Production Excellent. Since the beginning of this month froduction of pig iron and steel has been at a rate between 90 and 100 per cent. Of the March rate, which. was the ‘highest rate attained since Octo- her, 1918.

The iron and steel industry uses a tremendous amount of raw material requiring transportation, but it has various other indtistries in the matter of its transportatign.
