Steel Trusts
 Stock Watered Bureau of Corporations Makes Public Long Ex- pected Report on Big
 Corporation
 NO RECOMMENDATIONS
NO RECOMMEN
Company Capitalized at ST. 4O2,OOO,OO0, but It's Prop erty Was Only Worth $682, 100000.

Washington, July 1-The long ex- pected and much discussed report from the bureau of corporations on the Uni ted States Steel corporation, recently submitted to President Taft, is just made public here.
 Signed by Herbert Knox Smith, commissioner of corporations, the re- port makes no recommendations and is almost wholly narrative in form. MT. Smith declares that restriction of competition was a prime object or the organization of the Steel corpora tion or so called trust"
 Capitalized at S1.402, ,000,0 900. the cor poration. he asserts has tangible prop erty worth only s6S2 100000. By a con- stant re-investment of earnings, how ever, the report points out, much of the water in the company has been eliminated.
 The Steel corporation now owns 75 per cent of the lake ores. having re- gently concentrated it's efforts to se- curing these properties. On this point the report says:
 Indeed, in so far as the steel cor poration's position in the entire iron and steel industries is of monopolistic character, it is chiefly through it's control of ore holdings and the trans portation of . ore.'
 Discussing how "The pending strug- gle of the giants was averted almost over night by the formation of the combinations, taking in 250 subsidiary companies controlling 60 per cent Of the total crude and finished steel pro- auction of the country, the report
 says:
 ness was distributed among a very considerable number of concerns. l There was sharp competition modified by frequent pools of greater or less duration and effectiveness"
 ERA OF COMBINATION. Then came an era of great combi- | nations, the report continues, with
 capitaliza tions ranging from s3o, 900 oOC 1 to s1OO 100000 and mergers of small companies, which instead of eliminat-
 ing competition, threatened to bring
 price cutting on larger scale than | ever before.
 l and when the formation of the United | States Steel corporation was con-
 ceived and brought about. All nine of the companies named\ were com | bined and later the Union Steel com. | pany, the Clairton Steel company and l in 1907 the Tennessee Coal, Iron and | Railroad company were taken over The promoting syndicate putting the
 deal through netted s62,500,00 in cash l PROFITS OF 12 PER CENT. | During the ten years of its opera 1 tion. the report says, the steel trust 1 has paid average annual profits oI ! 1a per cent on the money invested.

 unworked properties, showing that di' | vidends from paying properties mus | be much larger than the average | would indicate. Insisting upon com l putting profits upon tangible prop l erty value basis, the report says tha

CIVIL SERVICE NEEDED

There are some thing connected with municipal government as it is ordinarily operated in American cities that may be profitablyi amended. One of these things is the appointment of policemen. These appointments should be made upon civil service basis, upon a plan similar to that used in the selection of letter carriers by the United States government. Po- licemen are under civil service after their appointment. The rules of civil service should control before their appointments. The whole thing ought to come out of politics.

AN EXTRAORDINARY PLEA

In attempting to defend his inde- fensible opposition to the Income Tax, Senator Stiles Judson uttered 8 most extraordinary plea for Connecticut. In effect, it was this:
 Eff the federal government is to continue to spend billions for Western irrigation projects, it is far better that the poor, people of Connecticut should pay, this money oy indirect taxation on the necessities of life, as they are now paying it, than that the rich should pay it by direct taxation on their incomes, as the income-tax proposes" %
