Table 1.-Estimated Number of Wage Earners in Manufacturing Industries l/ - Cont'd
l/
Estimates for the major industry groups (titles of which have been capitalized),
have been adjusted to final data for 1941 and preliminary data for the second
quarter of 1942 made available by the Bureau of Employment Security of the
Federal Security Agency, and are not comparable v\rith data in mimeographed
releases for-m'onths prior to January 1943 and in issues of the Monthly Labor
Review prior-to March 1943. Comparable series for earlier months are available
upon request. Estimates for individual industries have been adjusted to levels
indicated by the 1939 Census of Manufactures, but not to Federal Security
Agency data. For this reason, together with the fact that this Bureau has not
prepared estimates for certain industries, and does not publish wage earners
in war industries, the sum. of the,individual industry estimates will not agree
with totals shown for the major industry groups.
2/
Unpublished information concerning the following war industries may be obtained
by authorized' agencies upon request: Aircraft engines; aircraft and parts,
excluding engines; alloying; aluminum manufactures; ammunition, cars, electricand steam-railroad; communication equipment; electrical equipment; engines and
turbines; explosives and safety fuses; fire extinguishers; firearms; fireworks;
locomotives; optical instruments and ophthalmic goods; professional and
scientific instruments and fire control equipment; radios and phonographs; and
shipbuilding.
3/ Comparable data for earlier months available upon request.
4/
Revisions have been made as follows in the data published for earlier months:
Marble, granite, slate, and other products - July, August, and September 1943
wage earners to 12.6, 12.9, and 12.6.
