LETTER OF SUBMITTAL
DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE,
BUREAU OF FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC COMMERCE,
Washington, November 13, 1937.
SIR: I have the honor to submit herewith for publication the fifty-
ninth issue of the Statistical Abstract of the United States. This
annual volume is a summary of authoritative statistics showing the
trends in trade and industry as well as social progress and is a con-
venient reference work for business men, economists, statisticians,
and students.
The present volume has been prepared in the Division of Economic
Research under the editorship of Martha Hunter and the admin-
istrative direction of Roy G. Blakey, former chief of the division, and
M. Joseph Meehan, assistant chief of the division. The volume rep-
resents a digest of data collected by all statistical agencies of the
National Government, as well as those of a considerable number
of private agencies and several States. Many of these offices and
agencies have been of great assistance in furnishing advance data
and also in the actual preparation of the tables used in the Abstract.
Special mention in this connection is due the following offices of the
Federal Government: The Bureau of the Census and the Bureau
of Fisheries of the Department of Commerce; the Bureau of Agri-
cultural Economics and the Weather Bureau of the Department of
Agriculture; the Immigration and Naturalization Service and the
Bureau of Labor Statistics of the Department of Labor; the Office
of Education, the General Land Office, and the Bureau of Mines
of the Department of the Interior; the Statistical Section of the
Income Tax Unit of the Treasury Department; the Veterans' Admin-
istration; the Interstate Commerce Commission ; the Board of Govern-
ors of the Federal Reserve System; the Farm Credit Administration;
and the Social Security Board.
Current data for many of the statistical series carried in the
Statistical Abstract are published monthly in the Survey of Current
Business, another publication of this Bureau.
Respectfully,
ALEXANDER V. DYE,
Director.
To HON. DANIEL C. ROPER,
Secretary oj Commerce.

2 In comparing this percentage of increase with that shown for the decade 1910-1920, allowance should
be made for the fact that the period between the censuses of 1910 and 1920 was less than a full decade, and
that between the 1920 and 1930 censuses was more than a full decade. An increase of 16.1 per cent for 123
months (the time between Jan. 1, 1920, and Apr. 1, 1930) is equivalent to 15.7 per cent for exactly 10 years;
and the 1920 increase for H6J£ months (the time between Apr. 15, 1910, and Jan. 1, 1920) is equivalent to
15.4 per cent for 120 months. Making this adjustment, the rate of increase for the decade ending in 1930
is only slightly higher than that for the preceding decade.

POPULATION DENSITY BY STATES 6
No. 5.— DENSITY OF POPULATION PER SQUARE MILE, BY STATES
NOTE.— The population of continental United States has been divided by the total land area, although it
included at each census some unorganized territory which was not canvassed by the enumerators. For
each State or Territory the population as returned at a given census has been divided by the land area
as constituted at the time that census was taken. The areas of Indian reservations, outside of Indian
Territory, are included in the areas of the several States and Territories, although the population was
not ascertained and can not be considered in figuring density of population prior to 1890. The census of
1870 in the Southern States is considered incomplete. Population density in 1930 of Alaska, Hawaii,
and Puerto Rico, and of Philippine Islands, December 31, 1918, based on gross area, and not land area,
was as follows: Alaska, 0.1; Hawaii, 57.5; Puerto Rico, 449.5; Philippine Islands, 90.0

NOTE. — See headnote. Table 7. The proportion of urban and rural population in 1930 as compared with
data for earlier censuses was affected by changes in the classification. If the segregation of urban and
rural had been made in 1930 on the same basis as in 1920, the per cent urban in 1930 for the areas affected
would have been as follows: United States, 55.9; New Hampshire, 66.3; Massachusetts, 95.3; Rhode
Island, 97.5; Connecticut, 65.0; New York, 83.4; New Jersey, 77.5; Pennsylvania, 65.7; California, 72.4

POPULATION BY STATES

No. 11. — POPULATION: ANNUAL MIDYEAR ESTIMATES BY STATES
NOTE. — Estimates of population from 1927 to 1929 are based on the assumption that the increase (or de-
crease) each year between the censuses of 1920 and 1930 is equal to the annual average change between
the two enumerations. For 1930 to 1936, the total population is estimated upon the basis of the available
birth, death, immigration, and emigration figures, allowance being made for unregistered births and
deaths. For State estimates for 1934 and 1935 a study of local conditions was made through State data,
principally school statistics, State censuses, and a review of the farm population as indicated by the
Agricultural Census of Jan. 1, 1935. The figures for 1930 to 1933 are obtained by interpolation between
the 1930 census figures and the 1934 and 1935 estimates. For estimate for continental United States
/or 1937, see table 12, p. 10. For actual enumerations, 1790 to 1930, see table 6, p. 4.

POPULATION
No. 12. — POPULATION: ANNUAL MIDYEAR ESTIMATES FOR CONTINENTAL
UNITED STATES AND CERTAIN OUTLYING TERRITORIES AND POSSESSIONS
NOTE. — Estimates, except for continental United States and Hawaii, 1930 to 1937, are based on the assump-
tion that the increase each year between two successive censuses is equal to the annual average increase
between the two enumerations. Revised estimates for continental United States and Hawaii, 1930 to
1937, are based on available data regarding births, deaths, immigration, and emigration, allowance being
made each year for unregistered births and deaths. Estimates for Puerto Rico, 1930 to 1937, are based
upon a census taken as of Dec. 1, 1935.

1 Enumeration in Southern States incomplete; this affects especially figures for the negro population.
2 White population includes Mexicans prior to 1930. The estimated number of Mexicans included in
the white classification in 1920 was as follows: Total, 700,541; native white, 243,181 (172,704 of foreign parent-
age and 70,477 of mixed parentage); foreign-born white, 457,360. For close comparison with 1930, adjusted
figures for 1920 may be obtained by deducting these from the white population as reported in 1920.
3 Exclusive of Indians in Indian Territory and on Indian reservations, not enumerated prior to 1890.
4 Comprises Filipinos, Hindus, Koreans, Hawaiians, Malays, Siamese, Samoans, and Maoris.

POPULATION FAMILIES
Uo. 40.— FAMILIES BY TENURE, AND AVERAGE POPULATION PER FAMILY
NOTE.— A family is defined as a group of persons related either by blood or by marriage or adoption who
live together as one household usually sharing the same table. Single persons living alone are counted
as families, however, as are a few small groups of unrelated persons sharing the same living accommoda-
tions as "partners." In the 1920 count, inmates of an institution were treated as a single family as were
also other quasi-family groups. Families not reporting tenure are included in the totals for all families.

i Private families only, excluding 75,178 institutions, hotels, etc. These quasi-family groups were in-
cluded in the count as made for 1920.
* The first of the two averages shown for 1930 is obtained by dividing the total population by the combined
number of private families and quasi-family groups (institutions, hotels, etc.). This figure is strictly
comparable with the 1920 average. The second average presented for 1930 is obtained by dividing the
total population living in private families by the number of private families.

1 Because of changes made in 1930 in the classification of agricultural pursuits, it is impossible to group
the 1920 occupations exactly according to the 1930 classification. It is believed, however, that the effect
of the difference in grouping on the comparability of figures here presented is negligible. Figures have
been adjusted to exclude those employed on turpentine farms classified in "Agriculture" in 1920 (see Note 5) .
2 Since, in 1920, only farm laborers on general farms were distinguished as working on "home farm" or
"working out," farm laborers on dairy farms, stock farms, truck farms, poultry farms, etc., who were, in
fact, working on the "home farm" as "unpaid family workers" were not included in " Farm laborers (home
farm) ." Hence, as here compiled for 1920, the number of farm laborers classified as " Wage workers " prob-
ably is somewhat too large, and the number classified as " Unpaid family workers" somewhat too small.

» See note 15, p. 58. 20 Selected occupations. 21 Not classified separately in 1920.
22 Neither in 1920 nor in 1930 was the attempt to distinguish chauffeurs and motor truck drivers from
draymen, teamsters, and carriage drivers very successful.
23 Teamsters in agriculture, forestry, and the extraction of minerals are classified with the other workers
in those industries, respectively; drivers for bakeries and stores are classified as deliverymen in trade, and
drivers for laundries are classified as deliverymen in domestic and personal service.
2* Included with "Draymen, teamsters, and expressmen" in 1920.
28 Because of indefinite returns by census enumerators, it is probable that some stationary engineers
were included with locomotive engineers, and some firemen of stationary boilers with locomotive firemen.

3. VITAL STATISTICS
GENERAL NOTE.— Vital statistics are registered by the States in the first instance, but duplicates of the
original certificates of individual births and deaths are received and tabulated by the Census Bureau.
Owing to the gradual expansion of the "registration" areas up to 1933 (see tables 74, 81, and 91), the number
of births and deaths for the areas as a whole are not strictly comparable but, in most cases, the rates are
affected very slightly. Beginning with 1933, all States are included in both the birth and the death registra-
tion area.
General tables cover the registration area in continental United States. Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and the
Virgin Islands are shown separately in table 89. Stillbirths, shown in table 85, are excluded from data
for both births and deaths.
The term "urban" as used in the birth and mortality statistics in this section includes the population
living in cities having 10,000 or more inhabitants while "rural" includes minor cities with population from
2,5000 to 10,000 in addition to strictly rural areas.
Rates for 1930 to 1935, except as noted, are based upon revised estimates of population as of July 1, shown
in table 11, p. 9. Revised population estimates for July 1, 1930, to 1935, are not available by race or by age
groups, or for cities and rural areas.
In all tables showing data by color, Mexicans have been included with the white. Where data for
"white" and "other races" shown in this issue of the Statistical Abstract differ from similar data published
in previous issues, it is so indicated by notes.

4. IMMIGRATION, EMIGRATION, AND NATURALIZATION
[In compiling immigration statistics, Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico, beginning 1904, 1901, and 1902,
respectively, are treated as integral parts of the United States. In prior years the transfer of population
between them and the United States was considered immigration. The movement of population between
the United States and the Philippine Islands is not included in immigration statistics for 1899 to May 1,
1934, but is included subsequently and prior to 1899]
No. 94.— IMMIGRATION: 1821 TO 1936
NOTE.— For 1821 to 1867 the figures represent alien passengers arriving; for 1868 to 1903, immigrants arriving;
for 1904 to 1906, aliens admitted; for 1907 to date, immigrant aliens admitted. Data are for fiscal years
ended June 30 except as noted; for periods they are totals, not annual averages

97
No. 98.— IMMIGRATION, BY COUNTRIES AND BY DECADES, 1841 TO 1930
NOTE. — For 1841 to 1867 figures represent alien passengers arriving; for 1868 to 1903, immigrants arriving >
for 1904 to 1906, aliens admitted; thereafter, immigrant aliens admitted. Data prior to 1906 cover coun-
tries whence aliens came; thereafter, countries of last permanent residence. Owing to changes in the
lists of countries separately reported and to changes in boundaries, data for certain countries are not
comparable throughout. Countries added to the list since the beginning of the World War were there-
tofore included with the countries to which they belonged. Data are totals (not annual averages) for
periods ended June 30 since 1870, Dec. 31 theretofore, except as noted

IMMIGRATION
No. 102.— IMMIGRATION QUOTAS ALLOTTED AND QUOTA ALIENS ADMIT-
TED : BY COUNTRY OR REGION OF BIRTH, YEARS ENDED JUNE 30
NOTE.— The Immigration Act of 1921 limited the number of aliens admitted annually of any nationality
subject to the quota law, to 3 per cent of the number of foreign-born persons of such nationality resident
in continental United States as determined by the census of 1910; the population plan of the act of 1924,
to 2 per cent according to the census of 1890. The national origins clause of the latter act, which became
effective July 1, 1929, provided that the quota of any natonality should be computed by applying to
150,000 the ratio between the calculated number of inhabitants in continental United States in 1920
owing their origin to the nationality concerned and the total inhabitants in the United States of all
nationalities subject to the quota law. (For estimates of white population by countries of origin, calcu-
lated as a basis for immigration quotas, see table 97, Statistical Abstract, 1932.) Under the act of 1924
the minimum quota is 100. Both immigrant and nonimmigrant aliens may appear in quota law sta-
tistics, or aliens of both classes may not be counted against quotas at all

6. PUBLIC LANDS
GENERAL NOTE.— An original entry is a first claim to receive a given tract of public land. Perfected
entry of the claim is made after required lapse of time and compliance with other conditions. By Execu-
tive orders of Nov. 26, 1934, and Feb. 5, 1935, public lands were temporarily withdrawn from settlement,
location, sale, or entry. Both orders, however, were made subject to valid existing rights

Miscellaneous
1 An Indian, as denned by the Indian Service, represents a person of Indian blood who, through wardship
treaty, or inheritance, has acquired certain rights. Indians are accredited to the State where enrolled
though an Indian may be carried on the rolls because of tribal or inheritance rights and reside elsewhere.
Reservation and nonreservation Indians are included. Beginning 1930, Indians no longer under the juris-
diction of the Indian Office are not included. Figures for 1930 are as of Apr. 1; for 1936, as of Jan. 1.
» For 1930 and prior years the entire population of the Southern Navajo Reservation and the Western
Navajo Reservation was reported under Arizona; for 1936, the part of the former extending into New
Mexico and the part of the latter extending into Utah is included in New Mexico and Utah, respectively.
8 1927. < Estimate. « Includes Indian Territory for 1900.
« Figures include data for the Five Civilized Tribes as follows: 1900, 84,570; 1910, 101,278; 1920 and 1930,
101,506 (final roll of Mar. 4, 1907), including 23,405 freedmen and 2,582 intermarried whites; 1936, 72,626
Indian members as reported by the Bureau of the Census, the freedmen and inter-married whites having
been dropped from the rolls since they were not Indians though they had the legal rights of Indians.

No. 145.— ARMY OF THE UNITED STATES: STRENGTH OF COMPONENT PARTS
NOTE.— Prior to 1914, table covers quinquennial years and years in which considerable changes occurred
in the number of Regular Army. Figures for Officers' Reserve Corps include Regular Army enlisted
men and also, prior to 1924, National Guard officers holding commissions in the reserve. There is,
therefore, some duplication in the grand totals ,but the number of this personnel is not so great as to
make a material difference in the figures.

1 In computing these averages, pensions paid to a small number of veterans (see table 152) were included.
3 The decrease in the averages for 1931 and 1932 was due to the addition to the roll of a large number of
veterans receiving disability allowance for nonservice-connected disabilities at a lower annual average
value, and the increase in 1934 to the discontinuance of the disability allowance to approximately 400,000
veterans.

CIVIL SERVICE RETIREMENT
No. 165.— CIVIL SERVICE AND CANAL ZONE RETIREMENT
NOTE.— Retirement for civil service employees was established by act of May 22, 1920. Under this act
as amended July 3, 1926, and May 29, 1930 (effective July 1, 1930), employees of the classified service
and certain other groups, including unclassified laborers subject to labor regulations, are eligible for
retirement on annuity at the ages of 62, 65, and 70, according to the class of service, if they have rendered
at least 15 years of service. The last-named act permits the optional retirement of employees 2 years
before reaching the retirement age where they have rendered at least 30 years of service and also permits
retirement on account of permanent and total disability after 5 years of service. From the basic com-
pensation of each employee within the scope of the acts there is deducted 3 Hi percent (2^ prior to July 1,
1926) thereof for deposit to the credit of the retirement fund. All amounts deducted prior to July 1, 1930,
and thereafter amounts deducted less $1 per month are credited to the employee's individual account.
Under the amendment of May 29, 1930, annuities are composed of (1) a sum equal to $30 for each year
of service not exceeding 30 (provided it does not exceed three-fourths of average salary) , and (2) the amount
of annuity purchasable with the sum credited to the individual's account together with interest at 4
percent per annum, with certain provisions regarding the minimum total annuity.
By act of Mar. 2, 1931 (effective July 1, 1931), special provision was made for employees of the Panama
Canal and Panama Canal Railroad, who theretofore had been eligible for retirement under the civil
service retirement and disability act.

9. NATIONAL GOVERNMENT FINANCES
General note as to bases used in compiling statistics of receipts and expenditures of the United States Qovern-
ment.—Four different bases are used in compiling both the receipts and expenditures of the Government.
These bases, in the case of receipts, are the daily Treasury statements (unrevised and revised), warrants
issued, and collections reported. The expenditures of the Government are published on the first three of
these bases and also on the basis of checks issued. Figures in the daily Treasury statements (unrevised)
which are on a current cash basis are compiled from the latest daily reports from the Treasury offices or
public depositories. Owing to the distance of some of these offices and depositories from the Treasury,
reports from them are somewhat delayed in reaching the Treasury, and consequently it is necessary to issue
the unrevised Treasury statements before they are received. The figures for actual transactions during
a month or year which are calculated to take into account these delayed reports are said to be on a basis
of daily Treasury statements (revised). The unrevised figures are the basis of the Budget estimates
submitted to Congress by the President.
It is provided by law that warrants shall be issued by the Secretary of the Treasury in acknowledg-
ment of money received, and that warrants must be drawn by the Secretary of the Treasury for all dis-
bursements of money. Some of these warrants for expenditures do not represent actual payments but
are merely advances of credit to disbursing officers, who then issue checks in payment of Government
obligations. Expenditures on the basis of warrants issued include unexpended balances to the credit of
disbursing officers at the end of the year but do not include expenditures made during the year from unex-
pended balances of the preceding year.
Expenditures on the basis of checks issued (table 175) represent most accurately the actual expenditures
during any given year. They differ from expenditures shown by daily Treasury statements (revised),
because they include checks outstanding at the end of the year and exclude unpaid checks at the beginning
of the year.
Government transactions are classified according to the accounts through which they are effected. The
three classes of accounts are: General fund accounts, which include the general revenues and from which
the operating expenses of the Government, including capital outlays and fixed charges, are paid under
appropriations by Congress; special fund accounts, or funds received under special authorizations of law
which are earmarked for some specific purpose; and trust fund accounts, representing money received and
held in trust for the benefit of individuals or classes of individuals. The latter are not strictly Govern-
ment moneys and are shown separately in all tables except No. 173. (See headnote of that table.)
All figures for receipts and expenditures include postal surpluses or deficiencies only; postal revenues
other than surplus receipts and postal expenditures payable from postal revenues are shown in table 173.
No. 172.— RECEIPTS AND EXPENDITURES: BY MONTHS
NOTE. — All figures in millions and tenths of millions of dollars. Figures are on the "current cash" basis
shown by daily Treasury statements, unrevised; see general note above

INTERNAL REVENUE COLLECTIONS
No. 177. — INTERNAL REVENUE: AMOUNTS COLLECTED FROM PRINCIPAL SOURCES
NOTE.— All figures in thousands of dollars. The figures represent collections by internal revenue officers
throughout the country, including deposits by postmasters of amounts received from sale of internal rev-
enue stamps and deposits of internal revenue collected through customs offices, and, therefore, differ
from those in tables 172 to 174 and 176 which represent the deposits of these collections in the Treasury or
depositaries during the fiscal year concerned, there being thus an overlapping of time. Certain items,
included in the totals in the last column, are shown in detail in the second part of the table

1 Total income and net income for 1926 to 1933 include capital net gains from sale of assets held over 2
years whereas net income has not been reduced by nor have deductions been increased by the amount of
capital net losses from such sales. For treatment of capital gains and losses for 1934, see note 5.
2 Excludes such wages and salaries of the individual, his wife, or dependent minors derived from the
business conducted by the individual.
3 Dividends on stock of domestic corporations, taxable interest on obligations of the United States, and
prior to 1934, capital net gain from sale of assets held more than 2 years, received through partnerships and
fiduciaries are reported under their respective classifications. For 1934, income of partnerships and fidu-
ciaries includes the proportion of net capital gains and losses resulting from sales of capital assets through
these entities required to be reported under the Revenue Act of 1934.
4 Exclusive of amount taxed as capital net gain from sales of assets held over 2 years.
8 Under the Revenue Act of 1934, certain percentages (varying according to the period for which assets
were held) of gains or losses from the sale of all capital assets are taken into account in computing net income,
the deduction for capital losses being limited to $2,000 after subtracting capital gains. Amounts shown as
"net capital gain" and "net capital loss' ' represent the proportion of gains and losses required to be includ-
ed and are not comparable with "profits (or net loss) from sale of real estate, stocks, bonds, etc." and "capi-
tal net gain from sale of assets held over 2 years" reported for earlier years; they exclude gain or loss on sale
of capital assets through partnerships or fiduciaries (see note 3).
• Amount reported for tax at 12^ percent in lieu of normal tax and surtax.
7 On stocks of domestic corporations.
s Interest on Government obligations not wholly exempt from tax.
8 Other than reported for tax credit on capital net loss from sale of assets held more than 2 years.
10 Excludes amounts reported in business deductions.
11 No deduction allowed for
for prior year loss.
13 For 1934 the limited credit for earned income was allowed against net income in computing taxable
income.
13 Loss in ordinary net income for given year and net loss for prior year deductible from capital net gain.
14 Computed by Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce, based on revised estimates of population.

No. 188.— CORPORATION INCOME TAX RETURNS: SUMMARY
NOTE.— All money figures in thousands of dollars. Statistics are based on taxpayers' returns as filed, un-
audited except to insure proper execution of the returns. They include data for Alaska and Hawaii.
All corporations are required to file returns except those specifically exempt, such as mutual, fraternal,
civic, charitable, etc., not operating for profit. Under the Revenue Act of 1934, the privilege of filing
consolidated returns, which had formerly been permitted for groups of affiliated corporations, was limited
to steam and electric railroads. This change in the law results in marked differences in the industrial and
net income or deficit classifications of returns for 1934 and those for prior years, and also in the distribution
of returns by size of assets classes. Under the consolidated provisions the predominant industrial
activity and the composite income and deductions of the consolidated group determined the industrial,
net income or deficit, and total assets classification of the consolidated return. For 1934, each of the sepa-
rate returns of affiliated corporations is classified on the basis of its predominant business, which fre-
quently differs from that of the consolidated return in which it was formerly included, and the net income
or deficit and assets reported in the separate return. Certain items of assets and liabilities, receipts, and
deductions, as well as dividend payments and tax, are also materially affected by the absence of "inter-
company eliminations" which occurred in consolidated returns but not in the separate returns filed for
1934 by each concern. In Statistics of Income for 1934, part 2, tables are presented to show the effect of the
discontinuance of the consolidated return on the tabulated data

REVENUES AND EXPENDITURES STATES
No. 212.— REVENUES AND EXPENDITURES OF STATE GOVERNMENTS
NOTE.— Both receipts and expenditures are net figures, excluding temporary and special transactions which
represent virtually duplication. Revenue receipts do not include any receipts from borrowing of money.
Outlays, which enter into the total for governmental-cost payments, represent capital investments,
including those made with the proceeds of borrowed money. The excess of governmental-cost payments
over revenue receipts represents, approximately, increase of indebtedness

No. 215.— ASSESSED VALUATION OF PROPERTY SUBJECT TO GENERAL
PROPERTY TAX
NOTE. — Property belonging to railroads, telegraph companies, and a number of similar corporations is in
some States distinguished as real or personal, but in a number of States it is treated as a single total.
In the latter case, figures for such corporations and also other property and franchise valuations of corpora-
tions for which data were insufficient for a complete distinction of real from personal are not shown
separately but are included in the totals. Figures do not show the relative wealth of the different States
owing to differences in the bases of assessments and practices thereunder

GENERAL PROPERTY TAXES
No. 217. — TAXES: TOTAL LEVIES OP AD VALOREM GENERAL PROPERTY TAXES
OP STATES, COUNTIES, AND MINOR CIVIL DIVISIONS
NOTE.— The data represent the total levies of general property taxes of States, counties, cities, villages,
towns, boroughs, townships, school districts, etc., and for all purposes. They do not cover "special
to limited classes, nor taxes based on other standards than property, such as income, volume of business,
inheritance, etc., which have been steadily growing in relative importance. The change in buying
power of money affects materially the comparability of the figures. For data for 1860, 1870, and 1890,
by States, see table 437, Statistical Abstract of 1922

1 Under orders of the Secretary of the Treasury of Dec. 28, 1933, and Jan. 11 and 15, 1934, all gold coin
domestically owned (with minor exceptions) was required to be delivered to the Treasurer of the United
States, and under the Gold Reserve Act of 1934 (Jan. 30) withdrawn from circulation and formed into bars.
Gold coin ($287,000,000) shown on Treasury records as then outstanding was dropped from statements.

MONEY
No. 231.— STOCK OF MONEY IN THE UNITED STATES, BY KINDS
NOTE.— Amounts in thousands of dollars. Figures prior to 1890 were revised in 1925 from the best available
data, but the older records, especially from 1860 through the early 70 's, are not complete and figures for
gold and silver those years are only estimates. In 1927, data were revised to include minor coins beginning
1900 (no satisfactory data available for earlier years) and gold coin and bullion held abroad for Federal
Reserve banks and to exclude gold earmarked for foreign account

i The totals involve a duplication to the extent that United States notes, Federal Reserve notes, Federal
Reserve bank notes, and national bank notes, all included in full, are in part secured by gold, also included
in full. Gold certificates, silver certificates, and Treasury notes of 1890 have been excluded, however,
since they are complete duplications of the equal amounts of gold or silver held as security therefor and in-
cluded in the totals.
* By a proclamation of the President dated Jan. 31, 1934, the weight of the gold dollar was reduced from
25.8 to 15$£i grains of gold, 0.9 fine. The value of gold is therefore based on $35 per fine ounce beginning
June 1934; theretofore, it is based on $20.67 per fine ounce.
1 There has been no fractional currency in actual circulation to any extent since 1878.
* Silver bullion in Treasury.
"Includes silver bullion as follows: June 30, 1934, $1,560,000; June 30, 1935, $313,309,000; Dec. 31, 1935,
$576,862,000; June 30, 1936, $708,211,000 ;Dec. 31, 1936, $775,896,000; June 30, 1937, $835,196,000.

circulation statement in 1922 and 1927, figures for 1915 on have been compiled to include in the holdings
of Federal Reserve banks and agents, and, hence, in stock of money, gold bullion and foreign coin held
by them and gold coin and bullion held abroad for the account of Federal Reserve banks, and also to
include in the holdings of Federal Reserve banks and agents, and, hence, exclude from circulation, all
forms of money held by them whether as Reserve against Federal Reserve notes or otherwise. See also

Treasury with money in the Treasury in order to avoid duplication, since the gold and silver held in Treas-
ury as security against these currencies is included. See also notes 1 and 2, table 231.
2 Both of these items include also reserve against Treasury notes of 1890.
3 See note 1, table 230. 4 Includes total stock of silver dollars and subsidiary silver.
« Gold certificates. This amount is not included in the total since the gold held as security against the
gold certificates is included in the column, "In trust against gold and silver certificates."

FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM
No. 247.— REPORTING MEMBER BANKS IN 101 LEADING CITIES:
PRINCIPAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
NOTE. — In millions of dollars. Data are monthly averages of weekly figures. Figures were considerably
affected in March 1933 by the closing of a number of large banks in 11 of the cities included and from March
1933 until the middle of 1934 by the reopening of old banks or the beginning of reports by new successor
banks. These changes, however, reflect the course of banking developments during this period.

Figures through June 1934 are "net demand deposits" and are not comparable with "demand de-
posits— adjusted" shown for subsequent months, which represent demand deposits other than interbank
and U. 8. Government less cash items reported on hand or in process of collection. Net demand deposits
for September 1934 were $13,729,000,000. For a detailed discussion of these two series, see Federal Reserve
Bulletin for November 1935.
J Figures prior to September 1934, include a relatively small amount of time balances of banks.
3 Loans secured by stocks and bonds.
4 Exclusive of loans to banks beginning with September 1934.
8 Average for May 5 and 12; loan classification revised beginning with May 19.
Source: Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Data are published currently in the "Federal
Reserve Bulletin." Beginning with May 19, 1937, however, the classification of loans was revised. Explan-
ation of the revisions and comparison of the old series here published with the new classification used begin-
ginning with May 19 are given in the "Federal Reserve Bulletin" for June 1937.

i Comprises banks suspended before the banking holiday, licensed banks suspended or placed on
restricted basis following the banking holiday, unlicensed banks placed in liquidation or receivership,
and unlicensed banks granted licenses after June 30, 1933. At the close of the banking holiday (Mar. 15,
1933) 1,400 national banks with deposits (on Dec. 31, 1932) of $1,942,574,000, and 221 State bank members
with deposits of $924,177,000 had not been licensed to reopen. On Apr. 12, 1933, the first date following the
banking holiday for which corresponding data are available with respect to nonmember banks, there were
1,108 unlicensed national banks with deposits of $1,818,541,000, 148 unlicensed State member banks with
deposits of $841,382,000, and 2,938 unlicensed nonmember banks with deposits of $1,317,607,000. By the
end of June 1933 supervisory authorities had completed their examination of all or nearly all the banks
not granted licenses immediately following the banking holiday and had authorized such of the banks to
reopen as could then qualify for licenses. On June 30, 1933, there remained 985 unlicensed national banks
with deposits of $1,028,347,000, 110 State member banks with deposits of $237,668,000, and 1,983 non-
member banks with deposits of $1,063,984,000 to be rehabilitated and reopened or to be placed in liquid-
ation or receivership. All such banks (not licensed by June 30, 1933) are treated as suspensions.
2 Includes 8 insured nonmember banks in 1934, 22 in 1935, and 40 in 1936 with deposits of $1,912,000,
$3,763,000, and $10,207,000, respectively. Federal deposit insurance became operative Jan. 1, 1934.

that production credit associations and banks for cooperatives borrow from and rediscount loans with
Federal intermediate credit banks. The following loans which cannot be allocated by States are excluded:
Central bank for cooperatives, $13,470,000 (total loans, $27,778,000, less $14,308,000 under rediscount with
Federal intermediate banks); Agricultural Marketing Act revolving fund loans, $53,755,000. Including
these amounts, the grand total loans outstanding were $3,362,382,000.
2 Includes $622,000 emergency crop loans which cannot be allocated by States.
J Less than $500.
* Includes $9,000 for Hawaii.

BANK CLEARINGS
No. 293. — CLEARING-HOUSE EXCHANGES: SUMMARY FOR UNITED STATES
NOTE. — Prior to 1920 data are for all cities reporting to the New York Clearing House Association and cover
years ended Sept. 30; commencing 1920 they are for 146 identical cities and relate to calendar years. The
comparability of these figures is afiected (1) by changes in the number of cities reporting, and (2) by the
tendency toward consolidation of banks, eliminating former clearings between two or more banks.
Debits to individual account (tables 294 and 295) are a more significant measure of volume of payment.
The divisions shown in this table, with the exception of the New England, differ from the geographical
divisions shown in most tables in the Abstract. The Eastern division includes the States comprising
the Middle Atlantic division in other tables (see for example table 257) and Delaware, Maryland, and Dis-
trict of Columbia of the South Atlantic division; the Southern includes the other six South Atlantic
States, the East South Central and the West South Central States with the exception of Oklahoma; the
Middle Western includes the East North Central States, Minnesota, Iowa, and Missouri; the Western
includes North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Montana, Wyoming, and Colo-
rado; the Pacific includes Washington, Oregon, California, Idaho, Utah, Nevada, and Arizona

of Canadian companies. They include data for some small companies which confine their business to
the State in which they domicile, and usually to several small cities, which are not included in tables
302 to 305. Further differences between totals in this table and in the preceding tables are due to du-
plications from reinsurance.

1 Total premium receipts prior to 1910.
2 Figures for 1895 to 1931 (also 1932 figures in italics) include adjustment expenses excluded thereafter.
3 Including taxes.
< Figures through 1931, and 1932 figures in italics, include data for companies which transact life insurance
in addition to accident and health insurance. Income and disbursement items include business of accident
and health branches only of these life insurance companies, where companies were able to segregate data,
while capital, assets, and net surplus include total amounts of these items for such companies, excluding,
however, data for a few very large companies for which accident and health business is only a small propor-
tion of the total business. Capital, assets, and net surplus are therefore overstated and in part duplicated
in figures for life insurance companies in other tables. Figures for 1932 to 1934, except 1932 italics figures,
relate to casualty, surety, and miscellaneous insurance companies only.
* Number of companies which show figures for the year. fl See note 4.
7 Revised to exclude data for life departments of three companies (two for 1932) for which total assets and
net surplus were included in figures previously published.
6 Includes stock casualty, surety, and miscellaneous insurance companies, shown separately above,
mutual companies, reciprocals, and Lloyds; number of companies and income and disbursement items
also include accident and health departments of life insurance companies.

No. 312.— INSURANCE CARRIERS AND INSURANCE AGENCIES AND BROKER-
AGE OFFICES: NUMBER OF OFFICES, EMPLOYMENT, AND PAY ROLL FOR THE
UNITED STATES, 1935
NOTE. — Carriers include all types of insurance coverage except title insurance and the guarantee of mort-
gages. Each carrier is considered as having only one home office. Insurance agencies and brokerage
offices include insurance agencies, sub-agencies, and brokerage offices identifiable as business establish-
ments; managing agencies for one or more carriers; attorneys-in-fact for Lloyds Associations and for recip-
rocal exchanges; and underwriter agencies. Classifications by kind of insurance in the case of multiple
line companies submitting a consolidated report are based on the kind of insurance from which the major
portion of the business is derived. For employment by occupational groups see table 369.

COMMODITY AND SECURITIES EXCHANGES
285
No. 314.— COMMODITY EXCHANGE TRANSACTIONS: VOLUME OF TRADING IN
PRINCIPAL GRAIN FUTURES AND AMOUNT OF FEDERAL TAXES COLLECTED ON
SALES OF ALL COMMODITIES FOR FUTURE DELIVERY
NOTE. — Trading in wheat and corn futures usually accounts for around 90 percent of the total volume of
trading in grain futures. Statistics of the volume of future trading are not collected for commodities
other than grains. The value of all futures sales is roughly indicated, however, by the amount of taxes
collected on such sales. Since Oct. 3, 1917, stamp taxes upon sales of products or merchandise on
exchanges, boards of trade, or similar places, for future delivery, have been in effect as follows: On each
$100 of such sales or a fractional part thereof in excess of $100, 2 cents prior to July 2, 1924; 1 cent July 2,
1924, to June 21, 1932; 5 cents June 21, 1932, to May 11, 1934; 3 cents thereafter

No. 328. — COMMERCIAL FAILURES: NUMBER AND ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
NOTE.— In January 1936, statistics were revised to exclude failures of insurance and real estate agents and
' brokers, holding and finance companies, shipping agents, tourist companies, transportation terminals,
and such, ail of which were formerly included in the old group "Agents, brokers, and commercial service",
and limited more strictly to commercial failures. These revisions make the failure record accord more
nearly to the type of concerns included in the count of "Number of concerns in business", in which no
changes were made. The following table and table 329 present revised statistics beginning with January

No. 331.— APPLICATIONS FOR REORGANIZATION UNDER SEC. 77-B,
AMENDMENT TO THE BANKRUPTCY ACT: BY INDUSTRIAL GROUPS
NOTE.— Sec. 77-B, amendment to the Bankruptcy Act, effective June 1934, provided for the reorganization
of companies in financial difficulties with sufficient assets in excess of liabilities to warrant reorganization.
These 77-B cases should be considered in connection with commercial failures to obtain a complete
picture of companies whose financial condition has brought them to the courts. There is some duplication
when a company already in receivership files for reorganization, when a petition is an answer to involun-
tary bankruptcy, or when a 77-B company becomes bankrupt after reorganization. In general the
77-B provisions attract companies with extensive assets

12. NATIONAL WEALTH, INCOME, AND DEBT
(Data in this section relate to continental United States)
No. 334.— ESTIMATED NATIONAL WEALTH OF THE UNITED STATES : TOTAL,
1850 TO 1922, AND BY CLASSES OF PROPERTY, 1900 TO 1922
NOTE.— Estimates of national wealth for the earlier censuses were not made by precisely the same
methods used more recently and are not closely comparable. Changes in buying power of money, as
indicated by levels of prices and wages, materially affect the comparisons (see price tables in Sec. 13).
For distribution of principal classes of property by States for 1912 and 1922, see Statistical Abstract,
1932, table 275. There have been no official estimates of wealth since 1922

No. 336.— NATIONAL INCOME PRODUCED AND PAID OUT
NOTE. — Under the concept of national income employed in this study, the following items have not been
included : Imputed income from ownership of durable goods (including owned homes) , the imputed value
of services of housewives and other members of the family, earnings from odd jobs, direct relief and charity,
earnings from illegal pursuits, and changes in value of assets not derived by groups professionally occu-
pied in the handling of assets. Business savings represent the difference between the income produced in
a given year and the amount actually distributed to individuals. Negative savings are incurred when the
business system pays to individuals more than was produced in a given year.

No. 340.— LONG-TERM DEBT, PUBLIC AND PRIVATE: ESTIMATED AMOUNTS
OUTSTANDING AT THE END OF THE YEAR, BY CLASSES
NOTE.— These figures represent gross debt. Insofar as possible, obligations held by the issuing corporation
or individual are excluded, but no eliminations are made for intragroup and intergroup holdings of
evidences of debt. Under the concept of long-term debt employed in this study, figures include, in
general, debt issued with maturities of more than 1 year. Estimates for some items of private debt,
particularly for the earlier years, are subject to wide margins of error. Percentages indicating the esti-
mator's opinion as to the probable margin of error for 1912 to 1934 are shown in the previous issue of this
publication. The probable margin of error in the totals for the later years is around 3 percent. As the
element of bias is believed to be in the same direction for all years, the figures are more reliable for the
measurement of the flow of debt than to measure the absolute volume as of a particular date.

1 This summary excludes the debt of financial corporations which is largely duplicated in other basic
debt. Private financial corporative debt has been estimated at about $2,600,000,000 for recent years. Bonds,
notes, and debentures of governmental corporations and credit agencies, excluding interagency liabilities
and Federal land-bank bonds held by the Federal Farm Mortgage Corporation, amounted to $5,100,000,000
on Dec. 31, 1934, and $5,900,000,000 on Dec. 31, 1935; these figures include $3,300,000,000 and $4,500,000,000,
respectively, of bonds guaranteed by the U. S. Government, representing contingent Federal debt.
J Funded debt actually outstanding for railways and switching and terminal companies. The 1930, 1934 ,
and 1935 figures are raised to take account of receivers' certificates and funded debt matured unpaid. The
margin of error is very small for these figures.
3 Preliminary estimates from sample data.
* Figures are for corporations operating for profit and do not include debts of unincorporated business
firms. Debts of the latter in the form of mortgage loans are included in urban realty debt figures.
8 Figures for 1912, 1922, and 1930 are interpolated between estimates of the Bureau of Agricultural Eco-
nomics on the basis of annual statistics of interest payable on farm mortgages published by that Bureau.
The figure shown for both 1934 and 1935 is an estimate as of Jan. 1, 1935, by the Bureau of the Census, De-
partment of Commerce, and the Bureau of Agricultural Economics, Department of Agriculture.
6 Estimates are very rough. They include debts of unincorporated business enterprises and nonprofit
corporations as well as real estate debts proper. Estimates for 1935 are tentative.
7 For additional statistics relating to public debt, consult index for references to data in other sections.
8 Includes bonds and Treasury notes and also, for 1922, Treasury war savings securities; these items
constitute a debt figure which is roughly comparable with private long-term debt figures.
8 Estimates as of June 30, 1913, 1923, 1931, and 1935. Data are not available for 1936.

13. PRICES
GENERAL NOTE.— The wholesale price index of the Department of Labor is based on primary market
quotations of 784 commodities beginning 1926; a smaller number of commodities was covered in earlier
years. The price of each article is weighted by the approximate quantities marketed during intervals
fairly close to the period covered by the indexes. Beginning with 1921, in computing indexes for com-
modity groups, articles falling under more than one of the classifications adopted were included under each
classification. For example, articles produced on the farm which reach the consumer practically unchanged
in form, such as potatoes, milk, and eggs, were included among both farm products and foods. However,
in computing the index for all commodities such articles were counted only once.
The retail food index presented in this section, with the exception of certain data shown in table 349, is a
revised series. The revised indexes are computed from aggregate costs of 42 foods in 51 large cities prior
to January 1, 1935, and of 84 foods since that date. To obtain the aggregate cost in each city, the average
prices of individual foods were combined by means of weights based on total purchases of wage earners
and lower salaried workers in 1918. City costs were combined with the use of population weights to deter-
mine the cost for the United States as a whole. Prior to August 1933, prices were collected on the 15th of
the month; thereafter they were collected every 2 weeks.
The farm price index is based on prices paid to producers for 34 major crops and beginning 1924, also 13
commercial truck crops. Average quotations for the period, August 1909- July 1914, are used as a base,
and each price series is weighted by the average annual marketings of farmers in the years 1924 to 1929.

No. 346. — WHOLESALE PRICES: IXDEX NUMBERS, ALL COMMODITIES AND BY
ECONOMIC CLASSES
NOTE. — Figures in boxes indicate number of quotations. As originally published, Bradstreet's "Index"
is the sum of the prices per pound of 96 commodities; Dun's represents the aggregate cost per capita of a
year's supply of the approximately 300 commodities included. In the following table, both series have
been expressed as a percentage of 1926 by the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce. Indexes
of the National Bureau of Economic Research for 1916 to 1928 are unweighted geometric means for
approximately 490 commodities (converted from a 1913 base to a 1929 base by the Bureau of Foreign
and Domestic Commerce); for subsequent years they are weighted arithmetic means for 680 price series,
the weights being based upon the average value of production in 1927 and 1931. For method of comput-
ing the Department of Labor index see general note, p. 299

i Beginning 1926. In earlier years a smaller number of commodities was included.
* Number of quotations used beginning 1929; see headnote regarding earlier years. The sum of the
number of quotations for producers' goods and consumers' goods and for durable and non-durable goods
is greater than the number of all commodities owing to duplication of certain price series in the classifica-
tions. For example, identical price quotations on flour are used in both producers' goods and consumers'
goods.

No. 347.— COST OF GOODS PURCHASED BY WAGE EARNERS AND LOWER-
SALARIED WORKERS IN THE UNITED STATES: INDEX NUMBERS
NOTE.— 1923-1925 average=100. Figures for food represent 51 cities since 1920 and a smaller number in
earlier years; other figures, 19 cities from 1913 to 1917, and 32 cities thereafter. Totals weighted by rela-
tive importance of items as ascertained by country-wide study of cost of living made in 1918-19. Except
for 1913, the annual average indexes for items other than foods, are estimates based on indexes compiled
as of particular dates at irregular intervals, shown in previous issues of this publication. They represent
weighted averages of indexes for each pricing period affecting the year. For example, where goods were
priced in June and December, the indexes for December of the previous year were considered in arriving
at the average for the year. The annual average food index is based on monthly indexes

No. 349.— RETAIL COSTS OF AIL FOODS: INDEX NUMBERS, 1890 TO 1936
NOTE. — The "old series" represents the series carried in the 1935 and previous issues of the Statistical
Abstract converted from a 1913 base by the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce. The simple
average of indexes for 1923, 1924, and 1925 on the 1913 base was used for converting. The "revised series"
published for 1923 to 1936 incorporates certain changes in methods of weighting and computation (see last
paragraph of general note, p. 299, for a brief description of this index)

14.— WAGES, HOURS OF LABOR, AND EMPLOYMENT
[Data in this section relate to Continental United States, except as noted. For data relating to hours of
labor, wages, and employment shown in other sections, consult the index]
No. 355.— AVERAGE HOURS AND EARNINGS IN SELECTED MANUFACTURING
INDUSTRIES
NOTE. — The number of establishments supplying monthly data on which averages in this table are based
varies and, therefore, the averages shown are not strictly comparable. The reporting samples, however,
are in practically all instances large enough to be representative of the industry generally. The average
weekly earnings do not represent full-time earnings inasmuch as the data from which they are com-
puted include both full-time and part-time workers. The average weekly hours and average hourly
earnings are derived from somewhat smaller "samples" than the average weekly earnings. The latter
figures, therefore, differ from the product of average weekly hours and average hourly earnings.

1 Changes in United States wage rates are affected by the relative number of men employed in areas with
higher or lower wage rates.
1 Beginning with March 1932 through December 1935, data from State projects also are included.
3 Average for 10 months. 4 Average for 9 months. » Average for 1 1 months.
8 Federal-aid projects were at a low level for 1933 to 1935 and wage rates are not representative, see data
for emergency, etc., projects.

EMPLOYMENT AND PAY ROLLS
317
No. 360.— INDEXES OF EMPLOYMENT AND PAY ROLLS IN MANUFACTURING
INDUSTRIES: REVISED SERIES
NOTE. — Monthly average, IMS^S^IOO. Indexes are currently based on monthly reports from establish-
ments representing 89 industries beginning 1931 (52 to 61 industries in earlier years) and employing approx-
imately 55 percent of all factory employees in the United States. The indexes in the following table
and in tables 361 to 364 have been adjusted to conform with the Federal Biennial Census data on employ-
ment and pay rolls through the year 1933. Indexes are weighted according to the average number of
employees and the average weekly pay rolls in the base period 1923-25 in each of the component
industries and are without seasonal adjustment. A detailed description of the construction of these
indexes is given in Bulletin No. 610, published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and in a supplement to
Bulletin 610, which is now being prepared. See table 361 for seasonally adjusted indexes of employment.

1 Compiled by Massachusetts Department of Labor and Industries, based upon monthly returns from
approximately 1,700 manufacturing establishments employing about 55 percent of the factory wage earners
in the State. Office workers assigned to productive departments are included, but not executives, salaried
officers, etc. The employment indexes are adjusted to the annual State census of manufactures through
1934. Pay-roll indexes are based upon a computation of employment times average weekly earnings.
2 Compiled by the New York State Department of Labor, based upon monthly reports from approxi-
mately 2,117 manufacturing firms who employ about 38 percent of all the factory workers in the State.
Reports cover employees in both office and shop, including foremen. Executives and salesmen are omitted,
and administrative and sales offices located away from the plants are not covered.
3 Compiled by the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia. For New Jersey, indexes are based upon
monthly reports to the bank from 1923 to 1926 and since then, to the New Jersey Bureau of Statistics and
Records of the Department of Labor. Current reports are from about 750 manufacturing plants which
account for approximately 59 percent of all wage earners engaged in manufacturing industries of the State
and 64 percent of the total wage payments. For Pennsylvania, indexes are based upon reports collected
by the bank in cooperation with the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Pennsylvania Department
of Labor and Industry. Current reports are from over 2,300 manufacturing plants and represent about
55 percent of all workers and their earnings in the manufacturing industries of the State. Indexes are
weighted according to the relative importance of each industry in the State totals. For Delaware, indexes
are based upon reports collected by the bank in cooperation with the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Current reports are from about 80 manufacturing plants and represent approximately 57 percent of all
workers engaged in manufacturing industries of the State and 64 percent of the total wage payments. The
indexes for the three States have been adjusted to conform with the Federal Census of Manufactures data
through 1931 and will be similarly adjusted to subsequent censuses.
* Compiled by the Illinois Department of Labor, based upon monthly reports from about 2,042 manufac-
turing plants covering wage earners (production employees) only. Reports represent approximately 47
percent of all wage earners engaged in manufacturing industries of the State and 45 percent of the total
wage payments.
* Compiled by the Industrial Commission of Wisconsin, based upon monthly reports from a representa-
tive list of manufacturers who employ about two-thirds of the total factory wage earners (manual employees
only) in the State. Current data are based on reports from about 730 manufacturing establishments, which
employ approximately 165,000 shop workers. The indexes are weighted averages of relatives.

No. 367.— AVERAGE WEEKLY AND HOURLY EARNINGS: ALL WAGE EARN-
ERS AND CLASSIFIED GROUPS OF LABOR, 25 MANUFACTURING INDUSTRIES
NOTE.— Index numbers based on 1928 as 100. Data cover a representative number of plants which em-
ployed 1,560,000 workers during 1936. The earnings are computed by weighting the average earnings in
each industry according to the relative importance of the industry as revealed by the Federal Biennial
Census of Manufactures for 1923. In addition, each labor group is weighted according to the relative
proportion of the group in each industry as revealed in the Conference Board's studies during the 3-year
period 1927-29. The pay-roll data are based upon the first full week in each month, or, if a generally
recognized holiday falls in that week, upon the succeeding week

laundries, and dyeing and cleaning. Indexes for hotels relate to year-round hotels having 25 or more guest
rooms; pay-roll indexes represent cash payments only; the additional value of board, room, and tips cannot
be computed.

WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR
No. 370.— INDEXES OF UNION SCALES OF HOURLY WAGE RATES AND
WEEKLY HOURS IN BUILDING iA.ND PRINTING TRADES : BY OCCUPATIONS
NOTE.— Data for the earlier years cover 39 cities. The coverage was gradually extended until, beginning
with 1934, 70 cities were included. The figures are based upon the scale prevailing May 15 each year.
The relative wages are percentages which indicate the change in wages per hour. The relative hours are
percentages showing the change in the regular full-time hours per week, account not being taken of loss
of time from slack work or other causes, nor of overtime work. See also headnote, table 371.

UNION WAGE RATES
No. 371.— UNION WAGE RATES PER HOUR AND HOURS PER WEEK IN
SELECTED TRADES, AS OF MAY 15
NOTE. — Data are compiled from a survey made of 70 cities for 1934 through 1936, and of 67 cities for prior
years, which were selected on the basis of size, geographical distribution, and presence of trade-union
organization. Rates were obtained for each of the principal time-work trades in all cities covered in
which there were local unions and represent rates provided for in union agreements. The union mem-
bership covered by these agreements in 1935 was approximately 539,000 and in 1936, 600,000. The averages
for each trade are weighted according to the number of members in the various local unions

UNEMPLOYMENT RELIEF
No. 376. — UNEMPLOYMENT RELIEF: NUMBER RECEIVING EMERGENCY RE-
LIEF AND OBLIGATIONS INCURRED FOR EMERGENCY RELIEF FROM PUBLIC
FUNDS
NOTE. — Figures for the latter part of 1935 reflect the transfer of relief cases to the new Works Program
which began operation in July under authority of the Emergency Relief Appropriation Act of 1935, and
the gradual withdrawal of the Federal Emergency Relief Administration from the financing of relief
operations. In a majority of States, general relief operations were continued by State and local agencies,
using the balances of Federal funds and other public funds. Reports through December 1935 cover
the general relief program (direct and work relief) and special programs (rural rehabilitation, emergency
education, and college student aid) ; subsequent data are intended to include all general relief from public
funds other than institutional care, hospitalization and burial, and special types of public assistance
such as aid to the blind, aid to dependent children, and old age assistance. The figures do not include
activities conducted under the Civil Works Program nor, after June 1935, the rural rehabilitation program
(transferred to Resettlement Administration) and the college student-aid program (not in operation in
July and August 1935 and conducted by the National Youth Administration thereafter). Data are
from reports by the States through December 1935; subsequently they are partially estimated. For
data for 1933, see table 373 of the 1936 issue of the Statistical Abstract

No. 384.— TRANSPORTATION OF DOMESTIC MAILS
NOTE. — Amounts, except as indicated, in thousands of dollars. Since Nov. 1, 1916, all service on steam
railroads is authorized and paid for under the space basis system; formerly, payments were based on
a system of quadrennial weighings. Railway mail space units of service vary in size and character and
may consist of a car, a section of a car, or a closed pouch carried on a car. Some cars are railway post
offices, others are for storage only, about 20 classes of units being distinguished. The "equated unit"
represents a calculation of the equivalent of all the different units in terms of a 60-foot car. Annual
rate of expenditure (regular authorizations) represents estimated cost for transporting normal mail traffic
over regular routes only, based on contracts outstanding at the end of each fiscal year. "Annual cost"
includes emergency and side and transfer service. Average rates are based on "regular authorizations"

1936 (preliminary) —
1 Not including bootleg or stolen coal; if this were included the energy from anthracite and the total
energy in 1935 and 1936 would be increased by approximately 109 trillion British thermal units.
* The fuel equivalent for water power is calculated from the reported horsepower of installed water
wheels. Prior to 1890 data were unsatisfactory, but estimates are included in the total.
8 Calculated at 26,200,000 British thermal units per ton.
4 Based on the amount of coal displaced by gas, as estimated by the gas companies.
No. 399.— ELECTRICITY PRODUCED, CONSUMPTION OF FUEL, AND CAPAC-
ITY OF GENERATORS IN PUBLIC-UTILITY POWER PLANTS
NOTE.— Data are estimated totals for all plants, based on returns from about 3,500 plants in 1919 to about
3,745 in 1936, each producing 10,000 kilowatt-hours or more per month, engaged in public service, including
central stations, electric railways, steam railroads generating electricity for traction, and certain other
plants. The capacity of plants reporting is about 95 percent of that of all plants. For Bureau of the
Census data for 1902 and 1912, see the 1936 Statistical Abstract, table 396.

ELECTRIC LIGHT AND POWER
No. 402. — CENTRAL ELECTRIC STATIONS: EQUIPMENT, EMPLOYEES, OUTPUT,
AND SALES
NOTE.— A central electric station, commercial or municipal, is one either generating and selling electrical
energy, or selling only, to public or private consumers. Figures do not include establishments which
consume all current generated, such as mines, factories, hotels, and other enterprises not in the nature of
' public utilities, nor plants operated by the Federal Government or by States unless energy is sold com-
mercially. No data are included for electric-railway power plants unless part of the current generated is
sold. There is considerable duplication in total sales, since they include energy sold for resale. Amount
sold is considerably less than current generated due to line losses, etc.

WATER POWER
No. 409.— DEVELOPED AND POTENTIAL WATER POWER
NOTE. — In thousands of horsepower. Data for developed water power cover capacity of actual installation
of water wheels and turbines in plants of 100 horsepower or more. Potential power figures are 1936 revised
estimates showing the 24-hour horsepower available 90 percent of the time and 50 percent of the time
at an over-all efficiency of 70 percent at all developed and undeveloped sites. Data for potential power
are not directly comparable with those for developed power, because developed power is usually given
in terms of the capacity of installed water wheels or turbines, which may be several times the poten-
tial power available 90 percent of the time. Probably with complete development of the water-power
resources of the whole country the installed capacity would amount to 80,000,000 horsepower or more

AUTOMOBILE FATALITIES
No. 423.— AUTOMOBILE FATALITIES IN STATES AND LARGE CITIES HAVING
DEATH REGISTRATION
NOTE. — Figures include all deaths from accidents caused by motor vehicles except motorcycles, but ex-
clude deaths from collisions of automobiles with railroad trains and street cars. See table 74 for per-
cent of total population included in the registration area for each year prior to 1933; since 1933 the entire
population is included. Rates for 1930 to 1935 for registration States and for Washington, D. C., are based
on revised estimates of populati9n. Population estimates for cities other than Washington are not
available for 1934 and 1935 and estimates for earlier years have not been revised

19.— TRANSPORTATION, AIR AND LAND— STEAM AND
ELECTRIC RAILWAYS, EXPRESS COMPANIES, MOTOR
BUSSES, AND CIVIL AERONAUTICS
[Data in this section relate to continental United States unless otherwise stated]
GENERAL NOTE.— The total steam railroad mileage of the United States includes: (a) Regular inter-
state carriers (and their nonoperating subsidiaries) reporting to the Interstate Commerce Commission,
(6) switching and terminal railroads, also reporting to the commission ; and (c) private railroads (defined
by the commission as "circular" because they report on brief circulars and as "unofficial"). Except in
certain mileage data the circular and unofficial companies are not included in any of the statistics. The
switching and terminal roads were formerly included with operating railways, but are now separated, and
data for them do not appear in most of the tables.
Nonoperating subsidiaries include proprietary companies, which are covered by the reports of operating
carriers, and lessor companies which have no traffic and whose reports appear only in statistics of capitali-
zation, dividends, and investment.
Operating railways are divided into three classes, according to the amount of their annual operating rev-
enues, class I, having more than $1,000,000 of such revenue; class II, from $100,000 to $1,000,000; and class
III, less than $100,000. During recent years more detailed reports are required from class I carriers than
from smaller companies. The basis of the figures in each table is indicated by notes. Omission of class
II and class III railroads affects very little the comparability of statistics with those of earlier years as
regards most items, since the bulk of the business is done by class I.
The Interstate Commerce Commission divides railroads geographically into three districts and eight
subsidiary regions. Each railroad is treated as a unit and placed wholly in some one district or region.
Broadly speaking, the eastern district includes territory east of Chicago and north of the Ohio and Potomac
Rivers; southern district, territory east of the Mississippi River and south of the Ohio and Potomac Rivers;
and western district, the remainder of the country.
Class I companies make monthly reports from which data are compiled currently and published in a
series of monthly statements. The yearly totals from these reports become available earlier than the
sometimes slightly corrected totals from the final annual reports. The latest figures in these tables are in
many cases from the monthly reports.
No. 424.— RAILWAY MILEAGE OWNED AND MILEAGE OPERATED CLASSI-
FIED BY TRACKAGE
NOTE.— Beginning with 1908 switching and terminal roads are omitted (they operate about 2,300 miles
of main tracks). The first and second columns cover all railways, including "circular" and "unoffi-
cial" lines; the last five columns omit "circular" and "unofficial" lines. Mileage owned excludes all
duplication and covers continental United States only. Mileage operated includes some duplication
under trackage rights and some mileage in Canada operated by United States companies

1 Data exclude switching and terminal companies beginning 1910. Class III roads are excluded in 1913.
Exclusion of the latter has practically no effect on the comparability of the figures. Information for 1915
is incomplete, as 20 of the larger railways did not report, and is not shown.
1 Calculated for all classes of employees, including those not paid on an hourly basis.
1 Data cover Federal reports, reports of companies not under Federal control, and corporate reports.

data.

No. 446.— REVENUE FREIGHT CARRIED, BY COMMODITY GROUPS
NOTE. — All figures in thousands of tons of 2,000 pounds. Data relate to years ended June 30 prior to 1916,
to calendar years thereafter. Switching and terminal roads excluded beginning with 1908. Figures for
1911 to 1915, inclusive, exclude class III roads but this affects the comparability very slightly; those after
1916 exclude both class II and class III, thereby reducing the grand total about 6 percent. Non-
revenue freight is excluded; this is a large item in the case of a few commodities, notably coal

No. 450.— PERSONS KILLED AND INJURED IN RAILWAY ACCIDENTS
NOTE.— For various reasons, including the fact that returns were required under different acts, the statistics
are not strictly comparable. Prior to 1921, train accidents were those causing damage to railway prop-
erty in excess of $150 or any damage and a resulting casualty. Thereafter they were considered as such
when the damage exceeded $150 with or without a casualty. Where the damage is less than $150 and
there is a reportable casualty it is classified as a train-service accident. Figures for years 1911-1915 in-
clude industrial and other nontrain accidents to employees only, and for years 1908-1910 do not cover
switching and terminal roads. Otherwise the statement covers all reportable accidents

No. 455. — ELECTRIC RAILWAYS: SUMMARY OF OPERATIONS
NOTE.— This table does not include the electric operations of steam railway companies nor motor-bus
operations of electric railways; for motor-bus statistics see table 463. Many electric railway companies
also engage in other operations, especially in the sale of current for light and power; wherever possible,
such light and power business has been excluded, but for numerous companies this is impossible.
No distribution can be made in the statistics between purely urban street railways and suburban and
interurban lines. The insignificant amount of business still conducted by cable and animal traction is
included, as well as some operations conducted by primarily electric railways by means of steam traction
and gasoline engine cars. Mileage figures expressed in nearest mile

ownership by other companies, largely in Pennsylvania. In 1912 these companies were treated as merged
and not included in the number reported.
8 Includes small mileage of track lying outside the United States.
« Compressed air.
< Includes 1.26 miles of nonelectric track in 1922, 1.20 miles in 1927.
8 Complete data not available. In 1927 a number of composite companies included the value of electric
railway road and equipment in the value of their entire plant and equipment reported on their combined
balance sheet on the light and power schedule and advised that this could not be separated. Statistics for
Central Light and Power Stations include their combined figures.
« Including revenues and expenses from auxiliary operations, except in 1932. Prior to 1927, auxiliary
operations include data for electric light and power departments of electric railways; beginning with 1927,
such data for most companies have been reported on separate schedules and are included in the statistics
for "Central Electric Light and Power Stations."

» Mileage expressed i n nearest mile. Figures include track 1 y ing outside the United States (1912, 32 miles;
1917, 1922, and 1927, 27 miles; 1932, 24 miles).
' In 1927 overhead trolley includes 25 miles of surface lines operated by both overhead trolley and gas-
electric motor cars; in 1932, includes 2 miles operated by both overhead trolley and conduit and 2 miles
operated by both overhead trolley and oil-electric motor cars.
3 Figures for power-plant equipment, capacity of generators, and output of stations in 1927 and 1932
are not comparable with those in prior years, as companies that formerly reported these data as auxiliary
operations on railway schedules furnished separate and complete reports for light and power operations
in 1927 and 1932. These are included in the statistics for "Central Electric Light and Power Stations."
The number of companies that reported power-plant equipment in 1912 was 494- in 1917 355' in 1922 232'
in 1927, 70; in 1932, 39.
< Includes 33 units with 41,100 horsepower of idle equipment in 1927 and 18 units with 63,167 horsepower
of idle equipment in 1932.

8 Not including passengers carried by motor busses operated by electric railway companies (16,120,000
in 1922; 214,694,000 in 1927; 880,543,000 in 1932).

MOTOR TRANSPORTATION AND WAREHOUSING
No. 465.— COMMON CARRIER MOTORBUS TRANSPORTATION, MOTOR-
TRUCKING FOR HIRE, AND PUBLIC WAREHOUSING: SUMMARY FOR THE
UNITED STATES, 1935
NOTE. — Revenue and pay roll in thousands of dollars. The motorbus transportation census was limited
to concerns that received 50 percent or more of their revenue from common carrier bus transportation
operations, excluding bus lines operated by municipalities, electric railway companies and their sub-
sidiaries, and directly by steam railroads. School bus operations are also not included. The survey of
motor trucking for hire covered only those concerns that received 60 percent or more of their revenue
from the transportation of other people's goods for a price and whose annual revenue was at least $200.
Individuals and concerns engaged primarily in trucking for their own use are not included. While the
coverage of trucking for hire is not complete, data must represent a large proportion of such business.
The classification of motortrucking for hire and bus transportation concerns into local, intrastate, and
interstate is based on the type of operation which accounted for the major portion of their business.
The warehousing survey was limited to individuals and companies receiving 50 percent or more of their
revenue from public warehousing and at least $500 revenue, excluding the following types of public ware-
housing: Field warehouses, apple sheds, potato pits, State and municipal warehouses, open yard and
wharf storage, and automobile storage

20.— WATERWAYS, WATER TRAFFIC, AND SHIPPING
[Data in this section cover the following areas unless otherwise indicated: From Board of Engineers of the
United States Army and Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce, United States customs area which
includes Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico, and, beginning Jan. 1, 1935, Virgin Islands; from United States
Shipping Board, continental United States]
General note as to units of measurement.—" Cargo tonnage" represents weight of cargo in long tons (2,240
pounds) or short tons (2,000 pounds). All other tonnage figures refer to capacity of vessels. The terms
gross and net tonnage refer to space measurement, 100 cubic feet being called 1 ton. Gross tonnage is the
capacity of the entire space within the frames and the ceiling of the hull, together with those closed-in
spaces above deck available for cargo, stores, passengers or crew, with certain minor exemptions. Net
or registered tonnage is what remains after deducting from the gross tonnage the spaces occupied by the
propelling machinery, fuel, crew quarters, master's cabin, and navigation spaces. It represents substan-
tially space available for cargo and passengers. The net tonnage capacity of a ship recorded as "entered
with cargo" may bear little relation to actual weight of cargo. Dead-weight tonnage is the weight in
long tons required to depress a vessel from light water line (that is, with only the machinery and equip-
ment on board) to load line. It is therefore the weight of the cargo, fuel, etc., which a vessel is designed
to carry with safety. Displacement tonnage (naval vessels) has reference to weight of the vessel itself
with its normal equipment, fuel, etc.

cisco (36,272,000 tons); local traffic of other seaports (38,594,000); local traffic of lake ports (5,608,000).
1 Excluding St. Marys Falls Canal traffic (48,293,000 tons in 1935) and additional Detroit River traffic
(27,486,000 tons in 1935), both of which are already counted in Great Lakes traffic; also excluding duplica-
tions relating to rivers and canals themselves.
' Principally coastwise and lake traffic passing through canals and connecting channels, other than the
St. Marys Falls Canal and the Detroit River.
« Estimated from data in this table on the assumption that all the duplications deducted from the grand
total represent duplications in domestic traffic; there are, however, some minor cases of duplication con-
nected with foreign traffic.

No. 468.— COMMERCE OF PRINCIPAL UNITED STATES OCEAN PORTS, 1935
NOTE.— In thousands of short tons of 2,000 pounds. In addition to the commerce here shown, many of
the ports have (1) commerce with ports on internal rivers and canals; (2) purely local port traffic, including
in the case of New York, Philadelphia, and San Francisco, what is called intraport traffic between parts
of a harbor for which separate statistics are maintained. These forms of traffic, although the aggregate
tonnage is large, are of much less economic importance than foreign and coastwise traffic

3 Includes cargoes in transit.
3 Internal traffic only; figures do not include ocean-borne traffic at ports.
4 Figures prior to 1935 represent traffic from Minneap9lis, Minn., to New Orleans, La. They cover
gross traffic, which represents the addition of the tons carried over each of the several stretches of the river,
and therefore include some duplication owing to the overlapping of traffic. Data for 1935 represent net
traffic which excludes duplication; net traffic for 1934 from Minneapolis to New Orleans is 16,038,000 tons.
8 Data represent traffic on the Illinois River only.

1 Sailing vessels, canal boats, and barges. » Dec. 31.
1 The decrease of tonnage arises principally from the registered tonnage having been corrected in 1818,
1829, and 1830 by striking off all vessels the registers of which were granted prior to 1815, which were sup-
posed by the collectors to have been lost at sea, captured, etc.
< Sept. 30.
5 Including Puerto Rico in all years shown and Virgin Islands beginning 1920.
• Including Hawaii and Alaska. 7 Motor vessels included in steam in 1910

.— FOREIGN COMMERCE OF THE UNITED STATES
GENERAL NOTE.— All statistics of foreign commerce in this section are compiled in the Bureau of Foreign
and Domestic Commerce, Department of Commerce. Except as noted (as, for example, in table 625) the
values stated are in United States dollars without reference to changes in the gold content of the dollar.
(The statutory price of gold— 820.87 per ounce— in effect prior to January 31, 1934, was changed on that date
by Executive Order to $35.00 per ounce. Between March 10, 1933, and January 81, 1934, the foreign
exchange value of the dollar was permitted to depreciate as a result of restriction placed on gold shipments
to foreign countries.) The geographic area covered by there statistics, except as noted, is the United
States customs area, which includes Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico, and, beginning January 1, 1935, the
Virgin Islands (see headnote, table 499). Other explanations of the trade tables are given in the intro-
duction to the Annual Foreign Commerce and Navigation of the United States. Monthly statistics of United
States foreign trade are published currently in the "Monthly Summary of Foreign Commerce of the United
States" and in mimeographed statements of the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce
No. 496.— SUMMARY OF FOREIGN TRADE OF THE UNITED STATES

No. 497.— PRODUCTION OF EXPORTABLE GOODS AND PROPORTION
EXPORTED
NOTE.— Agricultural production prior to 1909 is the estimated value of farm products, excluding crops fed
to livestock; beginning 1909 it is gross income, excluding feed, seed, and waste. Value added by manufac-
ture represents manufactures. Value of mine products in 1909 and 1919 are census figures, in 1929 census
data plus petroleum products, while estimates for other years are based on data of the Bureau of Mines
As the figures are not adjusted for price changes, the increase or decrease in absolute values from period
to period should be disregarded

FOREIGN COMMERCE EARMARKED GOLD
No. 499.— MERCHANDISE TRADE OF CONTINENTAL UNITED STATES WITH
FOREIGN COUNTRIES AND OUTLYING TERRITORIES AND POSSESSIONS
IMPORTANT NOTE.— This table differs as to its geographic basis from all other foreign trade tables in this
section and in other publications: (1) In the case of other tables the data represent the trade of the "sta-
tistical customs area," which includes continental United States, Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico,
and, beginning Jan. 1, 1935, Virgin Islands, with all foreign countries, including the Philippine and,
prior to 1935, Virgin Islands. The data do not cover trade between continental United States and the
territories included in the customs area as given above. (2) The present table takes continental United
States as the basis. In the totals, trade between it and all United States territories and possessions
is included, while the trade between that part of the customs area outside of continental United States
and foreign countries is excluded. Practically all other nations calculate their foreign trade in the manner
followed in the present table; that is, totaling the trade of the home country with foreign countries and
with all outlying areas. Prior to 1901 Alaska was our only outlying area. Therefore, our foreign trade
statistics for 1900 and earlier years very nearly represent the trade of continental United States with
foreign countries. Data are for years ended June 30 through 1918; thereafter, for years ended Dec. 31

1 Gold bullion (bars) and United States gold coin.
2 Increase is the equivalent of net export and decrease the equivalent of net import. The reverse is
true of changes in gold earmarked abroad for account of Federal Reserve banks, which were as follows:
In 1932, an increase of $72,638,000, equivalent to a net import; and in 1933, a decrease of $72,638,000.
3 Net release of gold from earmark during January at rate of $20.67 a fine ounce, $12,206,000; net release
during remaining 11 months at rate of $35 a fine ounce, 870,347,000.

1 This item consists roughly of three parts: ( 1) exports and imports of goods for which data are available but
not recorded in the official trade figures (e. g., ships, bunker fuel purchases and sales, etc.); (2) goods whose
export or import is wholly or partly omitted from official trade data (e. g., unrecorded parcel-post ship-
ments, goods smuggled into the country, etc.); (3) corrections of certain recorded trade figures to allow
for possible overvaluation (in case of goods sent on consignment) or undervaluation (in case of imports
subject to ad-valorem duties), uncollectible accounts, etc.
1 Less than $500,000.
'Negligible.
4 Capital items are viewed as "exports" and "imports" of evidences of indebtedness.
« This item takes account of all reported security movements between the United States and foreign coun-
tries and includes international sales and purchases of long-term issues, new underwriting, sales and pur-
chases of properties not represented by security issues, and security transfers resulting from redemption and
sinking-fund operations.

FOKEIGN COMMEKCE
No. 513.— INDEXES OF QUANTITY, UNIT VALUE (PRICE), AND TOTAL VALUE
OF EXPORTS OF UNITED STATES MERCHANDISE AND IMPORTS
NOTE. — The quantity and unit value indexes have been constructed by the so-called "ideal formula,"
the essential feature of which is the use of the quantities of the several articles as weighting factors of
their unit values for each pair of years compared. About 265 commodities were included in the direct
calculations for both exports and imports. It was then assumed that the prices of articles in each
economic class not directly covered had moved in parallel with those of articles covered and their value,
adjusted by the computed price index, was included in the aggregative totals from which the quantity
index for each class was calculated. The index of quantity and unit value of total exports and imports
was based on the aggregate of the adjusted totals of the classes. In constructing the indexes the data for
1919 were linked directly to 1913, and each subsequent year was compared with that preceding. The
resulting year-to-year percentages were made into a series by the chain method
[1923-1925 average=100]

No. 525.— EXPORTS (INCLUDING REEXPORTS) AND IMPORTS OF MER-
CHANDISE, BY GROUPS OF CUSTOMS DISTRICTS
NOTE.— All figures in thousands of dollars. For basis of dollar values, except export figures for 1865 and
1870-78, see general note, p. 428. Export figures for those years represent mixed gold and currency values
and hence do not agree with the specie values given for total exports in other tables. Figures cover fiscal
years to and including 1915, calendar years beginning 1916. Import data are "general imports" through
1933; "imports for consumption" thereafter. Exports and imports of the interior districts, a small per-
centage of the total, are not included in this table

FOKEIGN COMMEKCE
No. 526.— EXPORTS (INCLUDING REEXPORTS) AND IMPORTS OF MER-
CHANDISE, BY PRINCIPAL CUSTOMS DISTRICTS
NOTE.— All figures in thousands of dollars. For basis of dollar values, except export figures for 1865 and
1870-78, see gene ral note, p. 428. Export figures for those years represent mixed gold and currency values.
Figures cover fiscal years to and including 1915; thereafter, calendar years. Import data are "general
imports" through 1933; "imports for consumption" thereafter. Areas of districts were rearranged
July 1, 1913. Prior to that date some of the districts were more restricted. However, in most cases
this change only slightly affects the comparability of the figures. Prior to 1914 the statistics given in
the table for Buffalo include the (former) districts of Buffalo Creek and Niagara; those for Michigan
include the (former) districts of Superior, Huron, and Detroit; and those for Massachusetts and Maryland
were the former districts of Boston and Baltimore, respectively.

32.— COMMERCE OF NONCONTIGUOUS TERRITORIES
GENERAL NOTE— In the general foreign trade statistics of the United States presented in the preceding
section, the Philippines and prior to 1935, Virgin Islands, are treated as foreign countries and their trade
with the United States is included while their trade with other countries is not included. On the other
hand, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, and Alaska, and beginning Jan. 1, 1935, Virgin Islands, are treated as integral
parts of the United States, so that trade between them and continental United States is not included,
while trade between them and foreign countries is included; each of these territories appears as a separate
customs district. Neither trade of American Samoa and Guam with foreign countries nor shipments
between them and United States are included in the general tables on foreign trade. See also table 499,
The tables in this section present the total foreign trade of each of the United States territories and
possessions and show separately the trade with continental United States (unless otherwise indicated)
and with foreign countries, including other United States territories and possessions. For basis of dollar
values, see general note, p. 428.
No. 532.— IMPORTS AND EXPORTS OF ALASKA
NOTE.— In 1936 Alaska shipped domestic silver valued at $217,201 to the United States.

Philippine figures of imports from the United States in corresponding peri
1911 and th
is due chiefly to the f ac
that the Philippine import figures prior to that year omit merchandise imported free of duty for the use o
the Government or for use in construction and equipment of railways in the islands, under the act of Feb
6, 1905, while the United States returns omit only Government supplies carried by Government vessels

DRAINAGE
No. 553. — DRAINAGE: SUMMARY FOR THE UNITED STATES
NOT*:.— The statistics for drainage on farms in the first part of this table were collected from the individual
farmers while those for drainage enterprises were obtained from a special canvass of organized drainage
enterprises. A farm may have artificial drainage without being connected with any general enterprise;
conversely, a general enterprise may facilitate the ultimate removal of water from a farm which has itself
no artificial drainage. Drainage enterprises comprise public corporations and local improvement districts
established under State laws relating to drainage, commercial enterprises draining land for sale, other
organizations engaged in extensive land drainage work, and tracts of 500 acres or more drained by individ-
ual farm owners. The enterprises may include timbered and other unimproved land not yet in farms.
The canvass of drainage enterprises did not include any of the northeastern States, and no enterprises
were found in Alabama or West Virginia, and in 1919 none also in Virginia

J For definition of urban and rural, see headnote, table 7, p. 6.
3 The 1930 and 1935 farm population comprises all persons living on farms without regard to occupation;
the 1920 figures include also those farm laborers (and their families) who, while not living on farms, lived
outside the limits of any incorporated place. A further difference is due to the fact that the 1920 and 1935
censuses were taken in January, while the 1930 census was taken in April, when the number of persons on
farms is appreciably larger. For farm population by States see table 10, p. 8, and table 574, p. 596.
4 Data collected for 1925 are not strictly comparable with figures for other years.
8 Includes crop land harvested, crop failure, crop land lying idle or fallow, and plowable pasture.
8 "Improved land"; figures nominally include land available for crops and land occupied by buildings,
yards, and barnyards.
7 These figures include the value of fences, tile drains, and other incidental improvements on the land,
excluding only the value of buildings.
8 See note 1 on "livestock" table 560, p. 581.

FARM MORTGAGE DEBT
593
No. 570.— NUMBER OF MORTGAGED FARMS AND MORTGAGE DEBT:
BY STATES
NOTE.— Data in the following table are partly estimated. A part of the sectional differences in changes in
the proportion of farms mortgaged and the trend of mortgage debt from 1930 to 1935 is accounted for by
variations among the States in the change in the number, acreage, and value of farms. The number
and acreage of farms and the value of land and buildings for 1930 and 1935 are shown for all farms in tables
558 and 560 and for owner farms in tables 564, 565, and 568, respectively.

FARM VALUE AND INCOME
607
No. 584.— ESTIMATED FARM VALUE OF PRODUCTS, GROSS INCOME, AND
CASH INCOME: BY COMMODITIES
NOTE.— Farm values of crops and animal products are obtained by multiplying State quantities by State
average prices. Prices used in most cases are weighted averages— for animal products, calendar-year
averages; for crops,
value of farm production sold
the case of crops, amounts retai .
income relates to the value of quantities actually sold off the farms of States where produced. Farm
values for 1935, and also values for 1934 for a few crops, differ from values shown elsewhere in tables
relating to individual crops, as the latter are based on revised estimates of production . The farm values
here shown are those used, however, in computing the gross income and cash income figures, which
have not yet been revised

1 Includes only value of animals specified in the preceding columns.
1 Census returns prior to 1900 represented "milch" cows; in 1900, cows kept for milk 2 years old and
over; in 1910, cows and heifers kept for milk born before Jan. 1, 1909 (estimated number 2 years old
and over Jan. 1, 17,125,000); in 1920 and 1925, dairy cows and heifers 2 years old and over; in 1930, cows
and heifers, born before 1928, kept mainly for milk production. Census data are not available for 1935.
Estimates as of Jan. 1 represent cows and heifers 2 years old and over kept for milk.
3 Estimates by Bureau of Agricultural Economics, Department of Agriculture; value, 1915 to 1919, com-
puted by Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce, based on United States average price for each class.
Values for later years represent sum of values by age groups.
No. 598.— DOMESTIC ANIMALS AND CHICKENS ON FARMS: NUMBER AND
VALUE, BY CLASSES, AND NUMBER OF FARMS REPORTING
NOTE.— Data for 1925 and 1935 are as of Jan. 1 and for 1930, as of Apr. 1. Owing to the difference in the
date of enumeration, the figures for 1930 are not closely comparable with those for other years. The
total value of all livestock for which data were collected at each census is shown in table 556, p. 574.
Available data for number and value of certain classes not shown in the table below are as follows: Asses
and burros, 1930, number, 48,000, value, $1,881,000; turkeys over 3 months old, 1935, number, 5,382,000,
value, $11,668,000; hives of bees (on farms and elsewhere), 1930, number, 3,108,000, value, $13,632,000

No. 610. — MEATS AND LARD : PRODUCTION, FOREIGN TRADE, AND CONSUMPTION
NOTE.— All figures, except per capita in millions of pounds. Pork production represents total hog carcass
weight, less raw fat from carcass which was rendered into lard. Other meat production represents dressed
carcass weight only, with edible byproducts excluded. Lard production represents rendered weight of
lard. Uninspected production includes farm, retail, and non-Federally inspected wholesale slaughter.
Meat obtained from cattle, calves, and sheep purchased for slaughter by Federal Government in 1934 and
1935 in connection with drought relief activities and pork and lard from sows and pigs slaughtered for
Federal Government in August and September 1933 are not included. Exports and imports of meats
comprise the different kinds of meat converted to a dressed carcass weight basis. Lard exports represent
rendered lard including neutral lard. Exports include shipments to noncontiguous Territories of Alaska,
Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and Virgin Islands. Imports for years prior to 1913 are 2-year moving averages of
fiscal year totals of imports for consumption; figures for 1913 to 1917 are adjusted calendar year totals
compiled from fiscal year data of imports for consumption and calendar year data of general imports.
Consumption represents production plus imports less exports with allowance from 1916 on for changes in
storage stocks

No. 621. — WOOL: PRODUCTION, IMPORTS, AND EXPORTS OF THE UNITED STATES
NOTE.— All figures in thousands of pounds. Production, except Census data, is estimated and is for calen-
dar years. Pulled wool is included beginning 1900 and was probably included for 1870 to 1899, though
the exact basis of the estimates for these years is not known. Figures for 1839, 1849, and 1859 include
only fleece. Exports and imports for 1839 are for the fiscal year ended Sept. 30; for 1849 and 1859, fiscal
years ended June 30; subsequently, calendar years. Imports and foreign exports prior to 1914 and domes-
tic exports include hair of the Angora goat, alpaca, and other like animals

PRINCIPAL CROPS
637
No. 630.— SUMMARY FOR PRINCIPAL CROPS: ESTIMATED ACREAGE, YIELD,
PRODUCTION, VALUE, AND AVERAGE PRICE RECEIVED BY FARMERS
NOTE. — Tons are of 2,000 pounds. For weights of the units of measurement for principal products, see
Appendix, p. 839. The approximate weights of units of measurement for other products are as follows:
Number of pounds to a bushel— sweetpotatoes, 54; grain sorghums, 56; clover seed, 60. Number of
pounds to a barrel of cranberries, 100. Prices and yields for the periods are weighted averages except for
cotton and cottonseed, which are simple averages of prices and yields for the individual years. Acreage,
production, and yield of all crops except cranberries have been revised to census data

No. 640. — COTTON AND COTTONSEED : ACREAGE, PRODUCTION, AND FARM
VALUE, BY STATES
NOTE. — Cotton production excludes linters. Figures for production in some States differ slightly from
Census figures on ginnings due to ginnings in one State of cotton grown in another. Where figures are
not shown for the individual States, separate data are not available for the entire period but are included
in the United States totals. Yields and prices for the periods are simple averages of figures for individual
years. Tons are of 2,000 pounds

No. 659. — COTTON: PRODUCTION, CONSUMPTION, EXPORTS, IMPORTS, AND
PRICES
NOTE. — Production, consumption, and exports beginning 1914 are in thousands of running bales (counting
round as half bales) ; these items prior to 1914, and net imports, all years, are in thousands of 500-pound
bales, gross weight. Production statistics relate to the growth year indicated in the stub. Other sta-
tistics for the most part relate to the 12-month period roughly corresponding to the marketing of the
crop; there have been minor variations from time to time in the periods covered, but consumption,
exports, and imports, beginning 1914, and prices, beginning 1910, are for the 12 months ended July 31
following the year indicated in the stub. Prices for 1902 to 1909 represent the price of the average grade
marketed in New Orleans up to April 1 of the following year; from 1910 to date, the average price on the
farm of all lint cotton throughout the country

1 Figures do not take into account the vast amount of intangible and indirect damage resulting from
forest fires, such as that through decay of damaged timbers, replacements of desirable species of trees by
less desirable but more fire-resistant ones, soil deterioration and erosion, loss of wild life, uncertain stream

NOTE. — Statistics are not comparable with those for earlier years shown in the 1931 and previous issues
of the Statistical Abstract owing to the exclusion of data for the petroleum and natural-gas industries
(no data having been collected in 1929) and the inclusion of data for the sand and gravel, glass-sand,
and moulding-sand industries (data having been collected for the first time in 1929)

No. 709.— PRODUCING MINES AND QUARRIES: SUMMARY, BY STATES
NOTE. — Figures for 1919 and 1929 have been revised to make them comparable except for 1919 where data
for revision were not available, and for certain States for 1929 where revision would result in disclosure of
individual operations. Therefore, the totals for the United States are less than the sum of the figures for
the States for both years and for geographic divisions for 1919; also the totals for most of the geographic
divisions for 1929 are less than the sum of the figures for the States

MINES AND QUARRIES
No. 710.— PRODUCING MINES AND QUARRIES: SUMMARY BY INDUSTRIES,
CONTINENTAL UNITED STATES
NOTE. — Figures for 1919 and 1929 for the limestone, sandstone, abrasive materials, and silica industries
are not strictly comparable, owing to the inclusion or exclusion of data for 1929 not similarly treated for
1919. For the limestone industry, data for quarrying operations of lime and cement manufacturers are
included in the figures for 1929 but not in those for 1919. For the sandstone industry, data for enter-
prises whose product was ground into glass or molding sand, or used as refractory materials (siliceous
mica schist and ganister), etc., are included in the figures for 1919 but excluded from those for 1929 and
included in the figures for the glass-sand, molding-sand, abrasive-materials, or silica industries, according
to the nature and purpose of the final product. Data for diatomaceous earth are included in the figures
for abrasive materials in 1919 and in those for silica in 1929

No. 715.— MINERAL PRODUCTION, BY STATES
NOTE. — The sum of the State totals in the table below does not agree with the total for the United States
given in tables 705 and 714 chiefly because of the following reasons: (1) Figures for certain of the products
included in the United States total are not available by States of origin; (2) the use of iron ore values in
State totals and pig iron values in United States total; (3) the use of mine figures for gold, silver, copper,
lead, and zinc in the State totals and mint and smelter figures in the United States total; and (4) the
inclusion of estimates in the United States total for a few products for which no canvass has been con-
ducted for many years and for which no estimate by States is made

MINERAL PRODUCTS
No. 721.— PRODUCTS OF STEEL WORKS AND ROILING MILLS, AND OF THE
WIRE, TIN-PLATE, AND CAST-IRON PIPE INDUSTRIES
NOTE.— The overlapping of the industries shown in this table results in considerable duplication in ton-
nages shown. The products chiefly used further in manufacture are wire rods, plates and sheets, black
plates for tinning, and skelp. The figures under "Wire," "Tin and terneplate," and "Cast-iron pipe
and fittings" include data for products of these departments of steel works and rolling mills and of all
other industries producing these commodities. For more detailed statistics, see Census reports for
these industries.

No. 729. — COPPER : PRODUCTION, EXPORTS, IMPORTS, AND CONSUMPTION
OTE.— All quantities except ore produced in millions and tenths of millions of pounds. Production
figures include continental United States and Alaska. Owing to the varying stages of production, the
stocks in different classes of hands, the redistribution of copper previously purchased, the recovery and
use of old copper, etc., calculations of consumption are somewhat uncertain. The American Bureau
of Metal Statistics presents consumption estimates rather widely different from those given below. Con-
sumpti9n as shown represents the quantity of copper withdrawn on domestic account, but not actual
domestic consumption, as no account is taken of consumers' stocks

No. 739. — GOLD AND SILVER: PRODUCTION FROM MINES IN CONTINENTAL
UNITED STATES, ALASKA, PUERTO Rico, AND PHILIPPINE ISLANDS
NOTE.— The value of gold, in terms of money, being at a fixed rate, is not shown in the table. Gold is valued
at $20.67+ per fine troy ounce from 1837 through 1933. In 1933, however, varying higher prices prevailed
subsequent to the Executive order of Aug. 29. The value of gold production for 1933, as computed by
the Bureau of Mines, was $65,338,000, including $52,842,000 calculated at legal coinage value ($20.67+ per
ounce) plus $12,485,000 premium calculated at average weighted price ($25.56 per ounce). On Jan. 31,
1934, the legal value of gold was fixed at $35 per fine ounce. The value of silver given is commerci?.! value,
except for 1921 to June 1923 and beginning 1934 (see footnotes 1 and 2), which has differed materially from
coinage value

No. 741. — -SILVER: PRICE AND VALUE OP SILVER IN THE DOLLAR
NOTE. — The London price is converted to the basis of the ounce 1.000 fine and converted to American
money at par of exchange through 1933; thereafter, at the current rate of exchange. London quotations
are in depreciated currency after Sept. 21, 1931, also in some prior year periods, including 1918 to 1924.
Xew York quotations are in depreciated currency after early March 1933. The commercial ratio is com-
puted on the basis of London quotations through 1914; thereafter, on the basis of the New York average
price. Beginning with 1934 the monetary value of gold is $35.00 per fine ounce as compared with $20.67
in previous years. The value of fine silver (37U4 grains) in the dollar is computed on the basis of London
quotations through 1917; thereafter, on the basis of the New York average price

OF STATISTICS
NOTE.— Population severed and number of customers in thousands, gas produced, purchased, and sold in
millions of cubic feet ; revenue in thousands of dollars. Companies formerly distributing manufactured
gas but which were distributing natural gas at the beginning of 1937 have been excluded from the figures
for manufactured gas and included with those for natural gas for all years shown in this table. Com-
panies selling mixed manufactured and natural gas are included with data for manufactured gas. Figures
for natural gas do not include natural gas used in field operations or in the manufacture of carbon black,
or gas used by distributing companies in the conduct of their gas operations

31.— MANUFACTURES
[Data in this section relate to continental United States except as noted. For additional statistics regarding
food manufacturing industries and mineral manufacturing industries see sections on Farm Animals and
Animal Products, Farm Crops and Foodstuffs, and Mining and Mineral Products]
GENERAL NOTE.— Prior to 1899 census statistics of manufactures were collected decennially and from
then to 1919 every five years. Beginning with 1921 data are being collected every two years. For the
census of 1899 and previous censuses data were collected for both factories and hand and neighborhood
industries. For the census years 1904 to 1919, inclusive, factories having products valued at $500 or more
were included, but the statistics beginning 1921 (except as to certain major items shown for that year in
table 778 only) , relate only to establishments having products valued at $5,000 or more. However, in 1921,
establishments having products valued at $500 or more but less than $5,000, while constituting 21. 6 per cent
of the total number of establishments, employed only six-tenths of 1 per cent of the total number of wage
earners, and had an output of only three-tenths of 1 per cent of the total value of products.
The value of products represents the selling value at the factory. Figures of total cost of materials, etc.,
and total value of products for many individual industries, for all groups of industries, and especially for
all industries combined, involve much duplication. This is due to the use of products of a given estab-
lishment as material for another in the same or a different industry.
The statistics for automobile repairing, collected for 1914 and 1919, have been excluded from tables 776
and 778. Data for "Coffee and spices, roasting and grinding" are excluded in the third section of table 776
and in tables 777 and 780 for all years, and data for "Peanuts, walnuts, and other nuts, processed or shelled"
are excluded in table 777 and from figures beginning with 1927 in tables 776 and 780, no data having been
collected for these industries at the 1933 and 1935 censuses. Data for these industries, however, are included
in tables 778 and 779. As there are no comparable figures for "Peanuts, walnuts, etc.," for years prior to
1927, no adjustment for this industry can be made for earlier years. Data for "Poultry killing, dressing,
and packing, wholesale" are included for all years except 1927, for which year this industry was not can-
vassed. In table 776, data for central-administrative-office employees have been excluded beginning 1923.
The figures for 1914, 1919, and 1921, however, include such data.
At the census for 1933 the smaller establishments in many industries were canvassed by means of an
abridged schedule which did not call for detailed data on production, and therefore the production figures
for certain industries are somewhat incomplete. In cases in which the degree of incompleteness was suffi-
cient to affect the comparableness of the statistics for different census years, the 1933 figures have been
omitted from tables presenting detailed statistics of production in this issue of the Statistical Abstract.
Data for 1933 and also 1931 figures adjusted for comparison with those for 1933 were shown, however, in the
1936 issue.

1 To make the percentages for the number of establishments comparable, those for all 6 years have been
based on the number of establishments reporting products valued at $5,000 or more. The percentages for
other items, however, have not been similarly adjusted, the comparability of these percentages having
been affected very slightly by the omission of small establishments in 1923, 1925, and 1929.
J No data for establishments with products under $5,000 in value have been collected since 1921.
* Data for these 53,999 establishments are not included in other tables showing statistics for 1921.
« Includes data for the $500,000 to $1 ,000,000 class. * Data included with the $100,000 to $500,000 class.

1 Calculated for all groups except 2 and 5 and for part of the industries in those groups, by subtracting
cost of materials, containers, fuel, and purchased electric energy from value of products. Calculated for
industries in groups 2 and 5 in which cost of contract work is important, and for industries that are closely
related to others in which cost of contract work is important, by subtracting sum of cost of materials, con-
tainers, fuel, and purchased electric energy and cost of contract work from value of products. Not strictly
comparable with earlier years.
2 Calculated, for all industries, by first method described in note 1. Figures are strictly comparable with
those for years prior to 1935.
a Not called for on schedules for 1931 and 1933 and not tabulated for 1935.
< Revised; data for "Wool pulling" transferred to group 16 from group 2 and data for "Hats, straw, men's"
transferred from group 16 to group 2.
« Calculated for part of the industries in this group by the first method and for the remaining industries
by the second method described in note 1. Figures for years prior to 1935 for the printing and publishing
group were calculated for all industries by the first method described in note 1.
« Revised; calculated for part of the industries in this group, by first method, for the remaining industries
by the second method described in note 1; revision not carried into total for all groups.
7 Revised; data for "Engravers' materials" and "Printers' supplies" transferred from group 5 to group 13.
8 Revised; data for "Stamped and pressed metal products; enameling, japanning, and lacquering"
transferred from group 12 to group 1 1 .
9 The decrease in the 1927 figures was chiefly due to practical ceasing of operations of a large company
for a few months of the year.
0 Revised by deduction of data for shops doing light repair work only; comparable with 1935.
11 Comparable with statistics for prior years.
!2 Includes internal revenue tax paid by tobacco manufacturers. This amounted to $422,027,000 in 1931,
$400,843,000 in 1933, and $477,882,000 in 1935.
13 The "Cost of materials, etc.," does not include internal revenue tax paid by tobacco manufacturers.

MANUFACTURES, BY SPECIFIED INDUSTRIES
743
No. 781. — MANUFACTURES: SUMMARY FOR INDIVIDUAL INDUSTRIES
NOTE.— The figures given in this table do not represent exactly the numbers of wage earners, values of
products, etc., assignable to the classes of commodities from which the industries derive their names,
as it is necessary for census purposes to classify each establishment as a whole in some one industry,
according to its product of chief value, although in many cases a single establishment manufactures
two or more classes of commodities. The figures for cost of materials and value of products for each
group and each subgroup include considerable duplication due to the use of the products of one industry
as the materials for another, and in some cases similar duplication occurs within an industry. Value
added by manufacture is calculated, for most industries, by subtracting cost of materials, containers,
fuel, and purchased electric energy from value of products. Calculated for industries in which cost of
contract work is important, and for industries that are closely related to others in which cost of contract
work is important, by subtracting sum of cost of materials, containers, fuel, and purchased electric energy
and cost of contract work from value of products. Industry figures calculated by the second method
and totals including such figures are indicated by asterisks. No data for horsepower were collected for
1931 and 1933 and no data were compiled for 1935. For totals for all industries and for 16 industrial groups
see table 780. Four census years have been shown for all industries that reported $200,000,000 or more in
value of products or over 50,000 wage earners in 1929, and three census years for other industries, except as
indicated by footnotes. See also gener al note, p. 738.

38 Figures for 1931 (except those in italics) and 1933 revised to include data for manufacturers of tractors,
formerly classified in "Engines, turbines, water wheels, and windmills" industry. The figures for 1931
in italics are comparable with figures for 1929 which have not been revised.
39 Formerly "Cash registers and adding, calculating, and card-tabulating machines." Manufacturers of
duplicating machines, check-writing machines, and manifolding machines, classified in this industry in
1935, were formerly assigned to "Foundry and machine-shop products." The figures for 1933 have been
revised accordingly. Comparable figures are not available for 1929.
37 Prior to 1931 this industry included radio apparatus and tubes included beginning with 1931 in a new
classification, "Radio apparatus and phonographs." Figures for 1931 in italics were adjusted for com-
parison with those for 1929.
38 Figures for 1931 (except those in italics) and 1933 revised to exclude data for manufacturers of tractors
formerly classified in this industry. Figures for 1931 in italics and those for 1929 have not been revised.
3» Formerly a single industry; now the six industries following. Figures for 1929, 1931, and 1933 revised to
include data for "Elevators and elevator equipment," classified separately for 1931 and 1933, but now
included in "Machinery, n. e. c.," and for "Engravers' materials" and "Printers' supplies" now in-
cluded in "Printers' machinery and equipment"; and to exclude data for certain products formerly
assigned to "Foundry and machine-shop products" but now included in "Cash registers," etc. (see note
36). Revised 1929 data for horsepower are not available.
40 New classification; formerly part of "Foundry and machine-shop products." Figures for 1933 compiled
for comparison with 1935.
41 New classification; formerly part of "Foundry and machine-shop products." No comparable figures
available for earlieryears.

i Revised; revision not carried into total for group.
" Not strictly comparable with data for 1933 and 1935.
26 No comparable data for 1929.
« This classification covers "Refrigerat9rs and refrigerator cabinets, exclusive of mechanical refrigerating
equipment" and "Refrigerators, mechanical", formerly separate classifications in groups 3 and 13, respec-
tively, and also includes, beginning 1931, statistics for a small number of establishments producing indus-
trial ice-making and refrigerating machinery, formerly included in "Foundry and machine-shop products."
As figures for 1929 do not include the establishments producing industrial ice-making and refrigerating
machinery, they are not comparable with those for later years.
«3 No comparable data for 1929. Radio apparatus was formerly included in "Electrical machinery, ap-
paratus, and supplies" and "Phonographs", was a separate industry in the "Miscellaneous indus-
tries" group.

44 Classification revised to exclude shops engaged in light repair work only. Figures for 1933 in italics
revised for comparison with 1935. Other figures for 1933 are comparable with 1929 and 1931.
45 Figures include internal-revenue tax; figures in italics for 1931 exclude internal-revenue tax and are
comparable with those for 1929.
46 No comparable figure because of the fact that the amount of internal-revenue tax is included in the
"Cost of materials" for 1931, 1933, and 1935, but not for prior ye ars, while this tax is included in the figures for
"Value of products" for all years. ("Value added by manufacture" equals "Value of products" less "Cost
of materials, etc.").
47 Revised to exclude data for "Hats, straw, men's" and to include data for "Wool pulling."

no data having been collected for these industries at the 1933 and 1935 censuses. The figures for 1927, except
the United States totals in italics, include data for these industries. Data for "Poultry killing and dress-
ing" are included for all years except 1927, for which year this industry was not canvassed. Statistics
for horsepower were not collected for 1931 and 1933 and were not compiled for 1935. See also general note,
p. 738.

3 Includes internal -revenue tax paid by tobacco manufacturers amounting to $239,125,000 for 1931, and
$205,689,000 for 1933, and $242,158,000 for 1935.
3 The "Cost of materials" does not include internal-revenue tax paid by tobacco manufacturers and
the "Value added by manufacture" for these years is, therefore, overstated by the amount of such tax.

No. 804.— COTTON SPINDLES, COTTON CONSUMPTION, AND STOCKS
NOTE.— The statistics for 1915 to 1937 relate to the 12 months ended July 31 and those for prior years to
the 12 ninths ended Aug. 31. Consumption and stocks are expressed in running bales, counting round
as half bales, except that all figures, 1840 to 1870, inclusive, and foreign cotton for all years are in equivalent
500-pound bales. The number of active cotton spindles represents spindles operated at some time during
the year, and is not as satisfactory a measure of activity of the industry as active spindle hours.

32. DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE AND AMUSEMENT
INDUSTRIES
No. 814.— DISTRIBUTION OF MANUFACTURERS' SALES : COMPARISON BETWEEN
PRIMARY CHANNELS OF DISTRIBUTION USED IN 1929 AND 1935
NOTE.— Figures do not cover sales or distribution expenses of manufacturers' own wholesale branches or
retail stores, which are covered in data for wholesale trade and retail trade, respectively. Figures were
not compiled for industries: (1) Where no outside sales were made, the plants being maintained for the
purpose of making repairs, such as railroad repair shops; (2) where sales were made direct to users, the
value of products in most instances comprising the sale of services, such as engraving and lithographing
industries; (3) in which the plants were engaged, for the most part, in performing labor on materials
owned by others so that their sales represented the sales of services rather than commodities, such as
electroplating and galvanizing industries; and (4) where the plants of one organization so dominated
that to show distribution of sales figures would disclose individual operations. The following table is
limited to industries which are directly comparable in 1929 and 1935, while table 815 covers all industries
for which 1935 data were compiled

1 Estimated by Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce, based on trends of currently published data.
3 The 1935 census figures for the food group include some stores classified as country general stores in
prior censuses, as commodity data on the 1935 schedules indicated that many stores operating under tho
name of "General stores," and so classified in previous censuses, were essentially food stores. Estimates
by the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce for the "Food group" and "Farmers' supply and coun-
try general stores group," for 1929 to 1934, adjusting for these shifts in classifications in the 1935 census,
follow (figures In millions of dollars): "Food group"— 1929, 11,377; 1930, 10,809; 1931, 9,443; 1932, 7,623; 1933,
7,168; 1934 7,737; "Farmers' supply and country general stores"— 1929, 2,994; 1930, 2,305; 1931, 1,647; 1932,
988; 1933, 1,266; 1934, 1,512.

1 Estimated by Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce, based on trends of currently published data.
1 The 1935 census figures for the food group include some stores classified as country general stores in
prior censuses, as commodity data on the 1935 schedules indicated that many stores operating under the
name of "General stores," and so classified in previous censuses, were essentially food stores. Estimates
by the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce for the "Food group" and "Farmers' supply and coun-
try general stores group," for 1929 to 1934, adjusting for these shifts in classifications in the 1935 census,
follow (figures in millions of dollars): "Food group"— 1929, 11,377; 1930, 10,809; 1931, 9,443; 1932, 7,623; 1933,
7,168; 1934, 7,737; "Farmers' supply and country general stores"— 1929, 2,994; 1930, 2,305; 1931, 1,647; 1932,
988; 1933, 1,266; 1934, 1,512.

No. 830.— INDEXES OF DOLLAR VALUES OF AUTOMOBILE RETAIL SALES,
VARIETY STORE SALES, GROCERY CHAIN STORE SALES, AND RETAIL
SALES OF GENERAL MERCHANDISE IN SMALL TOWNS AND RURAL AREAS
NOTE.— Indexes of automobile sales are based on unit sales figures reported monthly to the Automobile
Manufacturers' Association, which represent over 95 percent of all dealer's sales. The unit sales figures
are converted to dollar volume by the use of a computed "average realized price." Indexes of sales in small
towns and rural areas are based on figures furnished by three mail-order companies for sales by mail
only and by a large group of chain units operating in small towns and cities which serve the rural popula-
tion. Sales of repprting concerns represent about one-fifth of all general merchandise sales in places of less
than 30,000 inhabitants. Indexes of both variety store sales and grocery chain store sales are based on
figures furnished by chain organizations doing more than 75 percent of the business in the respective
fields. For the variety store index adjustment has been made for changes in the number of stores operated
by the companies so that the index reflects sales changes for a constant number 9f stores. All indexes are
computed from dollar sales reduced to a daily average basis. In computing the index of automobile sales,
equal weight is given to all days of the month, while in computing the other three indexes, allowance is
made for the varying number of business days in the months and the varying sales importance of the
different days of the week. The monthly indexes of all four series are adjusted for seasonal changes and,
in addition, the variety-store index is adjusted for the changing date of Easter.

SERVICE ESTABLISHMENTS
817
No. 833. — SERVICE ESTABLISHMENTS: SUMMARY BY STATES, 1935
NOTE. — The census of service establishments covers a heterogeneous group of kinds of business (see table
832) primarly engaged in the sale of service, as distinguished from establishments dealing in merchan-
dise. The professional field, the financial, education, transportation, construction, and diverse other
fields of business activity, many of which are covered elsewhere, are not included. Owing to differ-
ences in the scope of the 1933 and 1935 censuses of service establishments, the aggregates for 1935 are not
comparable with the aggregates for 1933 published in the 1936 issue of this report.

SERVICE ESTABLISHMENTS AND HOTELS
No. 834.— POWER LAUNDRIES, CLEANING AND DYEING ESTABLISHMENTS,
AND RUG-CLEANING ESTABLISHMENTS: SUMMARY OF CENSUS STATISTICS
NOTE. — All money figures in thousands of dollars. Statistics cover establishments reporting receipts of
$5,000 or more. Data for power laundries relate to commercial laundries. Data for cleaning and dyeing
establishments are restricted to establishments using mechanical power; they include cleaning and dyeing
departments of laundries where separate data could be obtained. Rug-cleaning, which was given a
separate classification beginning with 1933, was treated in general as an activity of the power laundry
industry at prior censuses; statistics include rug-cleaning departments of laundries and of cleaning and
dyeing plants so far as they were reported separately. Data for 1933 are incomplete, as about 15 percent
of the laundries and 24 percent of the cleaning and dyeing establishments that had reported for 1931 failed
to supply any information as to their status or activities in 1933. The laundries that failed to report
accounted for around 8 percent of the 1931 totals for number of wage earners and receipts for work done
for all laundries, while the cleaning and dyeing establishments that did not report accounted for about
15 percent of the 1931 totals for these two items for cleaning and dyeing establishments.

No. 838.— PLACES OF
AMUSEMENT: SUMMARY FOR
KINDS OF BUSINESS, 1935
THE UNITED STATES BY
NOTE.— The Census includes places of amusement (except those operated by educational institutions,
municipalities, or other governmental agencies, or fraternal or religious organizations) charging admis-
sion, or receiving fees for use of recreational facilities. It is definitely known that the coverage is seriously
incomplete, due primarily to the absence of legislation which during regular census years makes report-
ing mandatory. Incompleteness arises also from the difficulty of securing reports from many seasonal
and transient amusement enterprises, which were not in operation at the time of the canvass. Fur-
thermore, the nature of some amusement enterprises and of the business which they conduct is such
that it was difficult to make the contacts necessary to secure reports.

No. 841.— REAL ESTATE AGENCIES AND BROKERAGE OFFICES: SUMMARY
FOR THE UNITED STATES, 1935
NOTE.— Commissions and fees and pay roll in thousands of dollars. The census covers only offices whose
income from real-estate sources consists principally of commissions and fees derived from such activities
as real-estate sales, real-estate rentals, real-estate management, appraisals, etc. Offices reporting both a
real estate and an insurance activity are included under the designation "Insurance and real-estate
offices." Due to the fact that reporting to the 1935 census was not mandatory and to the difficulties
experienced by enumerators in identifying as real-estate offices those establishments conducting a real-
estate business in connection with other businesses, the coverage is incomplete

33.— CONSTRUCTION AND HOUSING
No. 842.— CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS AWARDED IN 37 STATES: BY
CLASSES
NOTE.— Data compiled from reports covering contracts awarded in small towns and rural districts as
well as large cities. Public works and public utilities cover some projects not susceptible to measurement
in terms of floor space, such as highways, pipe lines, subways, etc. Statistics for the 37 States were not
compiled for years prior to 1925, but available figures covering a varied number of States for earlier years
have been published in the 1932 and previous issues of this publication. Figures for the individual
States and districts in table 843 represent the value of construction contracts awarded in the State or
district where the work is actually performed.

No. 845.— INDEXES OF THE VALUE OF CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS
AWARDED
NOTE.— 1928-25 a verage= 100. Indexes are derived from monthly figures of construction 'contracts awarded
reported by the F. W. Dodge Corporation. Reports included 37 States beginning with May 1924 and a
varied number for earlier years. In order to obtain comparable figures from 1919 to date, the total value
of construction contracts awarded in 37 States was estimated for January 1919 through April 1924. Sea-
sonal adjustments were computed separately for "residential" and "all other" types of construction
and the two series combined. The indexes are based on a 3-months moving average, centered at the
middle month. For a more detailed description of the indexes, see the Federal Reserve Bulletin for
July 1931.

CONSTRUCTION
No. 846.— BUIIDING PERMITS ISSUED IN PRINCIPAL CITIES
NOTE.— Figures cover new buildings and repairs to old buildings, but exclude data for installation permits
(those for installing boilers, signs, etc.) which are not strictly building operations. These permits are
rather numerous, but in value they are of small amount. The number figures represent the number of
buildings covered by permits issued (new construction and repairs, etc.), rather than the number of
permits. Buildings authorized by permit are not always actually constructed, and the actual cost of
those constructed may differ considerably from that originally estimated. The cities shown had a
population of 50,000 or over in 1930.

No. 848.— ESTIMATED COST OF BUILDING CONSTRUCTION, FAMILIES
PROVIDED FOR, AND POPULATION FOR 257 IDENTICAL CITIES
XOTE.— The estimated cost of buildings is based upon building permits issued for new buildings and re-
pairs to old buildings, but does not include data for installation permits (those for installing boilers, signs,
etc.) which are not strictly building operations. These permits are rather numerous, but in value they
are of small amount . Buildings authorized by permit are not always actually constructed, and the actual
cost of those constructed may differ considerably- from that originally estimated

No. 849.— CONSTRUCTION, AND PROFESSIONAL, TECHNICAL, AND CLER-
ICAL PROJECTS FINANCED FROM FEDERAL FUNDS : VALUE OF CONTRACTS
AWARDED AND FORCE-ACCOUNT PROJECTS STARTED
NOTE.— In thousands of dollars. In the case of Federal projects financed from Public Works Administra-
tion funds the entire amount is allotted to Federal departments or agencies. The work is performed by
commercial firms under contracts or, if a force-account project (no contract let), by day labor hired
directly by the Federal agencies. In the case of allotments to States and local governments for non-
Federal projects the Public Works Administration makes a direct grant of not more than 30 percent of
the total labor and material cost on projects financed from funds appropriated under the National
Industrial Recovery Act and not more than 45 percent of the total labor and material cost on projects
financed by funds provided under the Emergency Relief Appropriation Acts of 1935 and 1936. The
public agency finances the other 70 or 55 percent, in some cases through loans at interest from the Public
Works Administration. Commercial allotments are in the form of loans and for the most part have
been made to railroads.

No. 850.— CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY: UNITED STATES SUMMARY FOR ALL
REPORTING ESTABLISHMENTS, BY KINDS OF BUSINESS, 1935
NOTE.— The 1935 Census covers all reporting contracting establishments which handled work amounting
to $500 or more. Data do not represent all construction work done in the United States as reports were
not received from all contractors. Data for force account construction are not included. In reporting
work performed, each contractor reported only the work performed by his own organization, excluding
the value of work sublet to other contractors. Where State data are shown, figures for value ofwork per-
formed are in accordance with the location of the contracting establishment and do not represent the
amount performed in a given State. The percentage distribution of work performed by the location of
the work is shown in table 852. For further information on the scope and limitations of these data, see
report issued by the Bureau of the Census, entitled "Construction Industry, 1935," Volume I.

URBAN HOUSING — CONSTRUCTION COSTS
No. 856.— RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURES IN 64 CITIES: SELECTED STATISTICS
FROM THE REAL PROPERTY INVENTORY, 1934
NOTE.— The cities included in the real-property inventory were selected from every State in the Union
as a representative sample of urban housing in the United States. The cities chosen vary in size from
a population of 11,000 to more than 1,000,000. The total population of the areas canvassed constituted
about one-seventh of the total urban population of the United States. The survey covered all build-
ings with residential units except hotels, clubs, rooming houses, and summer cottages. Data for the
individual cities included in this summary are shown in table 815 of the 1935 issue of the Statistical

APPROXIMATE WEIGHT OF PETROLEUM AND PRODUCTS
In the United States petroleum and its products are measured by bulk, not
weight. Whether handled in containers or without them the quantities are cus-
tomarily reduced to the equivalent of barrels of 42 United States gallons (barrel
thus equals 158.984 liters). In many foreign countries these commodities are
measured by weight. The specific gravity of the different grades of crude petro-
leum and of the finished products varies materially. On the basis of approximate
averages the Department of Commerce in converting foreign weight statistics
to gallons or barrels of 42 gallons uses the factors shown in the following table:
