NEW YORK, Aug. 8 (P).-Just
who is going to pay for the steel
wage-price rise? Steel company
stockholders, manufacturers of
products containing steel, mer-
chants and dealers in cars and
appliances, or you, the ultimate
buyer?
All may bear a share of the
higher costs. The greatest
squeeze perhaps could be on the
merchant or dealer who has to
coax a consumer who knows
that supplies are ample and bar
gains to be found and whose own
paycheck may not have gone
up at all.
In the oil fields, for example,
they know today they'll have to
pay more for pipe. It's in short

Higher Prices for Steel
TOT oI|onMonyS Shoulders

supply and oil drillers can't help
themselves. The cost of finding
oil is going up. But this doesn't
mean necessarily that your
service station is going to raise
the price of gasoline. There's
too much of it around, too much
oil available and being held back
at the well.
Steel Prices Raised
Last week the United Steel
workers of America signed a.
three-year contract which off,
Gals of United States Steel APP
praised as raising their operat-
ing costs in the first year by $40
a ton.
This week United States Steel
dropped the other shoe. 1t ad-
vanced prices of its products by
various amounts for an average,
it said, of $3.50 a ton.
On the face of it this would
seem. by lowering the profit
to put the company in
the position Of making up the
Difference in reduced earnings.
But the company may be expect
ing to get back some of this 81 so
by increased productivity and
use of more efficient new plants.
1t also hopes that Washington
tax authorities will change the
depreciation allowance rules so
that more of the cost of expan-
sion can be charged off that way
and less of it have to come out
of what the company gets for
steel.
Costs Going Up
Those who plan to build stores.
factories, Office buildings, bridges
or schools have little choice but
to raise their cost estimates. Con-
struction steel is in short supply
and bargains aren't to be found.
Higher construction costs could
deter some building but there is
no early sign of that.
Manufacturers using steel in
their products probably will pay
the high prices without much
quibbling. Some may absorb part
of the higher material costs, but
many contend they can't absorb
any more and must pass them
along in higher tags on their
own products. If they can, and
their competitors don't undersell
them and capture the market.
their profit margins should con-
tinue comfortable.
This then would leave it right
up to the merchants and dealers
and it's their profits that may
be squeezed the most at first.
