U. S. May Construct 300
Wooden Sailing Vessels
E* th* Associated Press.
Construction of 300 wooden sailing
vessels in Latin America to offset
part of the shipping losses caused
by Axis submarine action in the
Caribbean was reported under con
templation today by the Board of
Economic Warfare.
At the same time, some congres
sional sources said orders might be
forthcoming soon for the construc
tion of 200 gasoline-powered cargo
vessels for use on Caribbean routes.
A bottleneck in the production of
cargo ship engines was said to have
turned the attention of the board to
the poscsibility of using windjam
mers to bring vitally needed cargoes
of oil, rubbpr. coffee, sugar, leather.
wool and other commodities to the
United States from Latin-American
countries.
Materials and facilities for the
construction of wooden vessels of
this type were said to be available
in Latin America and proponents
contended the whole idea could be
carried out speedily without drawing
on the steel, engines or skilled work
