Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Manufacture of Munitions in Canada While all of the work I have described was not undertaken in connec tion with the original order I have discussed it at some length in an attempt to portray something that I do not believe is properly appreciated, the magnitude of the original venture undertaken by the Shell Committee, the amount of hard earnest work it required and the ability with which it was executed. The whole development of munition work in Canada grew from the satisfactory execution of these preliminary orders and General Sir Alexander Bertram and his confreres deserve the greatest credit and recognition for their success.

Download or read book Manufacture of Artillery Ammunition Classic Reprint written by L. P. Alford and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-06 with total page 780 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manufacture of Artillery Ammunition Our vital national need for a text-book dealing with the quantity manufacture of army and navy materials should require little either by way of explanation or comment. Two years of experience on orders for foreign governments have taught our American manufacturers that the making of materials of modem warfare is a new art. It is an art with which we have had little or no previous experience and in which our workmen are unskilled. In England, a little over two years ago there were not more than three government arsenals. Today more than four thousand of England's leading industrial plants are being operated as government factories for the production of war materials, and many other thousands of factories still under private control are concentrating their energies in the same direction. The teaching of the munition-making art to these thousands of manufacturers and to millions of industrial workers, both men and women, has called for a work in industrial organization and education such as the world has never before seen. In France, in Germany, in Italy, in Japan, and even in Russia, this same education and organization of the industrial forces is going forward. We have here in the United States vast resources in manufacturing and producing equipment, but they are unorganized and uneducated for the national service. Our observations of the European war have taught us that it is upon organized industry that we must base any and every plan of military defence, and that in the event of trouble with any one of the several first-class powers, between eighty and ninety percent, of our industrial activity would, of necessity, be centered upon the making of supplies for the government.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Munitions in Canada: An AddressWe are in the peculiar position of being under obligation to deliver these products necessary for war, and which we have undertaken to deliver at a stated time, and yet we have absolutely no authority over any one of the plants wherein the work is being done, with the exception of the fuse plant which my friend Gordon so efficiently organized in Montreal. Failure on the part of railways to move the components, failure on the part of steel plants to produce the product, failure in any one of the various plants to produce the materials required for shipment to the remote point means disappointment, means delay, means some times at the head office seven or eight hundred telegrams, many of them so hot that you would think they would burn the wire while they are in transit.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Armies of Industry: Our Nation's Manufacture of Munitions for a World in Arms, 1917-1918 Therefore we find the actual period of hostilities - the period between April 6, 1917, and November 11, 1918 - devoted to building the foundations of a munitions industry that should be big enough to accomplish this overwhelming result. We might have made a better Showing with our finished war mate rials, we might have aimed at a quick victory - and we might have failed. We did not take this course. America demanded the insurance that existed in the complete utilization of all her resources; and in the progress of welding those resources into a single vast war machine, such munitions of the more difficult sort as were actually produced may almost be regarded as casual to the main enterprise - mere harbingers of the quantities to come. The decision to prepare heavily for 1919 and 1920 and thus sacrifice in 1917 and 1918 the munitions which could have been produced at the cost of a less adequate fundamental prep aration, was based on sound strategical reasoning on the part of the Allies and ourselves. Looking back at the past, we find that on April 6, 1917, the United States scarcely realized the gravity of what she was undertaking to do. There was a general impression, reaching even into Government, that the Allies alone were competent to defeat the Central Powers in time, and that America's part would be largely one of moral support, with expanding preparation in the background as insurance against any unforeseen disasters. In conformity with this attitude we sent the first division of American troops to France, in the spring of 1917, to be Our earnest to the gov ernments and peoples of the Allies that we were with them in the great struggle. Not until after the departure Of the various foreign missions which came to this country during that Spring did America fully awake to the seriousness of the situation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from America's Munitions, 1917-1918: Report of Benedict Crowell, the Assistant Secretary of War, Director of Munitions Except in one or two instances, this account of the production of munitions in America for the war against Germany and her allies contains nothing about secret devices invented during the period under discussion. When the necessity for silence with respect to vital matters brought about a voluntary censorship in American publications, the land was filled with rumors of new and revolutionary developments in war materiel, particularly of new weapons of Offense. It is fair to the American public to-day to state that such rumors were not without foundation. American inventiveness rose splendidly to the emergency. The expected American Offensive in 1919 would have had its surprises in numbers, some of which might well have proved to be decisive. Certain Of these inventions had been put in large production before the armistice was declared, others had been carried to an advanced experimental stage that insured their success. Since the value of these innovations as part of the Nation's permanent military assets depends largely upon their secret nature, it would be obviously unwise to mention or describe them at this time.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Manufacture and Sale of Munitions of War: An Address Delivered Before the National Convention of the Navy League of the United States, Washington, D. C., April 10-13, 1916 If the democrats question our views, I cite Jefferson their founder and if the republicans, I cite Hamilton, their founder. Mir. Seward, the great Secretary of State under Abraham Lincoln, when Mexico objected to the sale of military sup plies to the French under Maximillian, answered with equal decision, asserting our right and saying that otherwise, Commer-cc, . Instead of being free and independent, would exist only at the caprice of war. (december 15, Mr. Seward and our whole people were most hostile to the French occupations and ultimately compelled its abandonment, but the rule was too clear to dispute and too important to in any way abate.

Download or read book Directory of the Chemical Industries in Canada as of Date January 1 1919 Classic Reprint written by Canada; Dominion Bureau of Statistics and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Directory of the Chemical Industries in Canada as of Date January 1, 1919 At the request of the Honorary Advisory Council for Scientific and Industrial Research, the Dominion Bureau of Statistics recently undertook a special survey of Canadian Chemical Industries, as a section of the annual Industrial Census. The purpose of the survey was twofold: (1) to provide a directory of Canadian Chemical Industries and their products for the use of the trade; and (2) to assemble data regarding the raw materials used, the products and by-products manufactured, imports and exports, and other information calculated to indicate not only the importance of the industry and the progress which it has made during the war, but also possible new and profitable trade openings in industrial chemical lines. The present report represents the first section of the above, namely, the Directory of Canadian Chemical Industries. In the term chemical industries is included: (1) all concerns engaged in the production of chemicals, either as main products or as by-products, and (2) concerns in which any of the processes used are essentially dependent on the agency of chemical change. The directory is in two divisions: (1) an alphabetical list of the various concerns, the head office address of each, and the location of branches where such exist, together with a detailed list of their products, including in the latter chemicals and products resulting from chemical processes; (2) a list alphabetically arranged of the chemical products manufactured in Canada showing the names of the various firms engaged in their manufacture. The carrying out of the survey has been under the direction of Mr. S. J. Cook, B.A., A.I.C., of the Food and Drugs Laboratory of the Department of Trade and Commerce, as Chemist in Charge. The thanks of the Bureau are hereby tendered to the Laboratory and also to Mr. Alfred Burton, Honorary Secretary of the Society of Chemical Industry in Canada, for valuable assistance and data. It is requested that any inaccuracies or omissions in the directory be brought to the attention of the Bureau at the earliest possible moment. As the need for publication was pressing, it has been decided to issue the directory forthwith, though verification on all points had not yet been possible.
