Show Iron Age Says: December Thursday, Utah DAILY HERALD hi Inventory Lack 11, 1053 Believed Record for Nation - , f May Have Effect On Steel Situation Steel users could find themselves in a tight spot from an inventory standpoint about the time steel labor contracts expire next summer, according to The Iron Age, national metalworking weekly. ; Iron Age said that metalworking plants have cut their stocks to the point where even the buildup now gathering steam may not be enough to provide much of a safety margin in case of a strike in steel. It says the odds favoring a strike are about 65-3- 5. The 9 metalworking magazine said its appraisal of the outlook Is based on estimates of steel analysts "that steel inventories are now at their lowest-- , point since before 1950. It. added that even with an expected buildup of four million tons in the first half of 1959, steel stocks on July 1, when steel labor contracts expire, will be slightly . less than they were at the end of the 1956 strike. "If there should be a strike, the poor inventory position, of steel users will put pressure on steel firms for a prompt settle- ment," said Iron Age. It quoted industry sources to the effect that a steel strike could result in hardship for at least some steel, consumers within a period. The magazine said the inventory-cutting spree during the re - j . 30-d-ay cent recession was the biggest in history. Iron Age said industry sources estimate the cutbacks at something like 11 .million tons. This compares with a reduction of about 8- million tons - during the H 1954 recession, "As a result," said Iron Age, "steel stocks at the start of the fourth quarter were an estimated 12 million tons the lowest since before 1950, when the national economy was considerably smaller than it is today." The metalworking magazine said that most steel users have now begun to rebuild their stocks, and . probably will add about a million tons, during the fourth quarter. This would bring the total to about 13 million tons at year-enaccording to one estimate. "Inventory rebuilding will be speeded up considerably after the turn of the year," Iron Age predicted. "Steel order books already have begun to reflect this as well as the steady improvebusiness picment in the over-al- l are ture. The auto companies ' this in role a leading playing reversal, of inventory policy." "According to one expert," Iron Age said, "all products made from slabs could tighten quickly. That would include plates, sheets, and tinplate. Bars and structurals are less likely to be in. short supply, even for tem' porary periods." " . - d, -- .
