Gary, Ind, are declared to be subject
of comment in the trade by "The Iron

however, in this connection adds:
Reports Of preparations for a sec

ers to repeat so soon their heavy sac

Concerning trade activities it is said
that rolling stock orders for the week
included 100 LOGON olives and 1000 cars.
For the latter $4,000 tons of steel have
been. placed. The first rail order for
next year is one for 5000 tons, given
by the Missouri Pacific to Colorado
mill.
"How little effect high prices and
more or less delivery uncertainty have
had on building work." says "Thc Iron

amounted to 95 per cent of the capacity

is the largest months business for two

rate of contracting over eight years of

for constructing industrial plant OK

Talk of recessions in pig iron prices.

appears to be more of rumor than of
fact. Statistics compiled by leading
interests show untitled orders for mer-
