Variable Annuity
Bill Becomes Law
In New jersey

TRENTON. N. j., June 1S
(AP) Three controversial bills
allowing the sale Of variable
annuities in New Jersey were
signed into law today by Gov.
Robert B. Meyner.
The new laws would allow
life insurance companies to
offer the annuities under
strict regulation Of the State
Banking and Insurance De-
partment. The variable an
nuities are based on the value
of common stock. so that the
payof is designed to fiuctuate
with the future worth Of a
dollar.
Gov. Meyner cautioned that
purchasers could not expect to
"play the Market" but would
have to get into a long-term
program which could pay
benefits after retirement.
New Jersey thus becomes the
first State to authorize the
sale of variable annuities to
the public.

Steel Produced
Without Melting
In Republic Tests

CLEVELAND. June 10 (AP)
Strip steel can be produced
without blast furnaces and the
melting process. the Republic
Steel Corp. announced yester-
day.
The company has developed
an experimental process in
which finely powdered ore with
a high iron content is pressed
into steel strips. The process
was developed in Republics
new $5-million research center
which was dedicated formally
yesterday in suburban Inde-
pendence.
Peter Robertson. vice presi-
dent Of Republics research and
planning. said:
"A commercial plant will not
be built for FIVE or six years,
but such a plant would cost
only 40 to SO per cent as much
as installations used in the
conventional melting process. +"
The process consists Of three
major steps:
First. iron ore is highly puri-
fed and reduced to metallic
powder.
Second, the powder is COM
pressed into a semi-solid strip
by rollers.
Finally. the strips pass
through a furnace. heated to
1900 degrees Fahrenheit. and
on through hot-strip rolling
stands. The steel goes through
the usual picking operation,
cold rolling and annealing
before being recoiled or cut into
strips.
Our tests" Mr.. Robertson
said, clearly show we can pro-
duce a quality steel by this
method"
