NAVY PUNT HELD
ANSWER TO STEEL
U. S. Production Facilities
Urged as Industry Re
fuses to Bid.
The "sit-down” of the steel Indus
try, which is refusing to bid on Navy
contracts because of the Walsh
Healey act, may force the Govern
ment to manufacture its own vitally
needed material.
Representative Stack, Democrat, of
Pennsylvania, a member of the Naval
Affairs Committee, introduced a
resolution yesterday to authorize the
Navy to build a steel plant near
League Island, Philadelphia, while
Navy Secretary Swanson and Com
merce Secretary Roper pointed out
that there was a Navy steel plant at
Charleston, W. Va.. a relic of war
time, that might be opened to pro
duction. Swanson, however, is op
posed to such action unless it is
forced.
Roper said the Government would
be "more likely” to go into produc
tion to meet its own needs than to
bring in steel from abroad by lower
ing the tariff on the product, as sug
gested by Labor Secretary Perkins.
He said he had recently suggested to
Miss Perkins that an "emergency” be
declared to relax the Walsh-Healey
provisions to clear the way for bid
ding by industry.
This country's steel tariff already
ranks with the lowest in the world,
Roper declared.
In calling for Government manu
facture, Representative Stack as
sailed the steel men who, he said, "are
striking.”
The attitude of the Industry also
brought criticism from Matthew Woll,
a vice president of the American
Federation of Labor.
"Such defiance, whereby employ
ment and welfare of labor is flouted,
is an example of the dangers which
lie in monopoly,” Woll said. "Such
powers concentrated in private hands
do not augur well for the future of
democracy. The situation presented
demands vigorous governmental ac
tion. ’
The steel industry is balking at the
40-hour week proviso of the Walsh
Healey act. It is operating on a 48
hour basis.

ESKIMO FINDS PAPERS
OF HUNT FOR EXPLORERS
I
Pertain to Voyage of British Ship
in Search of Pranklin
Expedition.
Pt the Associated Press.
BARROW. Alaska, February 25.—
Charles Brower, trader, studied faded
papers today pertaining to the voyage
of the British ship Enterprise In search
of the Sir John Franklin expedition
87 years ago.
An Eskimo said he found the can on
a beach 300 miles east of Point Bar
row.
Brower intends to forward the pa
pers to the British admiralty for his
torical purposes.
H. M. S. Enterprise, commanded by
Capt. Richard Colllnson, was one of
many ships which searched for the
lost Franklin expedition, last seen In
1845. The Enterprise was at Point
Barrow in 1854.
If was not until 1879-80 the bodies
of some members of the Franklin ex
pedition were found, though proof of
their deaths was established in 1859 by
possessions returned on H. M. S. Fox.
