Ownership Reality Behind Corporate Giants Faces Harsh Critique
The National City Bank of New York argues against viewing corporations as faceless capital, citing 1945 data: 72 large companies with 4,082,805 stockholders and 2,925,449 employees, $27 billion in assets, and an average $9,300 invested per worker. It notes 26 firms exceed 50,000 shareholders, with many having more shareholders than employees. The piece also covers a Society of Automotive Engineers convention warning that postwar cars may trend toward utility over style and higher costs, urging aerodynamic and engine improvements to curb wind resistance and raise efficiency. Some fear Americans will accept European-like, simpler automobiles.
