Roger Morrison and Richard F. Neuschel describe the struggle of business to make money now as "The Second Squeeze on Prof its," The authors are principal and director, respectively, of Mc Kinsey & Company, Inc. "While the question of what is an appropriate level of profits is a highly technical one with abun dant room for difference of opin ionthere Is a widening concern that profits might turn out to be a limiting factor in our economic growth rate," they report; since the beginning of the "fabulous fif ties," the gross national product has about doubled, but the profit segment of GNP has shrunk more than a third. New Pressures Competition, they find, has re sulted in something different from the t r a d i t i o n a 1 wage-price squeeze; and the second profit squeeze is uneven, in its effect from industry to industry. It is also sensitive to management ac tion. Morrison and Neuschel find that four interrelated pressures in the competition of business fit the de scription of the second squeeze on profits. These are: Fewer companies are able to increase profits by sales of estab lished products in established markets. More companies are operat ing in industries which have sub stantial unused capacity that could produce more than they are producing even when business activity is high. ' For many industries, foreign competition has increased. Prices remain relatively sta ble even when business is turning up sharply.

The shortages .which built up during that war were met; the artificial stimulus of the Cold War and the Korean War were met; then, during a time of inflation and rising wages the economy, be came more competitive. Compa nies could not pass along their rising costs in the form of higher prices, bringing about the profit squeeze. Inflation, they continue, has slowed, but the pressure on prof its is greater, and the basic de pressing force is intense competi tion. No longer is it the simple relationship of rising prices and more rapidly rising costs; the cost picture has changed to in clude those items of more com petitive marketing, produce devel opment, and the higher cost per unit to produce when capacity is not used to its fullest extent.
