ARMOR HEARINGS CLOSE
135 SITES OFFERED NAVY FOR LO
CATION" OF PLANT.
Experts Widely Divided as to Place
That Would Be Safest In Event
of America Having War.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 14. Hearings
fcefore Secretary Daniels and the Gen
eral Board of the Navy on the question
of a suitable location for the projected
Government armor factory closed to
day with approximately 125 cities and
rural districts asking- for the plant. A
selection probably will not be made for
more than two months.
All possibility of purchasing- a ready-
built plant was disposed of during the
hearings. Only two such factories were
mentioned as possible purchases. The
General Board considers neither satis
factory. Secretary Daniels said today
that every proposal vould be given
careful consideration. The law provides
that the factory, which will have an
annual capacity of not less than 20,000
tons of armor, shall be located with
special reference to safety In time of
war. Naval experts are widely divided
as to the best locality, some declaring
Philadelphia the logical place, others
preferring- Birmingham because -of Its
proximity to the Alabama mineral pro
ducing district, and many contending
that New York. Western Pennsylvania.
Ohio, of the Middle Western states hav
ing water routes for transportation,
should be chosen.

point's difference between the scoring
of Union County, the winner of first
prize, and Lane County, a close second.

and the exhibits, in the aggregate, will
be far more representative of the
state's resources.

served space for exhibits are Baker,
Benton. Clackamas, Coos, Douglas.
Grant, Harney, Linn. Jackson, Jose
phine. Malheur, Marlon. Polk, Mult
