III. Stocke

At ita meeting o! Septmber JO, 1943, the Protocol Comadttee reviewed the ~cOillldttee on Supplies ' report on the stock situation. This report shond avai.l.ebWtiu o! approximate~ 935,000 3hort tons, packed !or ahi,-nt. This total excludea !ooda and petrolewu, It was stated that the steel stocke had been reduced ! r om 600, 000 short tons at the end o! !Jay to 378,000 short tons at the end of August and that production scheclul.ea are beil1g developed o! such a llm1ted nature that the stocks should be reduced to 255,000 short tone by the end o! December, stocks o! noD-ferrous I!IAital.e have already pr<n''ld inadequate and steps are beil1g taken to speed deliveries, Chemical reeerves are beil1g kept to an anticipated 9(Hia.y shipping requi.r81!1A1nt.

The Protocol COillldttae received the SUbcommittee ' s recOJlllllendation that t he stocks were not too large in view o! the fact that tht1 represent all supplies between manufacturer and open water; shipping h&a been proceeding at a rate in ~ case o! that anticipated in the Protocol; inland transportation delqa ill supplying vessels on both coasts requires greater reaerves, and sudden shifts ill Soviet shipping priorities can be met prope.r~ onl,y if considerable reserves are held avaU.­able.

• #tf 3 vious records . We cleared n grand total of 503, 617 long tons, of

\drlch 313,036 long tons moved through the West Coast . This accomplish-

ment on the \'lest Coast was due to the numbe r of ships !)resenting as

well as the f act t hat ther e Ylere quite a few l a rge ships in the list .

Unfortunat ely, the prospects on the West Coast for October are not so

f avor able because ther e is currently a lack of balance in the shi p

positions , a much l arger number being in Soviet ports or en route there-

to than in American ports or homeward bound to the United States .

We recently made an analysis of tnc t urnaronnde of the Liberty

ships employed in this route to see if t hey could not be speeded up .

'nle survey sho~·ed the average tumaronnd was 99 days , made up as

foilO'I'iS:

Time spent in the United States loading and repairing

Time from sailing to arrival in the Petropavlovsk­Nagaevo-Nikolaevsk area

'Iba reason for thie 1a due to a number of factors vihich we havo com­

mented upon in previous reports. But the point tre .. ant to emphaei:te

now is that thie time factor will probabl.1 increase with 111.nter approa ch­

ing due to the added operational handic:ape incident thereto. For this

reason lo"t believe that during the winter l!lOnths soce reduction in the

nunber of vessels employed should be eeriously considered, to the end

that the unite remAining may be operated with greater ef ficiency and the

surplus ships rnD.y be employed elael'ihere,

Fortunatel1 for all v;e have juet received e.dvices fn:a Lo.ndon

that the northern route Ydll be reiiU.':Ied in llove<Dber. Presont plana cell.

for a monthly cycle lllld for approxi.alatcly ):) to 35 ahipa in each convoy.

For the first one the War Shipping Administration i s loading in the

United States ten dry cargo ships and one t anker carrying alcohol (see

Exhibit A), and in Engl.and five dry cargo ships. 'l'"ne Briti sh are .t'ur­

nishing the bllla.nce. 'nle r..s.A. ships loading in &gland will lift

part of t he cargo ldtich was lett over front thet discharged by the ~ dry

cargo ships diverted to the United Kingdont from North Russia l aet spring .

It is expected that the amount of cargo v;e vdll clear thro~h tho northern

route will offset any deficiency occuring ciuring the v.1.nter contha in our

Far Eaet operations and t hat the coobined total of all three routes will

enable ua to tult1ll our protocol requiremente.

On the Persian Oul! route ;;e exceeded our protocol commitment.

Twenty- six Soviet Aid ships and t110 P.G. S.C. ships seiled during the

month carryins a t otal of 190,581 long tons of cargo for the U.S.S.R.

(See Exhibit B) In addition, these ehipa carried 10, 004 long tons for

the P.G.s.c. and 4,086 long ton• for the &hrein petrol8W11 project.

Of the 28 Soviet Aid and P.o. s. C. ships, 25 were routed through

the ILediterranean. Several. of the lledittrranean convoys have been

attacked. One, and perhaps two, of the ships sailing thia month have been

seriously damaged.

The Britieh sailed one Soviet Aid ship ft'O!n the United Kingdom in

September and have sailed four more in October, thus building up uid to

Russia through the Persian Gulf.

Soviet and P. G.S. C. cargo discharged in the Penian Gulf in

Sept=ber total.ed 172,~ long tons. The baeldog in ships at the md of

the month ><as 85,000 long tons, of 11i\ich approximately 35,000 lo~ tons

consisted of cargo in ahipo arriving in the l ast three days in September.

The bacldog ie therefore at approximately a nonn.al working level. Although

there has been some delay to ahippin& on account of waiting i or berths, a

large aaount of this can be attributed to the illposaibility of scheduling

arrivals exactly to meet available apacea. A firth berth has been coo-

pleted at Bander Shapur. It is expected that during the recainder of this

year the discharging capacity will be sufficient to handle tho expect ed

tonnage without cauaing congestion, nnd that it wiD. exceed inland clear-

ance capacity by a emall margin.

We expect to sail in October approxii!Ltel.:y the same nu.-;ber of

Soviet ahips and P. G. S. C. ships e.a in September. (See Exhibit C) We

ahould therefore aaain exceed our protocol ccxnmi tment. In addition, t110

steel previously stockpiled there.

S1nce our last report, we have delivered one more t anker to

the Russians for operation in the Pacific, the S. C.T. Dodd. We have

also been successful in having the Navy make available to the Russians

the icebreaker North !i\nd. This icebr eaker 1a expectod to be ready for

delive17 Deccaber first and should be of great value to the Russians

1n matever employment they select because of her po1.er Md modern

design.
