STEEL PRODUCTION
BEATS '29 RECORD
(By Associated Pressl

NEW YORK, Dec. 23.-Quick-
ened by the heavy demand-for
both national defense and peace
time needs-Steel production for
1910 is expected to have totalled
66,500,000 net tons, the biggest
tonnage output for any year in
history.
Production in 1893 aggregated
$685., 900 tons. and in 1929, the
previous record year, 61,432,0O0
tons.
Mills this year have been op-
Grating at or above 80 percent of
capacity since July 29. except for
holiday Slow-ups.
In 1929 steel plants for a time
operated at 100 percent of ca
pacity, but the industry's produc-
ing facilities then were a good
deal smaller than today. That is
why tonnage output this year is
topping 1925, despite the fact
that 100 percent operating rate
for the industry as a whole has
not been attained.
Continued brisk operations are
expected well into the spring of
1941, If not longer.

Plan To Push Work On
Everglades Natl Park
Especial to The Citiren)

WASHINGTON, Dec. 23.-Ac-
ton on the proposed Everglades
National Park area is anticipated
soon after the first of the year
by informed quarters here, it was
learned today.
Reasons given for the belief
that the much-discussed and
long proposed park may actually
start to become a reality in Janu-
ary center around the new Flor
ida state administration which
will soon take office
Park Service surveys of the
Everglades area have been COM
pleted and the federal govern
ment has indicated frequently its
willingness to take over the area
for national park purposes.
Under legislation authorizing
creation of national parks, how
ever. the federal government is
prohibited from purchasing land.
All land for such areas must be
donated.
In the case of the Everglades
project. the National Park Serv-
ice has reduced to a minimum
the amount of land which it con-
siders essential to establishment
of the park The only thing
which has prevented further ac-
ton on the area is the fact that
the state has not provided the
land.
The incoming administration, it
is understood. is on record as
favOring state acquisition of land
for the park and if this is done,
Park Service officials indicate
that they will 60 to work on the
project Immediately.
