Steel Raises 10 Cost
Users $4,000,
A Year, Iron Age Says
By the Assoeiated Pres.

NEW YORK, Feb. 18.-Price raises
on steel products in the past week
will cost steel users around $685.
600, 900 annually, The Iron Age, trade
weekly, said today. 49,,
"It could possibly be-" the publi-
cation commented, that some OF
these increases are anticipating the
wage demand to be made this week
by Philip Murray, steel union head"
Increased prices on pipes and
tubes, certain semifinished material
and extra charges on structural
steel shapes were pointed to by the
publication as evidence of steel
makers, faith in the Solidness of
steel demand"
Pipe Costs to Rise $4,000, 900
Cost increases to pipe consumers,
principally the oil, gas and water
industries, will total around $43, ,000,-
900 annually, the paper estimated.
The Iron Age said changes in
extra charges will cost structural
fabricators around SIS, ZOO, 900 a year,
while another $10,000,000 must be
borne from forging and rerolling
billets. blooms and slabs.
1t added, Talk by steel officials
advocating lower steel prices has
not been supported by these price
increases and by others which have
been made since the first of the
year and which included tin mill
products. Alloy bar extras, nails
and fencing and certain railroad
specialties."
Operations at 1870 of Capacity.
Discussing supplies, the trade
paper said, THE recent decline in
the steel ingot rate and the loss of
output due to cold weather has
met headon with increased con-
sumner requirements"
Operations this week continued
unchanged at SO per cent of rated
capacity, it reported.
Declines averaging rs cents a ton
for No. l heavy melting scrap in
the Chicago area and so cents in
Philadelphia depressed the Iron Age
scrap composite to $40.08 gross
ton. This was a drop of AZ cents
from the preceding week.

Stock Market Moves
IrreeuIarIy Lower
In Sluggish Dealing
By the Assoeiofed Press

NEW YORK, Feb. 1&-Stocks
bumped along an unevenly flower
trail in today's market.
Narrow fluctuations in commodi-
ties did little to shake security
traders from their indecisive atti-
tude. Some of the oils and railroads
were easier at times but there was
no urgency in either bids or offer
ings. The ticker tape was idle for
long intervals. Near the fourth hour
plus and minus fractions were
widely scattered.
News developments to sustain a
mvement in either direction were
lacking. Brokers said customers re-
manned cautious pending clearer
views of the effects of commodity
price adjustments, and of prospects
for tax legislation and foreign aid
programs. Some timid bidding stem
med from hopes for a resumption
of the TECHNICAL comeback.

so nice and warm here and the
flowers are blooming. Yester-
day, I saw a man picking a
bouquet of Sweet Peas in many
different colors, and lots of
Gladioluses. There are a lot
of places to see yet. Mrs. Don
ovan is writing to relatives in
Germany.
May God be with you all.
Pray for us.
