EMPIRE YARDS

Starts Study at Savannah After ‘Cancellation of Ship Contracts.

By THOMAS L. STOKES Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.—Further congressional inquiry is planned into the affairs of Savannah Shipvards, Inc. of Savannah, Ga, which has been taken over by the Maritime Commission after cancellation of its contract to build a dozen Liberty ships becuse of failure to meet financial and facility requirements. This company and Empire Ordnance, Inc, of New York, of which it is an affiliate, heeled themselves for defense and British business by hiring four ex-New Deal officials— Tommy. Corcoran, Charles West, William J. Dempsey and William C. Koplovitz. Rep. S. O. Bland (D, Va), chairman of the House Merchant Marine Committee, said today he had begun an investigation of the Savannah shipyards contract, as part of a general inquiry into shipbuilding contracts by his committee,

Meanwhile, the War Department and the British purchasing commission are taking precautions to protect British ordnance contracts with Empire Ordnance. A trusteeship is to be set up for one of the plants manufacturing tanks at North Philadelphia, com prising one representative of the British, one of the company, and a third to be selected by these two. Empire Ordnance, which has no War Department contracts, has been negotiating for some time to secure American contracts, but has been advised that it will first have to show more evidence of good management. Deliveries on British contracts are reported behind schedule in some cases. Rep. Bland said he had assigned two investigators to look into shipbuilding tracts and had requested the man defense committee of the Senate to make available to them the record of its three day hearings in which the financial structure of Empire Ordnance, the Savannah Shipyards contract, and the employment of Messrs, West, Corcoran, Dempsey and Koplovitz oe explored.

POSTPONE BUILDING EPISCOPAL CHURGH

Plans for the construction of the new $225000 St. Paul's Episcopal Church at 61st and Meridian Sts. have been abandoned for the duration of the war at the request of the Government. The Rev. William Burrows, rector, informed members of the parish yesterday of the request. He said that plans were completed to break groung for the structure this

month, but due to priorities, it was deemed advisable to postpone the project. Members of the vestry and the rector said that they thought every effort should be concentrated to win the war and feared the possibility that should construction go ahead, it might have to be stopped due to lack of materials. The present church, located at New York and Illinois Sts, is one of the older churches, in the City. It was decided to build the new structure at the North Side location because most of the parishioners live north of 38th St.
