ROOSEVELT SAYS He
PREVENTED PANIC
Tells Committee He Approved
Steel Merger to Save
Country.

New housekeeping full respon.
sibilty for his approval of the COB.
bling up of the Tennessee Coal & Iron
Company by the steel trust during the
panic of 1907, Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt told the Stanley steel in
vestigation comm. ttee that the mer.
ger was necessary to save the coun-
try from financial calamity
The former president asserted that
E. H. Gary and Hency c. Frck, who
visited the White House to secure per-
mission to absorb the Tennessee com
pany, told him that it was the only
way to stop the panic. With old
time vigor and emphasis, Roosevelt
reviewed the panic. He declared his
one object was to prevent disaster
For two hours the members of the
committee bombarded him with ques
tons. In summarizing the testimony
at the close of the investigation
Roosevelt declared:
Cali the information I had at that
time and all the information l have
received since leads me to believe
that not only was my action justified
but that I would have been criminal,
In my position as representative OF
the people of the United States, had
failed to take such action"
The ex-president's action in appear
ing voluntarily and submitting to a
congressional review of his own ad-
ministratiOn was almost unprece-
denied in the history of the United
States, and was thoroughly Roose-
yeltian.
