.SfeeEmen Aim
AT New Record
In ST Output

CLEVELAND, Jan. z (P). -
Steel mills last week operated al
100 per cent of the 1856 capacity
getting a good start on a pre-.
dicted l20-million-ton produc.
ton year. Steel magazine an.
nounced yesterday. The week;
production totaled 2.461, 1893 ton:
of steel for ingotS and castings.
"Steelmen are forecasting that
1857 will be a record output year
overtaking the present high Of
l17.036.085 made in 1855" tbs
Woodworking weekly said. "a
l20-million-ton yield would BIZ
a 3 per cent set-up over 1856.
lis million TONS"
The magazine said that Il
order to reach the new produc-
ton level the mills would have
to operate at 9000To of capacity
based on the new official annua
capacity figure for 1857 Of 49,.
459,150 net tons. compared with
1865 128,363, 900 tons. Produc,
ton last year represented S6.t
per cent of the official capacity
for 1856.
Capacity will continue Il
grow this year = probably more
than it did in 1856" the publica
ton said. THE steel industry
has around Is million tons Of
new steelmaking capacity under
construction and around six mil
lion tons of it should be com
pleted this year, compared with
over five million tons last year.
Steel pointed out that the in
dustry's production efforts this
year should not be plagued by
labor troubles.
Steel's price composite on fin
ished steel for the week ended
January 2 was unchanged at
S137 so a net ton. The composite
on steelmaking scrap. however
declined $1.33 to $63.17 a gross
ton. A month ago it was al
$66.l7.

The biggest percentage in
lcreases in research spending are
being made by companies which
until recently all but ignored
this. McGraw-Hill reports that
manufacturers expect II per
cent of their sales two years
from now to be in products not
being made today.
And small firms as we'll as the
giants are going in for research
on scale dwarfing anything in
our history. The smaller COM
panies are at an obvious diSad-
vantage. but more and more are
recognizing that the alternative
to research is-extinction. And
the Government is intensifying
its efforts to aid the smaller
firms in this vital field.
| Come to think of it. research
is even more than a new indus
try. 1t is an industry which
creates new industries and new
markets, 1t has been one of the
most powerful forces behind our
prosperity during the past 10
years.
Look back at just the sampling
Of new things I listed at the
start Of this column and you'll
recognize how powerful a force
for our prosperity it will be dur
ing the next 10 years.

YOUR
MONEYS WORTH
Billions Spent on Research
~ SYLVIA PORTER

Mr.. and Mrs. America.
wouldn't you like to have:
Laundry appliances that
would not only automatically
wash but would also automatic
ally sort, iron and fold your
clothes?
A telephone with which you
could dial numbers anywhere in
the country and in many areas
around the world?
A Tv screen on your telephone
$50 you could have face-to-face
phone talks with your friends
and business acquaintance?
A "stove" which actually would
be a counter with a series OF
electric outlets into which you
would plug your heating units
and cook foods secure in the
knowledge that, even though you
didn't give the food another
glance, it would come out neither
un. srdone nor overdone?
Chemicals which would de-
stroy only the plants in your
garden that you wanted to de-
stroy and would not harm those
you wanted to grow? 4
Wouldn't you eagerly dig into
your savings and borrow to buy
such items and services?
May be Available Soon
I'll bet you would! And I'll
also wager that youll be able
to get them within a few years.
For these are just a few of
the hundreds of things the ma
tons engineers and researchers
are now perfecting in labora-
tories across the country. and
they assure us they'll be avail
able a lot sooner than you sus-
Ipect.
You know that we in America
are concentrating more man.
power and money on research
than ever before-on the pure
research which reveals the
secrets of the universe and or
the applied" research which
gives us everything from polio
vaccine to color TV.
In this country, spending or
research is now running at the
rate of SIS billion year. against
spending of less than 5000 mil.
lion at the start of World War II
1000 Firms Active
At least 1000 corporations
