Steel reinforcement for an abdomen
That gossamer screen is stainless steel, inserted to strengthen muscle wall. Stainless steel is so corrosion resistant it can stay in the human body for a lifetime. But stainless is only one of hundreds of types of steel. There are, in fact, more types of steel than there are kinds of wood.
Steel, besides being the lowest priced of all metals, about 14 a pound for the most popular types, is also the most versatile. Every product you touch at any minute of your life is either
made of or with the help of steel. Think it over —find something that isn't mined with steel, processed, planted, packaged in, or shipped with steel.
This is why the present need for steel expansion is important to you, important to our rapidly rising standard of living. Steel must be kept plentiful to keep it low in cost.
The recent price rises of steel have increased the cost only a fraction of a cent a pound!

REPUBLIC STEEL.
WORLD'S LARGEST MANUFACTURER
Cleveland 1, Ohio
OF STAINLESS AND ALLOY STEELS
STEEL REINFORCEMENT FOR HIGHWAYS or mine roofs is provided by products of two widely diverse Republic divisions. Concrete highways may now be laid in one continuous ribbon, using Reinforcing Bars made by the Truscon Division. These steel bars strengthen the concrete, minimize cracking, eliminate the need for expansion joints, reduce road maintenance. Threaded steel shafts, made by Republic's Bolt and Nut Division, enter the mine ceiling, expand and bolt a plate of steel against the mine roof. Obstructions are eliminated, permitting maximum clearance for men and machines.
