(bo ''9ii onroufe to tbr Bulletin No. 2 Why We Are Opposing A Government Armor Plant To the People: Some people say that the very fact that the Bethlehem ?teel Company Is so aggressively fighting the proposal to build a Government armor plant is conclusive proof that the Company is seeking to assure for itself the "vast profits" derived from private manufacture. The fact it that armor making is the least profitable feature of steel manufacture. The reason we; oppose a Government plant is very simple. It is this: Even though there is but little profit in the making of armor, we have invested over $7,000,000 w our tymof plant; That plant is Useless for any othef purpose; if a Government plant is built the useful test of on plant is destroyed. ' It Would be good business for Us to make armor for trie Govern rnent at any price over and above the actual Bhop cost, RATHER THAN SACRIFICE QUR ENTIRE INVESTMENT We do not seek to save big profits; our purpose is very frankly id save1 our armor plantitself built solely for the dse of the1 Government from going to the scrap heap. yp do thatj ve are prepared id agree for any period to an terms of manufacture frhich the Federal Trade Commission shall gay absolutely protects the Government tf the United States. .
