Whuf Happened To The Millions?

VV,HE BUCHANAN LOBBYING Committee
Il of the House of Representatives, now en-
gagged in investigating lobbying practices in
Washington recently came upon a startling
discovery in their probings. The Committee
discovered that group of large corporations
admitted the spending of $50, ,124,835 in a spe-
cial survey while this same group of corpora
tions reported the expenditures of only $776,-
446 in their lobby registration reports sub
mitted to the government.
Now Sens Ebert d. Thomas (Utah), Muir
ray (Mont), and Green (RI) are demanding
a complete investigation to find out what hap
pened to these millions of dollars supposedly
spent to influence pending legislation in the
Senate and the House.
Good idea. We, too, would like to know
why, how and where this huge sum was spent
We, too, would like to know why these cor
porations did not report their total expendi-
lures as required by the government.
Surely the people are entitled to know the
facts

of 37.5 per cent. This wage increase was almost
totally wiped out by 281 per cent increase in the
cost of living One might say, based on these fig
ures that there a slight net increase in our
real wages. But that isn't so. For what appears to
be an increase wiped out by the fact that labor
productivity during this same period rose by IL
per cent So, the net result is that workers were
unable to maintain their relative positions in
the wage price relationship while corporations are
gorging their profits.
ITO BE MORE specific we will take a couple of
Il our large corporations and see how they're get
ting along In 1949 G. M made net profit of 81 IL
per hour on every of their production workers,
or S646 million. But in 1850 this same I'M. is ex-
pected to $971 million. This means that G.M
could take its recently granted 19-centS-per-hour
wage increase deduct it from its expected earnings
and still wind up with net take of about $500.
Even if this done G. M. stockholders would
earn 40 per cent on their invested dollar.
But does this that G.M won't increase
prices? He'll no, they've already announced forth
coming price increases frigidaires and doubtless
price increases will follow the rest of their
products.
HOWEVER, G,M is not the only culprit. General
H Electric another industrial giant in its field
whose workers. incidentally among the lowest
paid in the country-took in net profit of Sl2o
million in 1949. This year they expect to increase
this huge sum to $155 million That equals return
of IS per cent on the stockholders dollar in one
single year.
Now the G. E. workers got a wage increase, too,
recently But their total wage increase amounts to
about S25 million. Here again that the COM
pany could easily take these increases out of
their current profits and still end up with 20
cent return their invested dollar for one year.
But they won't do that. They have already an
nOunced price increases that will more than make
up for their increased labor costs.
We might mention the leading steel manufac-
turers In this field 33 steel and iron corporations
reported net profit of $315 millNn the first half
of l949 and a net profit of $375-a rise of 10 per
centfor the first half of 1850 But here too, prices
going up and not down.

year, based on returns for the
