objecting to the commandeering of the entire
Northwestern output of creosoted piling by
the War Industries Board for use at a Sa-a
Francisco shipyard, and copies of the reso
lution were wired to Chairman Hurley, of
the Shipping Board, and to the Industries
Board. The protest Is based on the need of
thia piling in the construction of the pro
posed new port terminal at Smith's .Cove,
and unless the order is modified it will be
necessary to build that pier- of concrete,
thereby increasing the coat tremendously.
