Rivet Drive Record Sparks American Rivalry at Shipyards
At Northwest Steel in Portland Oregon a crew riveted 4089 shvets in ten hours setting a US record but Sparrow Point Bethlehem Steel matched the same day with 4875 rivets in the same period. The record is noted as the British pace before the American effort surpassed it with a crew of steady black workers.
