The 1905 were tough years in the steel
business. Stockholders were getting no div
idends Some years showed huge net losses.
Many people said: 1.-THE country is over-buit.
1t has more steel plants than it can use'
Right in that lean period United States
Steel decided to invest $6OO,OOO,O0O in putting
it's plants into tip-top condition, and adding
some big ultra-modern plants.
There was no talk Of war then. This plant
investment was made simply on faith in the
future of the country. The United States
always had come back; it would again.
How fortunate for America at war that
this $600,000,000 was invested.

It's a good thing we spent
$600,000,000 in
the hard depression years

War production is months ahead of where
it would be otherwise.
United States Steels production this year
will surpass the peak year of 1929 by more
than six million tons
United States Steels production of ship
plates is greater today than the ship plate
capacity of the entire steel industry in 1882
The manufacturing plants of the United
States Steel Corporation alone produce more
steel than Germany. But we are still not sat-
