Private Financing
Of Defense Drive
Is Advocated
Denton Issues PIeu
For Representation
On Commission
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated PreSS.
PITTSBURGH, Aug. Ala plea
for appointment of a member to
the National Defense Advisory
Commission to supervise finance and
keep private, rather than Govern
ment, capital flowing into vital in
dustries, was made today in a state
ment by Frank R. Denton. president
of the Mellon Securities Corp.
Coupled with the plea was an as
sertion by the head of the securities
sales unit of the billion-dollar Mel
lon banking empire that under the
present setup private investment
capital sis stymied and radicals are
given the opportunity to demand
more Government credit and even
tually, the CONSUMPTION of capital"
when this comes" said Denton,
the Government becomes Overseer
of industry, both employers and en-
ployes. and we have taken a short
cut to national socialism"
Denton asserted Americas indus
trial system "can build ornaments
with any government in the world
If given the opportunity, but that
industry can't produce and invest
ment capital can't flow into peace
time or emergency expansions if
Government spends more time de-
vising hobbies than it does trying to
encourage business initiative"

OF Steel Orders

indicates Shift to
Arms Needs
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Aug. 21.-Steel orders
for national defense needs are slowly
but steadily increasing, although
tonnages thus far are not significant,
Iron Age reported today in a weekly
survey.

which normally are not consumers
of steel in any quantity are now
entering the market for that metal,
development which indicates the
Nations defense program is making
some progress. however slow, and
that plants making peace time prod
ucts are gradually changing over to
defense products.
Operations in the country's steel
plants this week climbed point to
905 per cent of capacity.
I'm virtually all districts steel
producers are attempting to reach
higher operating levels
Steel buying the past week turned
slightly upward, adding to back-logs
which are topheavy for some prod
ucts, but orders placed so far IN
August are running well behind the
volume placed during the CORE
spending period of July.
Some of the improvement in steel
specification seen in the last few
days is coming from Detroit where
automobile production is advancing
sharply with output of complete cars
started by Plymouth. Another
factor in the improvement is export
purchases from Great Britain.
Efforts to poem another defense
bottleneck were being made this
week in a move to have Congress
pass legislation enabling the Govern
ment to take over foreign-Owned
machine tools which, because of re-
strictions against their expectation,
are being held at the docks or in
the hands OF American manufac-
turers. A substantial part of such
machine tools required for defense
needs is said to be those manufac-
tured for Russia
