Boss Gary outlines proposed international steel price institute
Washington June 2 Elbert H Gary boss of the Steel trust tells the Stanley Steel Investigation committee a worldwide association to prevent ruinous price fluctuations will be proposed at a Brussels meeting July 5 and 6. He recalls the American Iron and Steel Institute formed after 1871 panic to curb competition and price cutting and says a global body would discuss moral and sociological questions in iron and steel making. Gary notes U S Steel once held about 60 percent of U S steel business, now under 50 percent, and says he does not back fixed prices or routine competition, but favors price stability for producers and consumers. He adds U S Steel controls more than half the country’s ore supply and that his firm does not produce armor plate.
