Foreword
I

T H E Statistical Supplement to the FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK REVIEW is de-

signed to bring together in a convenient form the more important statistical series
relating to the operations of the Federal Home Loan Bank System and of its members;
and to provide pertinent reference material bearing on the accumulation of savings by
individuals and on home financing and home building activities.
This year's edition of the Supplement has been revised so that as far as possible
each series will include information for as long a period as the data are available. The
majority of Bank System operations, for example, are shown at least annually from
1933 to the present. Other series begin with 1920 if information is available for the
full period. Thefiguresshown include all revisions made up to the time the Supplement
went to press. Wherever preliminary data are used, this fact is so indicated. All
indexes are shown on a base of 1935-1939=100 to facilitate comparisons.
The presentation of this Supplement would not have been possible without the
full cooperation of the Operating Analysis Division, Federal Savings and Loan
Insurance Corporation; the Stenographic Section, Federal Home Loan Bank Administration; the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U. S. Department of Labor; the Office of Housing
Economics, National Housing Agency; the Division of Research and Statistics, Federal
Housing Administration; and the Loan Guaranty Division, Veterans Administration.
The contribution of each of these units is sincerely appreciated.
Explanatory notes on pages 29-32 give a description of the source, coverage,
method of computation, and application of the statistical series included on the following pages.
MAY 1947.

FHLB ASSETS AND LIABILITIES: Compiled by the Bank
Operations Section, FHLB A, from reports of the 11 FHL
Banks. For comparative purposes, advances outstanding
from the end of 1934 through 1937 have been adjusted for
prepayments not actually credited on the dates indicated.
Investments in Government securities are shown at par
instead of book value. The table presents selected
combined balance sheet items at the end of each year from
1933 through 1946. A breakdown of the assets of the
individual Banks is shown as of December 31,1946. (See
REVIEW, Table 12.)

FHLB ADVANCES: Compiled by the Bank Operations
Section. The ability of the FHLB System to serve as
a credit reservoir for its member institutions is best
demonstrated by the volume of FHL Bank advances.
Table 2 shows, by months, the amount of new advances
made, repayments on old balances adjusted to include
prepayments, and adjusted balances of advances outstanding at the end of each year from 1933-1936. (See

FLOW OF SAVINGS IN SAVINGS AND LOAN ASSOCIATIONS: Compiled by the Operating Analysis Division.
Estimates based upon monthly reports of cooperating
savings and loan associations. Approximately 3,000 Federal and state-chartered members and nonmember associations, whose combined assets represent about 83 percent
of the total assets of all savings and loan associations^ are
included in the sample upon which these estimates are
based. Table 8 shows new private investments, withdrawals, and net inflow of savings for associations grouped
by member, insured, and uninsured institutions as well as
for all savings and loan associations. (All except four of
the insured associations are FHLB members.) The
withdrawal ratio is derived by expressing the amount of
withdrawals for the month or year as a percent of new
investments. The ratio may exceed 100 percent if there
is a net decline in savings for the period. Figures will
not necessarily add to totals because of rounding; ratios
computed before rounding. (See REVIEW, Table 14.)

REVIEW, Table 12.)

Pages 4 and 5

FHLB MEMBERS: Compiled by the Operating Analysis
Division, from interim reports submitted by Bank System
members. Asset figures in 1946 for Tables 3 and 4 are from
tabulations made shortly after the end of the year. Since
these were based on latest data available, asset figures
will be revised to agree with totals compiled later from
regular annual reports.
Table S presents 1946 year-end data, by type of member
institution, by District and by state. Table 4 shows the
progress of FHLB membership from 1933 through 1946.
(Current data are published quarterly in the REVIEW,
beginning with March.) Table 5 presents selected balance
sheet data for all reporting savings and loan members
from 1936-1945. Figures are obtained from the annual
reports submitted.
Pages 6 and 7

INSURED ASSOCIATIONS: Compiled by the Operating
Analysis Division, from the monthly reports of all institutions insured by the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance
Corporation. The selected balance sheet items presented
are as of the end of the reporting period.

(See REVIEW,

Table 13.)
ALL OPERATING SAVINGS AND LOAN ASSOCIATIONS: Compiled by the Operating Analysis Division.
Table 7 presents selected statistics for all operating savings
and loan associations for the period from 1922-1946.
These data are compiled from the annual reports of FHLB
member associations and of state savings and loan supervisory authorities. Resources of institutions in liquidation
are not included in these figures. Data for 1946 are preliminary estimates.




SAVINGS IN SELECTED MEDIA: Compiled by the Operating Analysis Division. Data are confined to savings of
individuals in selected media for the accumulation of longterm funds, and do not purport to cover the entire field of
savings. Figures for savings and loan associations include
the private share investments, excluding pledged shares.
The equity of policyholders in life insurance companies is
based on the estimated reserves, unpaid dividends, dividends left to accumulate and surplus to policyholders, less
premium notes, policy loans and net deferred and unpaid
premiums. Source: The Spectator, Chilton Company,
Inc., Philadelphia, Pa. Deposit information about mutual
savings banks was obtained from reports of the Comptroller of the Currency and the National Association of
Mutual Savings Banks. Data for commercial banks include only savings in insured banks evidenced by passbooks. Figures for 1942 through 1946 are estimated by
the FHLB A from total time deposit figures obtained from
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Postal savings
totals are reported by the Post Office Department and include outstanding principal and accrued interest on certificates of deposit, outstanding savings stamps and unclaimed deposits. Data for postal savings bonds exclude
such bonds held by the Postal Savings System. U. S.
Savings bonds figures represent current redemption value
of war savings securities issued from 1920-1928, Series
A-D bonds issued from 1935-May 1941; since May 1941,
Series E war bonds. The source for these data is the
Treasury Daily Statement.
SAVINGS FACTORS IN THE NATIONAL ECONOMY:
Compiled by the Department of Commerce. This table
shows the sources of income payments to individuals and
also the disposition of this income as between taxes, ex-

29

penditures and the amount available for savings. The
totals of income payments to individuals differ from the
series on national income in that they exclude income
accruing to individuals but not received by them (undistributed profits and contributions to social insurance
funds), and include transfer payments which are not rewards for current economic services. The income payments series is significant for measuring the dollar purchasing power of individuals inasmuch as when personal taxes
are deducted this series provides the total of the dollars
available for expenditures and savings. (See explanatory
notes for Page 28 on the index of income payments to
individuals.)
Pages 1 0 , 1 1 , 12 and 13

SAVINGS AND LOAN LENDING: Compiled by the
Operating Analysis Division, from monthly reports of cooperating savings and loan associations. Approximately
3,000 Federal, state-chartered member and nonmember
associations, whose combined assets represent about 83
percent of the total assets of all savings and loan associations, are included in the sample upon which these
estimates are based.
Table 11 shows a breakdown of total new mortgage
loans made, by purpose of loan, and classified by Federal,
insured, member and nonmember associations as well as
the combined total for all savings and loan associations.
There is some over-lapping in classifications, as all Federal
associations are insured and all "but four insured associations are FHLB members.
Table 12 provides a geographical breakdown of lending
activity showing the volume of new loans for all savings
and loan associations, by purpose of loan, in each FHLB
District from 1936 through 1946. (See REVIEW, Tables
6 and 7.)
Table 13 gives state-by-state as well as Bank District
totals of mortgage lending but is limited to the activity
of all insured savings and loan associations, for the years
from 1942 through 1946.
Page 14

NONFARM HOME MORTGAGE DEBT: Compiled by
Operating Analysis Division. Estimates based on studies
and reported statistics of various types of mortgage
lending institutions. Data are confined to loans on 1to 4-family homes and do not include mortgage loans on
farm or commercial properties. The category "individuals
and others" includes fiduciaries, real estate and bond
companies, title and mortgage companies, philanthropic
and educational institutions, fraternal organizations,
construction companies, RFC Mortgage Company and
others.
Data obtained from a variety of sources, including:
(1) estimates for all operating savings and loan associations, prepared by Operating Analysis Division; (2)
mortgage and real estate investments of life insurance
companies from special reports submitted to the Operating
Analysis Division by companies holding 95 percent of the
assets of all legal reserve life insurance companies; (3) the
nonfarm mortgage recording series prepared by the Operating Analysis Division; (4) financial statements of the
HOLC; (5) combined balance sheets for all active com-

30




mercial and mutual savings banks prepared by the Comptroller of Currency; (6) Census of Housing, 1940, prepared
by the Bureau of the Census; (7) reports of the Federal
Housing Administration; and other miscellaneous financial
data.
Table 14 also shows estimates of the total amount of
new mortgage loans made by the various lenders during
each year, as well as the amount of outstanding debt held.
REAL ESTATE OVERHANG: Compiled by the Operating
Analysis Division. Table 15 indicates the amount of residential real estate owned by the various types of mortgage
financing institutions, and is prepared from approximately
the same sources as used in the home mortgage debt series
above. The estimates do not include properties owned
for investment purposes.
NONFARM REAL ESTATE FORECLOSURES: Compiled by the Operating Analysis Division. The statistics
in Table 16 represent the estimated number of foreclosures
in the United States in all nonfarm areas. They are
based on data reported monthly from approximately 1,500
counties, cities, townships, or other governmental divisions,
and measure the number of properties acquired monthly
through foreclosure proceedings. Approximately 65 percent of all nonfarm dwellings are included in the sample
used. (Current data are published quarterly in the
REVIEW.)
Pases 15, 18, 19, 20 and 21

NONFARM MORTGAGE RECORDINGS: Compiled by
the Operating Analysis Division, from monthly reports
prepared by cooperating institutions. The coverage on
which final estimates are based includes approximately 500
areas containing about three-fifths of the total nonfarm
population. To relate these data as closely as possible to
home financing operations, only mortgages of $20,000 or
less are counted. It should be noted, however, that the
totals do include mortgages on other than residential
properties.
Since almost every mortgage is recorded, the series
provides an adequate means of determining the role being
played by various types of lenders. Summaries are made
on the basis of the originating mortgagees, and for this
reason assignments of mortgages are not reflected in the
series. To the extent that certain lenders (e. g., insurance
companies) purchase mortgages originated and recorded
by other lenders (e. g., mortgage companies), the recording
statistics may overstate or understate the importance of a
particular type of lender as the ultimate source of mortgage credit. It should also be pointed out that mortgage
recording data are not directly comparable with estimates
on home mortgage lending presented in Tables 11, i&, 18,
and 14. The periods covered are not necessarily the same.
Lending statistics are reported as of the date of loan commitment, while recording figures reflect the actual date of
mortgage registrations. Further, alterations in the terms
of an existing contract may necessitate a new registration.
In the case of refinancing an institution's own mortgage,
for example, the face amount of the instrument would
appear in the recording totals, whereas only that portion
which represented an increase of funds loaned would be
included in the lending figures.

Tables 17 and 18 show, respectively, the estimated
number and amount of mortgages recorded throughout
the United States by each type of lender from 1939
through 1946. These tables also show the relationship of
the business done by each type of mortgagee to the total
volume of business for any given period. (See REVIEW,
Table 9.)
Table 19 provides a detailed summary of the annual
recordings made by each type of mortgagee during 1941,
1944, 1945 and 1946 by Federal Home Loan Bank District
and by state. The percentage figures relate to the share
of the total mortgage recording business accounted for by
each type of lender in a given area. (See REVIEW,
Table 8.)
Pases 22 and 23

RESIDENTIAL CONSTRUCTION: Compiled by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Data are taken from reports on
building permits issued for private construction received
from approximately 4,500 cities, towns, and minor civil
divisions. Statistics on public construction are based on
contracts awarded. (Note: these permit figures should
not be confused with the Federal permit system inaugurated in December 1946 to replace the priorities rating
structure. Such permits are issued by regional FHA
offices.)
Table 20 presents the number of new dwelling units provided in all nonfarm and urban areas by years from 1920
to 1942, and by months and years for the period from 1943
to 1946. Estimates for years prior to 1930 were made by
the National Bureau of Economic Research.
To bring residential construction statistics closer to the
actual operations of savings and loan associations, Table 21
provides state and Bank District totals on the number of
new residential units in all nonfarm areas of the United
States. Private construction for 1946 is further broken
down to show the number of 1- and 2-family dwellings—
the type accepted as security for the majority of mortgage
loans made by these institutions. (See REVIEW, Tables
1 and 2.)
Pa3e 24

FHA ACTIVITY: Compiled by the Research and Statisitcs
Divisiony FHA. The tables on this page summarize the
operations of the Federal Housing Administration in the
field of home mortgage finance since its creation in 1934.
Table 22 shows the yearly volume of mortgages insured by
the FHA from 1935 to the present, with adjustments for
insurance terminated and the amount of original principal
amortized to arrive at the estimated net insurance outstanding. Table 23 presents the monthly volume of loans
which became premium paying (i. e., actually in effect)
from 1935 through 1946. The various Titles indicate the
part of the National Housing Act under which they were
processed. Not all Titles have been in effect during the
entire period. All data are for mortgages on 1- to 4-family
houses. Figures represent the gross insurance written
during the period and do not take account of principal
repayments on previously insured loans. Totals may not
necessarily add because of rounding. (See REVIEW, Table
11.) Table 24 shows the amount of insured mortgage




holdings of the various types of mortgagees; however, the
totals are based on the original face amount of the instruments and therefore do not take amoritization into account. Figures do not include terminated mortgages nor
cases in transit to or being audited by the FHA. Only
mortgages on 1- to 4-family homes under Titles II and
VI are counted. The Federal agency classification includes the RFC Mortgage Company, Federal National
Mortgage Association and the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation

Gl HOME LOANS: Compiled by the Loan Guaranty Division, Veterans Administration.
Table 25 shows a geographical breakdown of home loans approved for insurance or
guaranty under the Servicemen's Readjustment Act
through December 25, 1946. Totals are compiled from
local office reports, and in some instances the territory
served by a local office overlaps state boundary lines.
For this reason, the state totals can only be considered
approximate. Table 26 indicates the cumulative record of
activity in GI home loans from Jvme 1945 through the end
of 1946. Weekly reports of the Veterans Administration
were later replaced by reports issued as of the 25th of each
month.

(See REVIEW, Table 10.)
Pages 26 and 27

SMALL-HOUSE BUILDING COST INDEX: Compiled by
Statstics and Analysis Branch, Office of the Administrator,
NHA.
This index is designed to measure the changes in
the cost of constructing a standard frame house and to
provide a basis for studying the trend of costs within an
individual community or in different cities. The index
reflects price changes in the more important material items
used in small-home construction and in wage variations
in the major housebuilding trades. It does not attempt
to evaluate some important factors which influence cost
trends, such as variations in labor efficiency, changing
building practices and the introduction of new materials,
tools and techniques. Nor does the index reflect the hid
den increases in costs occasioned by the shortage of build
ing materials which had the effect of lengthening the time
required to complete a house. Contractors in many instances during the months preceding the end of price control purchased some of the scarcer building items on the
black, market, or at distant points involving increased
shipping costs. It was impossible to get an estimate of
the extent of this practice or of its effects on building costs.
There is reason to believe that with the elimination of
price controls the index will show a sharp rise in the early
part of 1947. This rise would consist not only of actual
increases during this period but the de facto increases that
took place in the latter half of 1946 though not reflected
in the legal prices prevailing then.
Current material prices are furnished by the Bureau of
Labor Statistics, based on information from a group of
dealers in each city who report on prices delivered to job
site, in average quantities, for private residential construction. Since 1942 some of the regular material items have
not been available. In these cases substitute items were
priced and appropriate adjustments made in the calcula-

31

tions. As materials of original specification return to the
market, they are reintroduced into the series.
Labor costs are based on average hourly earnings for the
various building trades engaged in residential construction,
and include overtime or bonus pay on a prorated basis.
Depending upon the prevailing practice in the community,
union or non-union rates are used.
The individual cities are reported once each quarter in
the REVIEW. Cities in the Boston, Winston-Salem, Chicago
and Topeka Federal Home Loan Bank Districts appear in
January, April, July and October; those in the New York,
Indianapolis, Des Moines and San Francisco Districts, in
February, May, August and November; and those in the
Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, and Little Rock regions in March,
June, September and December. (See RE VIE W^ Table 5.)
TABLE OF INDEXES: All indexes have been placed on a
comparable basis of 1935-1939=100; all conversions
prepared by the Operating Analysis Division, FSLIC.
Current data for most of the following indexes may be
found in the Monthly Survey Section of the REVIEW.
HOME BUILDING: Compiled by the Operating Analysis
Division. The index is based on the Bureau of Labor
Statistics series of building permits for privately financed
1- and 2-famiiy units in all nonfarm areas of the United
States. The index is adjusted for seasonal fluctuations
and reveals essential movements in the volume of home
building of the type most usually financed by institutions
of the savings and loan types. Basic figures appear in
Table 20. (See explanatory notes for Page 22.)
NONFARM FORECLOSURES: Compiled by the Operating
Analysis Division. This index, adjusted for seasonal variations, is based on the data appearing in Table 16, which
shows the number of nonfarm foreclosures. (See explanatory notes for Page 14.)
SAVINGS AND LOAN MORTGAGE LENDING: Compiled by the Operating Analysis Division. The index is
adjusted for seasonal variations. Basic data for the index
appear in Tables 11 and 12. (See explanatory notes for
Pages 10-13.)
WHOLESALE PRICES FOR BUILDING MATERIALS: Compiled by the Bureau of Labor Statistics on an original base
of 1926=100. The index is one of the 10 major classifications included in the monthly price series based on
about 850 commodities, prepared by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics. The composite building material index does
not pertain strictly to home building but provides the
best available guide to the fluctuations in wholesale prices
of materials which loom large in the construction of residential structures. The BLS wholesale price data, for the
most part, represent prices in primary markets. (See
REVIEW, Table 3.)

22




WHOLESALE PRICES FOR LUMBER: Compiled by the
Bureau of Labor Statistics, on an original base of 1926= 100.
This index is one of the components of the wholesale price
index for all building materials. In all, about 45 different
lumber items are included. Because of the important
bearing of the lumber factor on the total cost of the typical
single-family home, price fluctuations shown in this series
are of particular significance to home financing institutions.
(See REVIEW, Table 3.)

INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION: Compiled by the Division of
Research and Statistics, Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System. The index is an over-all measure of
change in the physical volume of production of manufactures and minerals; it does not cover other types of goods
and services nor reflect changes in prices. It is derived
from 100 individual series—16 groups of manufacturing
industries and two groups of mining industries.
MANUFACTURING EMPLOYMENT: Compiled by the
Bureau of Labor Statistics, on an original basis of 1939= 100.
The index is adjusted for seasonal variations by the
Operating Analysis Division, FSLIC.
INCOME PAYMENTS TO INDIVIDUALS: Compiled by
the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce, U. S. Department of Commerce and adjusted for seasonal variations.
This index is based on estimates of income received by
individuals from salaries and wages; dividends and interest; direct or other relief payments; social security
benefits; payments to veterans; and other labor income,
entrepreneurial income, net rents and royalties. The index is useful primarily in indicating the dollar volume of
income payments. Because it does not reflect changes
in the basic price levels, this index does not provide a
measure of the purchasing power of a given income.
(See explanatory notes for Page 9, on savings factors in
the national economy.)
CONSUMER PRICES: Compiled by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics. This index reflects changes in the cost of goods
and services purchased by moderate income families in
large cities. Food prices are collected in 56 cities, and
data on rentals and prices of clothing, house furnishings,
and miscellaneous goods and services are obtained in 34
cities. It was formerly called the "cost-of-living" index.
BUILDING COSTS FOR THE STANDARD HOUSE: Compiled by Statistics and Analysis Branch, Office of the Administrator, NHA. This is the combined index for all
cities included in Table 27, and is based on a three months'
moving average of the costs for the individual cities.
(See explanatory notes for Pages 26 and 27.) The index
for total costs is shown as well as indexes for both the
materials and labor components. (See REVIEW, Tables
4 and 5.)
