In The Jungle
By GEORGE PECK

On June 22nd, Francis A. CAL
lery, Vice-President of Consoli-
dated Vultee Aircraft Corporation
speaking for his own and a num-
b er of other leading aircraft
companies, be f ore the House
Naval Affairs Committee which
was holding hearings on the Re-
negotiation Law. declared that
10 the aircraft industry we are
concerned not with war time pro.
fits but with the survival of our
business.
In this column we have pointed
out repeatedly that the Renegot-
iation Law is making it impossi-
BILE for many aircraft industries
to set aside reserves out of pro-
fits adequate to tide them over
the postwar reconvsrsion period.
At the same time we have reiter.
ated again and again that c

corporation should be allowed to
distribute abnormal dividends to
its stockholders as a result of
profits made on war contracts.
1t is apparent from the testi-
mony of Mr.. Gallery that the
airpla n manufacturing COM
panies have neither been enrich
ing their stockholders nor are
they being permitted to store up
adequate reserves against h g
outbreak of peace. As the ma
ton is counting heavily on the
airplane industry to play a lead
ing role in employment during
the postwar period, this is a SER
ious-a dangerous-state of af-
fairs. We quote part of Mr..
Callery's testimony.
Il have had some figures made
up for six large airplane manu-
Browning chief. [volume] (Browning, Mont.) 1941-1953, 1943-08-06

facturers: Boeing. Consolidated,
Douglas. Lockheed, Martin and
North American. In 1889 the
average price of the shares of
these six companies ranged be-
tween SAL 70 high and S22.81 low.
In 1910 the high wss S42.97 and
the low was $25 p. In 1913 the
range 80 far has been $29.97 high
$21.9l low. The present aver
age price is approximat ely $24 80.
1t is clear that stockholders have
not made any profit through any
increased market value of their
shares.
The average dividend Of the
six companies W a 8 $1.06 . r
share in 1889; 81, 96 in 1910; S2.79
in 1941; and down to Sl.96 again
in 1912. Present dividend pay
ments are no higher than in 1910
and, as stated above, there are
no profits. Dividends And l n
crease In Value Of Stocks Are
The Only Two Ways Know OF
By WIFI h Stockholders Can
Benefit. The aircraft t o k
holders have not had the advan-
tage of either of these benefits. :"
This testimony would serve to
prove that holders of airplane
stocks, at least, are not getting
rich as result of the tremeE-
dously expanded production of
the industry. N o war million
aires are being spawned there.
Further on in this testimony. Mr..
Gallery, citing statistics only of
his own company, Consolidated
lVultee, said:
The net working capital after
suggested renegotiation sett | e.
ments as of November 80. 1912
a m o un ed to approximately
SO, 100000. This is only q pei
cent of sales in 1912 ana less
than II per cent of our estimated
sales for t h e current year. ]
hope you will keep this figure of
$4,000, 900 in mind. 1t Is Our
Entire Working Capital And II
Is Equal To About Two Weeks
Payroll"
1t seems almost Incredible that
Consolidated Vultee, in the event
that the war terminated today
} would be able to meet its payroll
Browning chief. [volume] (Browning, Mont.) 1941-1953, 1943-08-06

for but two weeks. Apparently
Congressman Robert A. Grant
(Indiana), member of the Com
mittee, sensed the folly of this
short sighted policy. Toward the
end of Mr.. Callery's TESTIMONY.
he asked him the following ques-
ton:
IF the war were to end sudden
ly and all Of these contracts were
to b e terminated without any
termination clause that would be
of benefit to you to help carry
the load; and without any change
in the renegotiation act t h t
would allow a reserve to be set
up free of taxes; and you had
10000 people looking to you for
jobs and for food = wouldn't you
rather be down in South Ameri-
ca when that time comes?"
To which Mr.. Gallery replied:

ITALY AS BATTLE-GROUND

Allied gains in Sicily and the
assurance from Undersecretary
Patterson-one of the most care
full and accurate of American
spokesmen-that complete vic
tory in Sicily is only a matter Of
days, bear directly on the deci-
sions being made in Rome. So
too, most definitely. does the CO.
gent offer broadcast to the Italian
people by General Eisenhower.
1t is reported that these clear
and generous terms have reached
Italians. not through their press
or radio but through underground
channels and mimeographed leaf
let's.
Apparently the Badoglio re.
gime is either bargaining with
the Allies or sparring for time
against the Germans. Its official
radio line is that the Allies said
they were fighting Fascism and
since Mussolini and the Fascist
Party are gone, they should stop
fighting Italy. Of course this
overlooks the nub of the situa-
tion-Italv lies between the Nazis
and the Allies and still serves as
a base for Hitler's armies. Gen.
eral Eisenhower did not ask the
Italians to put the Germans out.
but merely to stop helping them.
Possibly the only way for Italy
to stop helping Hitler is to let
the Allies in. And probably the
neatest way to do that is secretly
and suddenly so the shift will be
protected 50 far as possible from
Nazi reprisals. Such an opera.
ton may be shaping behind all
the talk. But a resumption of
Allied bombing over southern
Italy is read in some quarters as
a sign that Badoglio has already
rejected the Eisenhower offer.
What Rome is really asking for
is not clear. No realistic states.
man can expect to be allowed to
escape into neutrality after the
course Italy has followed. Rome
could be seeking some assuran-
ces about provisions of coal and
the conditions under which Allied
occupation will take place. Amid
all the uncertainties. occupation
is the key. And unless all IT,
signs are misleading, the Badog-
lilo Government cannot much
longer resist the pressures both
from Allied military power and
its own still suppressed but peace.

Better Dressrnaking'

That women are turning more and

by the rush of dress pattern orders
that have been handled by The

heels of this harbinger comes a fine
and timely book by Ruth Wyeth
Spears, Better Dressmaking," pub
lished by M. Barrows IL Co., Inc, of
New York.
LavishY illustrated with clearly
detailed drawings and charts, this
volume is perfect guide for the
woman who wishes to fashion her
own wardrobe at home. Many OF
the hitherto guarded professional
secrets Of 1lressmakins Are revealed
to the average woman for the hrst
time and Mrs. Spears has even fur
nished color charts to help you in
purchasing materials that will best
become you; there's a chart Of the

identity; silhouettes of variously
shaped figures indicate the type of
garment you should wear to accent
your assets and soft pedal your
liabilities. A section Is devoted to
the very important art Of adapting
patterns to suit your individual f1g-
ure and another chapter deals with
remodeling old clothes and even
