annual report
PRODUCTION INCREASED. For the fourth suc-
coesive year. General Electric turned out
record quantities of war goods despite an
average of 2 per cent fewer employees. G. E.
produced over 8,000,000 horsepower of ship
propulsion turbines for the Navy in 1944.
JET PROPULSION. General Electric developed
the world’s most powerful engine for the
world's fastest plane—the G-E jet propulsion
engine for the Lockheed P-80 "Shooting
Star.” It is over twice as powerful as previous
models produced for the Army Air Forces.
EMPLOYEE EARNINGS UP. The average G-E
employee earned $2,772 in 1944. Employees
also shared $234,000 in Suggestion Awards.
Top award was $2,000 for an idea that speeded
production of G-E gun control for the B-29
G-E employee suggestions aid the war effort.
234,732 STOCKHOLDERS. Ownership of the
company was divided among more stockhold
ers than ever before. Dividends were $1.40
per share—same as 1943 and 1942, less than
1941 and 1940. Net income was less than
1940, while sales billed were 3′4 times greater.

velopments as radar, silicones, jet propulsion,
rocket weapons, remote gun control for the
B-29 "Superfortress," the A-26 "Invader,”
and the P-81 "Black Widow.”
