NEW STEEL KING
TO MERGE PLANT? ?
Many Think New Syndicate
Will Be Sprung With Penna.
Company as Nucleus

one more steel king has been placed
on Pennsylvania's long list of indus
rial rulers. He is William IT. Donner,
formerly of Pittsburgh but now Phil
Iadelphian.
BY the big deal. announcement of
which was made Saturday, Mr. Dom
ner became the purchaser of the
pennsylvania Company holdings of
pennsylvania Steel to the extent of
$4,000 shares of per cent. non-com-
muative preferred stock and 46,950
shares of common. The price was
SS6.11 share for the preferred and
$500 for the common. 1t was
learned that Donner not only secured
the Pennsylvania Company's Pennsyl-
vania Steel, along with the same per-
centage of the Reading Iron Com
pany's holdings, but that he took over
quarter of the Pennsylvania Com
pany's holdings of Cambria Steel.
Millions Involved
The Pennsylvania Steel deal repre-
sents turning over of around $S,OOO,-
600 as purchase price. Some time ago
Mr.. Donner exercised his personal op-
ton to buy $3.50 shares of Cambria
at 500 a share. or a total of $2.813,-
600, and the second option just taken
up by the Cambria president was for
similar number of shares at the same
price, making the Cambria stock cost
him in all S5,626, 200. The Cambria
pennsylvania Steel purchases show
that the total cost to Mr.. Donner is
over S15,00O.000. The railroads bought
S25 a share.
1t is understood that Mr.. Bonner
and others associated with him, among
whom is said to be Henry c. Frick,
one of the Pennsylvania Railroad di-
rectors, have bought much of the
Cambria stock in the open market re-
Gently, and that there is no doubt that
they have control. Just how much
was really in this control is known
only to Mr.. Donner and those asso-
ciated with him.
The securing of the railroad hold
ings of both the Cambria and Pennsyl-
vania Steel stock led to conjectures as
to what was to be done with the big
industries by the new steel king and
his followers. Mr.. Donner would not
say whether there was any intention
to merge the two concerns or whether
there was to be built up a strong cor
poration to conduct the Pennsylvania
Steel and other concerns that may be
bought. There are many in the finan-
cial district who think another steel
syndicate is to be sprung to take ad-
vantage of the big ordinary steel busi-
ness and war orders. There is q be-
net In some circles that it is feared
a merger would be interfered with by
the Government, report of a pro-
posed investigation by the Department
of Justice having been circulated while
Schwab was negotiating for Pennsyl-
vania Steel.
The Pennsylvania Steel Company
has for years been one of the big pro-
ducers. 1t operates the big steel
works here and a shipbuilding plant at
Sparrow's Point, near Baltimore;
owns the Maryland Steel Company and
controls extensive mines in Cuba. Mr..
Donner, besides being president of the
Cambria Steel Company, is chairman
of the Pennsylvania Steel Board.

Realizing the value of the Rober-
son Travelogues in supplement the
studies of geography and history in
the public schools, the city school
board has arranged with Traveloguer
Robertson for a series of five special

travelogues will be given on Wednes-
day and Friday afternoons of this
week and three afternoons the fol-
lowing week-all of them to COM
mence after school hours and close in
time to permit the children to reach

educator of ability and the action of
the local school board Is only follow
ing that of the other boards in the
cities the traveloguer visits each
year. His remarkable pictures of for
eign lands and the interesting places
in our home land, together with the
fund of facts and figures which he has
amassed in the twenty-five years of
his travel, go a long way toward Civ
ing school children a better under
standing of distant places
The board was influenced in ar
ranging for the special travelogues by
the educational features 1t recognized
in the pictures from all the foreign
lands" ID. ID. Hammelbaugh, secre-
tary of the board, said. st saw Mr..
Roberson's travelogue on Germany

sible for the enlightenment in Harris

the ARRANGEMENTS because of the
benefits to its readers. The fact that
the board of education has taken
them UP vindicates the Telegraph's
