Steel Supply to Return to Prestrike Levels in Early 1953
Washington defense official Henry Fowler forecast steel stocks would rebound to prestrike levels in the first quarter of 1953 after a 55 day steel strike. He cautioned copper and aluminum shortages would persist for civilian use into mid 1953 and aluminum remains tight into 1954. The NPR anticipated relaxed construction curbs by April 1953 with more allocations of copper and aluminum for housing and infrastructure.

Policy Shift on Shipbuilding Contracts Policy Shift on Shipbuilding Contracts
Acting Defense Mobilizer John R. Steelman halted the policy of directing shipbuilding work to areas with high unemployment. The Defense Department must favor firms in regions with a surplus of skilled shipyard labor and those already equipped to handle the work. A Surplus Manpower Committee urged the change to keep U S shipyards in vigorous operating condition for national defense. The panel found general labor surplus does not guarantee skilled workers for shipbuilding.
