THE DATA
of data for the last Wednesday of the preceding month,
the Wednesday on or preceding the 15th of the current
month, and the last Wednesday of the current month.
Data are collected by this Bank and the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System. The Fort
Smith SMSA data cover only those counties within the
Eighth Federal Reserve District.
Selected economic data are provided for five
states, seven Standard and one Nonstandard Metropoli
tan Statistical Areas which are entirely or partially
within the Eighth Federal Reserve District. Also
included are check payment series for ten other
Eighth District cities.
Data are presented in both unadjusted and
seasonally adjusted index form. Index numbers are
on a 1971=100 base. The latest data in most series
are preliminary and are revised as the final figures
are received.
Check payments are debits to demand deposit ac
counts, except interbank and U.S. Government accounts.
The data are based on a sample of commercial banks in
each area adjusted to reflect total debits of all banks
in the area and the number of trading days in the
month. Data are collected by this Bank and the Board
of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
Manpower Utilization
Basic employment data are from the respective
State Employment Security Office and the United
States Department of Labor. All manpower data for
metropolitan areas are based on the redefinition of
SMSA areas announced in late April 1973, except for
Memphis which is a Nonstandard Metropolitan Statisti
cal Area. Memphis data include Shelby and Tipton
Counties in Tennessee and Crittenden County, Arkansas,
but exclude De Soto County, Mississippi.
All banking data remain on the Standard Metro
politan Statistical Area definitions prior to the
April 1973 announcement.
Income
State personal income figures are annual rates
of monthly figures published by Business Week. United
States data are from the Department of Commerce.
Total employment and unemployment series are
household (place-of-residence) data; payroll employ
ment, nonmanufacturing and manufacturing employment
are establishment (place-of-work) data.
Farm cash receipts are annual rates of monthly
figures published by the United States Department of
Agriculture.
Banking Activity
Total loan and total deposit data are for
Federal Reserve member banks only and are averages

SUMMARY OF CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI
Total
Employment*
Employment In the Central Mississippi Valley
(CMV) registered Increases In both the third and fourth
quarters of last year following four quarters of de
cline. The recovery has been stronger in the nonmetro
politan areas than in the larger CMV cities. In the
two quarters of economic recovery, total employment in
the CMV metropolitan areas and states increased at
annual rates of 1.9 and 3.8 percent, respectively, com
pared with a 2.5 percent rate for the nation as a whole.
Employment growth accelerated in the fourth
quarter for the CMV states, while it decelerated in
the metropolitan areas. For example, total employment
in the five CMV states increased at a 6.1 percent annual
rate in the fourth quarter after a modest 1.5 percent
rate of increase in the third quarter. Employment in
the metropolitan areas increased at only an 0.8 percent
rate in the fourth quarter, compared with a 3.1 percent
rate of increase in the previous quarter.
