Accordingly, in the above the last day of the week in all cases has to be estimated. In the elaborate detailed statement, however, which we present further below we are able to give the final and complete results for the week previous—the week ended July 24. For that week there was an increase of 24.3%, the aggregate of clearings for the whole country having amounted to $8,480,244,779, against $6,821,250,198 in the same week in 1942. Outside of this city there was an increase of 21.2%, the bank clearings at this centre having recorded a gain of 27.6%. We group the cities according to the Federal Reserve Districts in which they are located and from this it appears that in the New York District (including this city) the totals show a gain of 27.5% in the Boston Reserve District of 10.9% and in the Philadelphia Re¬ serve District of 17.8%. In the Cleveland and Richmond Reserve District there is an increase of 17.2% and in the Atlanta Reserve District of 24.4%.

Through the month of June NWA planes, their loads swelled by new needs for swift correspondence between war centers from Chicago to the Pacific Northwest, flew a total of 278,650,825 pound-miles. The new record exceeds the total of airmail pounds in June, 1942, by more than 166,000, and the pound-miles total is more than 90,000,000 over the same month a year ago. Spotlighting the increase in service of air transportation to the war effort of the nation, NWA planes carried a total of 7,990 passengers, mostly on war business, during the month of June, Mr. Hunter stated. The new figure, he said, shows an increase of 783 passengers over the total for the previous month, and: an increase of more than 1,200 over the total transported by NWA planes during June, 1942. The planes flew an estimated 5,197,590 passenger miles during the month. Northwest Airlines planes, loaded with materials for war industries in centers between Chicago and the Northwest, carried a total of 102,081 pounds of air express during the month of June, Mr. Hunter added.
