The second concrete fishing vessel to be built here in recent months slid down the ways today at the hands of the Palestine Concrete Shipbuilding Co. It was named “Jonah.”
The builder of the ship is a Serbian Jew named Kretner, whose war-time building program includes twenty-five such trawlers, in order to make Palestine self-sufficient as regards the supply of fish.
