Rising Steel Demand
Continues With Strike
No Longer a Factor
ey the Assoeioted Press

CLEVELAND, Aug. 28.-The
upturn in demand for steel con-
tinued, the magazine Steel re-
ported today.
Contributing to the trend "are
competitions of inventory reduc-
tions, a conviction there will be
no immediate steel price cuts, and
an improvement in some fields.
notably the household appliance
industry" the trade journal con-
tinued.
At first much of the accelerated
demand was attributed to pro-
tective buying against threat
ened strike of steelworkers," Steel
said. "As orders now being placed
with mills cannot be delivered be-
fore the mid-September strike
deadline, it is evident consumers
have been impressed with the in.
dationary aspects of the overall
business outlook and are now
covering because they believe con-
ditions ahead justify such action" :"
The national steelmaking rate
advanced another point last week
to 84.5 per cent of rated capacity.
This was the highest point since
mid-June and was equivalent to
100000 net tons of ingots and
castings.
Steel also noted a strengthen
ing of demand for merchant pig
iron and "a continued flrming of
scrap prices"
