U. S. Overseas Construction in 1942
Washington, Feb. 15.Overseas construction in 1942 totaled approximately $2 billion, the War Production Board disclosed.
The construction program included camps, fortifications, harbor installations, storage facilities, repair shops, airfields and other facilities needed to service the American expeditionary forces.
However, the total does not include the cost of maintenance and subsistence of troops engaged in construction work or costs of shipping materials that could not be provided locally.
WPB also reported many thousands of tons of merchant shipping were freed for transporting food and munitions by finding construction material abroad for these projects. In addition, by hunting out materials, overseas work on the projects was also speeded up.
