Fairless Sees Steel Wage and Price Rise Likely
In Los Angeles on November 16, Benjamin Fairless of U.S. Steel warned that a fifth wage round may push steel prices up but have negligible inflationary impact. He argued higher wages are needed but would not justify broad price hikes, citing cost-of-living parity and recent wage patterns. He predicted a possible $60 per ton price rise for finished products and a $40 per ton rise for raw materials, while noting a 10 percent steel price increase would barely affect auto or ship prices. He added Union Oil’s Rease H. Taylor defended western petroleum against monopoly charges.
