Schwab Urges Keeping Present Steel Tariff Levels
Charles M. Schwab testifies before the Ways and Means Committee, urging continuation of current duties on steel and iron. He warns radical cuts would harm U S industry, cites rising production costs, predicts open hearth and electric processes will dominate, and notes no intent to alter the tariff despite pressure from other interests. He discusses rail prices, costs of pig iron and rails, and the limited competition in the domestic market. The Bethlehem Steel and U S Steel ex-president also rejects any understood steel cartels and defends stable pricing.
