"400 MEN LAID OFF
AT JERSEY SHIPYARD
Cancellation of Contracts
Causes Temporary Suspen
sion in Gloucester Plant
rrSw
jyfjl
'1
About 400 employes of the plato and
angle shop and tlio mold department of
the Gloucester plant of tho Pusey and
"Jones Company were laid oft on Satur-
- day following a notice posted by the
Ofcompany that the Emergency Fleet Cor.
poratlon had suspended the work on
seventeen ships.
Tho lay-off Is only temporary, officials
jOf the company say, because tho com-
0pany has plenty of work ahead. Twelve
of the ships were to have been built
at the New Jersey yard, although work
was suspended on them three months
Jago when Director Schwab ordered the
company to concentrate Its work at the
Pennsylvania yard.
None of the keels had been laid al
though much of the material had been
prepared. The work on the plant con
struction on all jobs that aro essential
' to the completion of the Gloucester
Want will be continued so that work
on ships will not bo Impeded. Tho lay
off was a surprise to the employes, most
Dt whom had been working at night.
The Emergency Kleet Corporation still
operates the two yards. There will be
too more departments closed, but operat
ing forces will bo reduced where pos
sible. G. Barstnrs. treasurer of the
two yards since tho Ihnergency Fleet
Corporation took control, will retire this
'week. ""
