of

D epartment of C ommerce,
F oreign and D omestic C ommerce,
Washington, J u ly 2 1 , 192 7 .

S i r : I have the honor to submit herewith for publication the
forty-ninth annual issue of the Statistical Abstract of the United
States. A s in previous years, this publication has been prepared in
the Division of Statistical Research, of which E . Dana Durand is
chief and Lawrence B . Mann assistant chief. It represents, how­
ever, a digest of data collected by all statistical agencies of the
National Government, as well as those of a considerable number of
private agencies and one or two States. M any of these offices and
agencies have been of great assistance in furnishing advance data
and also in the actual preparation of the tables used in the Abstract.
Special mention in this connection is due the following offices of the
Federal Government: The Bureau of the Census, the Bureau of Fish­
eries, and the Bureau of Mines of the Department of Commerce; the
Bureau of Agricultural Economics and the Weather Bureau of the
Department of Agriculture; the Bureau of Immigration and the
Bureau of Labor Statistics of the Department of Labor; the Bureau
of Education of the Department of the Interior ; the Federal Board
for Vocational Education; the Statistical Division of the Income Tax
Unit, Treasury Department; the Veterans’ Bureau; the Interstate
Commerce Commission; the United States Shipping Board; and the
Division of Analysis and Research of the Federal Reserve Board.
Valuable aid has also been given by the Bureau of Railway Eco­
nomics, Washington; the New York Produce Exchange; the Spec­
tator C o., New Y o rk ; D u n ’s Review, New York ; and the Bureau of
Canals, State of New York.
Very few important changes in the scope or form of the Abstract
appear this year. Owing to the publication by the department, for
the first time, of the Commerce Yearbook for Foreign Countries,
tables dealing with foreign statistics are, for the most part, omitted.
Respectfully,

Julius K lein ,
Director o f Bureau.

To Hon. H erbert H oover,
Secretary o f Commerce.

POPULATION-----DENSITY BY STATES
No. 1 2 — DENSITY OF POPULATION PER SQUARE MILE, BY STATES

[N ote .—In com puting density for the United States the areas and population of Alaska, Hawaii, and Porto
R ico at all censuses are not considered. T he population o f continental United States has been divided
b y the total land area, although it included at each census some unorganized territory w hich was not
canvassed b y the enumerators. For each State or Territory the population as returned at a given census
has been divided b y the land area in square miles of the State or Territory as constituted at the tim e that
census was taken. T he areas of Indian reservations, outside of Indian Territory, are included in the
areas of the several States and Territories, although the population was not ascertained and can not be
considered in figuring density of population prior to 1890. The census of 1870 in the Southern States is
considered incomplete. Population density in 1920 of Alaska, Hawaii, and Porto Rico, based on gross
area, and not land area, was as follows: Alaska, 0.1; Hawaii, 39.7; Porto R ico, 378.4]1

N ote.—Owing to change in the date of enumeration from A pril to January and to changes in the wording

of the instructions, the number of persons, especially wom en and children, reported as farm laborers
was m uch less in 1920 than w ould have been the case if the 1910 method had been followed. T he incom ­
parability in this large occupation affects materially the figures for the agricultural group as a whole
and even the aggregate for all occupations com bined. For discussion, see Census of 1920, Vol. IV , pp.
12 to 14. A ll data in Tables 41 to 45 relate to Continental United States]

DEAF-MUTE POPULATION

[General N ote .—T he figures contained in this section can not be taken as an absolute index of conditions.

The provisions for the care of these classes are so divergent in different States, and in the same State at
different times, that the enumeration of persons in certain institutions may be far from reflecting the
true differences or changes in the relative num ber of such persons in the population at large. M oreover,
the methods of enumeration have been changed from tim e to time. T he difficulty o f formulating an
adequate definition, the large element of personal judgm ent of the enumerator, and reluctance on the part
of individuals to adm it defects, all affect the accuracy of the data]

tration throughout the period com pared. T h e rates for the registration States o f 1900 are based on the
population as enumerated January 1, 1920, and the estimated m idyear population of 1903, 1913, 1924,
and 1925; the rates for the registration States of 1920 are based on the m idyear estimates. For definition
of crude and adjusted rates see note to Table 78]

disability due to war service is paid automatically under various
laws, but in a large majority of death and permanent total-disability cases, additional compensation is
paid to those participating in the Government life-insurance system. Term insurance is a tempo­
rary form of insurance designed to cover war hazards and must be converted into permanent Govern
ment life insurance before July 2, 1927. Converted life insurance is permanent life insurance]

NATIONAL GOVERNMENT FINANCES
No. 1 6 8 .— RECEIPTS AND EXPENDITURES OF THE GOVERNMENT
[N o t e —In thousands of dollars. Figures are on the basis of warrants issued (net) and expenditures in ­
clude unexpended balances to the credit of disbursing officers at the end of the year but not expenditures
made from unexpended balances of the previous year. On this account and because of certain adjust­
ments, principally in the cash receipts credited directly against expenditures, figures on a warrant basis
m ay differ from those on a cash basis. Under normal conditions, disbursing officers' balances fluctuate
very little and other adjustments are small, but during the war period and during the liquidation of
war corporations, etc,., the differences between the figures on the two bases m ay be marked (for adjust­
ments in 1925 and 1926, see pp. 163 and 167). Figures do not include postal revenues and expenditures
except surpluses or deficiencies]

1 T he figures given for operations in special accounts are net figures and make allowance for receipts and
deposits credited to the account concerned.
2 In the fiscal years 1921, 1922, and 1923, changes were made in classification of expenditures between leg­
islative establishment, executive proper, and other independent offices and commissions, which account
for most of the differences as compared with expenditures for other fiscal years.
3 Payments on account of veterans’ relief made prior to Aug. 11,1921, b y the War Risk Insurance Bureau
are included under Treasury Department, while similar payments made prior to that date b y the Federal
Board for Vocational Education are included under other independent offices and commissions.
4 Deduct, excess o f credits.
8 During the fiscal years 1922, 1923, 1924, and 1925, allotments for veterans' relief were made to the
Treasury, War, and N a vy Departments and, in 1924, and 1925, to the Interior Department, which appear
under these departments. In the fiscal year 1925, these allotments amounted to $6,058,000.
6 Post Office Department expenditures for June, 1921, include $65,576,000 paid to the Railroad Adm inis­
tration. This resulted in decrease in expenditures on account of “ Federal-control transportation systems
and transportation act, 1920,” b y a corresponding amount.
7 Includes $288,399,000 payments on certificates of indebtedness of Director General of Railroads, due
July 15, 1919.

$266,637,000 on account of sale of equipment trust notes, and b y $123,783,000 on account of sale or collection
of other securities acquired under the Federal control act or "transportation act, 1920. In 1923 and 1924,
receipts on these accounts were included under miscellaneous receipts.
9 Deduct, excess of credits resulting from deposits of War Finance Corporation representing proceeds
o f redemptions of its holdings of United States securities.
10 Included under Executive proper prior to fiscal year 1922.
11 Includes $350,000,000 applied b y United States Grain Corporation to reduction of capital stock and
reflected in “ Miscellaneous receipts” for fiscal year 1920.
12 Net expenditures after taking into account credits and $100,000,000 applied to reduction in capital stock
o f United States Grain Corporation.
13 $25,000,000 of this amount represents reduction in capital stock of United States Grain Corporation
effected Oct. 17, 1921, and is reflected in an increase of receipts in an equal amount.

revenue officers throughout the country, including deposits b y postmasters of amounts received from
sale o f internal revenue stamps and deposits o f internal revenue collected through customs offices, while
the other tables represent the deposits o f these collections in the Treasury or depositaries during the fiscal
