THE BUSINESS OF
SHIPBUILDING !
The shipbuilding industry is grow
ing to large proportions, every
twenty four hours: Will Morgan
City Get her share of the contracts?
This is the time to act. There arc
! three shipyards here, and there are
! numerous locations to be had for as
j many as might come. Figures re
! cently published by Lloyd's agency
! indicate that shipbuilding has a ro
mance, however, the romance is to
be found, not so much upon the
high seas as in the counting houses
where buyers of ships of whatever
previous condition of servitude and
consequent stage of decrepitude,
count out quite unbelievable sums
of money for almost anything that
will float.
Morgan City in the heart of the
cypress belt, with cheap freight rates
to the pine belt, with deep water in
to those regions, is in poston to han
dle quantities of this class of work.
It is the opinion of J. W. Dawson
Stearns of the Nautical Gazette that
the radical effect which the war has
had upon the American shipbuilding
industry will prove in various re
spects permanent, besides being of
material importance to the world, at
large. "The ships of all other mari
time countries are busy with their
own affairs," he says "and cannot
lend a helping hand. Manufactur
ers who have contracted to suppl>
large lots of munitions and provi
sions, get angry at the delays in for
warding through regular channels
and start the experiment of buying
and operating their own ships of
doubtful worth and they are amazed
to find in a short time that these
vessels have doubled, trebled, or
quadrupled in value, The transpor
tation agents at sea are simply
swamped with orders. Shipyards as
a rule throughout the country, find
themselves unable to promise deliv
ery on new orders, Every yard is
loaded up with contracts for an al
together indefinite time in advance.
Even Scandinavian vessel owners,
unable to obtain tonnage at their
own or British Yards are coming to
America and are buying up and re
equiping old dismantled shipyards.
In some instances they have found
locations and started new plants.
Reports from Cleveland, Ohio,
state that the Great Lakes ship build
ers are enjoying the greatest boom
in the history of the trade. Ship
yards along these lakes are said to
have sufficient contracts to keep
them busy for the next year and a
half. Great Building booms are
heralded all along the Great Lakes
and even the Mississippi and Ohio
Rivers. The attempt to revive the
traffic on the rivers has also been
the source of creating additional
work for the already over burdened
shipyards throughout the nation.
Situated as she is, Morgan City,
should be doing her share of ship
building . Labor is plentiful. What
should hinder the work from going
on here? Can you answer the ques
tion.
FARM PRODUCTION AND PRE
PAREDNESS
Washington, April 10—Hon. Carl
D. Vrooman, Assistant Secretary of
î Agriculture, has become throughly
aroused to the necessity of looking
ahead for food with which to feed
American people. It is the opinion
of Mr. Vrooman that a source of
supply of farm products and meats
is as necessary in the great national
preparedness scheme, as are arms
and ammunition. "Agriculture from
a National Standpoint" is the sub
ject he has chosen to discuss before
the Cut-Over Land Conference of
the South during the great meeting
to be held in New Orleans, April 11,
12 and 13.
Mr. Vrooman has also assigned
various experts from his office to
such particular subjects as he thinks
the Government should give its im
mediate attention and assistance to.
Mr. Vrooman believes that from the
Conference should come some defi
nite plan of immediately making use
of the millions of acres of Southern
cut-over lands. The plan of devel
opment is of national scope and the
lands are especially adaptable to
prompt conversion into a great stock
raising area. The people of the
South are in sympathy with the
views of Mr. Vrooman and are will
ing to eo-operate with his depart
ment in every way possible. Mr.
Vrooman is said to be the most
forceful speaker in his department,
and his remarks will no doubt have
great weight with the land owners
in attendance at the Conference.
To have a fine healthy complex
ion—the liver must be $ptive, the
bowels regular and ths blood pure.
All this is brought about by using
HERBINE. It thoroughly scours the
liver, stomach and bowels, puts the
bodjT'in fine condition and restores
that clear, pink and white complex
ion so much desired by ladies. Price
50c. Sold by Belanger Drug Co.
