RA|NEY GIVEN AID IN
WAR ON STEEL TRUST
Secretaries of Navy and
State Admit Furnishing
Plans to Argentina.

Washington. d. c., April e--Furthei
ammunition for use in his attacks on
the steel trust was furnished yester-
day to Representative Rainey of I'LL
nois by the Secretary of the Navy and
the Secretary of State, in response to
the La Toilette resolution calling on
the two departments for information
as to whether or not the Argentine
Reptile is getting secrets of battle
ship construction from this government.
The reports of Secretary Meyer and
Secretary Knox admit that at the re-
quest of the Bethlehem Steel Company
which secured the contract for build
ing two Argentine battle ships, the
Navy Department had decided to turn
over for use in these vessels plans of
the fire control system used on Ameri-
can warships.
Representative Rainey has already
charged the steel trust with palming
off defective armor plate on the Ameri-
can government. One of the things
the Democratic House is expected to do
is to order thorough investigation of
these alleged frauds. 1t is understood
that Representative Rainey will use
the material sent to the Senate yester-
day to show that the steel trust is serv-
ing two masters.

Some Steel News

The revival of business in the pig
iron industry has started in earnest
Yesterdays statement of the country's
production OF iron for March fully
realized the anticipation of a more
favorable exhibit. Not only did the
average daily output for the month
exceed that of February by 6,494 tons,
but the daily rate of production for
the latter part of March was better
than for the month as whole-a fact
which tended to dispel the notion that
falling off in trade had occurred.
The sharp increase in production ~
due entirely to the large activity of
the stel works" says the Iron Age in
its issue today. commenting on the
March pig iron statistics. The output
of coke and anthracite iron last month
was 2,1ss161 gross tons, or 1856 tons
a day. against $4,000 a day in Febru-
airy There was net gain of nine in
furnaces active, all contributed. as Ia
February, by the steel company. The
steel works furnaces produced 1920
tons a day in March. a gain OF 6,621
over February, while merchant. furn-
aces produced 21,s16 a day, loss of
125 tons.
THE daily caacity of the 2s1 furn-
aces in blast April l was 70.752 tons.
against 66,562 a day for 222 furnaces
on March 1. Production is now at the
rate of $3.50. 900 tons a year, includ-
ing charcoal iron
Significant in connection with this
large increase in production is the
fact that since February ! pig iron
stocks at furnaces in the Ohio. West
ern Pennsylvania and Wheeling dis
tricts have been reduced $1,000 tons.
$4,000 tons of this being since March
