National defense steel costs overstated by $980 million
Article notes a mathematical breakdown showing Kennedy and McNamara overstated steel cost increases by 980 million dollars. It quotes the president claiming a one billion dollar addition to defense costs and questions McNamara’s role and credibility given his Ford Motor background and non political image.
Skepticism on Steel Cost Rise Cited by Editor
Donald M. Ewing of the Shreveport Times questioned the presidential steel cost rise. He cited 1960 production near 100 million tons, suggesting a $6 per ton increase would total about $600 million. Charles W. Huse replied that 1961 output net to industry was 66,126,000 tons, reducing the impact to about $396,756,000 overall.

Steel price and defense cost estimate contrast
Mr. Huse cites three and three and a half million net tons as the best steel input for defense production. Based on this, a six dollar per ton increase would raise defense costs by about 20 million, not the one billion figure given by the President and Secretary of Defense. The discrepancy is 980 million, implying steel would need to reach about 300 dollars per ton to reconcile the estimates.

In Three Notrump with diamond lead you win J with Q and aim to establish spades by leading a low spade to dummy. This gives the best chance for two extra tricks, preserving options if spades are 3-2 or 4-1. In Six Hearts after A of diamonds and K of hearts you cash A K and plan to finesse clubs and spades, discarding losers to establish the diamonds and clubs, handling a 4-1 spade split by ruffing and cross-ruffing as needed.
