Though four Birmingham companies have had educational shell orders for a year and a half...
...capacity (Iron Age said 109%), tall, redheaded, reticent T. C. I. Chief Robert Gregg announced the 18-month expansion which will boost his pig-iron capacity more than 20% to over 2,000,000 tons. Steelman Gregg will add one blast furnace (boosting Alabama's active total to 191, renovate 18 standing open-hearth furnaces, build 70 coke ovens, install a 140-inch plate mill, modernize all mining operations...
