Steel Manufacturers
Reported Avoiding
Gray Market Deals
BY the Assoeioied Press

NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-Manu-
facturers who have been grabbing
for steel offered in the gray mar
ket at two or three times regular
mill prices are shying away from
such deals, the Iron Age, metal
working trade weekly, said today.
The publication attributed this
to several factors:
"High-priced inventories are be-
coming burden. Even some firms
|of considerable means are feeling
the financial strain of growing in
ventory, some of which was ac-
|quired at premium prices.
Unbalanced inventories, now
the rule instead of the exception,
have altered purchasing plans of
some manufacturers. There is a
tendency to gear procurement of
other items to those which are
hardest to get.
production restrictions have
also neutralized the incentive of
some manufacturers to go after
'high-priced material to keep their
operations high.
Demand in some consumer
durable lines particularly ap-
pliances) is Disappointing. At
least two large makers of ap-
|plianceS plan additional sharp
Icutbacks in fourth-quarter opera
tions. Despite sales campaigns
and lower prices, sizable inven-
tories OF finished goods remain"
The Controlled Materials Plan
also is putting a damper on the
gray market, reported the Iron
Age. 1t pointed out that some
potential customers have received
GIMP allotments.

Motor Shares Head
Mild Stock Rally;
SteeIs, Rails Gain
By the Associated Pres.

NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-Auto-
mobile shares headed a mild rally
today in the stock market and
brought prices up moderately.
Buying came into the motor di-
vision in midmorning, evidently
in response to the prospect of a
price increase under the sponsor
ship of the Office of Price Stabili-
zation.
Steels and some rails joined in
the higher movement with more
activity than average. Chemicals
and oils. together with a long
list of miscellaneous issues, posted
higher prices but there was little
trading interest shown.
The cuts in steel allotments to
producers of durable consumer
goods announced by the Defense
Production Administration had
little immediate impact on the
market.
The copper mining section idled
along over a narrow price range.
Gulf Oil was the best performer
in its division after reporting what
might turn out to be a discovery
OF major proportions" in a Wild
cat well in Western Canada.
Stocks moving higher included
Bethlehem Steel. Republic Steel,
'Chrysler, Studebaker, Chesapeake
e Ohio, Southern Pacific, Texas
Co., Twentieth Century-Fox, Ken
necott Copper, Air Reduction, Du
Pont, Westinghouse Electric
American Woolen. Goodrich, Boe-
ing, Zenith Radio and United
Aircraft.
Some rail loans were higher in
the bond market. Government
securities in the over-the-counter
market were steady.
