SHORTAGE OF CARS
TAXES STEEL TRADE
Increased Congestion in Yards
Throughout Eastern Sec
ton of Country
NEW YORK March q

NEW YORK, March ..
Reports received by some OF the lead
ing steel companies in this city during
the last week disclose the fact that
there has been some increase in the
congestion which has prevailed in the
yards OF the plants located in the east
ern section of the country. This con-
dition Is due primarily to the inability
of the railroads TO supply sufficient
cars 10 move the finished products, and
as result the storage facilities of the
steel makers are taxed 10 their utmost
II anything, there has been a further
slight falling off In the demand from
domestic consumers, but this is consid-
cred natural in View of the fact that
present fixed prices are to be In effect
only until the end of this month, and
before that time there will be deci-
sion on what quotations for the future
shall be, It might be said In this
connection that the steel statesmen are
not anxious to book much business from
regular channels in the meantime.
Virtually all the interest in the trade
at present attaches to speculation as to
what new prices. IL any. will be an
nounced. II is known that the officials
of the smaller companies are In favor of
a favorable readjustment on many prod
ucts. and that 30 far as plates are con-
cerned virtually all the authorities are
! for recommending a higher figure to the
Government.
The point Is made that in order to
speed up the output OF plates for ship
building a price should be named which
will permit small profit TO all makers.
and there are some interests In the
smaller companies who would favor a
difference In price to the various com.
Danies in accordance with their coat.
