EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, created by Harris & Ewing on January 12, 1912, captures a pivotal moment in American history. The image depicts the Special Committee On The Investigation of The U.S. Steel Corporation, also known as the 'Steel Trust Investigating Committee' or the 'Stanley Committee.' The committee was formed in response to growing concerns over the monopolistic practices of the United States Steel Corporation (not the company itself) and the potential negative impact on the American economy and workers. The photograph features the committee members in session, including Representatives Young of Michigan, Bartlett of Georgia, Stanley of Kentucky (Chairman), Beall of Texas, Littleton of New York, and McGillicuddy of Maine. The group is seated around a large table, with Chairman Stanley presiding, as they delve into the complexities of the steel industry. The image is an essential piece of American political and industrial history, providing a glimpse into the inner workings of Congress during a time of significant change and reform. The photograph is part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, which documents the social, political, and cultural landscape of the United States during the 20th century. The photograph's composition and lighting showcase the professionalism and seriousness of the committee members as they embark on their important mission. The image is a testament to the power of photography as a historical record and a reminder of the role of government in shaping the American industrial landscape.
