Required to Submit Inventories.
Washington. D. C.—Government de
mand for steel has reached such pro
portions. it was learned Wednesday,
because of the growth of the war pro
gramme. that the W ar Industrie*
board fears present sources of supply
soon will prove inadequate.
At the meeting o f the board manu

have obtained steel on priority orders
for war work and later were found to

Thi* practice has been in vogue, the
board learned.
All private consumers of steel and
steel products may be required to sub

It was found that many
manufacturers had obtained largo
quantities of steel before the govern

By means o f the inventories, J.
Leonard Replogle, director of steel
supply of the W ar Industries board,
will be able to keep a close check on
all steei in the country.
Chairman Hurley, o f the Shipping
board, conferred with officials ot the
W ar Industries board regarding the
requirements for the shipbuilding pro
gramme. Production of ships is show
ing such a marked improvement that
it may be possible to turn out five
ships a year from each way in some
yards, four ships in other yards, and
lesser numbers elsewhere.
If efforts to bolster up the efficiency
o f the weaker new yards are success
ful. it is evident to officials that the
size of steel plate mills must be in
creased or the shipping programme
will be delayed by lack of material.
A shortage of steel already is being
felt in some shipyards. Others have
more steel- than they need, which,
officials believe, is the result of “ cost
plus" system of contracts, under which
the builders felt free to expend large
sums on materials not needed for
many weeks.
