               MISHAWAKA, IN. JUNE 1, 1994 -- National Steel Corporation
               announced today that its Board of Directors has appointed
               V. John Goodwin, former general manager of USX

               services of a highly skilled steel executive," said Board
               Chairman Osamu Sawaragi.  "Mr. Goodwin's 27 years of

               performance of the products they produce.

               discussing the nature of their future relationship with
