However, Mr. Roth said that a definite trend of sizeable parts was now going to- ward private construction, and throughout the Northwest numer- ous private industries were buying steel for remodeling plants or build- Ing new ones.

A considerable amount of Beth- lehem Steel products come into Al- aska in various ways, including the tin used for cans, steel that goes into bridges and dredge construc- tion, pipe lines, building construc- tion, and last year 100 tons of barh- ed wire for the Matanuska project. The steel which will go into the new Juneau Dairies building is a Bethlehem product, Lkewise the steel used in the Alaska Electric Light and Power Company's new building, and many other buildings in Alaska. While here Mr. Roth will contact the numerous builders and con- tractors with whom his firm does business. For more than twenty years Mr. Roth has been actively engaged in the steel business in the Northwest. Today Mr. Roth was being shown around Juneau by his long-time friend, J. B.
