Steel Rate Estimated
At 70.2 Per Cent
In Current Week
Institute Report Cites
45.3 Per Cent Mark
Of Year Ago
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Sept. 11.—Opera
tions in the steel industry for the
current week will advance 11.6
points to 70.2 per cent of capacity,
a new 1939 high, the American Iron
and Steel Institute estimated today.
Last week s figure was 58.6 per cent
of capacity.
A month ago ODerations were at
the rate of 62.1 pier cent while a
year ago they were 45.3 pier cent.
The jump in steel production,
partly representing a rebound from
Labor day curtailment last week,
appeared to have been influenced
by the wave of war buying in metals.
Trade reports said steel makers
have witnessed a rush to cover
forward needs in finished products
for protection against price ad
vances. together with an increase
in exploit business as result of a
diversion of orders from Europe.
Except for a new year upturn
! the first week of January, it was
the steepiest weekly rise of 1939.
Since the Fourth of July lull m
steel activity, the operating rate
has nearly doubled.
The latest rate was the highest
since September 27, 1937, just be
fore the record-breaking autumn
curtailment in steel production that
year. !
