SEVEN STEEL
PLANTS FORM
HUGE MERGER
Appraisals Rushed for
Midwestern Com
bine.
WALL STREET AGOG

NEW YORK, Jan. 12.-Appraisals
of plants Of seven Independent steel
companies are being rushed today
preliminary to great industrial
midwestern merger.
The seven companies are: Youngs-
town Sheet and Tube Company of
Youngstown, Ohio; Inland Steel Com
pany of Chicago. Steel and Tube Com
pany Of America, Chicago; Midvale Steel
Company OF Coatesyille, Pa Johnstown,
Pa; Lackawanna Steel Company OF
Buffalo. N. Y; Republic Iron and Steel
Company OF Youngstown, Ohio, and
Briar Hill Steel Company OF Youngs-
town, Ohio
1t will be a triple merger, financial
experts believe. Two groups OF three
and four companies, respectively, will
unite separately first and then combine
to form the nucleus Of a larger amalga-
nation, sweeping in as many smaller
independent steels as possible.
The two groups are:
l. The Youngstown Sheet and Tube,
Inland and Steel and Tube Of America.
This group Is headed by James A. Camp
lell. president Of the Youngstown Sheet
and Steel Company.
>. Midyale, Lackawanna, Republic and
Briar Hill. w. w. Corey, president OF
Midyale, and ]. A. Topping president of
Republic. are working together to unite
this group.
Unofficial reports come from Youngs-
town that the Campbell group properties
have been appraised and the companies
are now ready to combine.
All Wall Street Is keyed up expecting
the accomplishment Of the merger seek
Ing huge profits similar TO those made
when United States Steel combined. The
date IS still a matter Of speculation. Keen
observers say the Campbell group will
come together in a few days; the Corey
Topping combination in some weeks, and
the completed merger IS a matter OF
months.
The method Of valuing the expected
combine is by the total ingot capacity
that Is the amount Of raw steel they can
produce in year. The ingot capacity
of the United States Independent seven
win total 10,O66000 tons of raw steel an
nually The United States Steel corpora
tons ingot capacity IS now 80 100000
United Steel corporation, big rival Of
the Independents, has plants IN all parts
Of the country. The independents are
h6mpered by this lack of centralized
control. BY the merger Of these defects,
# is expected viii be remedled and the
new combine will put the seven indepen-
dents on a paying basis.
