Douglas McKaskey, { pan | many and Great Britain, which were B isfaction to the country generally was the elimination of the 12-hour day in the steel industry. Mr. Gary had been in favor of this move a long time, and it was before the hoard of directors many times. Finally, in the early part of 1923 a committee of the Irion | and Steel Institute made a survey of the whole question. Its report was to | the effect that it was impossible to abolish the 12-hour day because the change would require too many addi- tional men (Mr. Gary estimated the number at 60.000), that there was a | shortage of labor at the time and that | to make the change abruptly would cripple the entire prosperity of the | country. 1 When the report was made public, | the late President Harding manifested his great interest in the subject and his keen disappointment in the failure of the committee to recommend the change. | He wrote to Mr. Gary in June, 1923, and, after expressing his disappoint- | ment, said: “I am wondeving if it would not be possible for the steel industry to con- sider giving an undertaking that be- fore there shall be any reduction in the staff or employes of the industry through anv recession or demand for steel products, or at any time when there is a surplus of labor available, that then the change should be made from the two shifts to the three-shift basis. I cannot but believe that such an undertaking would give great sat- isfaction to the American people as a whole and would, indeed, establish pride and confidence in the ability of | our industries themselves to solve mat- ters which are so conclusively advo- cated by the publi it President Harding's appeal was suf- ficient to prompt Mr, Gary to call a meeting of the board of directors of the Iron and Steel Institute, with the result that he wrote to President Hard- ing: ndoubtedly there is strong senti- ment throughout the country in favor | of eliminating the 12-hour day, and this we do not underestimate. On ac- count of this sentiment, and especial- ly because it is in accordance with your expressed views, we are deter- mined to exert every effort at our command to secure in the iron and steel industry of this country a total abolition of the 12-hour day at the earliest time practicable.” Planned Steel Merger. That time came within a few months and the 12-hour day, long a mooted question in the steel industry, was abolished. : The rise of Mr. Gary to be the chief executive officer of the United States Steel Corporation—he was chairman of the executive committee and later of the board of directors and of the finance committee—may be said to have been due to an incident in the practice of law, for which he was educated. In 1898, as general counsel for and a director of the Illinois Steel Co., he was called upon to take charge of the organization of the Federal Steel Co., a merger of the Illinois and other companies. It was he who first suggested the amalgamation, and it was here for the first time he was brought in touch with the late J. Pier- pont Morgan, whose financial assist- ance was being sought in the forma- tion of the mew company. Gary's business ability so impressed Mr. Morgan and his assoclates that they insisted upon Mr. Gary being made president of the Federal Steel Co. As directing head of the Federal Steel Co. Mr. Gary saw the larger possibilities of the industry and had often expressed his views to Mr. Morgan. The latter at first did not take to the idea advanced by Mr. Gary for a great steel corporation. However, there came a_ time when it became known that Andrew Carnegie, then the foremost man in the steel industry, was dsirous of retiring so that he could devote the rest of his life to philanthrophy, education and world peace. Gary wanted to have a steel com-. that could compete with Ger- dominating the international market. Morgan finally decided to give his hacking to the formation of a giant ecl merger along the lines Gary had proposed. With the organization o: the United States Steel Corporation the business created hy Mr. Caypegie was purchased in 1901 for $392,006,160, and in all 10 large companies were taken into the merger with a combined capi- tal of $867,550,394. It was the biggest undertaking in the industrial world and the financial world gasped when the corporation announced its plans for an authorized capital of $1,100,- 000,000 in stock and_$304,000,000 in bonds. Charles M. Schwab became president and Mr. Gary chairman of the executive committee. Growth of Corporation. great corporation under Mr. direction grew apace until it me a dominant factor in the steel de of the world, with 36 foreign of- fices and 136 distributors in 44 foreign countrie: Its ships sailed the seven seas. Everything about the corpora- tion—property holdings, output, money invested dividends—grew to such an extent that the United States Steel The, United States Cavalry, has been ri lieved from duty at the War Depart ment and ordered to the Army War College, Washington acks, for duty as a student. ¢ pessband Corporation came to be regarded as greater than anything that had even been imagined in the industrial world.
