Detroit's prime steel source grows with the automotive industry Here in the heart of the automotive industry, the steel company set up long ago to become a depend- able first source for the car makers is now completing a new stage of growth. Great Lakes Steel-prime supplier of sheet, strip, and other shapes used in vast volume by the motorcar makers-is rounding out an expansion program that increases our annual capacity to four million ingot tons. That's about 252 of the automobile men's total needs for steel . . . and about 405 of their needs for the kinds of steel we make. The way Great Lakes goes at it-starting with the ore and working it through to the finished forms- steelmaking calls for substantial facilities, even by the standards of the mighty automotive industry. We have our own blast furnaces, bessemers and open hearths, blooming mills, hot and cold rolling mills and merchant mills. Recent expansion has included a huge new blast fur- nace, a new slabbing mill, and two new bessemers. Coming up in the next few months are seventy new coking ovens, another new blast furnace, additional finishing facilities, and all the extra handling equip- ment it takes to make things work together. Through this integration of operations, Great Lakes has built fexibility and availability unique among steel suppliers. Through this expansion, we mean to take good care of many customers in many fields, while we carry on our service as a dependable first source for the automotive industry.
