PITrsBURG, Nov. 9.-The iron and steel
trade does not place much dependence
upon the more radical Of the press des-
patches from Washington regarding tho
United States Shi, ping Boards retrench-
ment programme in the matter of ship
building. The ea 'ly reports that many
contracts for wooden ships had been car
celled were accepted without question
and even with favorable comment, as
well as cancellations on number OF
shipyard extensions. All this seemed
natural and proper, for the trade knows
bctter than any other branch OF Industry
that fraction OF the number OF shipways
existing, IL operated efficiently and nj
the speed some yards have shown. could
build all the ships desired and all the
ships for which engines, boilers and
other equipment could be provided. Whe,,
IL comes to asserting, as some Washing
ton dispatches did, that the 1000 ton
vessels contemplated at the Hog leland
yards are useless, that after bunkering
they will have little space for cargo, the
steel trade draws the line. IL such
ships are not valuable as cargo carriers.
then scarcely any ships have been butt
I'D TO date that are worth while. 1t IL
pointed out that the layout at Hog-lsl-
and, by far the greatest yard of all. is
as follows: Twenty ways for building
ships 400 feet long, 1900 tons deadweight
liz knots speed thirty ways for build
ing ships $50 feet long. 5000 tons dead
weight. is knots speed. To abandon two
flfths of the ways in the gres test shipyard
is regarded out OF the question, and it Is
pointed out Furthermore that IL 5000 to-!
ships are good cargo carr!or~ when thei
are provided with engines hrh fuel for -
knots speed vessels Just trjtie smaller,
but provided with engines and fuel for
only liz knots. Sould be more efficient
as cargo carriers, gaining much In that
respect through the sacrifice of speed. 1t
was when ships were being built to run

Industrial Keorsa ni.ation.

The country Is face to face with the
perplexLng problems OF the reconstruc-
ton period, when the work Of extricat-
ing business from a network of war re-
strictions will lead to important changes
in every branch of American industry.
This readjustment Is well under way in
some departments, and the probability
Is that a Government commission will be
soon appointed to formulate a pro-
gramme for carrying on this work along
scientific lines We should have set our
selves to this task months ago. but there
is still time for effective work under wise
leadership, II the urgency OF the situa-
ton is appreciated by those responsible
for initiating important legislation. A
good deal OF preparatory work could be
done by business interests. but these eff
forts would be informal and not compre-
hensiye enough to provide fully for a stu
alton which Is without parallel In trade
or finance. Every branch OF business will
have It's own problem to solve In the re-
adjustment that is ahead, and while
conditions will not be the same In all
cases, many OF the difficulties will be
common to many industries.
Much combustion naturally exists
about the outlook for those industries
which have been PECULIARLY stimulated
Dy war ORDERS. Inc steel trade Is
showing the hesitation which is natural
in a situation where private consumers
hardly know what to do. The Govern
ment Is still the chief buyer OF steel, and
until the cessation of war effort mos;
OF the. great mills will be busily en-
gagged with the completion of Govern.
ment contracts. There Is reason to be-
lieve that the price fixing activities Of
the War Industries Board will be con-
tinued for a time. unless II Is possible
for producers to agree upon a course OF
action which shall promise satisfactory
results. Various other industries have
similar questions TO settle. and II Is diff
cult to see how price restrictions could
be quickly abandoned without adding
to the perplexities OF an oyerwrought
situation There are a thousand ques-
tons OF this kind to settle before the
country's industries have been read
justed to peace basis.

Pipe Mills Catching Up.

The pipe lines mills caught up Il litti-
on their deliveries of standard steel piyo
TO jobbbers last month. carrying over
into November - to so per cont. rs
much tonnage as they carried over from
September into October Jobhers re-
placement orders tlys month are expected
to be particularlyTheavy, October being
normally month of heavy distribution
by toobers on account of the season. but
by the same token in November and De-
cember they are likely to he called upon
to distribute considerably less tonnage.
Accordingly some of the mills are asking
their jobbing customers. in making uD
their requirements nominally to occur
In November, to designate the tounaEes
and the descriptions OF pipe they really
require during the month. allowing other
tonnages to be held back by the mills
without prejudice to the jobbcrs position
In having the material due him. This
procedure is particularly necessary to
the pipe mills by reason OF the restriC-
ton they are under for November and
December as to the manufacture OF pipe
by the butt weld process. Recently the
War Industries Board designated to the
pipe mills the ma ximum tonnage of steel
each would be permitted 10 put into butt
weld pipe during November and Deem
her. the quotas ter resenting about 80 per
cent OF normal fIll production Of pipe
by this process. Thus the mills will
have considerably less butt weld pipe
available this month and next than they
had in September and October,
