the American steel industry in con
ference here under which the en
tire product of the Industry would

ment's war purposes at a price to be
determined on the basis of a cost
of production inquiry being con

mission.
On their side the government rep

try to meet new demands.
The government also assured the
steel men that its war orders would
be distributed over the entire iron

THURSDAY EVENING,
the Navy, the chairman of the ship
ping board, and Mr. Baruch, further
discussion was had of the prospec
tive demands upon the steel industry
of the country for supplies of various
steel products for carrying on the
war.
"The steelmen repeated their as
surance that their entire product
would be available for the need and
that they were doing everything pos
sible to stimulate and increase pro
duction and speed deliveries. The
price to be paid for the iron and
steel products furnished was left to
be determined after the inquiry by
Federal Trade Commission is com
pleted, with the understanding that
the price, when fixed would insure
reasonable profits and be made with
reference to the expanding needs of
this vital and fundamental industry.
"The representatives of the gov
ernment assured the committee of
the steel institute that it was the in
tention of the government to dis
tribute the war requirements over
the entire iron and steel producing
capacity of the country."
May Increase Output
Manufacturers participating in the
conference which began yesterday
are headed by Elbert H. Gary and
constitute a special committee of the
American Iron and Steel Institute.
President Wilson's statement, pub
lished to-day, outlining his views on
the question of prices, has given all
manufacturers a definite outline of
the policy the government is follow
ing in arriving at a fair rate of pay
ment for the war materials it needs.
So far as the present steel confer
once is concerned, however. Secre
tary Baker declared that the ques
tion of price had not been taken up
and would not be considered pending
a report from the Federal Trade
Commission.
The conferences had more to do
with tonnage capacity and possible
increase in the output of the in
dustry.

Not Sure Whether He Can
Accept Governor Brum
baugh's Call to Duty
I Democratic National Committeeman
| A. Mitchell Palmer, who Is making
1 such a desperate effort to stay in the
I public eye. yesterday took his trou
! bles to Washington. Palmer started
| out some time ago to make political
I capital by assailing Governor Brum
i baugh because of the personnel of
i the conscription boards, complaining
1 that deserving Democrats were not
| named thereon. The Governor showed
j his idea of exemption boards, which
I will review the work of the conscrip
| tion boards, by naming not only
| Palmer, but National Chairman Mc
| Cormick and nine other Democrats in
the forty-five.
J The Governor caught Mr. Palmer,
j The Monroe statesman said at Wash
ington that the 'Governor's motives
I were obvious, and then he made this
| declaration:
"As for myself. I do not know yet
whether I will accept the appoint
ment.. Like every other local citizen.
1 do not wish to appear to be a slack-
I er or shirk any duty that is assigned
j to me, and yet I am sincere in the
j feeling that officers of political or
j ganizations should not be named on
i the local bonrds or the appeal boards.
Of course if other politicians are to
serve in such capacity and the objec
tions I raise are not to be observed,
j perhr.ps it would be all right for me
I to accept..
The Governor last night announced
I these changes in conscription boards:
