"but not as flexibly usable as the

Coal and iron ore are the very foundation of our industrial nation, and in the past other metals always have been brought to them. But men such as Elmer Y. Pehrson, chief of the economics "and statistics branch of the U. 8. bureau of mines, cite unprecedented wartime depletion of res sources, and difficulties of stra- ' tegic metal supply, as calling for
