cussing the controversy over steel
prices between the railroad admins
tration and the industrial board Of the
Department Of Commerce. Ebert H.
Gary, chairmen OF The board Of d.
rectors Of the United States Steel Cor
poration, told its stockholders yes.
terday that IL the railroad administra-
ton had accepted the judgment of the
board for steel products the railroads
would have benefited to large extent
and business would have been stimu-
lated.
He called attention to the fact that
last year the steel corporation paid
the railroads slS9,0o0,0O0 in freight
charges.
The refusal of the railroad admins
tration TO accept the industrial boards
prices Chairman Gary characterized
as "a misunderstanding all around be-
tween the steel industry, the board and
the railroad administration"
"The railway department" Mr.. Gary
said, Seems to have acted on the sup.
position that the industrial board was
appointed to enable the railway de-
partment to purchase commodities at
pr,ces satisfactory to that department
regardless of whether they are fair or
unfair to producers"
! Mr.. Gary declared it was the be-
lief Of the great majority of the steel
trade that the step taken by the In
dustrial Roard in respect to prices was
in the right direction and that the proc
lamation by Director General Hines
in declining to accept the prices "had
