While a statement of Thomas L. Chadbourne, counsel for the interest- ed companies, which was issued after Youngstown's withdrawal, set forth that “conferences of the other five companies are being continued to de- termine whether it would be advis- able to consider the consolidation of some or all of theb,” little hope was |expressed that the merger negotia- tions woukl be continued. J. A. Campbell, president of Youngstown previously had been agreed upon as head of the proposed merger, serv- ing as chairman of the board of di- rectors and chairman of the execu- tive committee. Executives of the remaining |companies—Midvale Steel and Ord- nance, Republic Iron and Steel, In- land Steel, Steel and Tube of Amer- |ica and Brier Hill Steel—are expect- ed to confer with Myr. Chadbourne and representatives of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., bankers, today to decide upon a course of action. Meanwhile, the reason for Youngs- town's withdrawal following closely upon that of the Lackawanna Steel |Co. which has been purchased by the Bethlehem Steel Corp. remains a mystery. Reports have been current in the financial district for some days that Midvale and Republic were negotiat- ing with the Bethlehem-Lackawanna combine but these have been denied |by Mr. Chadbourne. Youngstown's withdrawal also revived the possibil- |ity of a merger of'that company with | the Inland and the Steel and Tube of America, which was under negotia- tion t\\o years ago anl later aban- five DAILY HERALD, SATURDA PLEASES HAYN[Sl Commissioner Feals Public Is -Back of 18th Amendment Baltimore, May 20.—1In an address before the Baltimore City club today Prohibition Commissloner Haynes ex pressed gratification that commer clubs and simllar organizatio throughout the country are lendin constructive aid in enforeement of the 18th amendment, He cited instanc of clubs adopting resolutions to co operate and sald friends of the amendment are to be congratulate on the spirit such organizations are taking.
