Roosevelt Wins Steel Settlement as NRA Aid Becomes Law
President Roosevelt secured a steel industry settlement on his recovery lines after long bargaining with captive mine operators in Pennsylvania. The deal grants workers gains, accepts a price concession on rails, and enables a large railroad order likely to employ thousands through winter and spring. Four major steel firms will share a multi million dollar rail order, with U S Steel Bethlehem Inland Steel and Colorado Iron and Fuel among the mills to supply rails and equipment, while government loans to railroads help finance the purchase.
