eliased (he Columbia Steel Cor
poration, biggest organization
on (hi! Pacific Coast.
It is important news for (lie
steel industry, and particularly
important for California, and
all the Pacific Coast States,
when (he biggest steel concern
in the world, hitherto confined
to Chicago, Pittsburgh, (lary,
and Birmingham, Ala., reaches
into the great west, moving
from the Atlantic to the Pa
cific. M
The purchase of the Colum
bia company, with annual ca
pacity of 340,000 gross tons of
steel ingots, shows (he wisdom
of modern industry.
Under antiquated methods
Big Steel would have moved to
Pacific to fight " Columbia
Steel and "try to put it out
of business." Instead the pow
er and intelligence of the big
steel company, directed by
Chairman Myron C. Taylor and
President Farrell, will be con
centrated on making steel, not
devoted to lighting somebody
else or paying doubly for a
double overhead.
M
Mines in Utah will supply ore
for the United States Steel Pa
cific Coast plants for the pres
ent. Later hydro-elect ric power
from the Columbia river may
take the place of coal, if the
steel experts develop, as they
hope to do, slecl production by
electricity, which will mean a
saving heat, and production of
pirc steel of a quality hitherto
never made in quantities
of the "pure iron'' of the Da
mascus blade.

MRS. FALL
CONFIDENT
OF FUTURE
Wife of Convicted Former
Secretary Steadfast in
Adversity Believes His
tory Will Identify Hus
band As Patriot Denies
Financial Aid Received
From Doheny.
Hy Marguerite Young:
Associated Press Staff Writer.
WASH 1 NGTON. Nov. 2. (V)
Mrs. Albert II. Fall said today she
was going back home with her
husband next week as confident
in their future as she was the day
they were married nearly f0 years
ago.
ltuoytMl by a fervent belief that
history will Identify him as "a
patriot," she said today that "the
white flag of surrender shall never
float over me i.nd mine," and with
eager assurance she told of plans
to "work in all directions' toward
bis vindication.
They will return to the home In
101 Paso, Texas, which she owns in
her own name, she said, and after
a brief rest, she will go to the New
Mexico ranch to manage there
"whatever her husband's failing
health will not permit hjm to ac
complish. The ranch will be their
homo until it is sold.
The ranch, Mrs. Fall is confi
dent, will net them something over
the amount they owe Doheny
something to add to her own small
ihcome, which she said is sufficient
to keep the family from want.
J)cnys KupiMH-L
Vehemently and with some in
dignation, she denied reports that
Doheny lias supported them since
their troubles began. Tho family
is, and has been since the crush,
and will be, sustained on tho re
turns from Investments made with
her own Inheritance, she said.
Still maintaining Fall's inno
cence of bribery, he repeated with
spirit: "If he were guilty, 1 would
be." For she had been with him
step for step, she added, since he
was 21 and she 18, and that 48
years ago,
"We aro going to uso every
means to prove our Innocence,"
she said, using the pronoun with a
casualnesH born of having em
ployed it these many decades when
telling of her husband's career.
She smiled as she explained she
always said, "when we were on the
beneli," and "when we were in the
senate," and "when we were In the
cabinet."
One way of vindication 'she sees
is the publication of "the whole
story" by Albert H. Fall. She
wants the world to have a picture
of his romance from prospecting
days, and hopes to see It in print
before she dies. Several writers
already have signified eagerness to
undertake the task, and she is
planning to cooperate now.
