NEW YORK. Nov. is R.-
For some consumers. procure
ment Of hard-to-get steel has
now become ''the worst night
mare since the Korean war"
the Iron Age. a national metal:
working weekly. said today.
The scramble for steel by
manufacturers has become a
grim hfe-or-dea struggle, the
magazine added. It reported as
follows:
The situation is getting worse
despite everything the mills are
doing to step up production.
Companies. large and small, are
compelled to get steel wherever
they can-by high-cost conyer-
sion, buying from so-caIled steel
brokers and making barter
deals.
Lack Of steel is imposing a
limit on what many companies
can produce and this is limiting
what business they can accept.
Conversion deals involving
thousands of tons include
sheets. plates and bars. Such
deals are expensive for the con-
sumner but the alternative is to
slow down or shut down produc-
'tion lines.
Ingot costs range up to $iO0
ia ton In conversion deals, nearly
double the regular mill price.
Slabs, the second step In the
steel production cycle. are going
for $ll0 fob. compared with
the mill price of about $68.5o.
The growing volume Of con-
version tonnages Is posing q
threat TO efforts Of the mills to
hold down steel scrap prices.
Higher scrap prices in turn in
crease the pressure on finished
steel prices. Record breaking
scrap export demand is another
factor in the threatening scrap
price crisis.

O'Malley said that if a suit

Mayor Promises Action
The mayor promised the prob

Its meeting next Wednesday.
The issue of a new park for
the Dodgers was raised when
OMalley announced last Tues
day that Brooklyn would play
seven of it's National League
games next year in Jersey City.
He said Ebbets Field, present
home of the Dodgers, would be
sold after the 1857 season and
that the Brooklyn club would
move to more modern quarters.
AS the one-hour meeting to-
day ended, Mayor Wagner read
