of the two sources to obtain continuous series covering the
period since 1929.
Descriptions and definitions of the various series contained
in the Supplement have not been repeated. For economy of
space the many footnotes accompanying the tables in the
Supplement have also been omitted, but it should be understood that these footnotes apply equally to the current
estimates. Use of the present tables without reference to
the Supplement may, therefore, lead to misundertanding or
misuse of the data.
Some aspects of the estimates published in this report
should be noted. Adoption of the new Standard Industrial
Classification for manufacturing industries by the Social
Security Administration, effective with its 1947 tabulations,
has in a number of the industry groups impaired the comparability of current social security statistics with those for
earlier years. The estimates of pay rolls and employment
in manufacturing for 1947 and 1948 presented here have been
adjusted to conform to the National Income Division classification, and therefore to the data fof earlier years, by the
use of collateral information. Detailed data from the
Census of Manufactures and special tabulations of the Social
Security Administration have permitted adjustment for
1947 which is believed to be highly accurate; The 1948
estimate for certain of the manufacturing industries is
subject to a somewhat larger margin of error.
Attention should also be drawn to the revision of the construction estimates incorporated in this report. These
include revisions in the published series of new private construction activity prepared jointly by the Office of Domestic
Commerce and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. These
revisions have been incorporated for the period 1939-48.
In addition, it has been known for some time that for
definitional as well as statistical reasons the estimates of new
private construction activity were not sufficiently inclusive
for the purposes of national product measurement. For
most years, however, the magnitudes involved were thought
to be small, and no adjustment was attempted in view of the
fact that the extreme paucity of data made it impossible to
prepare accurate estimates.
With the high level of construction in recent years the items
omitted from the statistics of new private construction

activity that should properly be counted as components of
national product have increased in magnitude. Their
omission from national product seems no longer advisable
even though lack of basic data continues to prevent a precise
estimate. Accordingly, for the purposes of the present
report a set of interim estimates of the major omitted items
was prepared for the period 1939-48 and included in gross
national product under new private construction. The items
covered include major additions and alterations to residential
buildings, profit margins of residential builders, residential
land development costs, settlement and allied charges, engineering and architectural fees, and the value of construction
of a few minor types of nonresidential structures. The
annual magnitudes involved, in billions of dollars, are as
follows: 1939: 0.7, 1940: 0.8, 1941: 0.9, 1942: 0.6, 1943: 0.5,
1944: 0.5, 1945: 0.6, 1946: 1.4, 1947: 1.9, 1948: 2.3. While
it is believed that the estimates reflect the order of magnitude
of the omitted items, it should be emphasized that they are
interim estimates subject to further revision and refinement.
The revisions of the construction estimates have been
carried back only to 1939. This should be taken into account
when comparisons that involve construction are made with
prior years.
One of the greatest difficulties that had to be dealt with
in preparing the current revisions was to measure the substantial effects of the shift from the unincorporated to the
incorporated form of legal organization that began in 1946
and appears to have extended into 1948. This shift affected
particularly the income of unincorporated enterprises and
corporate profits, but had implications also for personal
saving and many other components of the product and income flow. So far only incomplete information is available
on the legal shift that occurred in 1946, and information on
further shifts in 1947 and 1948 is even less satisfactory.
Moreover, such information as exists became available only
shortly before the estimates contained in this report had to
be completed. The utmost effort was made to utilize the
available data in the most effective manner, but, because of
the difficulties of measuring the shift, the estimates for the
product and income components that are most affected are
subject to more than the usual margin of error, especially
with respect to their detailed industrial breakdown.

National Income and Gross National Product Series, 1929-48
THE JULY 1949 issue of the SURVEY OF CURRENT
BUSINESS provides the latest National Income and
Product data covering the years 1942-48. This presentation gives to subscribers the currently official
figures on fundamental measures of the national
economy.
For completely revised series back to 1929, with
detail for all component segments, reference should be
made to the previously published NATIONAL INCOME
SUPPLEMENT to the SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS.
The SUPPLEMENT contains, in addition to extensive
statistical tables, an explanation of fundamental
concepts and procedures underlying the data. That
publication furnishes to business managers and analysts, economists, and students the basic data to




which all subsequently published national income
and gross national product figures are related.
