STEEL PRICES KEPT

H. c. l., GARY SAYS
SSoneln9ed from First Page.)

When ana where he pleases, on terms
L.nutuaiy agreed upon. whether he
does or does not belong to a labor
Union our men generally do not be-
long to labor unions because they
know by long experience It is to their
Sovantage to be free from dictation
py outsiders: that they are RECEIVE
ing as large. or larger, compensation
ana as good. or better. conditions for
themselves and their families as
domination.
We do not combat labor unions as
sucn. we. OF course, acknowledge the
natural right Of labor to organize:
put we insist that a labor organiza-
ton should be subjected to govern
mental control and regulation like
other organisations. Discrimination
by law in favor of or against any par
tacuiar class Is detrimental to the in
teFests OF the general community. It
oontradicts the fundamental prin-
eipies OF our government"

Public Approval Of Decision.
Mr.. Gary said that public approval
OF the recent decision Of the United
states Supreme Court, refusing to dis
solve the Steel Corporation, was prac-
acally universal. and added in this
connection:
80 far AZ the corporation and its
subsidiaries are concerned. we should
not disregard the laws Of the country
or the public interest
It had been the ambition of the
manager OF the corporation, he con-
cluded. to prove that a corporation
may DO possessed of mind, heart and
soul.
Referring to many letters from
stockholders asking why dividends on
the common stock were not increased
Mr.. Gary said that the management
desired to add to the intrinsic value
OF the stock regardless of stock ex-
change quotations, and this principle
sooner or later would be reflected in
increased selling prices.
