Senate Probers

By CECIL HOLLAND
Star staff Writer

Senate investigators re-
ceived testimony today that
pyramiding profits running up
to 1924 million were made on
Nike missile -launcher leaders
produced for the Nations air
defenses.
Senator Mcclellan, Democrat
OF Arkansas. estimated the
profits totaled more than 20
per cent on production costs
for the launcher leaders of
$137.9 million.
I'm not saying for the mo-
ment that was unreasonable
that anything was wrong" he
said.
Senator Mcclellan heads the
Senate's permanent inveStiga-
ton subcommittee which has
launched a full-scale inquiry
into profits on profits" in the
missile program.
Western Electric Co., as the
prime contractor for the Nike
missile system, and Douglas
Aircraft Co., the principal sub
contractor, were described as
taking profits totaling more
than $40 million on the pro-
duction of the launcher leaders.
Profits Traced
With Robert E. Dunno of the
subcommittee's staff as a wit
ness, the profits on the Nike
launcher leaders were traced
at an opening public hearing.
The leaders, the subcommit-
tee was told, were produced by
Consolidated Western Steel
Co., a subsidiary of United
States Steel, at a cost Of $137.9
million.
Consolidated Western Steel
produced the launcher leaders
under a subcontract from
Douglas and billed Douglas for
$155.5 million. This included
$8.2 million in administrative
costs and $9.2 million in
profits. In turn, the subcom-
mittee was told Douglas added
a profit Of $10.3 million and
billed Western Electric for
$165.8 million.
Mr.. Dunno testified that
Western Electric billed the
Government for 1921 million
after adding general and ad-
ministrative costs totaling $6.4
million and a profit of
$9.8 million.
Spread Is $26.6 Million
The difference between Con-
solidated Western Steel's price
and the amount paid by the
Government was $26.6 million,
the subcommittee was told.
The profits for the three
companies were: Consolidated
Western, 6.3 per cent; Douglas
Aircraft, 81 per cent, and
Western Electric, ST. per cent.
Mr.. Dunno, under question
ing, said the companies tax
ing the additional profits had
indicated this represented, in
part. compensation for their
work in research and develop
ment of the Nike missile sys-
tenn. However, Senator Nc
