Approximately fifty additional young men in the Torrance gen eral area have Indicated their willingness to join Ihis group, and the next nftcting will be subject to the call of the presi dent, announcements of which will be made in this newspaper in the near fulure.
The Junior Chamber of Com merce is a civic organization for young men of the ages outlined It augments the work of Ihc .senior Chamber of Commerce and does not interfere or con flict with the work, policies and principles of the senior body. It supplements the activities and dovetails with the programs and projects of the senior body.
Speaking of the reasons the senior Chamber of Commerce decided to sponsor the junior group, Rued H. Parkin, president of Torrance Chamber of Com merce and secretary treasurer of Doak Aircraft Co., said: "The young men owe a debt of grati tude to the city which provides theni a home and the privileges of citizenship. Through the Ju nior Chamber of Commerce, youg men are given opportunity to do their part In civic service pleasantly and profitably, and at the same time make a definite contribution to the war effort and the post-war era. Young men have a personal gain as well in civic service, even beyond the knowledge of duty well done. The greater part of a young man's life is ahead of. him. Any thing that he does now to train himself and develop his abilities assures him direct returns in the-years to come.
"Building for the future of his community rs certain To "pay" dividends to a young man in later life. Every young man has a 'stake' in his community. Whatever he may do to Improve his city is an assurance that the eventual return on his invest ment will be greater. Your new organization will assist- all of you In planning the post-war world."
Harry B. Lewis, executive sec retary of the Torrance Chamber of Commerce, congratulated the group on their courage in form ing the new organization in the face of many hardships to be en countered, such as reduced membership through action of Selective Service.
"Despite these obstacles, you young men can perform a signal service to your community, your stale and your nation," he said. We cannot over-emphasize the ivic services available to you
young men, first, because Junior Chambers of Commerce through out the United States have done and will continue to do notable and outstanding community' building work, and secondly, be cause every young man has a natural desire to do his part in making his city a better place

United States Steel Would Buy Two Government Owned Western Mills
United States Steel Corpora (ion has advised the U.' S. gov crnmont that It Is Interested In discussing a possible basis of purchase or lease of the govern ment-owned steel plant at On neva, Utah, for post-war opera tlon, Wllllahi A. Ross, presldcn' of Columbia Steel Co., United States Steel's Pacific coast sub sidiary, announced Tuesday Ross' statement follows:
Recent discussion In the press about the possibilities for the post-war production of steel west of the Rocky mountains have led some exponents of the further Industrial development of the far west to jump to the conclusion that United States Steel Corporation and its Paclfl coast subsidiary, Columbia Stce Co., have litlle Interest In thi future of the new government owned steel plant at Geneva Utah.
Any such impression Is quit contrary to the truth. This plant In Utah was designed am built for the government by Co lumbia Steel Co., acting on be half of United States Steel Cor poration, and Is now being op nrated for account of the gov eminent by another subsidiary of United Stales Steel, such con struction and operation being i war project undertaken by thi Steel Corporation without an: fee or profit.

of the far west. It recognized the importance of Pacific coast steel markets and their poten tialities, when it acquired Colum bia Steel Co., in 1030. This com pany then had and now contin ues lo maintain a' fully inte grated steel operation west of the Rockies, with coal and iron mines and a blast furnace and by-product coke ovens In Utah, and steel producing and finish- Ing facilities near San Francisco and Los Angeles. During the past few years, Columbia's steel finishing facilities In California have been substantially extend ed and modernized by the ex penditure of large sums of
Columbia Steel Co. has plans for further enlargements and modernization of Its facilities to keep pace wllh the . Industrial growth and development of the Pacific coast area. Undoubtedly the acquisition of the govern ment's steel mill at Geneva up on some mutually satisfactofy basis and the installation of any equlred additional finishing fa milies could be made to fit in with this post-war 'program, without causing the abandon-- ment or curtailment of Colum bia's existing modern facilities In California.
In a recent letter to Ihe chair man of Defense Plant Corpora tion, the government agency owning the Geneva steel mill, Benjamin F. Fall-less, president of United States Steel Corpora tion, stated in part:
We also wish to take this opportunity to advise' you that
such time as either or both of the plants at Fontana and Geneva are no longer needed for present or future war ef forts and disposal of the facili ties to private interest's Is under consideration, we would be In terested In discussing with your representatives a possible basis of purchase or lease of all or a part of such facilities for opera- lion as part of the Columbia Steel Co.
'In the event we were able to arrive at a mutually satisfactory arrangement for either the pur chase or lease of all or part of such facilities, we would expect to undertake to operate-them at as high a rate of capacity as would be warranted by the mar- <ct for their products In the territory naturally served by their facilities."
Referring to the effect of such an acquisition upon the overall"
1 making capacity of United States Steel Corporation, some of which is now less efficient :han the new plant at Geneva, Fairless stated:
"We anticipate that such ac quisition of these facilities would be accompanied by reduc tions or displacements In exist ing capacity so that our basic sleet-making capacity would not be increased in the post-war period."
In view of the recognition both by United States Steel Corpora- Ion and Columbia Steel Co., of
the importance of west coast iiarkets for steel and Ihese com panies' desire for further Indus- rial development In the Far
West, there should-be no nils- understanding about their inter ested attitude toward taking he necessary steps at the prop- T time to meet the post-war
steel needs of these markets, (
