cies plus some 100 public rela-
tons representatives of local
Washington companies, who pro-
vide normal advertising and pro-
motional services found else
where. Few concern themselves
with national issues or with the
Washington press corps.
2. Private attorneys numbering
$500 undertake important prob
lens involving national issues
and by far their greatest con-
tributions lie in highly special
ICED forms of Government work.
3. Manufacturing agents to-
falling 100 represent businesses
in dealings on Government con-
tracts. Their concern with ma
tional issues is light.
4. Almost all Of $50 trade as
Isociations and unions engage
actively in public relations in

their concern with national is
sues is heavy.

ARE free-lance writer's, publicity

almost entirely in the frame
work Of national issues and in

t hough sometimes maligned
through sins of the few-engages
quite legitimately in influencing
the passage or defeat of Federal
legislation, he reported. Most
registrants, within this category
include association executives
and lawyers.
Mr.. Mccormick pointed out
that public opinion affects every
decision of the Federal Govern
ment and that the Federal Gov
eminent. more than any other
organization. molds public opin-
ion.
Most public relations firmly
try to persuade the Government
to take a position favorable to
the viewpoint Of the association
or client, Mr.. Mccormick de-
clared. They also try to antici-
pate what the Government will
do and plan international meas
ures in advance. An informa-
tional program can be executed
as soon as the Government de-
cision is known and this can sup
port or oppose the Government
position, be explained.

preting issues, timing questions

ponds on the latter.
Public relations men were sue

industry in 1866. said Mr.. Nc
Cormick. Outstanding work also
was done in softening clients

hearings, he declared.
There is a broad inter-rela-
tionship between public rela-
tons and the legal profession
but in most cases the services
are complimentary to each other
and the overlap is not as great
as might appear. he added.

They were, in fact, nearly

( AS part of the ceremony OPEN
ing the three-day exposition.
General Electric turned on one
of its two 75,000-watt electric
light bulbs in the Terrace Room
of the Shoreham Hotel. Enough
light for 10000 homes and too
much for one large dining room
flooded the place for a moment.
Robert Lowry, commercial rep

bulb was one of two built three
years ago to commemorate the
18th anniversary of the develop
ment Of the first electric light by
Thomas A. Edison.
Two Feet in Diameter
We've shown it at scores of
conventions and exhibits said
Mr.. Lowry. There is enough
tungsten in one of the lamps
about 2i2 pounds-to make over
1000 60-watt bulbs and it gives
of enough light at full brilliance
for about 10000 homes"

1T is 40 inches high and about
2 feet in diameter he said. 1T
requires special generator and
operates on about 700 amperes
or current"
He didn't know off-hand how
much 1t cost to operate but
figured quickly that at current
commercial rates 1t would run
about SIS an hour.
The big light bulbs cost about
$500 each and are much larger
than the most powerful mass
produced for commercial pur-
poses.
About the largest bulbs sold
today are l,500-watters used in
