Where's Joe?, undated Digital
Scope and Contents
The film discusses discusses the push and effort toward more productivity in the American steel industry and fear of foreign competition. It starts off with a news report about the first Steel Productivity Conference being held in Washington with top officials of the United Steel Workers and management of steel companies. This was the first conference held after a provision was written into the Steel Labor Contract to address productivity. The rest of the film focuses on the loss of American jobs due to the foreign steel industry focusing on how dominant other countries have become due to American weakness: hedge buying and strikes. Edwin H. Gott chairman of U.S. steel and AISI, I.W. Abel President of United Steelworkers of America, and R. Heath Larry Vice Chairman of U.S. Steel and Chairman of the Coordinating Committee all speak during the film on these issues.
