Morgan Chooses His
Foreign Sales Man
To Lead u. S. Steel

The House of Morgan has chosen
as head of the United States Steel
Corporation James A. Farrell, SIXTY
four year old president of subsidiary
corporation, tne United States Steel
Products Co. ]. P. Morgan took him
from the subsidiary company, after
calling him up to the Morgan home
for two hours inspection, and had
him made president of the steel trust.
That was seventeen years ago. Now
he has been moved up into the higher
office of chairman of the board Of
directors.
Emphasizes Foreign Trade.
The choice of Farrell is said to in
dicate the shifting in the outlook Of
the steel trust, one Of the key cor
porations in the American industrial
structure. For Farrell has bsen con-
nected intimately with foreign, not
domestic, trade thruout most of his
career. His Pittsburgh Wire Co., the
first corporation he headed, before
the formation Of the trust, sold half
it's product abroad in the panic year
of 1892.
Always Sold Abroad.
When the Pittsburgh Wire Co be-
came a part of the American Steel
and Wire Co., in 1899, Farrell became
foreign sales manager. After This
too was merged with the United
States Steel Corporation, Farrell
handled the foreign commerce Of the
trust. The United States Steel Pro-
ducts Co. was created entirely to deal
in the foreign markets in the products
Of Morgan's steel trust. AS president
IF the United States Steel Co., Far
rell continued to devote his time to
foreign trade.
Dividend Granted.
Therefore the selection of just Far
rell and none other for the chairman

were charged WlUn assault with
intent to kill" The Judges re-
versed the decision of the lower
court in the case OF rrank Cor
bishley, Mike Caradich and Stanley
Paurez.
The shade of Frank Harrington,
former president Of District IL, Him

lea, who about a year ago was ex-
posed as being in the employ of the
Peabody Coal Co., at an annual salary
OF S25,000 appeared with the an
nouncement of the verdict At the
original trial of the men Harrington
not only led an active campaign
against the accused miners, but d.
rected the hiring of lawyer to aid
the prosecution.
The Frame-up.
The Zeigler miners were brought to
trial two years ago charged with as
sault upon a union official who was
present during a meeting of the Zeig-
Ter Local No. 992 of the United Nina
Workers of America of which Henry
Corbishley was president. During 3
fracas which took place, one Of ths
progressive members of the local.
Mike Sarovich, was shot in the stozn-
ach and killed. Many Of the n1iners
alleged that the killing was done By
a notorious Ku Klux Klansman who.
was never brought to trial. Franz
Corbishley, however, was indicted for
the murder as we'll as for the assault
charge. He is now released.
Fight Against Short Weight.
The fight in Zeigler arose out of
the struggle that the local union
there had been conducting against
the Bell and Zoller mine company
which had been steadily short-weixk
ing the miners. The union adminieA
tration in Zeigler fought vigorousW
for just wage payments for the nnta-
ers and as a result came into con-
stant sharp conflicts with the eu1-
ployers. The sub-district union 81.
ficials were present at the unton
meeting on the night Of the fight IN,
an attempt to soothe the anger Of the
miners and to get them to repudiasA
their local leaders.
During the trial, which bore all the
earmarks of a frame-up, the prosecu-
ton filled the court atmosphere with
prejudice against the workers because
of their labor activities and the for
eign birth of many of the defendants.
Despite the efforts of the defense, and
the unassailable proofs of innocence
produced the defendants were found
guilty and eight of them were sem
fenced to long terms.
The defense of the case is con-
Quoted by the international Labor De-
fense, 80 E. Eleventh St., New York.
"Ore Of the big features Of the
case," said j. P. Cannon, secretary OF
the labor de4ense organization, yes
terday, "is the role that was played
by the corrupt and reactionary ma
chine in the Illinois district of the
United Mine Workers Union, headed
at that time by Frank harrington, In
bringing about this fourteen-year
sentence of sincere union men. Frank
Harrington himself has long since
left his position as district president,
as a result of the disclosure of his
acceptance of a salary of $4,000 .

become q commonplace matter for motorists 10 cross
the United States. The network Of roads mapped out
at the Washington meeting provides eight trsnscon-
tinental routes from the Atlantic coast to the Pacific
and nine from the Gulf Of Mexico to Canada Even
in the Old World, where progress in road building Is
far behind that in America, long automobile journeys
are being taken, one of the current magazines. for ex-
ample, describing q motor trip from Western Europe
to India.
The Washington COMMITTEES did well In arranging
to mark the interstate routes designated with uniform
signs. Some private associations of highway pro-
moters have done this in the case Of such interstate
roads rs the Lincoln Highway and the Susquehanna
Trail. and It has served a good purpose, guiding motor
lists through towns and past intersections and making
It unnecessary to stop and inquire directions.
The plans prepared at Washington will nor he

to be imsgined that in a few months there will be

paved in its entirety, although it has been . well

ward has been taken in the facilitation Of long distance
