Bond Averages
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, Sept. 11.-Bonds
tilted higher with a gently rising
stock market today.
Rail loans were among the leaders,
and up fractions to l or more near
noon were Allegheny SIS of 49 and
SIS of so, stamped; Erie IS of rs,
Illinois Central 424, Missouri Pacific
IS of II IF" and Pennsylvania gen.
eral AIS of IS. Selected industrials
and utilities also advanced.
A shade ahead in the foreign dol
lar division were Canadian 4s of go,
Australian 5s of '55, Belgium 612s
of 49, and Norwegian 4s of SO. A
little lower were German Is OF 49
and Japanese 612s.
Traders said the war news con-
tinued the chief factor in market
sentiment. Volume of transactions
was not large, rejecting continued
caution among most investors with
idle cash.
Aiding slightly higher prices, deal
ers held, were overnight reports Of
the British air raids on Berlin,
viewed as an offset to heavy German
bombing of London.
United States Government issues,
sparsely traded, held an even course,
with price changes small.
The list suffered a mild sinking
spell in the final hour when stocks
backtracked, but it was not suf-
flcient to altar the generally higher
trend. A feature in the last hour
was runup of 3l4 points in French
stamped 712s to 6314.

Forecast on Basis
Of August Rate
Production of 81, ,000, 900
Net Tons Possible as
Defense Work Grows
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Sept. 11.-Iron Age
forecast today 1910 steel production
would exceed 64,OO0,OOO net tons, a
record high, if output over the re-
mainder of the year equals the Au-
gust rate. S.
The present record of 62,132,445
tons, exclusive of electric and cru
chile steel, was set in 1929. ==
Pig iron output, the steel maga-
zine continued, might exceed 49,
100000 tons of coke iron, or the
second highest on record, if con-
tinued at the August rate. The 1899
total was 47,159,744 tons. .-
Defense Jobs Push Work.
Notwithstanding a slight mod
GRAFTON in the aggregate volume Of
incoming steel business since the
first of the month" the review said,
"as compared with August, steel
production this week, estimated at
925 per cent of capacity, is a full
point above the pre-holiday rate
and 10.5 points above last week.
National defense requirements
are spreading in total volume and in
the number of products affected.
The flve-billion- dollar defense ap-
preparation, which was immediately
followed by the placing of contracts
for 200 war vessels of various types.
will call for $4,000 tons of plain
steel for these ships, deliveries Of
which. however, will be spread over
a number of years. The Navy's re-
quirements will keep armor plants
busy for at least five years.
Tin Plate Operations.
Manufacturers engaged in nom
military work are becoming i'm
pressed by the longer deliveries
which mills are now quoting on a
number Of products and, accord
ingly, are maintaining their steel
inventories at an average of about
80 days. On those products which
are in greatest demand deliveries
range from five to six weeks to two
months.
'Lightest demand is for tin plate
and operations have declined this
week to A per cent. -.r
The continued high rate of ao-
tivity in steel has boosted scrap
prices further. The Iron Age scrap
composite has this week regained
the years previous high of 1882,
which was recorded in June"
