      In 1937, when the U.S. Securities Commission released a list of corporation salaries to the public, Kulp was the highest individual earner on the entire list. Admittedly, his reported salary of $65,090 doesn’t sound all that impressive, and even after inflation, it’s only a little over $1 million. But that’s probably more of a statement on just how out of whack executive payouts have become in the ensuing decades.
