...stayed in a sunny mood. In Washington bars, sports-shirted union men downed their boilermakers and joked with management representatives. With outsiders, though, they were quiet and cautious. "This is one time when steel negotiations are not going to be decided by the media," said U.S. Steel Chairman Edwin Gott. Even the location of the meetings (in the Shoreham North Hotel) was a carefully kept secret. Abel was registered in a large Shoreham North suite, his refrigerator stocked with tonic water, Danish pastries and sardines...
...Steel's earnings amount to only 5% of stockholders' equity-dead last in a field of 22 top manufacturing industries. Most companies have cut their dividends by one-third this year. Even so, the salaries of top steel executives are often huge. U.S. Steel Chairman Edwin H. Gott, for example, last year collected a salary...
...Cantata No. 51, Jauchzet Gott in allen Landen, is one of the most consistently popular of the sacred cantatas. The purity of its vocal settings, when performed by an adequate soprano, places it among the most starkly beautiful of Bach's vocal works.

Much of U.S. Steel's recent activity bears the imprint of Ed Gott, who helped launch the modernization drive and has pressed for diversification. In replacing Blough, who will become a partner in the Manhattan law firm of White & Case, where he worked before joining U.S. Steel in 1942, Gott is naturally careful to give his predecessor proper credit. "We're only trying to complete what Blough started," he says. One of Gott's goals is to lift the company's share of the steel market back up to 30% within the next several years...
