WASHINGTON, D. c. - RI
valry of Henry j. Kaiser and
u. S. Steel Corporation interests
over the postwar market for
iron and steel production in the
west offers q perfect case history
on the subject of reconversion
and disposal Of war plants. II is
worth looking at because it can
be reduced to relative simple
ity and understandable ele-
ments.
First is the big Geneva Steel
works near Provo, Utah. 1t is a
government o VINE d, Defense
Plant Corporation facility, oper-
ated by u. S. Steel corporation.
It was built at a cost of 204 mil
lion dollars. 1t is probably the
most modern steel plant in the
world today, a beautiful engi-
neering job, the answer to a
steelman's dream.
The other element in the pic
ture is the Kaiser Company's
Fontana plant in the Los Ange-
les area. 1t is privately owned
and privately operated, though
it was built by Kaiser on money
borrowed from the govern
ment's reconstruction and oper-
alton is lis million dollars.
Kaiser has paid back in cash
some five million dollars plus
'o-and-a- half million dollars
the Kaiser company would like
to have set aside as postwar
reserve for reconversion, which
RFC has not allowed.
40 MILLIONS PLEDGED
In addition, Kaiser has ear
marked the earnings of some
of his ship-building operations
in the west to further retire this
debt to the government. There
is now pledged for this repay
men. some 80 million dollars.
Shipbuilding may not continue

f-sODOO1lON Ear ANDGD
Before the war, the western
steel industry had capacity or
100000 ingot tons a year,
though the west bought 4,0OO,-
900 ingot tons.
Today Geneva has a capacity
Z 1000 and the six steel COM
of 100000 ingot tons, Fontana
panies which did business in the
west before the war have ex-
banded their production to l.
100000 tons. The grand total
of 3,250,000 ingot tons is nearly
enough to meet all western
market demands and the west
could be made independent with
relatively small additioal facili-
ties at Fontana and Geneva.
To think that eastern steel
companies will let this expand
ing western market get away
from them without a fight is, of
course, silly.
U. S. Steel thas shown some
interest in acquiring Geneva
for private operation after the
war, and also Fontana. This lat
ter move, however, is generally
regarded in the industry as a
gesture to annoy Kaiser. Kaiser
reacted by saying he might be
interested in acquiring Geneva.
Before either plant is dis
posed of, the costs will have to
be written down so private op-
orators can show a profit.
The prevailing thought In
government being against mo-
nopolies and in favor of compe-
tition, strong argument will no
doubt be made to encourage
Kaiser to add facilities at Fon-
tana, and to sell Geneva to who
ever else will buy-preferably
a company not affiliated with
eastern steel interests.

Do you pride yourself on being literal? Okay, that's fine. But use discretion. Resume Speed doesn't mean-SPEED. Nor does a sign on a superhighway which says Speed limit-55 miles per hour" mean the same speed around corners.
 Discretion is the better part Of valor; but 1t isn't valorous to speed on waterbury's streets or be heed less of traffic signals. It just takes either carelessneS or dumbneSs, and there isn't much distinction between the two if you have assumed the responsibility of driving a ton ot high-speed metal such as a car.
