Steel Trust Morality

always refreshing Ebert H. Gary head Of the
steel trust rebukng small fry business for its SINS Business
men and workmen must be aroused to the necessity of
and decent standards of conduct before satisfactory
business conditions will prevail, says the steel king.
Present steel selling prices Mr. Gary declared "wil not
permit reduction until wages further decreased and it
be unjust to further reduce before the costs of
living are lowered"
The steel trust and been since it's organization the
greatest ofteer in America It has uniformly exploited
labor on the hand by paying the lowest
for the longest working day. and the public the other
hand by charging eortonae prices for it's products 1t
enabled to do this by its virtual monopoly of national
resource
The Steel Corporations annual balance sheets show
dollar in net profit for every dollar spent in payroll Mr.
Gary is willing to reduce the price of steel providing the
reduction out of the employees, but not willing to
sacrifice penny of the profits He dare not make another
reduction in wages at present. and hence will not reduce
prices of products.
This sound and decent standard of conduct for the
steel and other trusts but when little business and labor
apply the rule becomes unsound and indecent and
mpedes the restoration of satisfactory business conditions
