Schwab, chairman of the board of di- rectors of the Bethlehem Steel con pany, in the course of a speech he de- livered at the Lotos club last night an- | nounced that the great ordnance plant ’m Bethlehem of which he was the head was now fifty per cent. greater than the, famous Krupp works at Essen, Germany. At the present time, Mr. Schwab added, the Bethle- of about 1,000,000 rounds of heavy ammunition | 2 month. Mr. Schwab also told of the plans of the company for the addition of a de- partment which would manufacture inch guns of the type which the navy department has decided will constitute the main batteries of the new battleships of the superdread- nought type which the United States is to build. “I think T may be pardoned when I say,” said Mr. Schwab, “that T believe Bethlehem is now one of the great as- sets of the United States, and I may add that the plant will be, in the event that the time ever comes, at the disposol of the United States govern- ment to be used as the government shall see fit, and the United States government shall name the price at which it shall buy the material pro- duced in that plant.” Mr. Schwab spoke at a dinner in his honor, which was attended by more than 500 members and guests of the Totos club. Schwab were President Frank R. Tawrence of.the club, President Eu- gene G. Grace of the Bethlechem com- pany, Samuel Insul, Mayor Mitchel, U. N. Bethell, Samuel TUntermyer, President James A. Farrell af the United Stat Steel Corporation, Ar- chibald Johnstone, vice president of the Bethlehem company; Melville E. Stone, Arthur Brisbane, J. Hartley Manners, Supreme Court Justice Luke D. Stapleton, Dr. Henry S. Pritchett, J. C. Schmidlapp and J. Dodson. In addition to Mr. hwab the speakers were Mr. Lawrence, Mayor Dr. Pritchett, Mr. . Stone. All of the speakers paid tribute to Mr, Schwab as a genius in matters of steel and iron, Mr. Lawrence going so far as to term him a sort of “Tuban Cain” of the twentieth century. In his speech Mr. Grace referred to efforts that were made shortly after the war in Europe started to buy the Bethlehem company, and he told how Mr. Schwab had thwarted those ef- forts, and how at a later date when somebody suggested an inflation of the stock he put his hand down on the proposal. In introducing Mr. Schwab, speaker of the evening, 3 o referred to the situa- tion in the United States as regarded defense, and said that, if the country obtained the wise laws it needed, “American industry need not fear the competition of any other people,” and that this happy situation would be made still more secure if “we cease to be the great, supine. helpless giant that we are today and place ourselves in a position to command, and, if need be, to compel the respect of mankind.” Mr. Lawrence read a letter from Andrew Carnegie, in which the ven- erable iron master, referring to Mr. Schwab, sajd that it' was impossible “to honor Charley beyond, or even up to, his deserts.” Mr. L: who wrence“then presented Mr. Schwab an American ‘‘who, in war or in pe: will make himself felt in the history of his time” as a con- structive genius, an optimist, and a patriot, but not a “captain of Indus- try,” but rather, he added, ‘“a fleld : ican industry.” Mr. Schwab had a very carefully prepared speech but he departed from it every moment or two. Fe began by tracing the development of the steel industry In the TUnited States until today the output of the country’s steel mills is by millions of tons the great- est in the w . This r's output he estimated about 4 0,000 tons, which, he said, was the greatest in the history of the world. There were three classes of men in the United States, Mr. Schwab said, who, in his opinion, should be added to the articles which were intended solely for export. The first class he named as ‘“those legislators who have never learned what American industry is” and who never will learn. The second class, he declared, was the un- scrupulous labor agitator, who ‘tells At the table with Mr. | f the Taboring man that his condition | o'clock. i l OPEN EVENINGS THIS WEEK CHRISTMAS FOR “HIM’ The man who wants to “make himself” a Christmas Present will do well to_see the Holiday Overcoat and Suit Specials that we’re putting out at $18 and $20 The assortment leaves nothing to be wished for.
