Eleeiric Stool Pigeon Shows Shipyards Losing Three Hours of Work Daily By RENNIE TAYLOR ' SAUSALITO, Calif., Aug. 19 VP) An electric atoot pigeon at one of tho country'a major ship yards has disclosed, says the management that the plant is losing three hours of work every day because of early quitting and late starting at lunch and shift-change periods. This asserted loss, plus the three hours regularly allowed for lunch periods, indicates that although the yard operates con tinuously It works at its normal pace only 18 hours out of each 24, As a result the Marin Ship building corporation, operator of the yard, has appealed to the workers themselves to find a remedy. It has offered $1000 In war bonds for the best sug gestions. The stool pigeon, as It Is called by a management publl cation, Is a recording watt meter, which registers continu ously, on paper, the amount of electric power being used in the big plant. A one-day record of the watt meter Indicates that power con sumption begins to drop rapid ly and progressively about 11:30 p. m., 30 minutes before the midnight change, and hits a practical bottom before the whistle blows. The Indicator then moves up slowly for about one hour, reaching a normal level shortly after 1 a. m. This shows, says the company, that workers begin turning off their machines fully 30 minutes before quitting time and that the oncoming shift is slow about getting them going again. Simi lar drops and recoveries are shown for 8 a. m. and 4:30 p. m., the other shift-change periods. Several workers were quoted as saying they had quit a little early to catch transportation homeward. Some said they had to do so or else stand In line fbr lunch. A few said they quit early because they saw every body else doing it.
