Navy Yard Girl Tells How Hours , Are Topped Off Through pre-assembly on shore of the main battery guns mounted on warships constructed by the Charles ton Navy.Tard, an estimated full week recently has been lopped off the time required to ready these invasion- bound ships for action. Miss Haxel O. Crouch, Civil Service Representative of the Charleston Navy Yard, disclosed last week. Formerly these ghh mountx, auch as potent five-inchers, were hoisted on board ‘the vessels In sub-assembled sections which were then fitted to gether to make up the complete mount Each sub-assembly weighs several tons. Now, on big outdoor platforms, ord nance machinists, electricians, ship- fitters, pipefitters and aaalatlng trades put the guns together to the last detail and the entire unit is holated by giant cranes onto the ship. Then H is Just a matter of fastening the gnn mounts to the deck, connecting the electrical- control circulta and making final ad justments. One of the problems involved In undertaking pre-assembly of the guns was the fact that no Inalde building space was available for the project. The elevated, outdoor platforms, slmn- latlng the deck mounting for the guns, was the answer. Big tarpaulins are spread oyer the turrets as protective covering from the weather while the intricate ma chinery controlling the guns is In- ataUed. - This latest speedup plan—one of many evolved through the teamwork of the NaVy Yard’s shipbnilders—^is being applied on jobs of reconversion and repair as well as in building new ships. It Is for such work as this that the X^harleston Navy Yard la seeking eleotriciaiis, shlpfitters, weld- machinists (Inside and outside), sheetmetal workers,. chippers and caulkers, drillers, plumbers, plpefit- ten. pipecovererf and insulators, anglesmiths, boilermakers and help- en In the various trade#, who are not now in essential war work.

Maaa.. Jan. If.—^Thsre has been a slump in many lines of business since January first Retailers naturally expected a letup in sides after CJhristmas, but their aales usu ally plch up again before this. On the other hand, some basic in dustries are again'speeding up. The shell steel needs have been increased to 600,000 tons per month, while the demand for plates, bars, etc., for heavy tanks Is very great. Crude oil output is continuing to show an in crease over the same period lagt year, it is producing the incredible amount of about 5,000,000 barrels per^day! Paper products, which are in" such great demand for packing ammunition for shipment, are being increased above previous requirements. Lumber products also are ahead of a year aga Farmers received. 10 per cent more money for their ^rops in 1944 than in 1943 and 5 per cent more for live stock and livestock products. Rail road gross earnings, however, which are the beat barometer of general business, have ceased to increase, while electric production has begun to decline. Various reasons are given for this slackraing in general business. Some families have decided to buy no more cheap war goods, others are mixe^ up by the various changes In ration points, while many are thinking only of their boys abroad and have no heart to buy much, while everyone Is getting tired* dertalnly a cloud of some kinif has shut the sunshine off Main Street since the bad news came from France. However, it will be found that this cloud has a silver lining. Recently several important addres see have been made to farm organ ixa- tiona. Farmers are being told by their friends that they must expect a severe slump in agricultural prices after the war. This fact is now -“sinking In" and many farmers , are rather solemn. Railroad labor, whi^ bu been ridint high and handsomer is Hlxew me real izing that railroad traffic will fall off terribly after tha> war. Most of the railroad employees, taken on during the past two years, will be then out of work. Most postwar “new inventions’’ will be labor-saving In effect They will result In fewer people being employed. Since the November election, even the Government has had the courage to tell womerf workers that they will be laid off flnt Bankers and Investors who have been counting on a big for eign postwar demand are realizing tlfkt this la possible only, by their loaning money to European govern ments.

S. .should loan these Allies money to stait so^ ciallstlc and nationally-owned indqs- triee? What'has happened in Belgium. Greece and elsewhere is making many ask for what we are fighting. People are beginning to wonder whether the talk by Churchill and Roosevelt demanding “nneonditlonal surrender" is either Christian or wise? We are coming to realize that world peace will exist only as every nation s|penders unconditionally to God, rmher than to the British Ehnpire or to Mr. Stalin or even to us Americans. Talk about a postwar national in come of 1160 billions continues. Such talk is crazy. With the inevitable postwar depression in agriculture, rail roads, shipping, aviation and all kinds of war work, there will be much un employment. This can temporarily be relieved by more government bor rowing and inflaton, but would mean continued high taxes. Some day tax payers will rebel. 'The only perma nent cure for unemployment Is for moat cities to throw out their present school boards and train children to work and think Instead of to play and complain. ■1945 business will not be up to 1844—probably off a little more than 10 per cent. The stock market may suffer a “communistic scare’’ some time during 1945, but many selected stocks should ultimately sell at higher figures than now prevailing. Com modity prices will strengthen until Germany collapses.
