Bethlehem's Bid on Shells
for the United States Navy
To the American People.
The Secretary of the Navy has awarded
contracts amounting to over $3,000,000
to a British bidder for 14 and 16-inch
projectiles for the Navy because of very
much lower prices ottered by the English
bidders.
We know nothing of the basis upon wlflch
the British bids were made, but the pub-
lic is entitled to know the facts upon
which we ourselves bid for this work.
Two years ago we took contract*
to make 4,200 14-iuch shells at a
price of $1,515,000. Up to now
not a single shell has been ac-
cepted by the Government, al-
though we have expended, in
wqges, materials, etc., on these
orders $522,881, and we have not
received a SIN( LE DOI.LAR on
these contracts.
In addition, a literal interpretation of
the contract might make us liable for
penalties amounting to $678,016.
In the light of our experience, and hav-
ing 110 other basis, we bid for 16-inch
shells approximately the same rate per
pound as that which the Navy Depart-
ment actually awarder! a 14-inch shell
contract one year ago.

Mendir.g Lineoleum.
Did you ever try mending the torn
places in linoleum? It's easy. Just
trim the edges of the hole with the
scissors—kitchen scissors—then place
u linoleum patch underneath, or if you
have none of this, use oilcloth. Paint
the edges on t'"> wrong side. Press
down tight agi. if tr-.j patch and al-
low it to dry. l'aint all worn places,
using paint the same color as the oil-
cloth.
