Schwab Voices Steel Trust Impacts and Tariff Views
Washington May 1 Charles M Schwab president of the United States Steel Company testified before the industrial commission. He described a highly centralized parent company with controlling stock in subsidiaries and plans to harmonize management while allowing individual operations to run their own affairs. He warned tariffs may be removed only where labor does not play a major role and opposed to publicizing corporate accounts and to one international steel cartel. He noted strong profits, rising ore and coal reserves, and anticipated decades of ore supply.
