PLAN PRICE FIXING
FOR TIN AND BARS

Fixing Of a price for both sheet
bars and tin plate. at least for the
first half of next year and possibly
for the entire year. by Herbert c
Hoover. food administrator. in the
matter Of tin plate, is among the early
probabilities.
Federal authorities are planning to
fix a tin plate price to which the tin
makers agree, expressing the prefer
ence. though. that 1t be done for the
first half only and that the price Of
sheet bars be named as weIl. 1t is
likely due to the pressure being ex-
erted on the government ~ the tin
plate men that sheet bar ~brice win
be named. Fixing of a tin plate price
with that for sheet bars left TO the
mercy Of market conditions might
prove disastrous TO the tin makers
and it is believed the government viii
see the force Of their argument.
The price the government is said
to have in mind for sheet bars is SEQ
as compared with $3.50 to 1915 for
tin plate per base box. such prices
would allow the tin makers $50 a ton
or better for their operation. The hi
monthly wage settlement. recently
concluded. showed the average tin
plate price to be s775 for the July
August period. Consequently the pro-
posed government tin plate price
would be around the current market
for other than miscellaneous spot de-
liveries and some export shipments.
