Large Morse Steel
Works Soon Ready

The Norwegian Ministry of In
dustry reports satisfactory pro-
gress on the Kr. 400 million cleo
trio iron and steel plant under
construction at Mo Rama, North
Norway, since 1916.
According to present calcula-
tons, the three electric pig iron
smelling furnaces will be ready to
start production at the end of this
year. The steel works are expected
to begin operations in the summer
of 1854. Manufacture of the roll
ing mills is we'll advanced and
should be completed by the spring
of next year. If installation of the
machinery proceeds on schedule,
the rolling mills will be able to
start production early in 1855.
ULTIMATE CAPACITY
After completion of the first
building stage, the Mo i Rama
plant will have an output of about
1875, 900 tons of rolled steel pro-
ducts year. Production may
gradually be increased, first to
100000. tons and then to 100000
tone year.
Norway's present iron and steel
consumption is about 100000 tons
a year, virtually all of which has
to be imported since domestic in
dustry can supply only fraction
of the needs. The new plant will
gradually reduce steel imports.
