Tin - 50c Moth Proof Novel Shipyard LAYS KEELS ON ROCKY ATLANTIC Far-Seeing Ship - Huitder Makes Ready For Construction Of His: Fleet Fur British Trade J By Jack Pillsbury i SOUTH PORTLAND. Me.. May 30: 1 CP) The day dreams that William S. Newell had 20-odd years ago mean today that Britain will have In record time 30 brand new 10,000-ton freighters to add to the Atlantic line of communication. The vessels needed so acutely in the "Battle of the Atlantic" will soon be assembled .in a novel shipyard now taking form on the edge of this cape across from the ship ping centre of Portland. Workmen are Just scooping out dirt to make a big hole and are erecting concrete walls and floors, so they can build seven ships at a time In three big new drydocks When the ships are ready to float they will simply open the gates at high tide and push the boats out. When the water ebbs out at low tide, the gates will be closed and more keels will be laid. Good Location During the First Great War Mr. Newell was engineering and works I manager of the old Bath company. and one Sunday afternoon he hap-1 pened to be In Portland on the; Eastern Promenade, a height af- j fording a fine view of the harbor1 and the cape that Is South Port-1 land. His shipbuilding eye noted what a splendid location the little makers of wooden boats had for their ; work. They were on a gentle slope down to the sea, and near the deep-water channel. It looked good 1 an around. Newell dreamed about; it a bit and then walked on. j Twenty-three years passed. Then 'came another sunny afternoon. It was last October, the place was tlv New York offices of a firm of naval architects, designers of many of the ships built at Bath. 1 "How would you like to build some cargo ships for England?"1 asked William F. Gibbs, head of the firm. "I'd like it," replied Mr.1 Newell. I "It means a lot of perspiration. ' They need them In a hurry." j "I'd rather sweat now than bleed later." "But they' want odd boats, just slow ships, old reciprocating en-1 gines, S,tch boilers." "Well give them the engines and boilers they, want and we'll paint the ships' iplnk. if that's the way they want! ,them." j I A boy brought a chart of Port-1 land Harbor. Newell, pointed out1 j the spot he had studied that day! during the First Great War. But Agreement Safe It took six weeks to make the ,deal. Finally, early in December. R. Cyril Thompson, head of the j British purchasing group, set sail 'for London with the copies of the agreement. He sailed on the West- j ern Prince. The Western Prince was torpedoed. Mr. Thompson' spent eight hours on a life rafti in the middle of the Atlantic be-1 fore he was refjued. He still had j the agreement. Five months have passed. South Portland today shows plenty of. evidence of work. The dirt is being moved at the rate of 7,000 yards a day. Archibald M. Main, vice-president of the Bath concern, explains the big point about the South Portland location. "There's a rock shelf about 30 feet beneath the earth's surface," he says. "We are sloping out down to this bedrock. The concrete will form three big drydocks. In ships- at a time, and two ships at a time In each of the other two drydocks. Cranes can lower material to men In the docks, and they will be protected somewhat from the weather and wind. "When the ship Is ready for launching we will simply open a gate and let the 17-foot tide do the Job for us. It eliminates all the cost and difficulty of launching, and the fact that we are near the deep -channel means that the only limit to the size of the ships we can build Is the size of our docks, and they will be quite large."
