New York, June 7.--The rapid re- cession in the steel industry is shown in drop of 2i per cent in steel ingot production in May, according to sta tistics compiled by the American Iron x Steel institute. This follows a de crease of about 19 per cent in the preceding months. The May output was approximately 2.62S,26t tons for 27 working days against 3,3S3,5S5 for 26 days in April and 4,21s,S55 for s7 days in May 1923. For the five months of 1924 the estimated output of ingots was 17,592,562 tons against 1853, 709 In the same period last year. The daily production of 97,s43 tons in May was the lowest recorded since February 1922. Finished steel, how ever, is being made about 70 per cent faster than steel ingots, due to a de sire to use up large accumulation of semi-finished steel produced earlier in the year.
