Cost of Armor Plate Seen as High by Government
Secretary Herbert reports to Congress on armor plate costs after studying Carnegie and Bethlehem plants. He finds material and labor cost about 198.70 per ton, with maintenance and other charges pushing net cost near 400 per ton, urging price limits and possible government-provided plants to secure lower costs and steady supply. Both companies urge selling to government. Herbert criticizes their depreciation and working capital claims and proposes a fair 60 percent profit on production plus nickel costs, with potential government control if prices are fixed.
