S. Steel 'following U..S. Ruling ah legal problems relative to Jale of Geneva steel plant '? cleared Monday when U. S. torney ueneiai iwu v. vian indered an opinion that the 1 did not violate the anti-it anti-it laws and this greatest of all industrial plant will be "-"cially released to U. S. Steel oration in the near future heir bid of $47,500,000. In its bid, U. S. Steel agreed to jend not less than $18,600,000 or conversion at Geneva and nnn nnn for cold rolline and i plate facilities at Pittsburg, making a total investment .fits own funds of $91,100,000. In his explanation oi uie ae-i9on ae-i9on Mr. Clark made the fol- jiring seven point statement: 1 It will assure the most ef fective use of the Geneva steel iiant for war purposes and common com-mon defense. The bir of U. S. r'teei proposes to preserve for rature emergencies, the original acilities of the Geneva steel :iant in good state of repair for i period of not less than five ears. "2. It will stimulate full em- joyment including employment f war veterans. Employment ill be provided at the Geneva iteel plant proper, the Geneva oal mine, the quarry, and at the imposed new cold reduction fa- ities at Pittsburg, Cal., for ap- uroximately 5000 persons when he Geneva steel plant rate of zoduction is 600,000 tons of roll ed steel products annually. "3. It will facilitate the transition tran-sition of the Geneva steel plant irom wartime to peacetime projection. pro-jection. "t It will encourage and foster fos-ter postwar employment oppor-anities oppor-anities not only in the Geneva tel plant but also in steel-tonsuming steel-tonsuming industries in the west. "5. It will promote production, employment of labor and utilization utiliza-tion of the productive capacity and the natural resources (especially (espec-ially iron ore and coal) and the agricultural resources (through steel used in agricultural ma chinery) of the country. It will foster the develop ment in the west of new independent inde-pendent enterprise. The production produc-tion of steel at the Geneva steel plant should serve to develop additional ad-ditional consuming markets for steel products in the territory naturally served by the plant, particularly in this postwar period per-iod when many companies are reported to be considering the location lo-cation of additional steel-conning facilities. One of the most important factors from the standpoint of consumers of steel is to have an assured source of supply. The operation of the Geneva plant as a part of the integrated operations of U. S. Steel should tend to foster the location of steel consuming manufacturing man-ufacturing plants in the western states. "7. It will obtain for the government, gov-ernment, as nearly as possible, a fair value of the Geneva steel plant upon its disposal, as provided pro-vided in the statement on 'Pricing 'Pric-ing of Plants,' shown in part 111, section (c) of the report to congress con-gress by the surplus property administration ad-ministration under date of Oct. 8, 1945, on disposal of government govern-ment iron and steel plants and facilities." The news of the Attorney's opinion and the ultimate acquirement ac-quirement of the Geneva plant by U. S. Steel met with general approval of Utah county and State of Utah people and officials and the prediction that this area is to become one of the west's industrial centers was felt to have become a reality now. It will mean the location of more industry in the state, a general building boom and greatest of all a home market for our farmers and other producers of every kind. The conversion of the Geneva steel plant and re-employment of former employees is expected to follow immediately on acquirement ac-quirement of the plant by U. S. Steel.
