Steel Production
Down to a Dribble;
26.000 Miners Idle
PITTSBURGH, (/P) — Produc
tion faded to a dribble Tuesday in
the day-old steel strike. Allied un
employment mounted.
An estimated 26,000 coal miners
who produce coal for steel-mak
ing furnaces have been laid off
for the duration. Thousands of
railroaders awaited similar fur
loughs.
The steel industry fell from a
daily production of more than
300.000 tons to a tiny fraction of
that amount 24 hours after the
Supreme Court ruled the govern
ment had no right to seize the
industry April 9.
President Philip Murray of the
CIO United Steelworkers ordered
his 650,000 workers in basic steel
to drop their tools as soon as he
heard the decision. His men won’t
work without a contract, Murray
vowed. ,
The trickle of production left
is accounted for by firms like
Weirton Steel Co., in Weirton, W.
Va., and Steubenville, O., which
deal with independent unions and
by companies like Kaiser Steel,
which have signed agreements
with the union.
Steel industry experts expect
steel-consuming industries to con
tinue operations unhampered by
the steel strike—for at least two
weeks. And then the pinch will
come.
Steel for factories making all
kinds of steel products has been
more abundant recently and the
i
long-standing steel shortage was
just about over when the steel
workers struck.

Gov’t Aluminum
Contract Policy
In Cabinet Dispute -
WASHINGTON, (ff)—Two cab
inet officers took opposite posi
tions Monday on a proposed long
term contract for government pur
chase of aluminum from the Al
uminum Company o f Canada
(ALCAN).
Secretary of Commerce Sawyer
told the Senate-House Committee
on Defense Production the gov
ernment should get all the alumi
num it can for stockpiling and the
civilian economy from any possi
ble source.
But Secretary of Interior Chap
man said there are aluminum ex
pansion possibilities in the United
States and Alaska. He said he
would not favor a long-term
agreement with ALCAN until al
ternatives had been studied.
Chapman said he would not ob
ject to a short-term contract with
ALCAN to meet current shortages.
Henry H. Fowler, new defense
production administrator, told the
committee he would make no final
decision until the committee has
had a few weeks to make a report.
Congressional Leaders
Call For $6 V2 Billions
In Foreign Aid Funds
WASHINGTON, (/P)—Congres
sional leaders called Wednesday
for early approval of a foreign
aid authorization bob-tailed about
IV2. billion dollars below the $7,
900,000,000 President Truman
asked.
The $6,447,730,750 compromise
omnibus measure was agreed
upon late Tuesday by a Senate
House conference committee
which adjusted all differences in
a single day.
Actual appropriation of the
money will be covered in a sep
arate appropriation bill, and in
past years this has meant further
•reductions.
