But Demand Is Weak
BY the Associofed Press

NEW YORK, Jan. 12.-The stock
market simmered in a narrowly ir-
regular price range today
The general tendency seemed to be
upward, but there was no push be-
hind demand and numerous issues
sold at slight losses. Changes either
way were mostly less than a point.
Turnover continued at sluggish
rate.
Most Of the Presidents policies
have been laid out in the open, but
many traders are now waiting for
congressional reaction before taking
an aggressive stand in the market.

Scrap Steel Markets
Reported Concerned
Over Falling Prices
BY the Assoeiofed Press

NEW YORK, Jan. 12.-Falline
prices this week have made steel
scrap markets jittery all over the
country, the Iron Age, Woodworking
trade weekly. said today.
Whether further declines are in
order or the present drop foretells
less steel demand is not clear, the
publication added. It said prices for
No. heavy melting steel scrap and
other grades in major areas have
been reduced by from So to s2.25 a
ton.
The drop in steel scrap prices
cannot be laughed off," said the
Iron Age. In past years such de-
clines have been significant. But
there have been SO many changes
in market patterns that the drop
ping of prices now are not always
forecasts of what they were in pre-
war days.
The declines were attributed to
business uncertainty, increased scrap
imports, slow buying by steelmakers
and warm weather in the East and
Middle West.
The Iron Age, composite steel
scrap price dipped $2.O8 a gross ton
to $40.92 q ton, approximately the
level of July 6. 1948.
While finding no sign of a wide
open, drastic price break, the weekly
reported there was evidence that
gray market and conversion support
which has often helped to keep
scrap prices high was fraying badly
around the edges"
The gray market this week has
lost a lot Of its steam," the publica-
ton said, with prices on some ma
terial from $50 to s110 a ton lower
than they were early in 1e4S, al
though still 500 or so above the
present mill price.
