way. Several years ago when Carnegie
was the steel king of America, he
established a profit sharing scheme in
his plants. "Give them an interest in
your business and stir their ambitions
was his motto. That motto produced
Schwab. 1t in turn produced Grace,
and his enormous income.
The president of the Bethlehem Steel
Company believes in work. He
punches the time clock, just as a pud-
dler out in the yard punches his card,
and his clock is set for s a. M. He is a
devourer of work. His &C ions, like
his words, are decisive. Always on
the alert, with a quick business sense,
he makes up his mind without hesita-
ton. His mind is not "a single track
for he has the keenest memory of per-
haps anyone on the payroll of the COM
psny. He is courteous and pie asant.
Anyone with a purpose may gain &C
time firm and dislikes dallying. He
expects his visitor to go right to the
point, but possesses the rare faculty of
giving his caller that impression with
out offense. He carries a remarkable
wealth of information on almost every
subject relating to the steel industry.
If a mar with a wal axe to grind in
his enthusiasm gets facts tangled with
fiction. MIR. Grace firmly, but politely,
sets him right. His athletic figure,
tall aud slim, clothed in a quiet suit of
blue, speaks power. His employees
are his staunchest admirers. The works
at South Bethlehem present more the
appearance of a modern breakfast food
factory than a steel works, for flowers,
walks, light and sunshine are plentiful
| ly intermingled with steel ingots and
coal heaps. The profit sharing system,
with its resultant organization, has
made the region surrounding the steel
works a small kingdom in itself. Eu-
gene G Grace rules the realm, and it
is significant that strikes are rare in
Bethlehem Steel companies.
Mr.. Grace is Al years old, is married
and has three children.

Eugene G.. Grace, a ssNeW
Giant Of Wall Street."
From the Brooklyn Eagle.

OF all the steel giants who batted in
the Financial League in the old days,
Andrew Carneg e cracked out the
most home runs with the bases full.
His average is rated by the statisticians
as we'll above 400. In stealing bases
he was a marvel. He caught j.. P.
Morgan sleeping off second, which re-
duced Morgan's field average for life
to 1893. Morgan was playing on the
United States Steel team that time.

will never forget the time Andrew

Elected President OF Bethlehem
Steel Company In 1912.


At last there was a meeting in 1912
When the directors of the corporation
met, it was noised abroad that Schwat
had said there was to be a new presi.
dent for Bethlehem Steel. There was.
He was Eugene q. Grace.
And right here, lest people believe
that Charles M. Schwab is Bethlehem
Steel, let is be known that Eugene G,
Grace is very much a president,
Schwab doesn't select his men for the
nice things they say about him. He
wants results, and results come from
big men, not figureheads.
Schwab learned his lesson from Car.
negie. Schwab was coaching back of
first the time Andrew stole second on
Morgan.
The wne of the Carnegie Steel
Company wanted to sell his corpora
ton to Morgan and Morgan did not
enthuse over the price Andrew asked.
1t began with the national Tube Com
pany. Morgan owned National Tube.
Carnegie owned the steel mills from
which National Tube obtained its
material. When Morgan figured he
would SAVE money by buying a mill
for himself and his National Tube
Company, Carnegie said he would
build a tube mill himself. Andrew
had a way of doing things he said he
would.
He then threatened to parallel the
Pennsylvania Railroad with a new
trunk line, whose chief purpose for all
Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1916-06-16

time would be to take away trade from
the Pennsylvania and put money into
tue pockets of the Carnegie family.
Morgan was not afraid and did not
buy. Andrew didn't steal second
then.
With the inspiration of a lifetime,
Carnegie called his president to The
side lines. T lat president could talk
money from the vaults of the stonie-t
bankers Into his business. He was
Schwab. Schwab went to a dinner, at
which Morgan dined. His sp ech was
the steel company of the future. Nor
gan, who was, like James J. Hill, a
dreamer of empire, listened to the
speech and began to dream. And Car
nets :, stole S cond. Morgan's corpor-
alton paid S492, 900, 900 for the Car
negie Steel Company when U. S. Steel
vas organized.
Schwab was a financier himself. He
resurrected Bethlehem Steel. He has
made it grow into the greatest of the
independent steel companies. 1t has
branched out, until it makes every
thing from a dreadnought to a steel
washer. 1t is one of the sweetest "war
bridesu of the season,

Grace Began His Career In a
General Store


He was born at Goshen, N. j., on
August 81, 1876. His father kept a
general store there and young Eugene
spent his idle time learning TO keep
books and clerk, as well as run errands
and clean shop. While the other boys
of his acquaintance were playing ball
in the lots on the outskirts of the town,
he was busy in the store. He studied
at night, went to grammar school and
by saving every penny he earned, he
was able to put himself through Penn
ington Seminary.
He went to Lehigh and kept up his
studies, winning the freshman prize
in mathematics. He went out for
baseball and made the team, playing
shortstop. Those were the halcyon
days before the advent of the freshman
rule. In his sophomore year he won a
$500 scholarship and led his class
The last two years at college he was
captain of the varsity nine, and the
name of Grace to a Lehigh man rings
with the same lofty triumph that
thrills a Harvard graduate at the
mention of Brickley, OF Yale man at
the name of Tom Shevlin, for Grace
led his team to victory over Princeton
and Lafayette, the traditional foe of
Lehigh.
The cartoonists at this time of the
year love TO portray the unhappy lot
of the senior thrown out upon a world
that merely smiles at college victories.
Sad Is his face and cruel is the smiling
world. Grace, besides being captain
of the baseball team, was valedictorian
of his class, and according to tradition
and the cartoonists-he should have
begun life as an office boy.
Instead, he entered the employ of
the Bethlehem Steel Company. All
his life be had striven. The world
held no new terrors for him. His
initial salary was about SIS a week
and he took hold of his new work,
mental work, in which his hands
were grimed and his wages were earn
ed with the sweat of his brow, with a
will that won him steady promotion.
Gets a Salary of only 500 a
Week
He only earns 500 a week now, as
president. The Bethlehem Steel Cor
poration does not pay large salaries.
Schwab learned from Carnegie a better

Bethlehem Steel and the War.

Such is the corporation that Eugene
G. Grace was chosen to lead into the
paths of profitmaking. When he as
sumed his executive duties there was
no war-yet Bethlehem Steel was a
promising investment. :
When the war broke out, Bethlehem
Steel lost no time in preparing for the
demand that was sure to come from
Europe.
Just how much was due to Schwab
and how much was due to Grace is
impossible to say, but it is safe to as
sumo that Grace was a leading figure
in the councils of the company, for
Schwab picked him for that purpose,
and Schwab has not mistaken his man
yet.
The orders came and all the world
knows what happened to Bethlehem
Steel and South Bethlehem. The Beth
lehem Steel Company controls or owns
outright the Juragua Iron Company,
the Bethlehem Steel Products Com
pany, the Philadelphia, Bethlehem
and New England Railroad Company,
the Bethlehem Chile Iron Mines Com
pany, the Mining Produc S Transpor-
tation Corporation, the Saucon Land
and Improvement Company, the Fore
River Shipbuilding Company, the
Titusville Forge Company, the Derrick
and Harvey Machine Company, the
Union Iron Works, the Union Iron
Works Drydock Company, the Harlan
and Holdings worth Corporation, the
Samuel l.. Moore & Sons Company,
the Bethlehem Iron Mines Company
and the Cheever Iron Ore Company.
That was Grace's empire. 1t stretched
from Chile to Quincy, Mass. 1t mined
iron in Chile. 1t built the U. s.
dreadnought Nevada at Quincy, To-
day, because he batted at the head of
the League, Grace has an income of
81, 900, 600.
The romance of commerce has been
treated in book form already. But no
romance ever read with more absorb
ing interest than the omanc of the
life of Eugene G. Grace.

League. One of Carnegie's stars Las
been plotting a champion team for
some time past. Manager Schwab,
with his Bethlehem Steel team, is we'll
known in champion series. Schwab
has al all-star team, headed by Eugene
G. Grace.
Grace broke into the game at Lehigh.
He worked his way through col lege
but even more precious to Lehigh men,
he ~captained the nine that beat Lafa-
yette, and took a fall out of the Prince
ton Tiger. With his collage record be-
bind him, the Financial League went
after him, waving a contract which
promised much but which paid very
little. He was sent to the yard at
Bethlehem and there told 10 bat 800 in
the tonnage game. He did it.
He vas drafted to the open hearth,
where he made the sparks fly. One,
Charles M. Schwab, always on the
lookout for new material for his bat
ting order, happened to stroll into the
shed.
"Who's that rookie over there ?u he
asked the foreman.
"Oh, that's Grace. He's a college
chap" the big boss was told.
81 see,n commented Schwab, and
passed on, while the foreman stared
and envied the wealth of his boss and
failed to note the pe%rspiration pouring
from Grace's brow.
or course, Grace did not stay in the
open hearth department long. Beth
lehem Steel has one of the most per-
feet systems for graduation from one
department to another of all the pro-
gressive corporations in the country.
Grace was an electrical engineer. His
progress was rapid. His superiors all
spoke well of him, some with a feeling
of apprehension, for in Schwab's plant
the best man wins, and Grace had an
uncanny way of turning out the best
man in almost every department he

Snow Covers Wildwood
Another cold wave forming in the
Western States is following the third
snow storm of the week across the
continent and from present indications
will Keep real winter weather over the
northern section of the United States
during large part of next week.
Shifting winds last night with the
intense cold caused large snow drifts
In the country districts and in some
places roads were closed. Trolley
service to Linglestown was cut off be-
cause of the drifts.
Owing to the snow storm of yester-
day morning Wildwood lake is cover
ed with a white blanket over the sheet
of ice, but with continued cold may
be safe for skating on Monday.
Should the cold wave continue indefi-
nitely part of the lake may be cleared
for skating by the park department.
Many of the smaller streams and
lakes were crowded last night with
skaters, and hundreds of youngsters,
taking advantage of the snow-covered
streets. had merry time coasting
down the hills.
The ice on the river is rough and
uneven, and according to Forecaster
Domain is unsafe for skating. The
park department also announced this
morning that Wildwood lake Is not
