ing the making Of steel, which he
terms "industry's greatest asset" The
bulletin follows:
The story Of Bessemer steel is one

each without knowledge OF what the
other was doing, reached the same
conclusion about the same time. Both
were granted American patents; but
upon application for renewal. the
patent office held Kelly to be the in
ventor. The world. however, gives
the credit TO Bessemer, and the pro-
cess is known as the Bessemer pro-
cess.
kelly was the maker Of old
fashioned cooking pots and kettles.
II is related that one day he was
observed a point Of incandescence
where there was no charcoal-only
the metal and the air. This led him
to contend that air alone would burn
out the impurities from molten iron
When he developed his fitting con-
verter. his engineer blew such
tremendous blast through the first
charge that iron and all went up as
sparks, to his discontinue and the

He finally succeeded in getting the

Both Kelly and Bessemer we're
baffled by the problem Of regulating
the supply Of afr so that it would not
burn out all the carbon, a little OF
which is essential to steel. Further
more. their products frequently
proved to be brittle, owing to the
fact that the molten metal absorbed
oxygen from the air blast The first
difficulty was solved eventually by
the expedient Of burning out prac-
tically all the carbon. then adding
exactly the amount required for the
specific quality Of steel desired The
second difficulty was overcome
through the addition OF manganese
to take care OF the hurtful oxygen
The latter suggestion was the con-
tribution OF Robert F. Mushet,

achieved the same results by using
