Is EXPECTED
PRESIDENT OF AMERICAN
STEEL INSTITUTE SAYS
THERE'S NO SOUND BASIS
FOR SHORTAGE
tnr Assaclnira prersl

CHICAGO, July Walter S.
Tower, president of the Ameri-
can Iron and Steel Institute, de-
clares there is no sound factual
basis for expecting a shortage
of steel supply for any essential
use".
He said if any acute condition
was to be expected. it was close
at hand because of the coinci-
dent of pressing demands for
early delivery.
Like a river in flood, that
sort Of demand rises rapidly to
the crest, but it does not rise for
ever, Tower said in an address
prepared for delivery to the 10Th
annual meeting of the purchases
and stores division of the Asso-
citation of American Railroads.
Shortage Could BE Met
Any real shortage of steel for
non-military uses, he said, seems
both unlikely and unnecessary,
but if it should come ii could be
dealt with by rationing or cur
failing the more dispensable uses
and by program of wholesale
expansion. Tower drew this pic
ture of steel demand and sup
ply.
Rated steelmaking capacity
today is more than $4,000, 900 net
tons of ingots in a year and next
year will be substantially more.
The actual output for the first
half of 1871 has been at the rate
of about 100000 tons.
For 1912, the current estimate
for the American program is a
little larger than this year, but
the British need next year. still
uncertain. is hardly likely to ex-
pand very much.
