Died. Charles Michael Schwab, 77, board chairman of Bethlehem Steel Corp.; of coronary thrombosis; in Manhattan. From counterjumper in a Pennsylvania village grocery store at 16, he jumped tJ the presidency of Carnegie Steel Co. at 35, three years later sold Carnegie to a Morgan syndicate and became the $2,000,000-a-year chairman of U. S. Steel Corp. Because "I wanted to be a tsar" Charlie Schwab got out of U. S. Steel and founded Bethlehem, which during the first two years of World War I sold $225,000,000 worth of munitions to Great Britain and Russia. Drafted by Wilson as director of the Emergency Fleet Corp. in 1917, in two years Schwab put a U. S. Merchant Marine on the seas. After the war he went back to making and spending millions: he hobnobbed with Sir Basil Zaharoff, Lord Rothermere and the King of Sweden at Monte Carlo, built an $8,000,000 chateau on Riverside Drive, bought a 1,000-acre estate at Loretto, Pa., his birthplace. In the depth of Depression he never lost his faith in big business. Said he: "I am an optimist by nature. Something is bound to happen." But for the first World War's great profiteer and patriot, World War II came 18 days too late.
