WORLD'S DEMAND.
Sir: Robert Hadfeld, F.R.8. the great. pioneer of the steel industry, writewat interesting article in the Daily Mail ort | the world's demand for steel,"
Steel and its workers are not popular imagination-stirring matters, because 990s, paratively few over give much thought to them," he says. When falk occasionally think of Shofield and steel it is often" ne" doubt in terms of knives and razors, and | but” geldom of them in connection with the really big thing that is products used on "our railway, in shipbuilding," vast engineering enterprises, and for many other purposes.
THE STEEL MIND.
The country as a whole has not the steel mind. Yet ateel is the suprethe key: industry of Great Britain; practically all forms of industry need steel in some way
I daresay it will come as a surprise to the majority who read this, article to know that the United States has an 'ont pug of all sorts to steel of about four times as much as this country.
It is a matter
of tens of millions of fons per annum. Even allowing for the greater population and the fact that America is a new country this is startling
Great Britain today is manufactur ing between tea and eleven million tons of steel a year. America is manufacturing hotween thirty-seven and forty million tons. Germany, too, in the past has been a long way ahead of us.
DROPPING BEHIND.
"We have dropped tens of millions of tons behind in the strelmaking ruce. Let that disturbing fact be pondered and allowed to soak in. It is a very serious matter.
“The question of coal_also_looms upon the disturbing scene. From two- to two and a half tons of coal are required to produce a ton of steel. One may therefore be forgiven for saying the ontlook is not altogether as it should be, b
Steel and progress must go hand in baad. The stone age, the wood age, the ordinary iron ago are past; this is the steel age, and this country must buckle to and make more steal if it is to keep up with the times,
The world wants steel for thousands of its rreonstruction jobs. The markets are open. Great Britain can either sell in them or buy in then! 10
SIR ROBERT'S DISCOVERY. “Thirty years ago when I broke into a comparatively new field I discovered, among other alloys, what is known as manganese steel - Very little work had then been done, in steel alloys but I showed that the ideas regarding the effect of dinwrent elements upon iron then provai
were incorrect,
Wits true that an iron alloy containing abou, 1 per cent of manganese was useful, that with 3 per cent, to 5′ per.
cent, the material became very brittle and was of no commercial value, La my researched I went up to 10 per cent, 12 per cent at even 10 per cent. of manganese, when it was first found that. nader proper treatment the material, in stead of being more brittle, as might have been expected, represented due of the toughest steels known in the art, and this at the same time with very high tenacity.. Urdinary mild steel possesses a tenacity equivalent to 30 tons per square inch with 20 per cent, elongation, whereas the tenacity of manganese steel is more than 60 taas per squere inch with an elongation of 50 per cent, and in some casta, even" 80 per cent. or more,
A GREAT INVENTION.
This was more than 30 years ago, and now the output of this material throughout the world is approximately millions of pounds in value. This peculiar, steel in non-magnetic, and another property of 18

tougher instead of brittle, ng with carbon steel. At the same time it is hard and becomes still border by wear that in, it is self-hardening, a very valuable quality, because the more severaly it is tested the better it is. There is not couce anough at my disposal fully to explain these various curious qualities; they are fully described in my various papers on the subico to scientifs and technical bodies.
** This discovery of mine, therefore, gave. engineers a new material to work with, one with greater wear resisting qualition than any other steels. Its use is economi cal, because time, labour, and the expanse of frequent replacement are all saved.
A An example of Its superiamey to other
steels has been demonstrated in conneo tion, with its usé on
tramways, and rail.
In the early days, with rails, points, and crossings made of ordinary steel, the lay-outs wore so. badly that parts had to be renewed every few weeks, whereas with manganese steel several years of trame made hardly any appreciable wear on the system DAR
** It was practically the first alloy' stool which taught the metallurgist to branch out into entirely new fields. From the discovery and use of other steel alloy similar benefits have resulted, helping to meet the world's increased - wants for a better and still better inkførial.
Just as one instance of this, I may mention that the modern vmidior-car pould not be produced at all but for these special steel. Imagine the world without motor- cara 1
