C., June 1, 1942. The Secretary of L abor: I have the honor to transmit herewith a statistical report on build ing construction in the United States, 1941, prepared under the general direction of Herman B. Byer, Chief of the Bureau’s Division of Construction and Public Employment. The estimates of total construction expenditures were prepared under the supervision of Harold Wolkind, and the estimation of new dwelling units in nonfarm areas was under the supervision of Sidney Jaffe. Nellie E. Ratchford, assisted by Thomas A. Loughrey, was in charge of the tabula tions of building-permit reports, while Edward M. Gordon supervised the tabulations of Federal construction contracts. Kathryn R. Murphy assembled the tables and prepared the text. A. F. H inrichs, Acting Commissioner. Hon. F rances P erkins, Secretary of Labor. u B ulletin T^o. 713 o f the U nited States B ureau o f Labor Statistics Building Construction, 1941 Estimated C on stru ction Expenditures in U nited States The construction industry was one of the first to be stimulated by the war program, since troop housing, military and naval bases, airports, shipyards, ordnance and other war-material plants, and housing for war workers were prerequisites for the all-out war effort. In 1941 construction expenditures for military and civilian require ments reached a total of $10,969,000,000, which was 70 percent above the total for 1939. The Federal Government began awarding contracts for military and industrial facilities on a large scale in the summer of 1940, and the initial effect of these contracts on the volume of construction expenditures is reflected in the increase in military and naval con struction and publicly financed industrial facilities in 1940. How ever, the major part of the 13-percent increase in construction ex penditures between 1939 and 1940 was in privately financed con struction, which represented approximately five-eighths of the 1940 total of $7,299,000,000. Private construction continued to increase in 1941, but at a much slower rate than public construction. Consequently, the public program accounted for almost one-half of the $10,969,000,000 spent for construction in 1941, as contrasted with less than three-eighths of the total in 1940. Acute shortages of certain building materials, particularly metals, necessitated measures to curtail nonessential construction. The S. P. A. B. policy announcement of October 9, 1941, stipulated that no priorities assistance would be given for nonessential construction. However, this order did not prohibit such construction if builders could get material without priorities. The War Production Board Conservation Order Lr-41, which became effective on April 9, 1942, was designed to bring about a much more rigid control of the use of critical materials by providing that no construction could be started (except in a few specified cases) without permission. Furthermore, projects already under construction were being carefully examined by the W. P. B. on an individual basis with the object of halting construction on such projects if the scarce materials to be used in them could be put to more effective use in the war program. With the Federal Government scheduling the largest volume of war construction in the history of the nation, it is anticipated that construction expenditures in 1942 will exceed the 1941 total. Because of the measures to conserve scarce materials, the expansion in public construction will be at the expense of private construction. 1 2 BUILDING CONSTRUCTION, 1 9 4 1 T able !•— Construction expenditures in continental United States , 19S9 to 1 9 4 1 1 Expenditures (millions of dollars) Percentage of total expenditures Function and ownership 1941 1940 1939 1941 1940 1939 A ll construction......... .................................. 10,969 7,299 6,451 100.0 100.0 100.0 Private construction.................................... 5,667 4,604 3,878 51.7 83.1 60.1 Residential (nonfarm) *.........................

Scope o f Data The Bureau of Labor Statistics began collecting data on building permits in 1920, but until the end of 1932 only cities in the population class of 25,000 and over reported. Since then the coverage has been extended several times, and reports are currently being received from incorporated places with populations of 500 or more persons and also from some unincorporated areas. Building-permit data are collected by the Bureau directly from local building officials, except in the States of Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania, where State departments of labor collect and forward the data to the Bureau. In addition, the Bureau receives notifications of construction projects financed by Federal and State Governments. The permit-valuation figures represent estimates of construction costs made by prospective builders when applying for permits to build in the case of privately financed construction, and the value of contracts awarded in the case of construction financed with Federal or State funds. Figures for the Federal Government also include the value of force-account construction started, i. e., construction work for which a Federal agency employs its own labor instead of contract ing for it. No land costs are included. The construction expenditures shown in table 1 are the first in a new series of estimates of the total volume of construction made by the Bureau ol Labor Statistics. These estimates differ in two impor tant respects from other figures shown in this bulletin. First, they represent construction expenditures rather than the value of permits ESTIMATED CONSTRUCTION EXPENDITURES 3 issued or of contracts awarded; and, second, the figures are more com prehensive since they include all types of construction financed with public and private funds. The remainder of this bulletin is a revision and continuation of information on construction activity published in Bulletin No. 693 of United States Bureau of Labor Statistics. It is divided into two parts. Part I outlines major trends in building construction during the period from 1921 through 1941. It is composed of two sections— the first dealing with all types of building construction in reporting cities, and the second, with estimates of residential construction throughout the entire nonfarm area of the United States. Part II, which is also divided into two sections, presents more detailed information on the volume of construction in 1940 and 1941. The first section contains an analysis of building construction in 2,449 cities with populations of 1,000 or more which reported to the Bureau in both 1940 and 1941. The second section contains tabula tions of the amount of construction financed from public funds; it includes other types of construction as well as building construction and also includes construction outside corporate limits. Figures for Federally financed construction are complete, but those for construction financed from State funds cover only two types of construction— public buildings and highways. A tabulation is also presented of the value of street-paving work started in 51 of the larger cities of the United States. Whatever publicly financed building construction was located within the corporate limits of the reporting cities has also been included in the tabulations for reporting cities in other sections of this bulletin.

Covering more than two decades, the figures in table 2 and the chart on page 8 outline cyclical movements in building con struction in these cities. The rise in permit valuations which began in 1939 continued through 1941, when the building industry experienced the best year since 1929. Although permit valuations were more than five times as high in 1941 as in the depths of the depression in 1933, they never theless had not attained half of the volume reported in the peak year, 1925.

Throughout the period from 1930 through 1935, however, permit valuations for nonresidential construction exceeded those for housing, and in 1933 and 1934 the volume of new residential construction fell below that for additions and repairs. The volume of new residential construction has, there fore, shown much wider fluctuations over the past two decades than either of the other classes of construction included in table 2 and the chart on page 8. However, during the defense and current war period nonresidential building has expanded relatively more than housing. The index of new residential construction moved from 152 in 1939 to 175 in 1941 (on the basis of the average for 1935-39 as 100), while that for new nonresidential construction rose from 106 to 225. The index for additions, alterations, and repairs has remained the steadiest of the three throughout the 21-year period. In 1941 it stood at 113, as compared with a peak of 150 in 1929 and a low of 44 in 1932. Five Leading Cities Five cities accounted for approximately 28 percent of the permit valuations in the entire 257 cities during 1941. Although the amount reported for New York City in 1941 was about 15 percent lower than in 1940, that city continued to be the leading center of building-con struction activity in the country. Los Angeles registered a 28-percent increase during 1941, and Washington, D. C., showed almost as great improvement. The increases in Los Angeles were about equally divided between residential and nonresidential buildings, but in Washington they were chiefly for new housing. Chicago returned to the list of 5 leading cities shown in table 3 in 1941, having been displaced by Philadelphia in 1940.

Permit Valuations, Building^Material Prices, and Wage Rates Expanding building activity during the past 3 years has been ac companied by rising prices of building materials and increasing wage rates for building-trades workers. The index of wholesale prices of building materials shown in table 4 was higher in 1941 than in any previous year except 1923. The index of union wage rates per hour in the building trades reached a higher point in 1941 than in any year for which the Bureau has records, and was 15 percent above the average for the 5 years 1935-39.

N ew Dwelling Units Estimates of the number of new dwelling units placed under con struction in the 257 cities during each year from 1910 through 1920 are presented for the first time in table 5. These cities have contained at least five-eighths of the urban population of the United States since 1910, with the distribution among the several geographic divisions approximating that of the total urban population. During the decade 1910-20, the rate of growth of these cities was 28 percent as compared to 29 percent for the total urban population. Since that time, however, the total urban population has grown increasingly faster than the population of these cities, with a rate of 23 percent for the 257 cities as compared to an urb^n rate of 27 percent during the twenties, and rates of 4 percent and 8 percent, respectively, during the thirties. The new series provides a reliable measure of year-toyear fluctuations in urban residential construction during the decade including World War I; and for the period beginning with 1920, when the bias inherent in fixed samples begins to affect this series noticeably, estimates of new dwelling units provided in the entire nonfarm area are also available. (See table 10.) More new family-dwelling units were placed under construction in the 257 cities in 1941 than in any year since 1929. Although the 232,000 homes shown in table 5 for 1941 were over 11 times the number reported in the low year, 1934, they represented only about half the volume for each year from 1923 through 1926. The 1941 rate of construction was equivalent to somewhat less than 50 new homes for each 10,000 persons living in the 257 cities. Fluctuations in the index of residential rents were confined to a much narrower range than movements in the index of new dwelling units provided, but the cyclical patterns for both series were approxi mately the same. The Bureau of Labor Statistics index of rents was 106 in 1941, as contrasted with an average of 100 for 1935-39, inclusive. Supplementary surveys of rent changes in critical housing areas made by both the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Work Projects Administration indicate that increases in rents since the 12 BUILDING CONSTRUCTION, 1941 winter of 1940-41 have been much greater in certain areas near war plants or military and naval bases than in the cities included in the Bureau’s rent index.

Data were available for 118 cities for 1910 and for a progressively greater number of cities each successive year, reaching a total of 229 cities in 1920. Since that time, all 257 cities have reported directly to the Bureau. 3 Index of rents for wage earners and lower-salaried workers in large cities. See Bureau of Labor Statistics Bull.

Single-family houses formed a higher proportion of the new dwe1!ings in the 257 cities in 1941 than in any other year of active building shown in table 6. Units in both 2-family and multifamily buildings decreased both absolutely and relatively between 1940 and 1941, the proportion of units in multifamily buildings being lower in 1941 than in any of the previous 20 years except 1932 when there was little residential construction of any kind.

The average permit valuation tor each type of dwelling unit shown in table 8 increased between 1940 and 1941. Nevertheless, the 1941 averages were below those for the majority of the years in the previous two decades. In interpreting these averages it should be noted that they do not represent fluctuations in the cost of building identical units of housing, but show fluctuations in the estimated construction costs of those units for which permits were issued. The comparatively small increase in average permit valuations, in view of the increases in material and labor costs in 1941 previously noted, is partially ex plained by two factors. The Federal Government was building large numbers of low-cost homes for war workers, and had also issued an order in the early fall of 1941 which set a maximum selling price of $6,000 per dwelling unit as one condition for granting priorities assistance to private builders. 468 5 4 0° —42------ 2 16 BUILDING CONSTRUCTION, 1 9 4 1 T a b l e 8*— Perm it valuation per new dwelling unit in 257 identical cities, 1921 to 1941 [This table does not show change in cost of erecting identical buildings, but does show change in estimated costs of such buildings as were erected.

Estimated N ew D w ellin g U nits in N onfarm A reas In addition to publishing the number of dwelling units for which permits were issued in the sample of reporting cities, the Bureau uses the building-permit reports as the basis for estimating the number of new dwelling units in the entire nonfarm area of the United States. The Bureau’s estimates, which were started in 1936, are a continuation of the series established by the National Bureau of Economic Research, which also based its work on building-permit data. A special study of the preliminary results of the 1940 Census of Housing recently revealed that the true level of residential construction during the 1930’s had been understated in estimates published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics and National Bureau of Economic Re search.4 The 1930-39 estimates were accordingly revised, and the 1940 and 1941 estimates are consistent with the new level indicated for the previous years. All of these estimates, which are included in table 10 and the chart on page 18, are preliminary and will undergo further analysis when the complete data of the 1940 census become available. * See Housing and the Increase in Population, Monthly Labor Review, April 1942, p. 869. BUILDING CONSTRUCTION, 1 9 4 1 00 GENERAL trends in building construction 19 Estimates of residential construction presented here are intended to cover all such activity within the “ nonfarm area” (all urban and rural nonfarm places). The urban designation is applied to all incorporated places with 1940 population of 2,500 or greater, and also, by special rule, to a small number of unincorporated civil divisions. In the class of rural nonfarm construction is placed all activity for nonagricultural use in unincorporated areas and in incorporated places of less than 2,500 population. Thus, whereas urban construction actually corresponds to a definite area, rural nonfarm construction depends for its classification upon the intended use of the individual buildings. Since building permits are issued when construction work is about to start, estimates derived from permits represent future dwellingunit capacity of buildings upon which construction work was started in the period specified. No attempt is made here to estimate the number of family accommodations gained by alterations and con versions or those lost by demolitions. Trend in Residential Construction, 1920 to 1941 With 715,000 new dwelling units provided for nonfarm families, residential construction during 1941 continued its upward climb of the last 8 years. The 1941 total was more than twice the annual average of 300,000 units for the preceding decade, and was also slightly more than the 703,000 average for the decade of the 1920,s. The last year of greater activity was 1928, when new family accom modations totaled 753,000 units. From that point it dropped to 509,000 in 1929 and then fell to a depression low of 93,000 units in 1933.

Because the 1930-41 estimates are preliminary and derived by somewhat different techniques than the earlier estimates, caution should be exercised in comparing years in different sections of the series. See Housing and the Increase in Population, Monthly Labor Review, April 1942, p. 869. 2 Urban and rural nonfarm classifications for years 1920-29 are based on 1930 census, for years 1930-41, upon 1940 census. 3 Includes 1- and 2-family dwellings with stores. 4 Includes multifamily dwellings with stores. 20 BUILDING CONSTRUCTION, 1941 The recovery in residential construction is even more marked when 1-family dwellings alone are considered. Altogether, the construction of 613,000 new 1-family houses, or 86 percent of the new?nonfarm units, was begun in 1941, which represented an all-time high point. Two-family and apartment units declined from 1940 to 1941, and the output of these types in 1941 was less than one-third of the number provided in the most active years of the 1920's. Comparison by Type o f Dwelling, 1940 and 1941 The 715,000 new family-dwelling units upon which construction was started in nonfarm areas during 1941 represented an increase of 19 percent over the 603,000 total for the preceding year. The increase of 26 percent in the number of new 1-family homes from 1940 to 1941 was responsible for the gain in total residential construction, despite declines of 8 and 14 percent, respectively, in the number of 2-family and multifamily units shown in table 11. The 2-family and multifamily units included in the 1940 and 1941 estimates were, as usual, heavily concentrated in the larger cities. Forty-seven percent of all 2-family units and 70 percent of all multi family units in nonfarm areas were in cities of over 100,000 popula tion, although construction of units of all types in these cities ac counted for only 29 percent of the nonfarm totals for both years. Urban places of less than 100,000 population accounted for 34 per cent of the nonfarm totals for the 2 years and rural nonfarm areas for the remaining 37 percent. The recent census revealed a disproportionate growth in population of smaller cities and rural places as compared with large urban centers. When the trends in construction of new dwelling units are examined with reference to centers of population of different size, the related tendency towards dispersion of new housing is found to have con tinued through 1941. Of the new units provided during 1941, 39 per cent were in rural nonfarm areas as compared with 34 percent during 1940. No year previous to 1941 had as large a number of new rural nonfarm dwelling units.

Cities of over 25,000 population provided 5 percent more new units in 1941 than during the previous year, as compared with a 23-percent rise in the smaller urban places. These percentage changes were considerably affected by the location of Federally financed housing projects, which showed an even greater trend toward location in smaller cities and rural places than did privately financed housing. Geographic location had considerable influence upon the type of dwelling unit built (table 12). In the Middle Atlantic section, which had the highest number of new multifamily units in both 1940 and 1941, this type comprised 34 and 16 percent of the respective totals. This is to a great extent explained by the concentration of large cities in the Middle Atlantic area. The South Atlantic and Pacific States also had large numbers of multiple units, this classification accounting for 13 and 12 percent of the respective area totals for 1941. Privately financed apartment construction showed a loss more than large enough to account for the decrease in the United States multifamily totals. In New York City alone, applications filed for apartment units dropped from a total of 19,800 units in 1940 to 13,400 units in 1941.

Comparison by Source of Funds, l')40 and 1941 Projects financed with public funds during 1941 provided accommo dations for 95,740 families, or 13 percent of the nonfarm total, as compared with 73,029 units, or 10 percent of the total, during 1940. Included in publicly financed projects during 1940 and 1941 were 32,086 and 88,715 units, respectively, spe< fically designated for families of war workers and military personnel. Among the privately financed units, the ^-family group showed a gain of 11 percent from 1940 to 1941, and the multifamily group, 3 percent. In publicly financed projects, the number of 1-family units more than doubled, but the 2-family and apartment units in 1941 were only about half as great as in 1940. The number of publicly financed units in u 1 groups of cities with populations of 50,000 and over, shown in tabk 13, decreased between 22 BUILDING CONSTRUCTION, 1941 1940 and 1941. The large increases in smaller places and in rural non farm areas were due to the great number of war housing projects built around army camps, powder plants, and similar war establishments located in sparsely populated sections of the country where the new plant or camp virtually meant the creation of a new community. For privately financed units alone, cities of over 25,000 population experienced a 10-percent rise in new dwelling units as compared with a 13-percent increase for smaller urban places.

During 1941 publicly financed housing projects in this area were planned to accommodate 21,680 families, a small increase over the corresponding 19,233 units in 1940. The second largest concentration of publicly financed units in 1941, shown in table 14, was in the Middle Atlantic States where 19,519 units were under construction. In terms of privately financed construction alone, the East North Central and West South Central States showed the largest percentage gain in 1941 over 1940.

This amend ment allowed liberal insurance terms to builders who would provide low-cost housing in specific defense areas so designated by the Presi dent at the recommendation of the Defense Housing Coordinator. By the end of 1941 mortgages covering 42,000 homes had been accepted for insurance under title VI by the Federal Housing Administration. The greater part of F. H. A.-insured mortgages on new houses, however, was still carried under the provision of title II of the National Housing Act, with an additional small number under title I. Under these provisions, 183,000 new homes were accepted for insurance during 1941 as compared with 177,000 during 1940. The Federal Housing Administration estimates that of the new homes thus insured during 1941, 84 percent were located within war-production areas. The second quarter of 1941 saw more new housing begun than any other quarter of 1940 or 1941. Although the number of publicly financed units in this quarter was exceptionally large, reaching a total of 32,258, the number privately financed was still 25 percent above the comparable period of 1940 (table 15). From the high point in the second quarter of 1941 the number of privately financed units started showed but a small decrease of 4 percent in the third quarter. There was a sharp decline from the third to the fourth quarter, which is for the most part explained by the normal seasonal tendencies. In 1941 this seasonal decline was accentuated by the growing shortages of strategic materials, influencing some builders against starting new construction until governmental policy and the supply situation ‘became clarified. However, because of the much higher rate of building during 1941 as compared with 1940, even a 33-percent decline in private building from the previous quarter left the fourth quarter of 1941 at approximately the same level as the cor responding period of 1940.

Demountable units have been included in the totals presented but portable units and trailers were omitted. During 1941, 766 portable dwelling units were provided in defense areas by the Farm Security Administration with funds provided under Public Act No. 9, 77th Congress. Under the terms of the same law, the Farm Security Administration in 1941 provided 4,859 trailer units and dormitories to accommodate 7,390 persons. Dormitories under construction by other agencies were to house an additional group of 1,752 persons. Estimated Permit Valuations The permit valuation of the 715,000 new units upon which con struction was started in nonfarm areas during 1941 is estimated at $2,502,818,000. This included $2,180,805,000 for privately financed units and $322,013,000 for those in public projects. Of the total valua tion, $2,219,094,000 (89 percent) was for 1-family dwellings, $86,526,000 (3 percent) for 2-family houses, and $197,198,000 (8 percent) for apartments. During 1940 the 603,000 new nonfarm units had an estimated permit valuation of $2,021,363,000, of which $227,289,000 was for public projects. Because of the nature of the cost estimates given by builders when they apply for permits, these permit valuations commonly understate actual costs. The Bureau of Labor Statistics has been studying the degree of this understatement and has released preliminary results of this study, which indicate that costs of 1-family houses average 15.5 percent more than the valuations entered on the permit records. Further results of this study may modify this conclusion and may also show a somewhat different relationship between costs and permit valuation of 2-family and apartment buildings. In the absence of more complete data, permit valuations of privately financed residential con struction, shown in table 16, should be increased 15.5 percent to yield estimated construction costs. Contract awards for projects publicly financed are reported directly to the Bureau. Since the latter approximate construction costs, no adjustment of public totals is necessary. With those considerations in mind, construction of the 715,000 new units in 1941 and of the 603,000 in 1940 may be said to involve expenditures of approximately $2,840,000,000 and $2,300,000,000, respectively.

Data in tables 17 to 26, inclusive, are based on information received from 2,449 identical cities with populations of 1.000 persons or more which reported to the Bureau in both 1940 and 1941. Reports were received from all cities with a population of 50.000 or more; the completeness of the coverage for the remaining cities decreases directly with the size of the city. The number of reporting cities and their total populations are dis tributed geographically and by size of city, on the basis of the 1940 census, as follows: Cities reporting A ll d iv is io n s , r N ow E n g la n d N um ber _ _ _ ___ South Atlantic................. ................

The 1941 figures represented increases of 8.1 and 13.5 percent, respectively, over the 1940 volume. Valuations for both Federal and non-Federal building construction increased during 1941, but the greater gains were in the Federal war building program. Federal contract values thus formed 27 percent of total permit valuations in 1941, as contrasted with 24 percent in the previous year. Since permit valuations commonly understate the actual construction cost, the comparison with Federal contract values somewhat overemphasizes the relative importance of Federal building in these cities. Permit valuations for new residential construction increased 12.5 percent between 1940 and 1941, and accounted for approximately half of the permit valuations in both years. As can be seen from table 17, single-family dwellings were by far the most important type of residential construction and were responsible for most of the increase in new residential construction between 1940 and 1941. Permit valuation of units in 2-family houses and in flats and other multi family buildings decreased during 1941. In addition to family housekeeping units, the figures for residential construction include hotels, lodging houses, and such miscellaneous living quarters as dormitories and clubs. Hotels formed the only category of nonhousekeeping residential buildings for which permit construction in 1 9 4 0 27 and 1 9 4 1 valuations increased in 1941, and the permit issued for the new Statler Hotel in Washington, D. C., contributed materially to this rise.

The effect of the Federal war construction program was more pronounced in the figures for nonresidential than for residential construction, accounting for over half of the nonresidential permit valuations in 1941. The major gains in 1941 were in permit valuations for new factory buildings and for public works and utilities, both of which were heavily weighted with Federal contracts. Although the number of public buildings reported in 1941 was 25 percent greater than in 1940, there was a slight decline in valuations. One factor contributing to this decrease was the inclusion of large contracts for troop housing in 1940. Several types of buildings on which Federal construction has little or no effect had lower valuations in 1941 than in 1940. This group included amusement buildings, service stations, institutional buildings, office buildings (other than Federal), and schools and libraries. 28 BUILDING CONSTRUCTION, 1 9 4 1 Permit valuations for additions, alterations, and repairs increased 9 percent between 1940 and 1941, which was less than the gain reported for either class of new construction shown in table 17. Work on nonresidential buildings accounted for almost three-fifths of the repairs and alterations in both years. In the reporting cities privately financed housing showed greater increases between 1940 and 1941 than public housing, measured either in number of units or permit valuations. This was contrary to the relationship shown on page 22 for the rural nonfarm area as a whole, and is explained by the location of large public war housing projects either outside the corporate limits of the reporting cities or in areas which did not report to the Bureau. For the privately financed homes shown in table 18, a 9-percent increase in the number of units was accompanied by a 13-percent rise in permit valuations, while for the publicly financed units the corresponding gains were 1 and 11 percent. U. S. H. A. slum-clearance projects accounted for the bulk of the public units in 1940. Most of these projects were located in large cities where the apartment type of building predominated. The effect of the shift to war-housing projects in 1941 is reflected in the 50-percent increase in single-family units at the same time that the number of units in other types of buildings decreased 46 percent.

Comparison by Geographic Division In all sections of the country except the West North Central States, permit valuations increased between 1940 and 1941. The decrease in this one area resulted from the sharp drop in Federal contracts for nonresidential construction from almost $31,000,000 in 1940 to less than $3,000,000 in 1941. Increases in permit valuations in other areas shown in table 19 ranged from 7 percent in the Middle Atlantic States to 72 percent in the Mountain States. The influence of Federal contracts on the relative showing of the latter area is clear from table 20, which shows that Federal contracts for new nonresidential buildings. CONSTRUCTION IN 1940 AND 29 1941 in the Mountain States were over 10 times as large in 1941 as in the previous year. Most of this increase was in Denver and Salt Lake City. For the reporting cities as a whole the volume of new nonresidential construction, as measured by permit valuations, was about equally divided between Federal and non-Federal projects in 1941. For new residential construction, however, there was over six times as much non-Federal construction as Federal. Increases in non-Federal hous ing were reported in all sections of the country except the Middle Atlantic States. Substantial gains in several cities in this area were offset by losses in New York City.

In the Middle Atlantic and Mountain States there were small de creases in the number of new dwelling units for which permits were issued in 1941 as compared with 1940. In the remaining seven re gions shown in table 22, the gains ranged from 1 percent in the West South Central States to 26 percent in New England. Privately financed units in New England increased 9 percent, but the major part of the improvement in this area resulted from public projects necessitated by the influx of war workers into New England. On the other hand, the small increases in the East and West South Central States resulted from a greater volume of privately financed housing since there was a substantial decline in the number of units in public projects.

Per capita valuations for new residential construction were almost twice as great in cities of 5,000 to 10,000 population as in cities with more than half a million people where there was the lowest volume of such con struction.

From the ratios shown below it can be seen that while the differences among the eight popula tion groups were greater in 1941 than in 1940, in both years there was the same tendency for more new units to be built in smaller places than in the large cities.

The value of all contracts awarded or force-account work started by the Federal Government for construction projects in 1940 and 1941 is shown in table 26. This tabulation covers Federal construction both inside and outside the continental United States. The total volume of Federal construction started in 1941 was less than 5 percent higher than in 1940, but there were marked shifts in the amounts reported for the different types of projects shown in table 27. Contracts awarded by the Maritime Commission for cargo vessels increased sharply. Offsetting this was a large reduction in contracts for naval vessels, so that the total for ship construction and repairs in 1941 was far below the 1940 figure. Decreases occurred in electrification and hydroelectric-power projects and in forestry and reclamation projects. There were substantial increases in all other types of projects in this table, the largest gains being for airports and building construction. Although Federal building projects in the reporting cities increased between 1940 and 1941, much greater increases occurred outside the reporting cities; Federally financed buildings inside the reporting cities formed only about one-fourth of the total in 1941 as contrasted with more than two-fifths of the 1940 total.

Nearly 98 percent of the valuations on Federal construction con tracts awarded in 1941 were for projects to be financed with regular Federal appropriations. The remainder was to be financed from funds appropriated for Public Works Administration and Work Projects Administration projects, which in 1934 and 1935 had ac counted for approximately 80 to 90 percent of the value of all Federal construction. In addition to construction undertaken by Federal agencies with W. P. A. funds, which is included in table 27, the Work Projects Administration operated other construction projects in cooperation with State and local governments. The volume of such construction decreased between 1940 and 1941. Larger amounts were reported for construction of airports, but decreases occurred in all other types of projects shown in table 28.

The value of awards for public buildings financed wholly by State governments was nearly 40 percent less in 1941 than in the previous year. The five sections of the country with the largest volume in 1940 all had substantial reductions in 1941. Comparatively small increases were reported in the remaining geographic divisions included in table 29. Highway construction is a much more important factor in State construction activities than public buildings, and there was a 2-percent increase in awards for highways during 1941. The gains were con fined to six of the nine geographic regions, however, with losses reported by the New England, East North Central, and South Atlantic States.
