■EDICTS STEEL HD IRON BOOM Pr NEAR FUTURE Official Says Industry Near Great Production Period. NEED FOR BIG OUTPUT WASHINGTON, Sept. SO.—Tho te<'l and Iron industry within a short period win be plunged into the blgges. production period in history, a leading official of the Administration predicted, refusing, however, to permit the use of his name. The official who, before entering the Harding Administration, was closely con nected with the industry and lived in a big Pennsylvania steel center, is in a position to appreciate the trend. With the revival of business now grad- j ually working out in the United States i and to a certain extent abroad, Fteel aud lion production, it was said, will soar to a tonnage greater than the record set . up during the war period. REACTION TO FOI.LOW CURTAILED PRODUCTION. War period record production came in I!U7, when the output of steel ingots and castings was 45,000,5d7 gross tons, and that of pig iron in 1916, when the output touched 39,439,000 gross tons, extent of the predicted boom may be gauged frotrVfhls year's rate of output, which in s.eel ingots and castings Is 25.000,000 gross tons, and pig, 24,000,000 gross tons. This year’s production is far below that of the pre-war period. The boom in steel will result, it was • rated, from very extraordinary demand made necessary by curtailed productiou all over the world for more than three years. The world is short millions of tons of steel and iron needed for replacement of factories, bridges, ships, railroads, automobiles and a thousand ether Industries. RAILROADS NEED REPLACEMENT STEEL. Railroads, it Is predicted, soon will be buying at a rate three times greater than normal because of the unusual need for replacements. Enormous extension in plants and equipments, developed during 1916-17-1S te meet the war demand, but now idle, ■will be called Into play to meet the coming needs of the United States and of the entire world, according to the , prediction.

Nearly 500,000 wage-earners and salaried officials and employes will bo needed by the industry with th* resumption of full-time production. Persons employed in the industry now probably do not exceed 250,000. Millions would be added to tho purchasing power of the American consumer by a revival of steel production on a large seaxe. Thousands of coal miners would be called into the miuos to get o>-r fuel for the furnaces. ■tNDIANA RANKS THIRD IN INDUSTRY. Wage-earners of more than thirty States have a vital Interest in steel production. Os these, Pennsylvania rank* first, with steel workers numbering more than 100,000 in normal times. Next comes Ohio, followed by Indiana, Illinois, New Tork and New Jersey in the order named. • Among other States in which steel and eteel products are produced in large quantities are Delaware, North Carolina. Maryland, Michigan, Illinois, W isconsin nnd West Virginia. I More than $2,000,800,000 now is Invested lln the industry, according to Census Bu Ireau valuations, of which a large percentage is earning nothing or next to ■t’Othing. Nearly 1,000 concerns are ready ■to take advantage of the boom when it tomes, or, rather, if it does come, in sh proportions predicted. Between WO and fiOO plants ar ready to run out casting pig and steel prcrducts. BALDWIN PLACES 810 STEEL ORDER. The Baldwin Locomotive Works ba placed an order for 230 tons of steel plates. The material will be used in filllog a contract for locomotives recently placed by the genernment of Chile. Reports in the steel trade are'to the effect fbe order was placed on a basis of ].<} ats per pound. Pittsburgh, or $S per B* n under the “official quotation.”— Copr■ght, 1921, by Public Ledger Company.
