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 prc-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. BETHLEHEM STEEL COMPANY
