Iron Age Reports
O. P. M. Said TO Have Put
Yards and Shops Under
60-Doy Inventory
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Oct. 22.-Iron Age,
trade publication of the steel in
dustry said today it had learned
the Navy Department had been
placed under the no-hoarding" ban
OF the Office of Production Manage
ment in order to prevent large ac-
emulation of steel supplies badly
needed elsewhere.
ITO hasten the proper distribution
of vital materials" the publication
said in the weekly review of the steel
industry, the o. P M has imposed
60-day inventory regulation on all
navy yards and shops, so that sup
plies of steel plates and other critical
items cannot be boarded for use
many months ahead while privately
owned plants. defense and nom
defense, are short of material.
Supplies Tracked Down.
Other steps being taken to bring
out and redistribute stocked de-
tense materials are likely to show
that the Navy is not alone in i'll
dulging in a wholly fup to now
natural desire to foreSee shortages
and take the necessary steps to as
sure continuance of production.
whether defense or non-defense.
Banks, insurance companies. loan
companies and other similar agencies
are being used to track down stores
OF supplies, which, Government de-
fense agencies declare, are now vital
to the Nations security.
This week it seemed clear that
industry in the united States is
entering period of forced compli-
ance with priorities, and of in
creased ALLEGATION of materials
where the spread between supply
and demand is too wide TO permit
the effective use of priority rat
ings -"
Meanwhile the steel industry is
continuing its Week-after- week
schedule of near-capacity operations,
with ingot production this week esti-
mated by the Iron Age at 965 per
cent, a one-point decline from last
weeks revised rate of 975 per cent.
This week, as last. strikes figure in
lngot production. The Great Lakes
Steel Corp. strike at Detroit slashed
the operating rate there to 80 per
cent from "A per cent a week ago.
Before this strike, the Detroit steel
rate was the highest in the Nation
at 1915 per cent.
Strike MAY Be "Feeler."
The Great Lakes steel strike may
be classified as mystery strike al
though the possibility that it is one
of series of 'feeler" strikes in
tended to see how much the public
will stand in the way of a knock
down fight in steel over the closed
shop and dues cheCkoff can hardly
be ignored
In other steel producing areas.
the shortage of scrap was added TO
strikes as factor in mill schedules.
Lack of scrap has forced curtailment
of operations at Bethlehem Steel
Co.'S Lackawana plant at Buffalo
and lowered the ingot production
rate for that area to 945 per cent
from l06 per cent last week.
The steel industry this week con-,
tinued to book more tonnage than is
being produced or shipped. although
the influx of new orders is still below
the record breaking volume OF Au-
gust"

Since reading the letters on viyi-

These things account for the
tragic unrest In the world today.
Evil II rampant but am thankful
that IL II at last coming out from
under cover. Until reading your
expose Of vivisection. i did not
even know such things existed. But
because of your making known to
the world this terrible practice, /
know the day will come. and soon,
when IL will be entirely wiped out.
How can vivisectiOnist hold
up his head in public? The shame
and degradation Of a so-calied
human being who can stoop so low
as to butcher helpless animal
without even the decency Of using
an anaesthetic. is beyond my wild

net through another man would be
mere child's play In comparison.
