Plant buys Japanese steel and sparks uproar
Chicago-Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co says it bought 350000 pounds of Japanese steel for its Indiana Harbor plant.

Cylinders built in Japan cost over 100000 dollars and arrived in concealed containers. Rehn defends the purchase as a smart business move citing price advantage.
