NEW STEEL CENTER
IN WEST PLANNED
Firms Cooperate for Control
of Vanishing Iron Ore
Supplies.
BY LEO ]. RYAN.
Written for the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, June 27.-The drama of
steel with its gigantic figures has a
new major plot in the struggle for con-
troll of the diminishing supplies of high
grade iron ores under the ground
The proposal of the new National
Steel Co. to build a second Gary, at
cost of from 100000, 900 to $50 ,0OO, 900, a
few miles from the present Gary at the
southern end of Lake Michigan, is linked
UP with the maneuvering for ore sup
plies. The affiliation of the Cleveland
Cliffs Iron Co., controlled by the Eaton
Mather interests at Cleveland. with
Oglesby Norton e. Co., operators of iron
mines, is regarded as another play for
mine control.
In an estimate made by the business
week, the life of the high-grade ore de-
poSlts OF the Lake Superior County was
recently placed at 25 to 80 years, at the
present rate of consumption.
No New Ranges Found.
This estimate was based on the fact
that no new ranges have been discov-
cred in recent years, that the great
MeSabi Range is nearing its maximum
development, and that the reserves re-
ported by owners do not show a longer
ne, IN the aggregate. Taking into con-
sideration the fact that it Is not GUS
tomary to uncover taxable supplies of
ore faster than they are needed, the
magazine estimates the still existing
Lake Superior supply at $500, 900 900
tons. State tax commissions estimate
the total at only 100000, 600 tons
shipments from the Lake Superior ter
rltory last season were 66,157,359 tons,
-, The struggle for ore has influenced
the makeup OF the two largest COM
paratively new figures on the horizon,
al NJ
Mather interests. The National Steel
Corporation was formed by afflliating
the interests of the Great Lakes Steel
Corporation, which had been organized
IN Detroit solely as manufacturing
company, and Weirton Steel of Wierton,
w. Va, later entrant into the indus
try, with the M. A. Hanna Co. of Cleve-
land. one OF the oldest of the ore COM
panies.
The combination will give the new
National more. than an estimated 40
years supply of ore.
There was time when ore of 66 per
cent iron content was shipped to the
Lake Erie furnaces. Present cargoeS
average somewhere near so per cent.
SOME Of the ore that used to be dumped
on piles at the mines is now being
shoveled up and shipped.
New Steel City.
The proposed new steel city. prelimi
nary engineering work for which has
been done by National Steel on the site
in the sand dunes miles from Gary,
is expected eventually to house about
$4,000 inhabitants. The tract on which
it will be built comprises about 5000
acres, extending up to within a mile of
the Indiana State Dunes Park
Importation of foreign ores, and the
use, through more economical methods
Of treating lower grade ores will be the
sources of iron supply if and when the
higher grade ore resources are eventu-
allv exhausted.

HITLER STRIVES
To- CONTROL
RE|CHSTAG
German Leaders of Parties
Await Struggle for Radical
Domination OF Legislature
By OTTO D. TOLIsCHUs

BERLIN, Sept. is uN.s0.
Powerful German party leaders,
recovered from their amazement
over the sensational outcome Of
elections Sunday, in which the
extremists leaped to the fore
front at the expense Of more
moderate factions, girded for
battle today while the drums of
political war rumbled.
The marching Fascista, em-
powered with 1O7 seats In the
coming Reichstag and led by
Adolf Hitler. pounded at the
administration gates for entry
into the inner governmental
circle, carrying with them the
gospel of Pan-GerInanisrn and a
sweeping reputation Of the Yer
sailles treaty and the Young
plan.
Shocked by Victory
Overwhelmed themselves by the
magnitude Of their victory, Hit
Ter and his associates neverthe-
less began q rapid mobilization
Of advantages and limited at an
ultimatum that unless permitted
to dictate governmental policies,
they would refuse to participate
in any coalition. Their first
move, 1t was believed, will be to
gain control Of the German
police and ReichSwehr.
In the face Of this strong radi.
cal threat from left and right, the
incumbent government under
Chancellor Heinrich Bruening
nevertheless refused to hoist the
white flag. Assured the dominant
support Of President Paul Won
Hindenburg, Bruening did not
hesitate to issue an indirect chal.
lenge to the extremists by de-
termining to present to the new
Reichstag meeting October IL the
same cabinet now in office.
Tax War Continues
The President and Bruening, IL
was learned, decided after o con
ference to battle for their pro
gram Of tax reform, which pre-
cipitated the previous dissolution
and succeeding elections.
The President, it was under
stood. intends to change the gov.
ernment only If defeated, q prob.
ability not unlikely in view OF
Fascist strength.
will Hold On
The logical course open to Hin.
denburg in the event his cabinet
is forced out will be to offer to
DR.. Otto Braun, premier of PruS-
sia and strong man Of Social
ISM" the chancellorship. There
is uncertainty whether the latter
would accept the offer, prefer,
ring perhaps to retain his strate-
gic position as head Of the Prus-
sian state in order to thwart
Fascist intentions.
Another dissolution of Parlia-
ment. followed by dictatorship
and new elections, will be the
last resort Of the President.
Bruening'S one hope for main
tanning the life Of his government
seemed to be the merging Of the
battered moderate parties into one
grand coalition"
