Steel merger reshapes Canton stamping and Massillon mill control
A large merge of stamping and enameling interests including Canton Stamping & Enameling Co and two Bellaire plants has shifted control of the Massillon Rolling Mill Co to H. M. Geiger president of Geiger-Jones Co. The Massillon mill will be expanded to supply sheet metal for Canton and the Bellaire plants, with property valued around six million dollars. The deal disrupts a plan by Ed Langenbach to acquire the Massillon mill for high grade sheet steel used in auto parts, as an auditor worked on Canton's records amid Geiger’s takeover. The arrangement leaves Langenbach a major Canton stockholder.

Trust Plans 10 Nip Many Lights
Plans in the hands of General Electric officials envision a vast electricity grid from Niagara Falls to Canton Ohio, sending power via submarine cable under Lake Erie. The scheme aims to crush municipal power plans by offering ultra low rates, with private plants bought up by holding companies to supply northern Ohio for a decade. Canton will be among the first cities in the big circuit after Cleveland as construction uses Waterpower machinery and a $1,000,000 expenditure to equip plants and buildings. Transmission through Lake Erie would be straightforward, with 60 000 volts capable through a cable inch thick, engineers say.
