Of operating costs At the same time,
concentration OF operations also should
produce greater efficiency on the part OF
tho management OF the company.
Much surprise was expressed In the
financial district over the turn which the
negotiations OF the proposed steel merger
had taken, the original plans OF which
were to include the Cambria Lacka-
wanna steel and the Youngstown Sheet
and Tube Company The fact that Mid
vale had acquired Cambria came as n
distinct surprise in that no one had given
a thought to the probability of Midvale
steel figuring in the deal.
Early in the day statement was is
sued at the Offices OF the Cambria steel
Company, following n conference OF the
people interested in the negotiations. This
statement was signed by William ".
