TO SHIP CONSTRUCTION. 241 



The President: — Is there any further discussion on this paper? Do you wish to add 

 anything further, Mr. Cox? 



Mr. Cox : — There is nothing I wish to say. 



The President: — The next paper is No. 14, entitled "Hog Island, The Greatest Ship- 

 yard in the World," by Mr. W. H. Blood, Jr., Visitor. 



Mr. W. H. Blood, Jr.: — Mr. President and gentlemen, the hour is late and I know 

 some of you want to go to Hog Island. I will simply show this. 



Mr. Blood then showed two views of Hog Island — one before, and one after the ship- 

 building plant was erected.
