Ships for Ferro- Manganese

The subcommittee on ferro-alloys
of the American Iron and Steel Insti-
tute has succeeded in reaching an
agreement with the United States Ship
ping Board whereby the latter will
allocate sufficient steam vessels for
trips to Brazil to bring $4,000 tons Of
Brazilian manganese ore to this coun-
try monthly. 1t is asserted by prac-
tical steel makers that this action is
the most important that has been taken
in the ferro-alloys situation in months,
for the Brazilian ore is badly needed
here to assure a continued operation
of many steel plants.

Railroad Heads Take It Calmly

A Wall Street broker, now on tour
of the West. writes from Chicago in
this fashion: Strange as it may seem.
there is little or no resentment ex-
pressed among railroad executives who
have officially lost their jobs. They
are, without exception, anxious to do
all in their power to promote the gen.
cral railroad efficiency and at the same
time, as far as possible. emphasize the
strength and traffic of their .s; own lines.
ating contract under government con-
troll shall be settled Railroad men
here expect that most Of a.shs. the presidents ,I
promptly resmployed. Those likely to
be among the missing are the men
whose duties have been chiefly as head
of financial committees, with little care
or knowledge of real operations. Some
of these are already considering posi-
tions in industry. All the Smiths
and Underwoods and Bryams who can
be persuaded to stay will be needed"
