simple-they already have

Stage and screen acting
are different in many ways,

CHICAGO, November 13.-Low basic
one-way passenger rates on Western

"In the first eight months of this
year passenger revenues have climbed
nearly 100000 and accounted for
the entire advance in total railroad
revenues in the West"
The rates are cents a mile, first

NEW YORK, November l3.-Plac-
ing steel production at 54 per cent Of
capacity, rise of Ia points; above
last week and the highest since the
first week of February, Iron Age In
its weekly review asserted today that
demand for the metal has expanded in
various consuming channels.
Conforming to the increase In pro-
duction activities, scrap metal prices
have strengthened, lifting the publi-
cations composite from $lz.5S to
$12.75 ton.
Railroad buying is steadily i'm
proving, automotive demand has
shown a further gain, Government
financed construction projects are be-
ing expedited. and finally. the expec-
tation OF higher prices has resulted
In considerable anticipatory covering"
the review declared.
"The recent advance Of 81 a ton on
billets, blooms, slabs and skelp Is pri-
movement to get under cover on nm
ished steel. The approach OF the
year-end inventory period would or
dinarily discourage stocking by con-
sumers, but numerous requests for re-
quirement contracts for the remainder
of the quarter indicate that many in
the trade rate protection against price
advances above other considerations.
Although increased material costs
and the possibility of wage advances
at the mills would seem to make higher
finished steel prices inevitable. definite
moves In that direction are still lack
ing.
The reluctance OF certain mills to
disturb existing quotations Is reflected
in reports that prices of shares. plates,
bars and pipe will remain unchanged,
