CLEVELAND, Ohio. Oct. % LP).-
Steelworks operations shot up an
other half point TO 95lz per cent Of
capacity last week for the highest
since June. 1929, when the figure
was 96l2, the magazine Steel said
today. The 1889 peak was "a per
cent in early December.
The magazine said the continued
rise in operations is due largely to
stepping up the pace at the Bes-
semer converters and electric fur
naces. Many units now working
had been regarded as at least
semi-obsolete.
New orders continue heavy and
it is apparent that october sales
have been the best Of the year De-
liveries have become further eX-
tended and on some shape descrip-
tons February is the earliest date
obtainable. In alloy steel frequently
no delivery date can be promised.
Priorities Discussed.
Increasing talk Of priorities and
the recent forme ton of the Priority
Board in WASHINGTON are bringing
in specifications at slightly higher
rate than shipments. Large orders
are being placed again-t the 100000
tons of l55 and los millimeter shells
awarded by the Army earlier in the
month.
Shapes and bars still lead the
current demand, with wide plates
close behind.
Perhaps the best percentage i'm
provement in sales is in light steel
Plates from small producers carry
the promptest delivery, at three
weeks, and hot-rolled sheets in some
cases are the only major product
in which deliveries are not length
ened.
Exports of iron and steel scrap in
September were 251,116 tons. against
346,087 in August, with shipments
decreasing to all principal coun-
tries except Japan.
The three groups of composite
prices are unchanged: Iron and
steel at s38.07. finished steel at
$500 and steelworks scrap at S20.54
Tin Plate Output Up.
Tin plate production has gained
2 points to A per cent of capacity
and is still going up.
Contributing to the 951a per cent
steel rate were gains in six dis
tricts, declines in two and I'M
changed figures in four.
Cincinnati went up points to
"a per cent. Detroit l to 81, Youngs-
town to 81, New England 5 to 80,
Pittsburgh to 80 and Cleveland
Al to 90. Wheeling dropped Az to
s31a and Chicago l to 98. The fol-
lowing were unchanged Birming-
nam, 81; st. Louis, 821a; Buffalo,
901a, and Eastern Pennsylvania, 90.
