Opposition Two officials of the Higgins Shipbuilding company of New Orleans told a house merchant marine committee that the navy department opposed opening of shipyards by new companies and that an assistant to the navy sec retary had said in March 1941 that "no new yards could be opened except by old line com panies." Andrew Jackson . Higgins, president of the company, a mo ment later, asserted that he had been told by the navy not to build his New Orleans plant.' He charged that employes of the maritime commission had been ordered "to soft-pedal" his work and "build up Bethlehem." He added in testimony before a house committee studying can cellation of a contract for con struction of liberty cargo ship at his plant that the "soft-pedal" also applied to production at Kaiser, west coast builder. Higgins testified that a mem ber of the commission staff told him that they "were called In and told to soft pedal Higgins, soft pedal Kaiser and build up Bethlehem." Word of the Instruction, he told a committee, came from a member of the commission staff, who, he said, had volunteered to testify before the committee if subDoenaed. Higgins. asked if anyone had indicated to him that the com' mission's order of cancellation had been given "reluctantly," re plied, "Yes sir, and they were forced to do it."
