Wallace promises
help for steel firm
United Press International
GADSDEN, Ala. — Gov.
George Wallace promised a Dal
las-based firm that Alabama will
do all it can to help make the
firm’s newly acquired Republic
Steel operation profitable.
In a mailgram sent this week
to Raymond Hay, chairman and
chief executive officer of LTV
Corp., Wallace pledges the
state’s support for Republic
Steel, which operates a plant in
Gadsden.
Wallace said he hopes econo
mic circumstances “will justify
Republic’s growth in Gadsen,”
and said the state “commits its
resources to maximize your pro
fit potential.”
Wallace, who promised Ala
bama will “do everything in our
power to satisfy any future re
quirements you might have for
the facility,” said he would like to
meet with LTV officials to dis
cuss the plant.
LTV last week announced it
would buy Republic and com
bine it with J&B Steel, making it
the second largest steelmaker in
the United States. Shortly later,
there were reports LTV would
shut down basic steelmaking at
the 2,7000-worker Gadsden
plant and another in Buffalo,
N.Y.
LTV officials later said the re
port was based on an analysts’
prediction and not a company
decision.

stealing government grain was
dropped by federal prosecutors
because of insufficient evidence.
Glenn Feilner, 30, the super
intendent of AGRI’s Houston
warehouse, was immediately
congratulated by the five other
AGRI executives, who remain
on trial for the $500,000 grain
theft. The giant grain exporter
also was indicted for conspiracy.
After a lengthy courtroom,
debate over a key piece of evi
dence in Feilner’s prosecution,
LLS. Attorney Richard Turner
unexpectedly moved to drop the
only charge against Feilner.
Feilner gave reporters a
quick “no comment”, but AGRI
vice president Pat Kelvin, who
was among the executives in
dicted, immediately proclaimed
to his remaining co-defendants:
“This is the first justice we’ve
seen so far.”
Kelvin, 51, of Des Moines,
and four other AGRI employees
still face conspiracy charges for
allegedly taking 133,000 bushels
of government owned wheat to
fill an order at the Houston
warehouse run by Feilner.
Also charged are AGRI’s
grain division chief, Jack Wyard,
43, of West Des Moines; Tom
Williamson, 38, of Glive, AGRI’s
transportation director; Michael
O’Dowd, 30, of Houston, head
of AGRI’s Texas operations and
son of company president B.J.
