When Hog Island was going at top

occupied, approximately 3o,l)00 men
were employed. This lorce has bcei.
reduced to about 1.2,uOU and alter • lit

will lie reduced to 2o peicent ot tltic
number, lhe. e men wul complete and
equip the ships still left to be tinned
over to the government.
What is to become of Hog Island
the great problem confronting the
owners of the yard. Recently the Un
ited States Shipping Board took ovci
the title to the ground. Philadelphia
has bivn urged to take over the yard
and continue it either as a shipbuild
ing piant or convert it into a great
terminal. Efforts to interest the sfcat •
have also been made, but the amount
of money required to buy the great
plant has been a stumbling block. Jr
was proposed that the state purchas*
the 1*00 acres with two miles of wat
er front and lease them out to manu
facturing and other concerns.
