'the officials and directors of the United States Steel Corporation have perform ed a service of inestimateable value not alone to the shareholders of the com pany, nor alone to the general citizenship of the United States, but to every inhab- itant of the civilized globe as well, through defending the widest individual liberty and maintaining that right and justice are not the preperty of a9y privileged class, but the common her tage ef all.
 'sWe have no quarrel with Bnion labor Broperiy functioning in accordance with the principles of justice. liberty and law.
