In the face Of booming steel

of steel products.
With the steel industry operat-

later as the demand for steel has
spurted since the European war,
the price policy for the final quar-
ter of the year had been awaited
with interest by business.
In the announcement by Car

reaffirmed on hot rolled carbon

behind the Siegfried line
The Maginot line consists of a
continuous band of Notifications
from tho channel to the Swiss
frontier. The Siegfried line is not
continuous but is deeper.
The two defense lines show the
difference in defense tactics. The
French still are using the Foch de-
fense theories-hold the lines in
tact by generating greater fire than
the enemy and 5y that superior fire
repulse all frontal attacks.
German tactics appear to be bas-
ed on a new theory Of obligins
the attacking enemy to wear HIM
self out against successive waves
Of fortified positions, affording con-
stant enfilading fire. and then
when the enemy has fought his way
through the fortified zone he finds
faced with an overwhelm-
ing force of fresh troops, who i'm
take advantage of his
weariness to counter ATTACK.

Warfare theories
Differ Greatly

PARIS. Sept. Is. The
German general staff has changed
lis offensive tactics since the World
war, study Of fortnights oper-
ations in Poland showed today.
The change has resulted chiefly
because OF the er-mechanization
Of infantry, cavalry and artillery
and the increased offensive role
oi aviation.
But many military experts doubt
the wisdom of tactics based on CO.
ing as far and as fast as possible
to disrupt the enemys forces with
out mopping up precautions.
French offensive tactics were
shown in the battle OF The Saar to
be a modernized version of World
war theory-mop up and consoli-
cate territory as you advance. In
al local operations thus far the
French have prepared the advance
Of tanks and infantry by intense
artillery barrage - exactly as in
l9i4--and then when the terrain
mas been won it has been consoli-
dated Immediately by stringing wire
and planting steel rails in con-
crete to impede enemy tank at
tacks.
Another contrast in the theories
Of the French British and German
general staffs was shown today in
reports that the Germans have
moved up 100000 troops Is miles
