Increase in Demands
For Steel Predicted
By Trade Magazine
BY the A.seeioted Press

CLEVELAND, Oct. 19.-De-
mand for steel should soon be
on the upgrade, Steel magazine
said today.
The Woodworking weekly said
the inventory reductions that
started among steel consumers
appears to be about over. and
Gin some cases, consumers feel
they have cut their inventories
too sharply"
Most consumers, Steel said,
have lowered their inventories as
far as is practical in view of
the high, overall business condi-
tons. Now, the magazine said.
they must quit living of in
ventorieS and come into the mar
ket for sufficient steel to supply
their present high needs"
The decline that hit steel de-
mand last summer stemmed
largely from the fact that the
growing steel capacity and sup
ply caught up with demand about
the time the Korean war ended,
Steel said. Continued heavy ex-
penditures for national defense,
a good level of consumer ex-
penditures and a growth in pop
ulation prevented demand from
going any lower than it did. the
publication went on.
Another indication that the
decline may have ended, is fur
ther strengthening Of the scrap
market. Steel's price composite
on scrap rose last week from
$31.83 to $3.50 a gross ton.
Ingot production held steady
last week as the steel mills oper-
ated at IS per cent of rated
capacity.
