the Scarcity of Pipe

NJ r. Moore Of the Frick Reid Sup
ply company is here from Pittsburg
and says that the supply is only some
thing like 10 or 20 per cent normal
ana shipments are coming with al
most the same regularity that pre-
vailed SIX months ago.
"rhc supply is cut down." says Mr..
Moore. "only because of car shortages
and because some of the men refused
to work over three or four days in the
week as wages are so high as to invite
laZiucss. There is no way of firing
them as they can get "A job anywhere
these days. lntl the time comes
when the government needs the steel
ana takes control of the raw material
there should be no great advance in
price"
"Thc 90 per cent advance in pipe
quoted here did not apply to pipe
used In the oil field, but to builders
supplies only"
Speaking on the same subject John
Markham jr, just back from Wash
iugton, says, 81 explained to the GOV
cinment the great difficulty I'm get
ting pipe and tho added expense for
same and i'm fact for all materiiis
used in drilling and It was the cOnsen-
sus of opinion that oil men should
get a better price for oil, but that for
the present there would be no change.
That is to say unless the tremendous
demand brought it about automaticul-

to take over all the available steel
