BY the Assoclated Press. NEW YORK, December 9.—Steel companies have the heaviest unfilled tonnages on their books since 1929, and orders are still pouring in except in those products for which books have been closed st fourth-quarter prices, Iron Age said today in the weekly review of the industry. Makers are exerting all pressure to complete shipments of these orders! by January 31 so they can realize| at the earliest moment higher prices announced for first quarter, the trade journal says. | “Mills have announced that on' identified construction projects, in-| cluding railroad equipment,” the re- view said, “they will protect con-| tractors at fourth-quarter prices on| all jobs quoted on by December 31| with the understanding that binding | contracts shall be entered into by Jan- uary 31 and specifications shall be in by March 31, with rolling and shipment at mill convenience.” ‘This concession to the construction field Las revived many inactive projects and will hasten others that have been | lagging. As an example, one steel | company has given price protection on | 17 oil refiners. Much of such busi- | ness will not be rolled until the second quarter. Recent railroad buying, the publica- tion said, which mills estimate at s. | 900,000 tons ot rails and about 270,000 tons of track accessories, will con- tribute in large measure to the support of ste=l production in the first quarter. Steel ingot production this week was estimated at 76': per cent, but, the review said, it was possibly higher in view of the fact that actual output in November, at 79.05 per cent, was several points above weekly estimates, indicating tonnage records are being made at several plants. The Iron Age composite price ad- vanced to $16.50. within 25 cents of its peak for the year. —_ FEDERAL LAND BANKS NEW YORK.
