H. Losee H. McLeod Monthly Report on PRIMARY IRON AND STEEL IN CANADA - JULY, 1947 art II) Note: Because there is at present an unavoidable delay in compiling the statistics imports into Canada, it has been decided to issue this monthly report in two sections for a few months. The first section on "Production and Shipeients" will be released as soon as possible after the end each month and the second section on "Imports" will follow later as a separate report. This is a temporary arrangement and the two sections will be combined again when the situation with regards to imports has been cleared up. The statement on production and shipments in July, 1947 was released on September 15. PORT6 OF PRIMARY FORMS OF IRON AND STEEL. JULY.
