milwaukee, and Sturgeon
Bay Wis; on Lake Michigan; and
Lorain and Cleveland, Ohio; on Lake
Erie, in yards under the jurisdiction
of the U. S. maritime commission.
Imperative need for these vessels
appeared in 1943. Frigates, fast and
maneuverable, were needed for con-
voy duty. These cargo vessels,
smaller than the maritime commits
sion's standard CT type, are desired
by the navy particularly for island
operations where narrow ports and
The Hardin tribune-herald., 1944-09-14

shallow water are a consideration.
Shipyards along the coast lines
were operating at full capacity
building large vessels. The yards
on the Great Lakes appeared to be
the logical choice for construction Of
these new type vessels without dis
ruption to the commissions over
all program. The Lake yards had
the building facilities, but the COM
pleted vessels could not get to sea
by the usual route through the east
ern lakes into the st. Lawrence riv-
er. The canals around the rapids in
the upper st. Lawrence would only
accommodate ships up to 259 feet in
length. Another way had to be found
to get these ships to salt water.
The possibility of taking the ships
down the Illinois and Mississippi
rivers was explored. 1t was found
that Chicago's bridges over the
Drainage canal, that connected Lake
Michigan with the Illinois river,
were too low and that the normal
nine-foot channel in the rivers was
not sufficiently deep for the sterns
to avoid scraping bottom.
The canal problem was solved by
removing the masts on the frigates
The Hardin tribune-herald., 1944-09-14

and shipping enough ballast to get
under the bridges. The masts re-
moved at Chicago are replaced at
New Orleans.
The sterns Of the frigates had to
be raised for the long river trip. Air
filed steel drums, 9 feet in diameter
and 20 feet long, did the trick. The
rear part Of the ship was practically
lifted out of the water by four pom
toons, a pair welded and bolted on
either side.
The vessels proceed through the
Drainage canal to Lockport under
their own power. Here the pontoons
are installed.
After the pontoons are attached
the vessels are taken in tow by
pusher-type vessels, much used on
the Illinois Mississippi waterway
and are pushed through the 600-foot
lock and lowered Al feet into the
Des. PLANES river and move on
down into the Illinois river. Here
begins the trip across the middle of
Illinois and to the Mississippi just
above st. Louis, and on to the sea.
At New Orleans the pontoons are re-
moved and shipped back to Lock-
port for another trip.

Electrifcation Presents
Some Difficult Problems

When large piece of equipment
is transported over an electrified
section of an American railroad,
a nine-inch overhead clearance
must be maintained so the high
voltage current will not jump from
the trolley wire to the shipment
and cause a short circuit, says
Golfers.
In cases where this clearance
is decreased by the lower wires in
tunnels and under bridges, the
power is shut off as safety meas
ure and the train has to coast or
be pushed or pulled by a steam
engine through and under them.

Sell Wives for Salt

One of the most marvellous
sights in the world is the progress
of the great caravans of thousands
of camels, laden with salt, across
the vast sandy wastes of the Sa-
hara, bound for Timbuctoo. Salt
laid the foundations of the pros
perity of that tabled city, which
has been the commercial center of
the trade for centuries. From
there it is dispatched over enor-
nous territories.
So highly valued is it that to
this day natives in parts of West
ern and Central Africa will bar
ter wives for it.

But Hyder was afraid Of a gun;

the draft got him. A good one,
too, and he likes the work"
"A cook, huh?" Kane unused.
That's way for me to get him off

That was back in barracks. Now
this was Bataan and the jungle and
the Nips. We were on outpost duty,
Barry and Hyder with US. Sergeant
Kane was in charge. Eight of Ele
men rested in pup tents while four
others watched from foxholes out

clearing where we'd chopped away
the creepers and the thick bush. Hy-

Yes, Barry had been right. The
gun-shy lad could really cook and
he loved the job. too. 1 watched
him now. bending over the stew pot,
pouring in special seasoning he'd
concocted from native spices.
AS he stepped back from the caul-

Come and get it." But right then
things happened all at once. The
little monkey men swarmed out of
the jungle. No noise. no warning
till the bullets whistled through the
mist.
Rush for the tents and grab a
Garand," shouted at Hyder and
acted on my own advice. The next
few minutes were mad whirl-
shots cracking, bayonets twirling,
men reeling. going down. My arms
were weak from the shock of thrust
and parry. Then suddenly the surg
ing tide of Nips swerved and we
stood in the clear. glanced toward
the cook pots and saw a towhead

Japs. The squatty body and heavy
shoulders heaved to the swing of a
baseball bat.

Kane running beside me. We hit
that circle and speared us a Nip
apiece; Hyder was still swinging.
We got through to him and the yel-
low boys scattered. Barry and Kane
carried him to a tent and I looked
at the red-smeared weapon lying on
the ground. There were eighteen
dead Japs sprawled one upon an.
other-every head busted by Hyder's
favorite instrument.
In the tent Sergeant Kane was
swabbing wound in Hyder's thigh.
A bayonet thrust had got him. His
shirt was off and there was long
slash across his ribs.
