By CLARENCE TYAU Walter Rodenhurst, a member of the low-eleventh class of the Kamehameha School for Boys, spoke on the importance of welding at a recent assembly. He asserted that the value of welding was not fully appreciated untii it was used extensively today. It is used 'more Ihan before in the construction of tanks, airplanes trucks, and many othēr types of vital equipment used by o"ur armed forces.

Seventy five per cent of all tiie civilian steel construction hcre in the island is being; erected by electric wclding. Also 95 per cent of the Navy's sffip repair work is done in this manner. The repairof battleships, cruisers, carriers, destroyers, Liberty hips aud tankers that eome to port with big hole in thei hulls are ropaired by welding. Riveting takes too long and the rivets do not stand mueh presfure before they beeome loosened.

Gas welding by the oxy-acety-lene process is used for many purposes in the maintenajice of machinery and ōther metal. In the airplane industry this type of welding is used to a gTeat extent, and also for cutting steel pkvtes and vvTeckmg steel structures.
