Outlook Blue for Railroads as Scranton Mills Seem Set to Benefit
General Manager Carl W. McKinney of the Lackawanna Iron and Steel company says the steel outlook is bleak with no orders and weak demand for merchant hardware. He notes Scranton mills last year held the district’s largest share of steel rails and expects the same in the coming season if demand picks up. He dismisses misleading reports of a Penn Steel order subdivision as untrue and calls the steel trade highly uncertain, with orders arriving with short notice from railroads.
