Consumer Pressure
For Steel Is Easinq
By the Asseeieted Prasa

NEW YORK, July Con
sumer pressure for steel is cas-
ing from the frenzied level exist
ing before the industry's recent
wage settlement and price in
crease, Iron Age, national metal
working weekly, said today.
The magazine also reported
new increases in steel scrap
prices in most areas.
Iron Age said consumers still
want plenty of steel. but they
now seem willing and able to
wait a reasonable time for de-
livery.
Steel inventory is accumulat-
ing. Aircraft companies and
other defense manufacturers who
have been cut back have con-
siderable amounts of some alloys
on hand. Also. a gear supplier
strike has slowed output of some
auto companies and their sup
pliers.
Steel sales people have noticed
some order cancellations re-
Gently. But so for somebody else
has been eager to pick up the
Cancelled tonnage, the magazine
said.
With backlogs of orders still
averaging four to five months,
steel production will stay as close
to 100 per cent of rated capacity
as vacations, hot weather and
maintenance needs will permit,
according to the trade journal.
