Baum, associate editor of the magazine. "How much steel can the Pacific Pac-ific Coast use?" is the heart nf the Geneva Steel Company's proDiem, according to the article. ar-ticle. "The present moment is obscured, ob-scured, of course, by a universal univer-sal shortage of steel, but the market analysts cautiously say that the West now needs 20 per cent more steel than before the war," Mr., Baum says. "That is not enough to make Geneva safe. There are, however, some charted lines stuck away in the offices of the industry's market researchers which forecast demands de-mands far above that 20 per cent within the next few years. Speaking of Orem the article reads: "Orem obviously Mormon, obviously agricultural it says here, is the 'Steel Center of the West'. "There is a steel plant there, the property of Geneva Steel Company a subsidiary of the United States Steel Corporation. It is the country cousin of the steel industry, a steel plant with hayseed in its hair, a "young barefooted steel plant. With muscles." "Geneva Steel Is bounded by alfalfa, sugar beets and mud flats on three sides. Across the road on the fourth side is Bunker's Bunk-er's grain-and-feed store, which flaunts an aluminum warehouse and carries a full line of general merchandise. There is a modest game preserve on the steel plant's property, and the company com-pany is in partnership with a farmer in a wheat crop flourish ing just southwest of its open-hearth open-hearth furnaces. During the Utah deer season the steel plant manages with a skeleton crew. During harvest seasons staggered stagger-ed absences are arranged so that farmer-steelmakers can take in the crops." The article which is illustrated illustrat-ed by four full-color pictures showing operations at Geneva declares that the plant "....has perceptibly lightened the Utah county burden. Small farmers with new jobs at the steel plant changed the character of their farming to less intensive forms. Competition in truck cropping was eased. Wage income lurnisn-ed lurnisn-ed monev . for mechanization, which was badly needed. The income was not decreased by the change, but a big industrial nav roll was simply added on top of it.
