great fire raids on Nagoya and

When he took over the 21st com
mand here last January, General

be hit ''more and more until they
decide they have had enough"
Earlier, Brig. Gen. Lauris Nor

"unless there is some unforeseen
change in the war needs,'' the
merchant shipbuilding program
will be about complete by the end
of this year,
Many of the yards on the West
Coast are being converted, as
building space allows, into repair
installations. The admiral explain
ed that the more ships there are
the more repair space necessary.
The repair yards will require a
great deal of manpower but will
not use it in the scale Of ship
building, he added.
Then, the larger number of new
ships will require bigger numbers
of men as stevedores and other
work
But the changeover will be grad
ual and with little if any upset
to family life. Great numbers of
people will not be moved great
distances. He said that many re-
pair yards will likewise be set up on
the East Coast in lieu of those
now building new ships.
He revealed that because of the
need for tremendously large sup
ply shipments to Pacific areas,
much is now being shipped from
East Coast and Gulf ports, be-
cause West Coast ports have not
the capacity to accommodate the
shipping.
Railroads likewise could not pos
sibly move all the supplies overland
