First Time in War

BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 1.-The Iron
Age reported today that steel pro-
duction in the Pittsburgh district
largest producing area, at midweek
climbed to 100 per cent for the
first time since the United States
entered the present war.
The trade publication commented;
However sourly progress of the
war program is surveyed, industry
is making notable progress TOWARD
arming the United States and its
Allies.
steel ingot production in the
Nation as whole this week estab-
lished another new record of 985
per cent, up half point from last
week, an event which in some ways
is comparable to the winning of a
battle by the armed forces"
West Coast Difficulties Cited.
The magazine also said:
ITO temper an over-optimiStic be-
lief that the arms program is roll
ing toward an easy attainment of
ship, plane and tank production
goals are reports like that from
the West Coast, where one aircraft
parts plant says that it is operating
at only Is per cent of capacity,
while 10 others are using only Is
to 40 per cent OF their facilities
because of lack of materials. One
large aircraft die-casting company,
operating below Is per cent of ca
pacity, not only is suffering from
shortage of materials, but, like some
of the others, from lack of orders.
The West Coast airplane in
dustry, the Iron Age Is told, is
meeting Government schedules with
some regularity, but can produce a
great deal more"
Pressure Against Violators.
The publication said there was
evidence of increasing pressure
against priorities violators in the
War Production Boards penalties
against % steel warehouses for al
legedly accepting shipments in ex-
cess of their authorized quotas.
Industrial observers at Wash
ington emphasize that the Govern
ment is likely to become more severe
with priority violators and that
every industry must learn how to
operate under the priority rules re-
gardless of the inadequacy or un-
fairness of some priority orders, "

Texas Oil Production
Reduced 10 Level Of
Seven Years Ago
Tonker Losses Cause
Of State Order for
l8-Duy Shutdown
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
AUSTIN, Tex, April THE ad-
vent of April today brought oil pro-
duction in the biggest producing
State of the Union down to levels
of nearly seven years ago.
The Texas Railroad Commission,
State oil regulatory agency, has de-
creed wells must be shut down ls
days this month and that the aver
age flow of crude oil must not ex-
ceed l,o36,5i2 barrels daily, as COM
pared with 1,45o,o00 at the start of
the year..
The drastic reduction, in line with
production slashes over the Nation.
was caused by loss Of oil tankers,
victims of Axis submarines, OF the
Eastern Coast.
100-Octane Demand Continues.
Texas oil men reported that along
with the production cut, drilling
and refinery operations also have
slumped, thus halting what up to
recently had been steady expansion.
The only heavy petroleum demand
noted was that for military pur-
poses, including 100-octane gasoline
for the Nations flying forces.
Among proposed solutions for the
transportation problem were con-
struction of a pipe line from Texas
to the East with material taken
from existing Texas lines and barge
hauling up the Mississippi and Ohio
Rivers. No reports of progress on
the proposals have reached the
Texas capital.
Is Fields Exempted.

current production of crude oil
more than 10000 barrels daily and
reduced total Statewide yield, In
cluding condensate and natural gas
cline not subject to proration, to
