Sarnia. Jan. 5. -During the final meet-
ing of the 1919 Sarnia city council it was

tion. which recently purchased a large
tract of land on the local Indian reserva-
tion. and this company. under a Cana-
dian charter. would shortly commence
operations here in building the largest
alloy steel plant in America at an outlay
of over 120.000.000.
Solicitors of the Lake Huron Steel
Corporation waiting on the council stated
that the steel corporation under a new
name and charter, with a capital of
120,000.000, Would assume immediate
control of the Lake Huron Steel Corpora-
tion and carry on the alloy steel business.
The principals of the corporation and a
list of those connected with it. it was
announced tonight, would be made
putrlic inhe very near future.
The last action of the 1919 city fathers
tonight was torepeal the bylaw for a
special tas vote on January 9. This vote
was for fixed taxation for the Lake Huron
Steel Corporation. and as the result of
the council's action will now come up
