withstand the worst.
In the early afternoon it

up from their lows.
The decline extended to around
a point while gains were modest

The railroads, oils, metals and
some motors were depressed.
Steels did well right along. Other
segments of the market were

SteeImakers Told
Not 10 Expect Big
I'd Quarter Demand
BY the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, April THE
steel industry should not expect
a big shot in the arm in the Sec
ond quarter because of steel
buying by the automobile indus
try, Iron Age, the national
Woodworking weekly, said to-
day.
The magazine said that both
Ford and General Motors have
been increasing their steel in
ventories while out-distancing
the field in production.
Both firms, said Iron Age,
have been buying a little extra
steel as a hedge against a pos
Sible steel strike.
IT the approaching steel ne
.gotiations are peaceful, the
weekly added, the protective in
ventory could cause the auto
firms to slice their steel buying
even deeper than they usually
do during the summer.
Meanwhile, steelmaking OPP
erations this week were sched-
uled at 68 per cent of rated ca
pacity, down point from last
week when operations were a
point better than expected.
Iron Age noted the hopeful
sign that scrap prices have
edged upward for the third con-
Secutive week despite the alb
sence of real market strength.
Although the steel market has
been disappointing thus far in
1854. Iron Age said, the industry
has some bright spots to con-
template. These include the ex-
piration of the excess profits tax.
consideration by Washington of
a change in the income tax law
to base depreciation allowances
on replacement rather than orig
inal cost. the encouraging looks
of the fight to eliminate double
taxation of dividends and the
expectation that business will
take a turn for the better in the
second quarter.

the chief enthusiasm of Mrs.

The house is a long. low pink
