(By Asaeelatsd Press) :.. VALENCIENNES, France. Dec. 24
France's steel and iron, Industry, virtually cut In half by war's ravages, is
faced by what engineers estimate, to be an eight to ten year task of reconstruction. Details of the problem were related today to the correspondent of The Associated Press who Is visiting the devastated regions of France by
special government dlspenslon.
Engineering experts, however, say
the country's steel and Iron production may be much quickened by the mineral mining and metal treating plant of Lorraine, returned to Franca
under, the terms of the Versailles treaty. The seriousness oft the loss
to the Industry by war. nevertheless.
Is heightened -by the great necessity for metal construction throughout liberated", distrlcu and the dependence of nearly 160,000 Inhabitants of these
regions on , the blast1 furnaces and metal mills for a livelihood. "
In Valenciennes. Denain. Trlst St
Leger, Fresnes, An sin and other towns of this district the destruction suf
fered as a result of the conflict is estimated at 98 per cent Including the obliteration of the Denain and Anzin works which were the most important
in France. Large Plants Meet Needs . Of the mora than 600 small metal treating and metal construction Plants
of the devastated region, government
reports enow 47 per cent' have resumed work but with only 14 percent of the pre-war force. This does not Include the large plants which alone are Bald to be capable of meeting the country's chief needs in the way of
structural material and Important ma
chinery taken away or destroyed during the war. 'No note ot pessimism 1b Intended, It Is said, by engineers who forecast an eight to ten year period of reconstruc
tion before the nation can regain her
former place in the iron and steel Industry. These -men, in support of their position cite the fact that the work of clearing away the debris of war has not yet commenced at the
largest mill, and they declare this is
due to the necessity of designing a huge plant with equipment to cost millions of dollars and to other pre
paratory consideration. Actual accom
plishments to this end, they state, are
being delayed also by' the general con
ditions . holding up all construction
projects such as lack of transporta
tlon facilities',' labor troubles and the
shortage or coal and fuel. It is asserted, however, that prog
ress will be certain and steady with
the attainment of half production with
in five years. Small Plants Combine.
At present many of the smaller
plants are said to be devoting their output to the most needy fields. In
some instances several small concerns
have combined their equipment In
adequate for separate operation and
have thereby created a group of little
mills and shops capable of rapid ac
tion and able to help in some measure
In supplying the crying needs lor. machinery of all sorts. , ., ' Some of the bigger companies are said to be acting deliberately because of tho high prices, demanded tor the equipment necessary for their plants. The unfavorable rate ot exchange also it Is stated, has added to this disposition - to : hesitate, together with the
hope that prices will come down witb-J
in two or tnree years. - Housing problems t the plants are demanding the attention of the owners and promoters because in most esses the mills are located In small towns where the buildings were wiped out during the war. . .
