JAP SHIPBUILDER TO
CURTAIL HIS BUSINESS
NAGASAKI, Aug. 16 (by Associated
Press).—The Mitsubishi shipbuilding
and engine works at Nagasaki, one of
the oldest and largest in Japan, has
decided to curtail its business, part
ly owing to the financial depression
and partly on account of general dull
ness in shipbuilding.
As the first step, the establishment
has dispensed with the service of
about 50 engineers and other em
ployes.
Besides the Mitsubishi, many pri
vate shipbuilding and dockyards have
sustained a severe blow through the
financial slump and the general ship
ping and shipbuilding in activity and
have resorted to curtailment of busi
ness.
