Steel output rises in Youngstown district on auto demand
Sheet steel production in the Youngstown district edged higher this week due to auto industry buying. Ingot output at the week's start stayed slightly above 16 percent capacity. Republic Steel Corp resumed operations at its Niles Ohio sheet plant with five mills back on power. The winter season usually lowers demand, but traders hope for better activity, though December may slacken as in prior years. Auto buying plus new models add to expectations for 1933.
