4Ppeasenlenf Program Helped
Only THO Big Corporations

Curlously enough, apparently the
only two big corporations in the
country which profited from the
appeasement' program-during
this short span of life-were the big
electric utility holding companies
which President Roosevelt is known
to dislike SO cordially. One of these
is Electric Bond and Share. The
other is Commonwealth and South
ern.
II will be recalled that one of the
most convincing steps in the So
called appeasement program was
the agreement on the part of TVA
to buy out the interests in Chat
tanooga of the Commonwealth and
Southern, and in Memphis of the
Electric Bond and Share (this lat
ter held through subsidiary.
At the time these agreements
were made, Harry T.. Hopkins had
been talking to senators and mem
bers OF the house as to the necessity
OF doing something to encourage
business.
One OF the main reasons for zap
peasing' the electric industry was
that Hopkins had been thoroughly
sold by the arguments for the pre-
ceding Is months by William o.
Douglas, now on the Supreme court.
that If something could be done to
encourage the electric Industry.
there would be such q flood of spend
ing that It would be almost enough
alone and unaided to produce the
return of prosperity.
But far more important part
OF the appeasement program, and
one which affected all business and
new investment instead of merely
the electric business, was tax revi-
sion.
