U s ShipbuiIding Uses Most Steel

The American Iron & Steel In- stitute has recently released statis- tics showing that the shipbuilding industry was the principal custom CT of the steel industry in 1922. This is the first time in history that the shipbuilding industry had top rank.
 Tn 1922, 9,425,0OO net tons of steel products were sent to ship builders for fabrication into ves- sells for the Navy and Maritime Commission. This does not in- clude a large quantity used for construction of shipyards and ways, buildings and other auxiliary equipment.
 The 1922 total was more than three times as large as the 1941 total and represented 16% of all steel shipped to consumers in 1922.
