Title	Eleanor Roosevelt Visits Youngstown Photograph
Subject	Presidents and Politics Transportation Business and Labor Youngstown Sheet and Tube Company Steel industry Canals Roosevelt, Eleanor, 1884-1962 First ladies
Place	Youngstown (Ohio) Mahoning County (Ohio)
Description	This photograph was taken while First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt was on a tour of the Youngstown Sheet and Tube Company's Campbell Plant in November 1939. Shown are (from left to right) Sam Carbon, J.S. Stanier, J.C. Argetsinger, Mrs. Roosevelt, C.A. Davis, and J.H. Krehl. In her "My Day" column, printed in newspapers through the country, she noted that the cost of production in Youngstown was higher than in places that have access to water transportation. She suggested that unless a canal was built, providing access to the Great Lakes, it might be impossible for Youngstown to remain competitive. The photograph was used in a story that appeared in the Youngstown Sheet & Tube Bulletin on November 20, 1939. It measures 8" by 10" (20.32 by 25.4 cm).
