It was run successfully with Charles Edison as its president, until it merged with McGraw in 1957. (You've never seen a 'McGraw-Edison' appliance? I have a nice heater of theirs - cost me $2 at a yard sale 30 years ago, and it still cranks out the BTUs very nicely!)
I am unaware of any "terminal decline" - maybe of the unused buildings after the merger, but not Thomas A.
