Market Returns
ToPrevious Low
After II Rallies
! Gradually Says During
Week Following Upturn
in Good War News
BY LEWIS HANEY

Professor Of Economics. v. Y. University
The stock market last week
gradually sagged. With little
volume. il fell back toward the
preceding low level, a level which
is a very important resistance.
I am inclined to think that the
most buliSh thing which could
possibly happen at this time
would be for the broader aver
ages to settle duly 10 this level,
or fractlonalty above and TO
hold there Then IT would gradu-
ally become clear that all the
m.'avorablc prospects are dis
counted on bdtTHCC.
The fact that the averages
rallied only briefly and tcnta-
lively when tho npHS of General
NacArfhuT s promotion was re-

i'm touch with realities, and is
more than a sentimental weather
Vanc. incidentally. II IS less likely
IN break 10 new lows than if il
had gone on a spree when the

One MONT 10 bo stressed now
is that "be3rish symn,oms" do

Steel Orders
Concentrated in
High Priorities
Mills Now Refusing
Commitments Lower
Than ALL Ratings

CLEVELAND. March 23.-By
far the greater part of steel orders
on mill books is concentrated in
upper priority brackets. shipments
on ratings below Alb being
slowed up and mills as rule ac-
cepting no new commitments
lower than Ali, says Steel.
Plates are most in demand but
the situation has been bettered in
recent weeks and most essential
needs are being met closer 10
schedule. Much relief is being az
forded as plates from strip mills
come out in larger tonnage. Re-
vamping of plate shipping sched-
tiles for shipbHilding is Under way,
reassigning TO strip mills some
tonnage formerly allocated 10
sheared and universal mills. Bars
are close second in demand and
ccnGnStiaa-iS- increased blythe
variety of products demanded from
bar mills.
AS a result of closer supervision
of inventory under new regulations
Of the War Production Board plate
shipments have been stopped tenn
porary TO shops of three railroads
which had accumulated what was
regarded as excessive inventory.
This is regarded as the forerunner
of other similar orders. Some in
ventory increase frequently results
from failure to receive other steel
needed to complete an assembly
and in those cases no blame at
taches. though further shipment
may be held back.
ORE FLEET STARTS
Part of the iron ore fleet left
lower lake ports last week, the
earliest in hi tory. and ice
breakers are opening channels to
Escanaba and Lake Superior ports,
in the effort TO start ore move
ment. With war demand increas-
ing. the need for ore will be
greater than last year and rec
ord tonnage MS needed. Weather
conditions favor the early start
and several million tons above last
yeas total is sought.
SemitiniShed steel requirements
for war purposes are taxing in
tegrated companies and mills rely
Ing on others for their supply find
deliveries lengthening. As the
latter have heavy orders with high
priority the situation is becoming
complicated. This applies in prac-
tically all products, bars, sheets,
pipe and wire being especially af-
fected. Semifinished producers
find it difficult to follow priorities
and must rely on speci1l directives
to move any order holding up vital
war production. With a prepon-
derance of Al preferences on
books of all finishing mills, inte-
grated or not, it is difficult to APP
portion raw material with exact
relation TO needs.

Chicago Grain

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, March 2.-Losses of
fractions to more than cent a
bushel in the grain market and as
much as 2 cents in the soybean pit
today carried quotations to the
lowest level in about three weeks
in most cases.
Selling, touched off by weakness
of securities and cotton, was stimu-
lated by uncertainty regarding the
outcome of a controversy between
the congressional farm bloc and
President Roosevelt over the power
of the Government to sell its ever
normal granary stocks at prices be-
low parity. Latest development in
this dispute was the abandonment
of plans for a conference on the
matter and a decision not to at
tach a rider to military appropria-
ton legislation prohibiting use of
these funds for purchase of Gov
ernment-held crop surpluses at less
than parity.
Wheat closed SIS cent lower

of as much as IS cents bale earlier.
Indicat ton that the farm bloc
would withdraw the rider on the war
appropriation bill to restrict Govern

decline.
When 1t became known, however,
