I • ■ cUl, T ■¿Ur .. ql 1 1 J • ■ ■ i r liethlchcm ship production this year will represent the greatest all-round shipbuilding output by any company in the history of the country. — Speed, speed and more speed is the constant objective; and always speed with quality, for a jerry-built ship is virtually useless in the grim tasks of maritime war. The first Liberty ship which recently discharged supplies at a Red Sea port was built in a yard that was virtually non­ existent a year ago. A tanker was delivered in 100 days from laying of keel. A battleship will be delivered 14 months ahead of schedule. Cargo ships are being built in less than one-half the time required in the first World War. Comparable speeding up has been achieved on other types of ships and the schedule is being constantly stepped-up. Expanding old yards, building new ones, tripling employ­ ment in a year’s time, training thousands of new men, putting every effective facility to use, adopting pre-assembly and mass production methods—all these spell tonnage and more tonnage, a steadily-mounting output of ships from Bethlehem yards. All hands are doing their utmost for Victory, working to achieve the maximum for the U. S. Navy and the U. S. Mari­ time Commission, so that the "bridge of ships" shall be main­ tained and steadily enlarged. 4 BETHLEHEM STEEL COMPANY
