N. GAITHER, FRANK T. HUNTER, President. ‘Vice President. Seattle Concern Which Man- ufactures Marine Machin- ery Has Amazing Growth Typifying the marvelous growth of Se attle’s industries is the rapid stride that bas been made by ‘he Pacific Machine Shop & Mfg. Co,, occupying four acres of waterfront property on the Duwamish Waterway, plants of its kind on the Pacific Coast Starting in 1914 in a small shop in the waterfront across from Pier §, with a few small tools and engaged on repair work for small fishing vessels, this concern, during a relatively short time, has twice moved into larger quarters and ts now situated in a big modern plant, complete ly fitted with uptodate machine tools, traveling cranes, etc, and an organiza tion made up of some of the best known engineers and marine men in this section of the country. Allan Cunningham, for many identified with repair work and marine engineering on the Pacific Coast and Scot land, is the President and General Mana ger, George E. Swett, formerly with the General Electric Co, and a well-known electrical engineer, is Assistant Manager While still looking after @ great amount of repair and installation work on large steel and wood vessels, the principal. vo! ume of business comes from the manu facture and sale of auxiliary machinery for Steamships, Motorships, Barges and Sailing Vessels, euch as Steam and Elec tric Anchor Windlasses, Cargo Winches, Capstans, Hand, Steam and Electric Steering Gears, Steering Telemotors of the well known McTaggartSeott design for which this company holds the Amer ican license. and now one of the largest years During the period of the war this com pany converted its plant to suit the re quirements of the Emergency Fieet Cor poration and large quantities of auxiliary machinery and shafting were furnished to steel and wood ships built in this dis: trict and now sailing the Seven Seas. Noteworthy among the achievements of this enterprising institution has been the development of a full line of auxiliaries Griven by electric motors, primarily in- tended for motorships having crude oi! burning main engines and to obviate the necessity of carrying a donkey boller on board to provide steam for the auxiliaries. After a few installations had been made it developed that not only did the Elec, trie Auxiliaries do all that steam had previously done, but that cargo could be handled with greater dispatch, due to the perfect control and operating costs. proved to be very much less, and from the standpoint of the crew and the own- ers, the Electric Auxiliaries were mucn io be preferred. These factors and the in herent economy of full Diese! type oll engines are the underlying principles of motorships to which the big shipping people of this country and abroad are giving their attention at this time. It is the firm belief of the officials of this company, avho have given a great deal of their time and study to these problems, that the future American Mer- chant Marine to be owned by Americans and operated by Americans, which we must have to develop and maintain our foreign trade relations, must severely suffer, unless some concerted action is im- mediately taken by American interests to build motorships that will successfully compete with steamstups and motorships of foreign register.
