Young Roosevelt
Seeking Bloom's
Spot in Congress
By I.yle C. Wilson
(United Pren SUiff Correspondent)
WnshingioQ, April 18 U'
Young Franklin D. Roosevelt has
stepped into a tough four-way
contest In his effort, to go to con
gress from the New York congres
sional district long commanded
hy the late Sol Bloom.
Bloom represented the district
on New York's upper west side
from 1923 until his recent death.
He was a pitchman and politician
by instinct, and he built for him
self a great political machine. Sol's
i machine is "busted" now, like a
dropped dollar watch.
The political rivalries loosed In
the district by Bloom's death set
up In broad outline what has hap
pened to the Roosevelt new deal
democratic coalition since the
death of FDR four years ago last
week. Franklin, Jr., was first in
the field with announcement of
his candidacy after Bloom's death.
Mayor William O'Dwyer, the big
gest democratic figure in New
York state, endorsed young
Roosevelt's candidacy for about
24 hours but thought betler of it
when the Tammany democratic
organization decided to buck the
old block's chip.
3 Now In Field
Now there already are three
candidates formally in the field.
Franklin, Jr., Is the congres
sional nominee of the liberal par
ty, a fourth string political organ
ization of new dealers, social dem
ocrats and independent left wing
ers. The liberal party is disting
uished for its firm opposition to
communism.
Tammany has nominated ma
gistrate Benjamin Shalleck who,
like Bloom, is a Jew. The com
munists and sympathizers with
communism who put Kremlin
foreign policy ahead of American
Interests, have nominated Dr. An
nette T. Rubensteln in the name
of the American labor party..
The republicans have not yet
selected their candidate, but they
will be represented.

LARGEST DOLLAR PROFITS IN COMPANY'S HISTORY
According to the bookkeepers, Union Oil Company made a net profit
during 1948 of $31,293,000.
If tins bookkeeping profit represented the company's actual "lake,"
our 34,035 common stockholders would be'llirowing llicir hats in
the air.
BUT HERE'S THE JOKER
53 of these profit dollars hail to be plowed right back into high
cost equipment, facilities ami oil properties.
Another 11 had to go into working capital.
So the actual "lake" profits that were drawn out of the business in
the form of dividends to stockholder-owners came to $1 1.320,000.
This amounted to a return of only 5.4 on our total sales of
$209,000,000, or 5.6 on the capital invested in ihc company.

era), State and local authorities from our customer?; taxes paid hy our
suppliers; or personal taxes paid by our stockholders and employees.
WHY DID WE HAVE TO PLOW BACK 'A
OF OUR PROFITS?
I. Under the lax laws, a corporation can set
sums asitle each year to replace equipment and
oil properties when they're worn out. (These
sums are represented in "Depreciation and De
pletion" segment of big chart.) But the sums
you're allowed to set asitle are based on what
these tilings cost when you acquired them not
on what it cosls to replace them today. Since those
depreciation funds aren't adequate to replace
equipment and oil properties at today's prices,
we have to make up the difference somewhere
or go out of business. That's where one part of
the "profit" dollars went replacement.
2 Every .housewife knows that it takes more
dollars to meet daily expenses today than it used
to. A corporation's daily expenses have increased
just like the average family's. That's where the
other part of our "profit" dollars went into in
creased working capital required for day-to-day
expenditures.
