Rockwell Publishes

New Cast Steel

Valve Catalog

A new catalog describing Rock- well Edward cast steel gate, globe, angle, and check valves is now available from the Flow Control

Division.

Covering high-pressure, high- temperature valves for power, process, and general industries, the catalog reviews product de- sign, development, and testing. It contains cutaway illustrations, di- mensions, pressure-temperature ratings, and other data in stand- ard and metric notation. For eas- ier reference, the valves have been grouped into three sections: stop valves, stop-check valves, and check valves. Of special in- terest is the new section on Rock- well gas/hydraulic valve actua- tors for large, fast-closing valves for main steam and feedwater services. Cast steel valves are available in sizes 2y2 through 32 inches for all popular ANSI classes.

MarAd Awards CDS For

Mormac Conversions To

Cost $4.4 Million Total

The Maritime Subsidy Board has authorized the award of con- struction-differential subsidy (CDS) for work by Maryland

Shipbuilding and Drydock Com- pany of Baltimore to increase the container-carrying capacity of four Mariner Class vessels owned by Moore McCormack Lines of

New York. The cost of the work is to be $1,105,087 per vessel, with the subsidy rate set at 40.82 percent.

The ships are the Mormacsaga,

Mormacsea, Mormactide, and Mor- macwave. The conversion work will allow the carriage of 40-foot containers, and increase the total container capacity for each ship from 140 to 206 twenty-foot equivalent units.

The subsidy rate was based on a finding that Japan was the ap- propriate foreign shipbuilding center for subsidy computations, and that the price for the work in Japan would be $654,000 per vessel.
