MUCH MORE USE
Of Lake Superior Ores in Eastern
Territory Seems Assured

In the judgement of leading
eastern iron ore sellers, the greatest
tonnage of Lake Superior ores in
some years or even in history, bids
fair to be consumed in the Lehigh,
Lebanon and Schuylkill valleys and
other adjacent territories in 1918,
says the Iron Trade Review.
This broadening of Superior ore
consumption in the eastern district,
is expected to result from two con-
ditions; First, from the increased
operations of eastern furnaces,
which promise to begin the new
year more fully engaged than for
several years, and second, from the
partial withdrawal from eastern
Pennsylvania of transatlantic
foreign ores, which will be diverted
to European consumption. At the
new schedule of. prices, Lake SUI
perior -Bessemer ore represents

On the occasion of the 18th
birthday of Andrew Carnegie, the
noted iron master and philan-
throphist made the following state
ment:
Il am a Republican, dyed in the
wool, and hope always to vote
the Republican ticket, but Demo-
cratic president is all right. AS to
those fears that some people talk
about, I just smile at them. I be-
lieve in the reduction of the tariff,
but believe in President Taft S
INSTRUMENTATION on one article
at time. Don't worry about the
tariff. 1t will go downward all
right, but it will be difficult to
make any grave reductions. The
moment they try that, there will be
some 1og-rolling among the states.
Log-rolling is just plain taking.
When started in business this
country did not make pound of
steel. Now this country makes
more than all the other countries
put together. Don't forget to put
that down. Believe me, wouldn't
have gone into the business if l
hadn't been promised 80 per cent
duty. Too many had failed before
me to run any such risks. We
needed protection to start the steel
business. Now it is started, and 1
have favored reduction for years.
Protection is only meant for infant
industries, and it was never intend
ed to keep up protection forever.
Under no condition should the food
of the people be taxed. But as for
1uxuries they should be heavily
taxed"

transatlantic ore that is offered at
the present time which is strickly
competitive with this price. On
offers of 81 cents per unit, tide
water, equivalent to about oH
cents, eastern Pennsylvania, some
tonnage of Spanish ore, a 40 per
cent material, could probably be
obtained. The tonnage of Spanish
ore, however, even at this advanced
price, would be limited.
It is roughly estimated that under
prosperous conditions and practi-
cally full furnace operations, about
100000 tons of lake ore per year
is needed nominally to complete
the mixtures of the furnaces in the
Lehigh, Schuylkill and Lebanon
valleys and in the Harrisburg
district. Ore sellers who have
made careful survey of the pres
ent situation, believe that if present
conditions are maintained both here
and abroad through next year, this
million-ton consumption will be
exceeded by several hundred thous-
and tons. Not all the lake ore
CONSUMED in the east is merchant
ore, since several of the steel COM
! panies have interests in certain
mines. Only two or three COM
panies in all, however, are number
ed in this class.
Representatives of lake ore houses
who have been canvassing the
eastern district for the past 10 days
or two weeks, have made liberal
sales on the new contract basis
against the requirements of eastern
consumers.
