The Washington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON fMajor Robert s. Allen on active duty)

WASHINGTON-Eighteen months ago one of the biggest backstage fights in the Administration was whether to build more steel mills. The business usual boys argued that we had enough steel, that after the war we would be over produced, that the United States already was the greatest steel making nation in the world.
 Some of the so-called Brain Trusters took different view. Leon Henderson, Isador Lubin plus Ad- miral Emory Land demanded that more steel mills be built immed- lately. Finally they won partial victory.
 One of the fighters for more steel production was far-sighted Senator Joe O'Mahoney of Wyo- ming, who on July 23. 1941 went on record with a warning which the $1 men laughed at-that raw material shortages would drasti- cally handicap war production.
 Senator OMahoney also argued that big steel mills, covering acres of ground and in themselves using up tons of steel for construction, were not the solution. Instead he proposed sponge iron furnaces which he contended were much smaller. more efficient, and could be built at the mouth of the iron mines.
 O'Mahoney pointed out that in the Rocky Mountain states were mountains of iron ore untouched, partly because the big steel com- panies of the east did not want competition to get started in the west
 OMahoney kept hammering this thesis until finally he has wiggled out of Congress a meager appro- priation of $60O,0O0 to set up two pilot plants, one at the Univer- sity of Wyoming, the other in Missouri. to try out western ore in sponge iron plants.
 The experiment will be woefully small, but at least it is a begin ning-which may revolutionize the
