Los Angeles Shipbuilding and Drydock Company : ウィキペディア英語版
Todd Pacific Shipyards, Los Angeles Division

Todd Pacific Shipyards, Los Angeles Division was the last corporate name for a shipyard that was located in San Pedro, Los Angeles, California. The shipyard was formerly named Los Angeles Shipbuilding & Dry Dock Company and Todd Shipyards, Los Angeles Division. Under those three names, the San Pedro yard built at least 130 ships from 1917 to 1989.〔
The yard opened during the World War I shipping boom, survived bankruptcy in the Great Depression and built Auxiliary ships during World War II. The yard was seized by the Navy in late 1943 and given to Todd Shipyards to manage for the remainder of the war. The yard struggled through the post war period and surged again with commercial work in the 1960s to mid-1970s. The yard peaked again in 1983 during a Navy frigate contract, but was closed in 1989 after failing to secure a DDG-51 contract. The former site was a container terminal in 2015.
== Los Angeles Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company (1917–1943) ==
The Los Angeles Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company was founded in April 1917 for the purpose of establishing a shipbuilding and repair facility in Los Angeles Harbor during World War I with Fred L. Baker as president. of marsh land on Smiths Island were used for the original construction. The yard received 35 contracts to build cargo ships for the Emergency Fleet Corporation (EFC) of the United States Shipping Board. 30 of the ships were to be 8,800 DWT Design 1013 ships and 5 were 11,500 DWT. The first keel was laid 23 July 1917 for SS ''Accomac''. By 1920, the yard had a 12,000 ton floating dry dock, which cost $1.25 million ($ today) to build. The first four freighters were delivered in July 1918 and another four were delivered before the war ended.
Delivered in November 1921, SS ''West Chopaka'' was the 35th and final ship built for the US Shipping Board at San Pedro. In total, the contracts cost $72 million ($ today) for around 320,000 DWT of cargo freighters.
Around 5 May 1919, 6,000 workers at Los Angeles SB&DDC went on strike after demands for a closed shop were not met. On 31 May 1919, federal mediation was sought with mediator Captain Charles T. Connell listed as a potential mediator. The yard was reopened on 10 July 1919, without resolving the dispute, Many of the workers did not return and had found other work elsewhere. Around 70 of the 6,000 returned in the first days with about 1,500 back by the end of July 1919.
For the remainder of the 1920s, after the US Shipping Board projects finished, Los Angeles SB&DDC built a number of tank barges. Additionally, the yard built in 1924 and in 1925, Los Angeles City #2 fireboat, which later was known as ''Ralph J. Scott''.〔
Los Angeles SB&DDC mainly did ship repairs in the 1930s until the yard received Navy contracts for several auxiliary ships in the lead up to World War II. By the time the war broke out, management had changed a number of times at the yard. Los Angeles SB&DDC had entered bankruptcy during the Great Depression and several corporate reorganizations resulted in several changes in management. The original shareholders of Los Angeles SB&DDC were also frozen out by a Supreme Court decision that gave precedence to bondholders over the shareholders. Los Angeles SB&DDC had become a wholly owned subsidiary of Los Angeles Lumber Products, which was a party in ''Case v. Los Angeles Lumber Products''. That case was decided in 1939 and became a landmark decision in corporate bankruptcy law.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Case v. Los Angeles Lumber Products Co., Ltd. 308 U.S. 106 (1939) )
In the 1930s, the yard made some attempts to get oil tanker contracts and a Navy destroyer contract, but lost bids to east coast shipyards. Beginning 14 November 1936, there was an 87-day labor strike by 500 workers at several Los Angeles area yards, including Los Angeles SB&DDC. The strike ended 9 February 1937 with a $.06 raise, making the top hourly rate $0.95 an hour.
