CLOSING OF THE TECKLEN- BORG YARD.

AN EXPLANATION.

It was recently announced that the Deutsche Schiffs und Maschinenbau Aktiengesellschat (Deschining) was contemplating the closing down of the Tecklenborg shipyard at Geeste- munde owing to the scarcity of suit- able contracts for keeping the works employed. It was recognised that; such a step would be a severe blow to the town, as it, would throw a number of men out of employment, and accordingly efforts were made to induce the company to reverse ita decision.

Recently, negotiations were opened at the offices of the Tecklen- borg yard between representatives of the Prussian Government, of the Deschimng, and of the workmen's unions. One of the representatives of the company, Dr. Lifschutz, stated that the closing down of the works had become necessary for various reasons, in the first place through the increase in the number of ship- yards in the war and post-war periods, secondly through the com- plete absence of orders for warship building, thirdly through the in- fation of world tonnage, and finally through the competition of foreign shipyards.

The placing of the shipbuilding in- dustry once more on a sound and healthy basis, Dr. Lifschutz con- tinued, was only possible by an im- provement in the prices of new con- struction and of repairs, and by amalgamations for the purpose of "rationalisation." The latter was

From the above declarations, the "Vossische Zeitung" states, it is not sufficiently clear why

the Norddeutscher Lloyd, after with- drawing the freight steamer con- tracts from the Deschimag, almost immediately gave, Blohm and Voss, of Hamburg, an order for two large motor cargo ships. It would seem as if it had become estranged ng ‘ʼn customer of the Deachimag because it did not approve of the latter's very far-reaching plans for closing down.
