STEEL TRADE UPSET
BY ATTITUDE OF U. S.
Interests Unable to Move Until
Price-FiXing and Embargo
Issues Are Settled
NEW YORK July Il.

'NEN lOlNN July Is,
The Government situation Is still the lead
ing factor in the steel market. Some trade
interests believe that the settlement reached
in Washington by the steel committee and
the Government officials has so many
Tamiheations that the actual effect will not
be known for some time, and to say there
Is much uncertainty In the trade Is putting
il mildly. II is expected aow that the
Government will take on an average Of
40 per cent Of the output Of steel in this
country on some products a larger per-
centage is likely, and Il Is not difficult to
find interests in the plate trade who figure
that approximately SO per cent Of the
output OF that product viii go to the Cow
ernment,
The reduction in the untitled orders re,
ported by the United States Steel Corpor-
alton and the Lackawanna steel Company
this week Is passing almost unnoticed
Steel mills are still in a congested condition
despite the falling off In output, and the
storage places and yards of the plants are
clogged with finished products There has
been only a slight Improvement In the car
situation, although published reports have
led 10 belief to the contrary recently
Some Of the best trade authorities believe
that the embargo on exports will become
one Of the leading factors later on. They
point out that II might lead TO reselling
OF steel already contracted for for ship
ment abroad, but IN this connection it is
maintained by others that the favored de-
liveries 20 be given the Government on its
requirements win eliminate the possibility
Of resales.
Inquiries are In the market for large
quantities Of tin plate for shipment to
Europe, Italy is showing the way in this
branch OF trade, having asked for quota
tions OF more than 100000 boxes in addi-
tion TO the 10000 boxes already purchased.
Other foreign inquiries bring thu total
70 something over 100000 boxes.
