General unsettlement of steel prices has disturbed the structural steel price situation at a time when it seemed as though some stability was to develop. There is, at least, some improvement reported in inquiry, es- | pecially for material to be delivered n the first part of 1922, but now that another price cut has occurred some of this business may not be closed until the latter part of this yea There has been a siight increase in; longn‘e. Prices seem to depend en-’ tirely upon specification. 3 The factor making for higher glass| prices is due first to a great dis- turbance in the glass-making labor market in Belgium and to the fact that about one-third of the American window glass producing capacity has closed indefinitely for general repairs and other causes. The other two- thirds of the American glass indusiry is operating at 25 per cent of capacity. Stocks in jobbers’ hands are now extremely light and replacement, they report, i8 becoming increasingly dif- ficult.
