Expansion Of Steel Mills
Held Threat 10 Defense
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-T. w. Lip
pert, technical editor Of Iron Age,
said in this weeks issue that we'll
meaning theories had done the steel
industry vast amount of harm by
engaging in a publicity campaign
seeking vast and unwarranted ex-
pansion of United States ingot ca
pacity for defense and other needs.
"Some of the results of this pub
icity campaign are flood of futures
steel contracts. whipping up of
public fears of steel shortages, and
the wasting of energies that should
be used in all-out building of de-
fense," Mr.. Lippert said.
Asserting that mills in the United
States were turning out more steel
than all of the remainder of the
world together, and that the pace
could be maintained or even ad-
vanced as long as the emergency
existed, Mr.. Lippert said:
"The Government so far has failed
to specify how much steel rearma-
ment will require. The Govern
ment, of course, may not actually
know. In any case, steel capacity
today is more than tenfold maxi
mum independent estimates of de-
fense needs. Obviously, therefore,
recent demands for large expansion
of capacity have nothing whatever
to do with rearmament, but rather
would easily cloak theoretical eco
nomic planning which might itself
interfere with defense if forced on
the industry.

 UNIT ORGANIZED
America First Committee Elects Gerald Daily Pres=
 ident; Program Plans

A local unit of the America First Committee was organized last night at the Elton hotel. In an election of temporary officers Gerald Daley was chosen as chairman while John Festa was named secretary of the new organization.
 Plans were put forth for a perti- nent program of action to be fol- lowed in the struggle against groups such as the Committee to Defend America by Aiding the Allies. The need for a local unit of an organi- zation such as the America First was stressed upon by different speakers who condemned the efforts of those who make constant use of the phrase short of war" as smoke screen for their desire for our in- volvement in the European conf1a- grafton because of the beneficial re- action this would have upon their foreign investments. Among the speakers were Gerald Daley, An- thcny Cianciolo and Lester Loiseau VITO represented the Committee for the Preservation of Americanism.
 It was voted upon to send con- gratulatory letters to Senator Bur ton K. Wheeler and to Rush Holt for their untiring efforts in com- batting the real enemies of this country-the war propagandists and their native allies. It was also voted upon to hold an open meeting in the future. Information concerning the organization may be had by calling 3-75O9 or 3-9924.
