Sawyer Calls Sessions : This Week to Increase Scrap for Steel Mills ». By th« Associated Press The Commerce Department plans , two moves this week aimed at keep-' _ lng steel production high or rais ing it. It already has obtained the ear marking of nearly 10 per cent of steel for "essential” users. Secretary Sawyer counts on the two projects to assure the industry j badly needed scrap so there won’t! be any steel-making capacity idle for lack of raw material. H% has invited the Nation's iron and scrap dealers to meet tomorrow and give their views on setting up a private corporation to be exclusive1 buyer of scrap in Germany for ex-, port to this country. The depart-; ment would then allocate this scrap. He has scheduled a meeting Thursday of ti'ade association exec utives to arrange a drive to collect iron and steel scrap material from industry, auto wreckers and farms— but not households—so it will get! into the flow of steel mills faster. Efforts Paying Off. Already, Mr. Sawyer’s aides say, efforts to get scrap moving, back here from Germany have begun to pay off in shiploads of steel. They contend, however, that another stepup can be gained if a single buying agent is established for American buyers of scrap from Germany. Earmarking of steel by voluntary agreement of that in dustry to programs sponsored by the department for benefit of "es sential” users will really begin af fecting the movement of steel next month, when a lot of the newly adopted programs get under way. Department analysts say they be lieve that channeling of nearby one-tenth of the expected 66,000,000 tons yearly output of steel won’t hurt manufacturers of nonessen tials severely. Their explanation: Essential users would have obtained more than 4.000.000 of the 6,000,000-odd tons they're to get under the programs by next June 30 even if there hadn't been any voluntary allocations pro gram. The expected 3,000,000-ton increase over last year in steel out put will make up for It. Essential Uses Cited. Here are uses to which steel has been channeled by voluntary allo cations programs already completed, along with the tonnage of alloca tions on an annual basis: Freight Car production, 3,000,000 tons; warm air furnaces for homes, 350,000; armed forces needs, 1,230, 000: oil field tanks and equipment, 198.360; inland waterway barges, 240,000; hard coal mining main tenance and repairs, 30,840; oil tanker production, 480,000. The Senate Small Business Com mittee contends that small busi ness in the agricultural implement Industry is not obtaining enough steel to maintain employment.
