NEW YORK, April 19.—A new high production record for the steel industry in this country was an- nounced today by the American Iron and Steel Institute. It reported operations for this week advanced to 91.3 per cent of capacity from 90.3 per cent the previous week, equivalent to a tonnage output of 1,196,000 tons for the week. This stopped the May, 1929, peak of 1,193,- 284, the institute said. Operations on a percentage of ca- pacity basis were higher on the 1929 spurt. Steel men explained, however, expansion in production facilities in the meanwhile enabled the industry to set a new tonnage record, despite the lower operating rate. Busy for weeks on the largest back- log of unfilled orders in many years, the industry has pushed steadily up the recovery path this year. The latest week operating rate com- pares 89.6 per cent a month ago and 70.4 per cent a year ago. Trade quarters have reported some slackening in new orders lately, but the large reserve has enabled mills to maintain activity at peak levels for the recovery. Orders have been coming in from a variety of sources, with revival in rail equipment buying and expansion in automobile production sinee the settlement of strikes swelling incom- ing business.
