Schwab discussed as potential Iron and Steel Institute leader
Charles M Schwab voiced support for Robert P Lamont in his resignation as president of the American Iron and Steel Institute. Lamont steps down after 14 months at a $100000 salary, amid NRA code debate and industry regulation worries. The institute will focus on code compliance and government reporting as the search for a successor continues. In Grundy Center, a $25,000 auto crash suit against Central Iowa Telephone Co settled out of court with a $5500 payoff to Mrs. Lu Booth.
