DECLINE
ENDS AFTER
3 WEEKS

NEW YORK, March 6 G.N.S).
The decline in steel production
has been checked after three
weeks of sagging, with current
operations holding unchanged at
48h per cent of capacity, the
Iron Age summary disclosed to-
day. Gains at Chicago and in
the Philadelphia district have
been offset by recessions in the
valleys, at Buffalo. and at De-
troit.
A drop of so cents a ton on
heavy melting steel at Philadel-
phia has reduced the Iron Age
scrap composite from $11.67 to
$11.50 a gross ton.
The Iron Age composite for pig
iron and finished steel are un-
changed at $17.90 a ton and
2.124 cents a pound, respectively.

You a demonstrate this point

see that In looking at a point on

nj the same point. In other
words, the difference between
your chin and eyes is SO small
that Il cannot prevent you from
seeing the ball when you point
your chin at some spot on the

Proper pointing Of the chin Is
