HOLDING THE RUNAWAY
Who Owns A Company?
A typical American company recently set about finding
out who its owners are. [t had known, of course, that the company president was no more the sole owner than is the President of the United States the sole owner of the country he administers. The company learned it is owned by average citizens, living average lives, investing their money in average
companies because they have faith in American industry and
the American plan of producing wages and dividends from
honest work and honest products. .
Many persons might be called indirect shartholders. They
enjoy returns without actually owning stock of the company.
It comes about, for example, through their having insurance
policies on their lives, or homes, or places of business issued
by insurance companies that are part owners through shareholdings in the average company. Such investments of paid
insurance premiums safeguard the ultimate payment of an insurance policy. Thus each policy holder benefits indirectly by
the advance of the companies in which the insurance company
has its investments. The same is true of those holding shares
in investment trusts. Likewise, this may be said of those using
the facilities of universities, hospitals, and ‘clinical foundatios. These institutions keep going on the earnings of their
endowments, realized from holdings in stocks of average American companies. Partnerships in estates are another example.
A breakdown of stockholders of this average company
showed that 4,300 of them are men. Some are wealthy. More
are not. Then, there are 4,084 women—mothers, wives, sisters, daughters, sweethearts, widows, women who are
business for themselves, teachers, secretaries, clerks, office
managers, doctors.
Thus an average American company is owned mostly by
ordinary citizens engaged in the regular pursuits of life. But
as the result of the ownership being shared by such institutions as universities, hospitals, and charitable organizations,
the benefits are passed on to those of the general public who

will have to bear the entire brunt of paying off America’s rapidly rising debt at some future time. The national debt is pictured as something for future payment. However, these people are thinking only of the principal of the national debt.
They. overlook the startingly significant sum that must be
paid annually as interest alone on the public debt.
. This item of interest has become a major cost of government. In the coming fiscal year, it will exceed by $185,000,000 the cohbined costs of maintaining Congress and the departments of Agriculture, Commerce, Interior, Justice, Labor, Post Office, Treasury, and all other regular Federal activities. The interest figure, from another angle, will be 43 per
