Awakening Seen
For Need of More
Public Transit

CLEVELAND, April 13 (AP)
There is a general awaken
ing to the need for public
transportation facilities in ur-
ban areas throughout the coun-
try, the vice president of the
American Transit Association
said yesterday.
George w. Anderson of New
York spoke at a regional ATA
conference attended by more
than 400 transit executives
from the United States and
Canada.
Mr.. Anderson said many
cities are anxious to extend
their present transit facilities
and even to build new lines,
but for them financing is the
principal stumbling block" He
contended that public officials
charged with planning must
look well into the future.
Earlier w. E. P. Duncan of
Toronto, president of the ATA,
told the conference that the
decline in the use of urban
transportation facilities has
ended and transit is on the
upgrade again. He said the
industry is headed for rejuve-
nation.

Steel Orders

NEW YORK, April l3 CAP)
Steel mills this week report a
mild improvement in new or
derS, but such orders remain
disappointing when measured
against capacity, Iron Age mag
azine said today.
While most steel executives
are confident of a pick up in
orders soon," the publication
said. the steel operating rate
will continue to decline, prob
ably into the 70s (per cent of
capacity before leveling off"
The American Iron and Steel
Institute has estimated produc-
ton this week at 1913 per cent
Of capacity
The national metalworking
weekly said, Cancellations and
deferments of steel orders al
ready placed have leveled of,
and in some areas have almost
ceased.
The big users of steel have
their inventories at the point
Where they want them, and any
surge OF new business will mean

How D. c. Primary Candidates Differ

Two of the Nations best
known liberal Senators, Hum
phrey of Minnesota and Morse
of Oregon, will compete for
votes in the Democratic presi-
dental preference primary to-
morrow.
Since their voting records in
Congress are fairly similar,
some voters may wonder if there
are any significant differences
between them.
Senator Morse has said that
the fundamental difference
is that the Minnesota Senator
is willing to compromise on
principle, while he is not.
Senator Humphrey has en-
phasiZed that he has had ex-
ecutive experience as Mayor
Of Minneapolis and that he
and Senator Morse have diff
ferent temperaments.
Senator Morse is a former
dean of the University of Ore
gon Law School and Senator
Humphrey is a former political
science professor. Senator
Morse, SO, has been in the
Senate l6 years and Senator
Humphrey, 40. has held his
seat there II years.
Rivalry of Friends
Despite the occasional note
of bitterness in the campaign,
the two men say they are
