JOHN FRITZ, ~IRoNMAsrER.
And the Part He Played in Our
Modern Steel Industry.
From the Century.
- a

From the Century.
The steel industry has done more to
develop modern democracy than any
other force or influence of our times
Steel inventors and engineers. their
rails and plates, and the locomotives
and steamships transporting the prod
utcs OF western prairies, are the true
explanation of the political u%pheayals
and social changes now witnessed in
Europe.
Such were the theses propounded
often with much incisiveness and en-
phasis by Abram S. Hewitt. formerly
mayor OF the city of New York. who
asserted also. not less bodily, that the
ton in America Of steel for iron
would be equivalent TO paying off the
whole national debt in a few years. 1t
was Hewitt who spoke OF John Fritz.
father of the modern steel industry in
h United States. Al one whose career
was unique among that Of men OF his
day and generation; adding, by COM
mon consent he occupies the first place
in the domain OF practical industry
with which he has been connected"
Yet in all the spectacular piling up
OF huge wealth from steel, the creation
OF colossal corporations. the fierce out
bursts of sensationalfsm, the tremend-
GUS Interpreting Of politics and
finance. the tiresome focusing of the
limelight OF publicity on one million
| aire after another. and the ceaseless
efforts of the muckraker t. drag an
other ancient or new scandal from the
Stag heaps, nobody has ever seen
mention of any kind or degree OF
John Fritz, IN whose honor the -four
great national engineering societies
have founded a gold medal IN recog-
milton of his worth and work-the
only American for whom such a thing
has ever been done.
The humor and the irony of it
likewise the compliment! On a green
| hill far from the maddening crowd he
has lived in dignity and quiet, at
tanning now his goth year. after a ca,
reer begun long before the American
steel industry was successfully estab-
lished, az 1t was, largely through his
courage. energy and genius.
