New Department To Handle Shipbuilding
THE Government's big now shipbuilding drive is to bo run by special Department attached to the Admiralty.
The new Department is most likely to have a chief drawn from outside the Government's present personnel.
His main task will be to ensure as swiftly as possible, the construction of merchant and naval ships, and for this purpose many shipyards which have been out of use since the 1930 rationalisation period are to be reopened.
This most important decision has been taken after long discussion in the War Cabinet.
When the proposal to speed up and extend Naval and merchant shipbuilding was approved recently, difficulties naturally arose about the allocation of ordera between the two services.
There was also the problem
of a shortage of skilled SURVIVED WARSAW
