Navy Shipbuilding
Program Authorized;
Work To Be Divided
Washington (U.R) The House
Armed Services committee has
approved a $1,144,883,000 Navy
shipbuilding program and direct
ed the Navy to spread the work
among shipyards on all coasts.
The committee in effect or
dered the Navy to avoid "undue
and dangerous concentration" of
ship building work on the East
Coast or in any other area. The
Navy took the position that this
dispersal policy already is being
followed.
Element of Defense
A spokesman said the commit
tee approved as its policy "that
the dispersal of ship construction
facilities in various coastal areas
of the United States is an essen
tial element of our national de
fense." To this end, the commit
tee agreed, construction work
under the bill should be "dis
tributed throughout the various
coastal areas of the United States
so as to encourage the dispersal
of vital shipbuilding facilities
and so as to prevent undue and
dangerous concentration in any
particular area or areas of the
United States."
Carrier Authorised
The bill authorized construc
tion of a second super aircraft
carrier and a second atomic sub
marine. All told, it authorizes
constuction of 554 new ships and
conversion of 10 others.
Currently, 106 Navy ships are
under construction in West Coast
yards, compared to 119 on the
East Coast. But the Navy told
the committee that tonnage of
the ships on West Coast ways
totals only a little more than
half that of the ships under con
struction on the East Coast.
Before approving the bill the
committee put in an amendment
to broaden an existing ban on
lending, selling, or giving away
Navy ships without consent of
Congress.
Heretofore, the ban applied to
ships of the class of submarines
and larger. The committee ap
proved an amendment to this
law to include "auxiliaries. The
Navy said this, if it becomes
law, will cover most all Navy
ships.

all the flavor and nutrients
of fresh, whole milk
xcept the fat
No longer must patients on low-fat diets be denied the
taste of milk or the nourishment it provides.
SLIM is made from fresh whole milk with only the fat
removed. It supplies all of milk's essential minerals,'
protein, and carbohydrate in the well-balanced propor
tions required for health, vigor, and growth.
In addition, each quart of SLIM it fortified with 2000
units of Vitamin A and 400 units of Vitamin D. This
is substantially more than regular milk contains.
SLIM is recognized as better-tasting and fuller-bodied
than ordinary skim milks. This is because SLIM is en
riched with additional non-fat milk solids. And the
final product is pasteurized and homogenized for ready
digestibility.
SLIM is Only 19c a Quart
