MACHINERY TRADE
REMAINS ACTIVE
February Volume Maintained
at High Levels Reached
in Previous Month.
Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March 10.—February’s
volume of domestic machine tool sales
showed little drop from the January
five-year high record, says American'
Machinist.
Most localities maintained the same
high level of orders with a few feeling
a slight slackening. New inquiries are
plentiful, and some sales offices are
having difficulty in keeping up with
them. Deliveries are lengthening be
cause of the continued demand. At
present te metal-working Industry is
practically free from labor difficulties.
Close attention is being given the
Akron strike, however, to see what
impetus it gives to the development
of vertical unions.
In New England, business held up
well, with prospects good during
March. New York had bigger volume
in February than in January. Phila
delphia is pleased with the way the
current level is holding and with the
number of new inquiries received.
Little change is felt in Pittsburgh,
but advance inquiries are active; there
is evidence here that the heavy indus
tries are coming into their own. High
executives are coming to the conclu
sion, long ago reached by shop men
and superintendents, that they must
spend money on modernization.
Cleveland plants are about 12 weeks
behind on commitments and look for
good business until June at least. Used
machinery sold from the Toledo
Willys-Overland plant to satisfy
claims, was well absorbed. Both do
mestic and foreign 'buying contribute
to maintain Cincinnati at a point close
to the recent high level.
Bad weather has had its effect on
Detroit tooling plants, but several re- 1
leases ar$ expected in the next 10
days. Supply sales have held up
well.
Chicago sales are well maintained
with prospects bright for further im
provement.

Ravon Deliveries

Continue on Large
Seale in February
NEW YORK. March 10.—Deliveries
of rayon yam to American mills con
tinued on a large scale during Febru- j
ary, according to Rayon Organon, pub
lished by the Textile Economics Bu
reau, Inc.
Measured by the regular index of the
publication, deliveries exceeded those
of January as well as the 1935 monthly
average, which is accounted for partly
by the smaller number of working days
in February.
Adjusted for normal seasonal varia
tion,* however, February deliveries rep
resent a small decline from the Janu
ary index figure.
AIRLINES DISCLOSE
BIG GAIN OVER 1935
By the Associated Press.
Scheduled air lines carried 44.061
passengers in January, against 28,
922 in the same month last year, it
was shown by reports of 23 companies
to the Department of Commerce. The
companies carried 354,301 pounds of
express, against 177,553 pounds in
January, 1935.
PENNEY SALES SCORE
13.72 PER CENT GAIN
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 10.—February
sales of J. C. Penney Co., chain store
concern, were $13,692,430, as compared
with $12,040,899 for February, 1935, a
gain of 13.72 per cent.

WHOLESALE INDEX
RECEDES SLIGHTLY
Fertilizer Association Beports
Average of 76.9, Against
77.0 Week Ago. ■
Declining for the third consecutive
week, the wholesale commodity price i
Index compiled by the National Ferti
lizer Association fell to 76.9 per cent j
of the 1926-1928 average in the week
ended March 7, from 77.0 in the pre- j
ceding week.
The index last week was at the lowest
level reached since July, 1935, and
was 2 per cent under the first week of
the current year. It was 46 per cent
above the depression low point, which
was reached three years ago in the
week of March 4, 1933. A month ago
the index was 77.5 and a year ago
76.7.
As had been the case in earlier weeks
the decline in the composite Index
last week was largely due to lower
prices for foods and farm products.
The food index is now at the lowest
level reached since the first week of
last July. The general trend of food
stuff prices was downward during the
week with 14 items included in the
group declining; the effect of the
declines was partially offset by higher
prices for flour and fresh pork.

STEEL FIRMS SET
Discounts Reach Maximum
of $3 a Ton on Orders
Above 150 Tons.
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. March 10.—The first
major steel producer announced today
second-quarter prices on sheets about -
unchanged from the preceding quar
ter, but inaugurated a provision for
quantity discounts for large users.
Republic Steel Corp. took the lead'
in adopting the new quantity discount
system, which provides for deductions
of from $1 to $3 a ton, dependent
upon the quantity released for ship
ment at one time.
The discounts reached the maximum
of $3 per ton on orders of over 150
tons.
"The new method of issuing prices
has been adopted by Republic in ex
pectation that it will lead to elimina
tion of unfair trade practices which
have grown up in the steel Industry,”
T. M. Girdler. chairman and president
of Republic, said.
The price of black sheets was set at
2.40 cents a pound and the price of
enameling sheets was set at 2.95 cents
a pound, both unchanged from re
cently prevailing quotations.
A second innnovation in steel pric
ing methods was contained in the
corporation's statement accompanying
the new prices in which it pledged
itself to adhere to open price practices.
The official price list was published
embodying the statement that "if and
w-hen any change is made in the price
as announced, supplementary or re
vised announcement will be Issued."
Girdler stated that prices on prod
ucts other than sheets will be issued
as rapidly as lists can be compiled in
the next few days.
Jones & Laughlin Steel Corp. of
Pittsburgh,* another large producer,
likewise announced second quarter
prices unchanged for most products
and announced that buyers of 150
tons or more of hot-rolled bars would
be allowed a S3-a-ton discount.
