Show Edaemont Ruhr Stee' Industry Swamped With Orders DUSSELDORF. Germany (U.W Battered by Allied bomberi a few years ago, partially dismantled as a war threat and for reparations since then, the steel industry of the Ruhr is riding the crest of a profitable boom today. The gigantic steel companies and rolling mills of western Germany, concentrated in the busy Industrial valley, are sold out for months ahead. They are turning down new orders. Blast furnaces in the nation's richest production basin have not been so busy since they were playing a star role in Adolf Hitler's spectacular armaments production. Orders are now pouring in from the outside world at a rate four times that of six months go. )ven a substantial boost in the Allied-sproduction ceiling of tons yearly will do 11,100,000 little to offset the boom, German By TANA RICHARDS non- cepted for ferrous metal products until this branch of industry can catch up with its imposing backlog. To catch up with steel orders, according to official calculations, the Rhur would have to produce at a rate in excess of 1,S00,Q00 tons monthly. Its best post-wmonth so far, July, yielded only slightly more than that amount. Even if the Big Three foreign ministers would scrap the ceiling concept, an unlikely eventuality, the Germans would not be able to meet the demand. Present capacity is probably not more than 14,500,000 tons and steel men claim this figure can be achieved only if big money is invested in their plants. An industry estimate of the funds needed to produce at full capacity is $238,000,000. Intensifying the problems brought about by the boom, experts said, are dwindling stocks of raw materials and products. Supply bottlenecks have developed in copper, zinc and nickel. This will delay delivery of some products as much as twelve months, it is said. Steel men also complain about the lack of liquid capital which they claim has prevented the industry from stockpiling raw materials. The issue of capital is expected to be raised often and loudly whenever the production ceiling is raised or discarded by the .allies.
