Its price changes
mentioned in recent press accounts relate primarily to the adjustment,
in the prices of semi-finished steel, which was announced last week to
the trade by Carnegie-Illinois.
Such adjustment represents an average
increase in its' prices^of semi-finished steel of about one-quarter of a,
cent
a
pound and was caused by the cumulative effect of past cost
increases
resulting
in
these semi-finished
products being sold by
Carnegie-Illinois at a loss.
