BUILT IN LAND PLANTS FASTER CONSTRUCTION (British Official Wireless.) (10 a.m.) RUGBY, Sept. 28. In the shipbuilding world increasing attention is being paid to prefabrication, writes a labour correspondent. In order to expedite the output, of new tonnage, this method of ship production is being more and more resorted to. The material is supplied to firms outside the shipbuilding industry. The ships are built to standard designs and almost entirely constructed in land factories hundreds of miles from the sea.
