Steelmaking Recovers From l|.S. Goal Strike

(JIJNIILAND. Dec. is - (AP) - Steelmaklng WN-etloris are recov- ering Ilpidiy irmn effects of the coal strike and further gains are expected this week, the magazine Steel said today. '

Steel's estimated fictional ingot rate rose 12 points last week to 72.5 Percent of capacity. compared with 91.5 per cent immediately preced- ing the miners‘ walkout. .

"However, steel producers sra finding that it will take them sev- eral weeks to recover fully from the setbadr occasioned by the lstrlke." the trade journal declared.

"All interests will enter the new ' year with substantial order back- ilogs. Certain producers assert sr- rearsseswm carbon bars will take them six weeks or longer to work off. The stirimency in smell sizes of carbon bars is especially pro- trounced. but some forgets engaged on automotive requirement: are rim pressing as hard as previously anticipated. Alloy bay shipments remain easy. with Jan y and early February being offered."

Earnings, Expenses i

OHZAIWA. Dec. 1b - (OP) - Operating revenues of railways in Canada in i945 totalled $774,871,- 360. a decrease of 2.7 per cent from the record total of $790,686,786 in 1944. the Dominion Bureau Statistics reported today.

Freight revenues decreased by 3.3 per cent. passenger revenues by 4.0 per cent. but all other revenues hicrcased by 4.7 per cent. Operat- ing expenses amounted to $631.41”,- 562 compared with $634,774,021 in 1944. a. decrease of .5 per cent. Net operating revenues were $143,473,- 798 Lrr i945 compared with $161,- 862,785 1n 194i. ‘

Railway tax accruals were $30,- 777,455, compared with 835092.157 in the preceding ycar. ‘Hits repre- sented a decline of nearly one-third from the record of $44.414.192 in 1943. The continued reduction in railway debt outstanding was rc- flected in a further drop in inter- est charges on debt. which amount- cd to 071338.531 in 1945. compared with $74,177,422 1n the previous

_8 year. Other non-operating expenses

were $28,445,611! against $30.‘-fl7.- 761 in 1944. leaving net corporate income of $51,941,093 before divid- ends and other llrofit and loss charges against $61,691,644 in‘ 1944. The cash surplus of the Canad- ian National, paid to the Dominion Government and applied in reduc- ing loans from the government. amounted to $24,756,130, compared ‘with $231,026,924 in 1944. Since 194i. the operations of the Canadian National have realized surpluses totalling 5112502961.

The number of employees, based on the average of counts made Each month. increased from 175 095 in 194-4 to 180,603 in 1945. The highest since 1929. Salaries and wages am- ounied to 971.814.3121. A slight de- cline from the $372.064,6l3 pa'd in i944. The latter year. however, in- cluded approximately $10,000,000 back pay from 19-43.

The Increase in the number of employees over 1944 was concen- trated largely in the unskilled cat- egorles of maintenance employees» These two factors account for the decline in the average hourly WEB? for all employees from 83.4 cents to 81.9 cents.

In trainfiwcidcnts, l0 posit-HEP" were killed and 360 injured com- pared with eight killed and 416 injured in 1944. Ehnployecs killed in train accidents
