It is interesting to note that for the first time this year
did any region show an increase in gross earnings in comparison with
the corresponding month in 1945.
The Pocahontas region came up
with an increase-in gross earnings of 0.89%, and among the others,
the region coming the closest to its July, 1945 gross-earnings was
the Great Lakes region with a decrease of 4.67%.
The other regions
fell between this percentage and the largest drop of 26.95% compiled
by the Central Western region* la net earnings the. picture once
agaia shows only decreases.
The least decrease was recorded by the
Pocahontas region, one of 3.11%.
Next, but quite a bit off the pace,
came the Great Lakes region with a decrease of 30.19%.
The largest
decrease of 61.17% was shown by the New England region with all
other regions falling in between the two extremes. V This geographical
