Schwab Testifies on Steel Tariff Costs and Global Competition
CHA.S. M. Schwab of New York tells the House Ways and Means Committee that rail and pig iron costs have fallen since 1899 and that English and German production run lower, but U S tariffs may be needed if labor or transport costs rise. He says Bethlehem Steel is not affiliated with U S Steel, but is a stockholder in it. He notes price control history and warns of potential effects on steel rails and producers.
