Judge Gary Tells Stockholders That
Earnings Depend Largely on.
Lawmakers Demands

NEW YORK, April. 16.-Judge l.. H.
Gary, chairman of the United States Steel
Corporation. told the stockholders at the
annual meeting in Hoboken today that the
earnings of the corporation would depend
h very largely on how much would have to be
n paid in additional taxes. He said that he
had made an estimate of the payments to
: be made under the present laws. and that
they would total approximately $43,000,00
this year. The statement was made fol-
lowing question put to the chairman by
3 stockholder.
That other laws will be passed, no Cne
1t the present time can doubt he contin-
ued. The burden which will be imposed
BY the Government upon corporations and
individuals no doubt will be very large. l
am su,e that no local citizen can object,
provided there is fair and equitable dis
tributon of the burden.
\, These believe are the questions which
are In the minds of all good citizens. Not
knowing what these laws will be, or how
large the burden may be increased. Of course
y Is impossible to state what will be the
4 net result. If the disposition of the law
makers Shall be to secure as much money

ptses which have been suggested. then 1t
oems evident that all the profits or earn

xNiduais may be taken away from those

ing to be the attitude Of the lawmakers.
II the disposition will be only to secure
.ch moneys as are absolutely needed for
oyernment purposes and the distribution

the Steel Corporation would be very large
this year.
Inc corporation has never, before the
W eighteen months had full opportunity
demonstrating how much value there
