mon ground on which the administra-
ton can meet with the steel industry
and obtain rails at a price below that Of
$4b and SAT a ton. the price being fixed
by agreement between the Industrial
Board and the industry.
The Director-General has been de-
clared to hold the opinion that the steel
manufacturers should be willing to ac-
cept a material loss on their products

railroad representatives to-day gave fig-
ures relating to the alleged profits Of
the industry during the last few years
