Shortage Of Steel |ngots
Slows Alabama Mill
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala, June 21.-
Operation of the sheet mill at the
Fairfield works of the Tennessee
Coal, Iron and Railroad Co., has
been sharply curtailed by a shortage
OF steel ingots, an authoritative
source revealed.
The mill, with rated capacity of
PIT. 900 tons of finished sheets an
nually, employs approximately 1900
men. This informant said its oper-
alton may be cut more than 60 per
cent despite the huge backlog of
orders for sheets.
lngot production, now at 90 per
cent of capacitv, is not sufficient to
supply all the finishing units at the
company'S Fairfield, Ensley and
BeSSemer plants.
1ngot output is limited by the
basic iron production from the COM
panyS eight blast furnaces, one of
which IS down for repairs and en-
largement.
Usually informed cources said the
sheet mill employees would be given
other employment in the company
plants 50 far as possible. T. c. 7.
now has approximately 29,20O on its
pay rolls.

Py the Associated rress

NEW YORK, June 2l.-The
steadily increasing appetite of the
Nations industrial machine and
the consuming public pushed COM
modify prices farther along the
upward trail this week.
Demand for spot supplies was
unusually active all week. The Asso-
ciated Press wholesale price index
of 35 key staples advanced from
BIB to 87.98, the highest level since
mid August, 1887.
Talk of a coming general price
peg had little apparent effect on
most major commodity markets.
Steady buying interest dictated an
upward trend.
Foods were very strong. Butter
reached the highest levels since
1880, while eggs and hogs hit four
year peak. Hogs topped at slO.50
a hundredweight at Chicago, just
double their price a year ago.
Cotton and cotton cloth also
scored big gains, cotton touching
a four-year high. Other advances
in spot markets were posted by
cocoa. lard. corn, rye, cement, rub
Der, turpentine, silk and tin.
Among the few staples showing
declines for the week were flour,
lamb, wheat, oats and wool.
Import commodities were strong,
rising demand and curtailed i'm
ports giving vegetable oils strong
upward push.
Five of six commodity groups
making up the 35-commodity index
reached new highs for the year.
The component groups compared as

BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, June 21.-A big
outpour of buying orders in various
liens of the Missouri Pacific system
gave today's bond market a splash
or color. Business was quiet in the
general run of corporate, Govern
ment and foreign loans.
Motive for broad demand for the
Missouri Pacifics was the Federal
Courts approval late yesterday of
the roads reorganization plan, big
step toward termination of an 8-year
trusteeship for the 10000 mile prop
erty.
It was the second emergence from
bankruptcy by an important rail
system within week, the Federal
Court at Cleveland having earlier
approved the 4,rie's plan of reor-
gdnlZation.

OGDEN, Utah, Aug. 6 CUP) =
TWO youths with spotty record OF
petty crime, have confessed to the
killing of Hayward, Calf, gro
Gerry store owner last week because
he called for help instead OF sub
mitting to robbery, Deputy District
Attorney L. E. Dayton OF Alameda
county, California, said early today.
The boys are Walter Lee, l5, and
Everett Washburn. Is, both of Oak
land, Calf. They were apprehend-
ed here Monday while eating lunch
on the city hall lawn.
Alameda county authorities caus-
ed their detention when Mrs. Emma
Hanna, widow of the dead grocer,
identified a photograph of Lee as
the youth who struck her over the
head with a gun when she shouted
for help.
Imperial Valley press., 1941-08-06
Boys Of IS, 10
Confess Murder

Lees companion. she said, ran
into the back OF the house and shot
William Hanna. "a, in the back rs
he telephoned sheriff's officers. AL
though Mrs. Hanna was unable to
identify photograph of Washburn
as Lees companion, she signed
complaint charging murder against
the pair.
The youths, police here were told,
escaped July 81 from a foster nome
in Forestville, Mendocino county,
where they had been sent as Juve-
nile court wards.
Lee was in trouble with police at
the age of nine when he broke
into a store and stole candy and
school supplies. Four years later he
was arrested for similar petty thefts
and confessed, authorities said, to
stealing from automobiles.
Washburn, records showed, broke
into the Hayward Union high
school in February, 1910, with an
other boy and stole two rifles, later
stealing an automobile.

joying rest and quiet.
Washington official circles heard
reports that Mr.. Roosevelt had
transferred at sea to a fast cruiser
which had taken or was taking
him to a rendezvous with the prime
minister. Like all the other rumors.
this could not be confirmed in any
quarter.
The White House. Secretary OF
State Cordell Hull, and other gov
ernmental quarters in Washington
professed an inability to confirm
or deny the rumors.
In London, official quarters
pointed out that the whereabouts
of the prime minister was a mill
tary secret, and necessarily, be-
cause he would be a choice target
for German bombing planes.
An interesting side light was the
disappearance of Harry Hopkins,
administrator of the lend-lease act
and Mr.. Roosevelt's closest adviser
in aiding Britain. He was last seen
Immediately upon his return to Lon
don from Russia. The American
embassy in London said he was
somewhere in Britain. British
sources said he would be found
where Churchill is
His disappearance coinciding
with the prime minister's inability
to attend an important commons
debate, gave rise to the rumors that
he and Hopkins had or were about
to keep a rendezvous with the pres
ident.
Such a rendezvous could take
place at sea, in Canadian harbor,
in a Canadian port, or, even in
Iceland.

BIo sts
Rus sio

TOKYO, Aug. 6. CUP)-A Japa-
nese navy spokesman said today that
Russia faced internal revolution,
development which could not leave
Japan unconcerned. Another naval
authority said Britain and the
United States were about to en-
circle Japan by enlisting Russia's
aid.
The navy spokesman, Commander
Hideo Hiraide, said in magazine
article that Japan was on the verge
of entering the world upheaval be-
cause of the Russian situation and
predicted that the United States
would ask for bases in eastern Rus
Sia
Assertions that the British and
Americans were using Russia to
complete encirclement of Japan
were made in an article in the
newspaper Hochi written by Lieut..
Commdr. Tota Ishimaru.
Hiraide's articles in a popular
story magazine said that Russia
faced the same fate as the Chinese
government at Chungking, prob
ably resulting in Russian revolt
and establishment of many govern
ments within occupied Russia"
He said that in event of such a
development 80 far as Japan is
concerned she cannot remain un-
concerned"
The United States, while aiding
Russia, undoubtedly will ask for
eastern Russian bases, Hiraide
wrote, thereby greatly threatening
Japan from the rear.
Accordingly, Japan cannot re-
main quiet. Japan is on the thresh-
hold of entering the world upheaval
Enemy countries are making an
effort to discover what Japan plans
to do. So we want the people moi
to stress their opinions and to keep
their mouths shut as much as pos
sible. If the government is silent
it does not mean that it does not
have definite policy. A dog that
barks is weak while quietness is
proof of strength"

Ballot on Strike

Neither labor group set date for
the proposed walkout. Alvanley
Johnston, chairman of the brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers, said
balloting among the operating un-
ions would require three or four
weeks.
Intervention by the three man
federal mediation board appeared
certain.
If the mediation board should be
unable to dissolve the deadlock, it
could propose arbitration. 1t would
report an emergency to the
president if either the carrier or the
brotherhoods refused arbitration.
The president then may appoint
a fact finding commission. Such &C
ton would delay a strike for an
additional 60 days. Recommends
tions of revious commissions always
have been accepted.
