LETTER OF SUBMITTAL
D epartment of C ommerce,
B ureau of F oreign and D omestic C ommerce,
Washington, Avgust 12, 1982.
Sir : I have the honor to submit herewith for publication the fiftyfourth annual issue of the Statistical Abstract of the United States.
This annual volume has come to occupy an important place in many
business organizations as a convenient summary of authoritative
statistics showing the trends in trade and industry as well as social
progress.
Economic progress can only hope to have a sound foundation when
men are able to base their action upon facts instead of guesses. The
United States has taken the leadership among the nations of the world
in the collection and use of business statistics. However, much still
remains to be done in making more effective use of facts which are
thus available for the guidance of executive decisions. In the period
of recovery from our difficulties of the past three years there will be
more urgent need than ever before for the constructive use of such
statistics. Those executives who have learned to base their actions
upon authoritative facts will have a decided advantage over those
who ignore such data. The information on long time trends available
from this Abstract, together with the large volume of current statistics
issued in the monthly Survey of Current Business, offers the oppor
tunity to remove much of the hazard from business operations^
The present volume has been prepared in the Division of Statistical
Research, of which J. Frederic Dewhurst is chief, under the general
direction of Ernest A. Tupper, assistant chief of the division, and the
more immediate charge of Martha Hunter. The volume represents
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 several States. Many 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 Fisheries,
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 Office of
Education of the Department of the Interior; the Federal Board for
Vocational Education; the Statistical Division of the Income Tax
Unit and the Federal Farm Loan Bureau of the Treasury Department;
the Veterans' Administration; the Interstate Commerce Commission;
the United States Shipping Board; and the Division of Research and
Statistics of the Federal Reserve Board.

i Enumeration *n Southern States incomplete; this affects especially figures for the negro population.
* White population includes Mexicans prior to 1930. The estimated number of Mexicans included in

(or decrease) each year between the censuses of 1920 and 1930 is equal to the annual average change between
the two enumerations. For 1931 and 1932, the total population is estimated upon the basis of the avail
able birth, death, immigration and emigration figures and the increase in the United States total distrib
uted to the various States according to the per cent which each State increase was of the United States
increase between 1920 and 1930. If a State showed a decrease in population between 1920and 1930, the 1930
census figure was used and no estimate made. For actual enumerations, 1790 to 1930, see Table 11, p. 8

POPULATION---- DENSITY BY STATES
No. 1 2 —DENSITY OF POPULATION PER SQUARE MILE, BY STATES
N ote.—The population of continental United States has been divided by the total land area, although it
included at each census some unorganised territory which was not canvassed by the enumerators. For
each State or Territory the population as returned at a given census has been divided by the land area
as constituted at the time that census was taken. The 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 1930 of Alaska, Hawaii,
and Puerto Rico, and of Philippine Islands, December 31,1918, based on gross area, and not land area,
was as follows: Alaska, 0.1; Hawaii, 57.5; Porto Rico, 449.5; Philippine Islands, 90.0

1 Because of changes made in 1930 in the classification of agricultural pursuits, it is impossible to group
the 1920 occupations exactly according to the 1930 classification. It is believed, however, that the effect
of the difference in grouping on the comparability of figures here presented is negligible. Figures have
been adjusted to exclude those employed on turpentine farms classified in • Agriculture’ ’ in 1920 (see Note 5).
*
2 Since, in 1920, only farm laborers on general farms were distinguished as working on “ home farm” or
“ working out,” farm laborers on dairy farms, stock farms, truck farms, poultry farms, etc., who were, in
fact, working on the “ home farm” as “ unpaid family workers” were not included in “ Farm laborers (home
f a r m ) H e n c e , as here compiled for 1920, the number of farm laborers classified as “ Wage workers ” prob
ably is somewhat too large, and the number classified as “ Unpaid family workers” somewhat too small.

2 Selected occupations.

21 Not classified separately in 1920.
22 Neither in 1920 nor in 1930 was the attempt to distinguish chauffeurs and motor truck drivers from
draymen, teamsters, and carriage drivers very successful.
^
2 Teamsters in agriculture, forestry, and the extraction of minerals are classified with the other workers
3
in those industries, respectively; drivers for bakeries and stores are classified as deliverymen in trade, and
drivers for laundries are classified as deliverymen in domestic and personal service.
2 Included with “ Draymen, teamsters, and expressmen ” in 1920.
4
2 Because of indefinite returns by census enumerators, it is probable that some stationary engineers
9
were included with locomotive engineers, and some firemen of stationary boilers with locomotive firemen.

DEAF-MUTE POPULATION
G e n e r a l N o t e .—The 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 number of such persons in the population at large. Moreover,
the methods of enumeration have been changed from time to time. The difficulty of formulating an
adequate definition, the large element of personal judgment of the enumerator, and reluctance on the part
of individuals to admit defects, all affect the accuracy of the data

3. VITAL STATISTICS
G e n e r a l N o t e . —Vital statistics are registered by the States in the first instance, but duplicates of the
original certificates of individual births and deaths are received and tabulated by the Census Bureau.
Owing to the gradual expansion of the “ registration” areas (see Tables 63, 69, and 78), the number of births
and deaths for the areas as a whole are not strictly comparable but, in most cases, the rates are affected very
slightly.
General tables cover the registration area in continental United States. Hawaii and the Virgin Islands
are shown separately in certain tables. Stillbirths, shown in Table 73, are excluded from data for both
births and deaths.
Rates for the years 1920 to 1929 are revised data based on recent population estimates revised to conform
with the 1930 census returns.

No. 91.— IMMIGRATION QUOTAS ALLOTTED, AND QUOTA ALIENS ADMIT
TED: B y C o u n t r y o r R e g i o n o f B i r t h , Y e a r s E n d e d J u n e 3 0
N ote.—The immigration act of 1921 limited the number of aliens admitted annually of any nationality
subject to the quota law, to 3 per cent of the number of foreign-born persons of such nationality resident
in continental United States as determined by the Census of 1910; the population plan of the act of 1924,
to 2 per cent according to the Census of 1890. The national origins clause of the latter act, which became
effective July 1, 1929, provided that the quota of any nationality should be computed by applying to
150,000 the ratio between the calculated number of inhabitants in continental United States in 1920,
owing their origin to the nationality concerned and the total inhabitants in the United States of all
nationalities subject to the quota law. (See Table 97.) Under the act of 1924, the minimum quota is
100. Both immigrant and nonimmigrant aliens may appear in quota law statistics, or aliens of both
classes may not be counted against quotas at all

UNITED STATES: 1920
N o t e .—The
table gives the national origin of the white population of the United States as determined as
a basis for immigration quotas under the provisions of the Immigration Act of 1924. The percentage of
the total white population derived from each country of origin is expressed in terms of the equivalent
number of inhabitants. 1*Colonial Stock **is used to designate that portion of the white population which
is descended from the population enumerated in the first census, taken in 1790: “ post colonial stock,'*
that which is descended from or consists of immigrants coming to the United States after 1790. Non
quota countries include Canada, Newfoundland, Mexico, Cuba, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, and
the 16 independent Republics of Central and South America

i Figures include 1920 census data for States in which there are no Indian agencies.
a Apr. 1,1930.
a In 1930, Indians no longer under the jurisdiction of the Office of Indian Affairs were dropped from the
tabulations. The decrease in 1931 was caused by the elimination of freedmen and intermarried whites of
the Five Civilized Tribes and the inclusion of the Census Bureau figure. See note 4.
* Figures indude data for the Five Civilized Tribes, as follows: 1900, 84,570; 1910, 101,287; 1920 and
1930, 101,506. The latter figure is according to the final role of Mar. 4.1907, and includes 23,405freedmen
and 2,582 intermarried whites. It is impossible to give a reliable estimate of living members. The 1931
figure includes 72,643 members as reported by the Bureau of the Census.

N ote.—Prior to 1914, table covers quinquennial years and years in which considerable changes occurred
in the number of Regular Army. Figures for Officers’ Reserve Corps include Regular Army enlisted
men and also, prior to 1924, National Guard officers, holding commissions in the reserve. There is,
therefore, some duplication in the grand totals, but the number of this personnel is not so great as to
make a material difference in the figures

VETERANS ’

AD M IN ISTRATIO N
G e n e r a l N o t e . - Under the act of July 3, 1930, all governmental agencies affecting war veterans were
“
consolidated into one establishment, the Veterans" Administration. The total net disbursements for
activities under the Veterans' Administration for the fiscal year 1931 amounted to $785,814,000 distributed
as follows: From appropriation for former Veterans’ Bureau, $611,679,000; Pension Bureau (including opera
tions under civil service retirement law), $260,674,000; National Homes for Disabled Volunteer Soldiers,
$13,461,000. The various forms of veterans’ relief formerly under the Veterans’ Bureau aresummarized be
low and in Tables 141 to 148; activities under former Bureau of Pensions in Tables 149 and 160.
Compensation is awarded for death or disability resulting from personal injuries received or diseases
contracted in the military or naval service on or after April 6,1917, and before July 2,1921, or for an aggra
vation or recurrence of a preexisting disability resulting from such service. The rates of compensation
range from $8 per month for a temporary disability to $200 per month for double permanent total disability.
In some instances a $50 allowance for an attendant is granted in addition to other compensation.
Disability allowance.—An amendment of July 3, 1930, provides for a disability allowance to ex-service
men, who served 90 days.or more during the World War and who are suffering from a permanent disability
of 25 per cent or more not acquired in service and for which compensation is not payable.
Yearly renewable term insurance.—During the period of the war and until July 2,1927, yearly renewabia
term insurance ranging from $600 to $10,000 was issued. All term insurance not converted into permanent
United States Government life insurance before July 2,1927, lapsed. Claims upon such policies are paid
in 240 monthly installments except where there is no beneficiary named or where the beneficiary named
dies before receiving all of the payments, the remainder is paid in one sum.
Medical and hospital care.—In addition to compensation payments, the disabled person is furnished
reasonable Government medical, surgical, and hospital service and supplies, and appliances considered
reasonably necessary. Government hospital facilities are also available for veterans of the SpanishAmerican War, the Philippine Insurrection, the Boxer Rebellion, or the World War, suffering from neuro
psychiatric or tubercular ailments and diseases, paralysis agitans, encephalitis lethargica or amoebic dysen
tery, or loss of sight of both eyes, whether such ailments or diseases are due to military service or otherwise.
The administration is also authorized, as far as Government facilities permit, to furnish hospitalization and
necessary traveling expenses to veterans of any war since 1897, without regard to the nature or origin of their
disabilities. By act of June 11, 1930, retired enlisted men of the Navy and Marine Corps and transferred
members of the Fleet Naval Reserve and the Fleet Marine Corps Reserve were placed on an equal footing
with veterans entitled to hospitalization under previous acts.
Vocational rehabilitation,—Under the act of July 27,1918, honorably discharged ex-service men who were
unable to carry on in a gainful occupation successfully were provided with vocational training at Govern
ment expense. Rehabilitation activities of the bureau ceased with the close of the fiscal year 1928.
United States Government life irc$Mra«ce.—United States Government life insurance is issued in any mul
tiple of $600, not less than $1,000 or more than $10,000, upon the payment of premiums at a net peace-time
rate, with no extra charge for administration or excess mortality due to the hazards of war. (For rates and
forms of insurance see Tables 143 and 145.) The policies carry the usual provisions common to policies issued
by commercial companies, such as extended insurance, paid-up insurance, cash surrenders, and loans.
Dividends are also paid from excess of interest earnings and savings in mortality.
Adjusted compensation.—'The act of May 19,1924, authorized the payment of adjusted compensation to all
veterans of the World War, excluding officers above the grade of captain in the Army or Marine Corps or
similar rank in the Navy and Coast Guard. The rate of adjusted compensation for service in excess of
60 days is $1.25 and $1 per day and the amount of credit is limited to $625 and $500 for overseas and home
service, respectively. Veterans entitled to not more than $50 are paid in cash and others are given a 20year endowment insurance policy for an amount that the adjusted service credit increased by 25 per cent
would purchase at the age of the veteran on the birthday nearest the date of the certificate, with interest
at 4 per cent compounded annually. An amendment authorized the bureau to make loans direct to the
veteran; prior to its passage loans secured by adjusted service certificates could be made only by the banks;
Under the act of June 5,1930, applications for adjusted compensation may be filed to January 2,1935.
Retirement of disabled emergency officers.—1 he act of May 24,1928, provides that all emergency officers who
T
served during the World War who have a permanent disability incurred in line of duty of 30 per cent or
more shall receive retirement pay and be entitled to the same privileges as provided for officers of the Regular
Army, Navy, or Marine Corps who have been retired for physical disability incurred in line of duty.

C IV IL SERVICE RETIREM ENT
No. 1 50 ,— CIVIL SERVICE RETIREMENT: S u m m a ry , Y e a r s E n d e d J u n e 30
N o t e .— Retirement
for civil service employees was established by act of May 22, 1820. Under this act
and amendments of July 3, 1926, and May 29, 1930 (effective July 1, 1930) employees of the classified
service with competitive status, most of the principal groups of unclassified laborers, and certain other
groups are eligible for retirement on annuity at the ages of 62,65, and 70, according to the class of service,
if they have rendered at least 15 years of service. The last-named act permits the optional retirement
of employees two years before reaching the retirement age where they have rendered at least 30 years of
service and also provides for the retirement of those in the service not less than 5 years who, before reach
ing the retirement age, become disabled. From the basic compensation of each employee within the
scope of the acts there is deducted 3M per cent (2}£ prior to July 1, 1926) thereof for deposit to the credit
of the retirement fund. All amounts deducted prior to July 1, 1930, and thereafter amounts deducted
less $1 per month are credited to the employee's individual account. Under the amendment of May
29, 2930, annuities are composed of (1) a sum equal to $30 for each year of service not exceeding 30 and (2)
the amount of annuity purchasable with the sum credited to the individual’s account together with
interest at 4 per cent per annum

9. NATIONAL GOVERNMENT FINANCES
General note as to bases used in compiling statistics of receipts and expenditures of the United States Oovernmemt.—Four different bases are used in compiling both the receipts and expenditures of the Government.
These bases, in the case of receipts, are the daily Treasury statements (unrevised and revised), warrants
issued, and collections reported* The expenditures of the Government are published on the first three of
these bases and also on the basis of checks issued. Figures in the daily Treasury statements (unrevised)
which are on a current cash basis are compiled from the latest daily reports from the Treasury offices or
public depositories. Owing to the distance of some of these offices and depositories from the Treasury,
reports from them are somewhat delayed in reaching the Treasury, and consequently it is necessary to issue
the unrevised Treasury statements before they are received. In order to show the actual receipts and
expenditures for any month or year, it is necessary to take into account these delayed reports. The figures
for actual transactions during a month or year which are calculated by the use of these reports are said to
be on a basis of daily Treasury statements (revised). The unrevised figures are the basis of the Budget
estimates submitted to Congress by the President,
It is provided by law that warrants shall be issued by the Secretary of the Treasury in acknowledg
ment of money received, and that warrants must be drawn by the Secretary of the Treasury for all dis
bursements of money. Some of these warrants for expenditures do not represent actual payments but
are merely advances of credit to disbursing officers, who then issue checks in payment of Government
obligations. Expenditures on the basis of warrants issued include unexpended balances to the credit of
disbursing officers at the end of the year but do not include expenditures made during the year from unex
pended balances of the preceding year. For 1923 to 1926, certain receipts credited direct to appropriations
were not included in total receipts shown on a warrant basis (though included in cash receipts) but instead
operated to reduce expenditures; subsequently they were credited to receipts. Under normal conditions
the unexpended balances of disbursing offices vary comparatively little from year to year, and other adjust
ments are small, but during a war period or a period of postwar adjustments differences in these items may
be large and may cause marked discrepancies between figures shown on a cash as compared with a warrant
basis. Forexample, the liquidation of the War Finance Corporation has caused some very large differences
between figures of Government expenditures on these bases during the past decade.
Expenditures on the basis of checks issued (Table 163) reprosent most accurately the actual expenditures
during any given year. They differ from expenditures shown by daily Treasury statements (revised),
because they include checks outstanding at the end of the year and exclude unpaid checks at the beginning
of the year.
All figures for receipts and expenditures include the figures of postal surpluses or deficiencies only and
consequently leave out the gross figures of postal revenues and expenditures.

IN T E R N A L R E V E N U E COLLECTIO NS
No. 160.— INTERNAL REVENUE: A m o u n t s C o l l e c t e d f r o m P r i n c i p a l S o u r c e s
The figures represent collections by internal revenue officers
throughout the country, including deposits by postmasters of amounts received from sale of internal rev
enue stamps and deposits of internal revenue collected through customs offices, and, therefore, differ
from those in Tables 157,159, and 162 which represent the deposits of these collections in the Treasury or
depositaries during the fiscal year concerned, there being thus an overlapping of time. Certain items,
included in the totals in the last column, are shown in detail in the second part of the table
N o t e .— A ll figures in thousands of dollars.

REVENUES AND EXPEN DITU RES-----STATES
No. 199.— REVENUES AND EXPENDITURES OF STATE GOVERNMENTS
N o t e .— Both receipts and expenditures are net figures, excluding temporary
and special transactions which
represent virtually duplication. Revenue receipts do not include any receipts from borrowing of money.
Outlays, which enter into the total for governmental-cost payments, represent capital investments,
including those made with the proceeds of borrowed money. The excess of governmental-cost payments
over revenue receipts represents, approximately, increase of indebtedness

MONEY
No. 2 1 8 .— STOCK OF MONEY IN THE UNITED STATES, BY KINDS
Figures prior to 1800 have been revised from the best available
data, but the older records, especially from 1860 through the early 70’s, are not complete and figures for
gold and silver those years are only estimates. Figures beginning 1890 have been compiled on the basis
of revised figures for June 30 of each year and therefore differ slightly from the monthly circulation state
ments. In 1027, data were revised to include minor coins beginning 1000 (no satisfactory data available
for earlier years) and gold coin and bullion held abroad for Federal reserve banks and to exclude ear
marked gold. Gold and silver certificates and Treasury notes of 1890 are not shown, since equivalent
amounts held in trust against them are included in gold coin and bullion and silver dollars
N o t e .— A mounts in thousands of dollars.

N o t e .— Banks
in Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and Philippine Islands are included. Data for national
banks and in recent years lor other classes are as of June 30 or about June 30. In earlier years reports for
banks other than national were of various dates. Figures for private banks, which include only those
under State supervision and others voluntarily reporting, except for 1880, and for other banks except
national for earlier years, especially 1875, 1880, and 1885, are incomplete. For 1910 and 1915, when sta
tistics were compiled, from reports from individual banks, and in recent years, the segregation o f the
classes of banks is fairly accurate. In other years figures for State banks include stock savings banks
and loan and trust companies in a number of States, and in some instances private banks. Deposits
exclude interbank demand deposits and U. S. deposits; they also exclude dividends unpaid and, begin
ning 1910, certified and cashiers* checks, items at one time included in original figures for demand
deposits; they include postal savings

3 In 1921 returns from California, which in 1920 had shown 106 stock savings banks, included all banka
except 1 mutual savings bank with State banks, which accounts for part of the increase in State banks and
the greater part of the decrease in stock savings banks. In subsequent years returns showed separate
statistics for each class of banks.
<Average for all private banks for the 0 months ended May 31,1880.
• Data shown for mutual savings banks, 1880 and 1885, include stock savings banks. For deposits in

FEDEBAL AND JOINT-STOCK LAND BANKS
General note as to credit extended by banks organized under the Federal farm loan act—Federal and jointland banks, operating under the supervision of the Federal Farm Loan Board, extend long-term credit to
farmers on security of first mortgages on farm lands. The loans must be on an amortization basis and for
maturities of not less than 5 nor more than 40 years. Practically all loans of the former are made through
and indorsed by national farra-loan associations, while the latter deal directly with the borrowers. The
Federal intermediate credit banks, also under supervision of the Federal Farm Loan Board, provide
agricultural credit for a period of not more than 3 years. They discount agricultural paper for banks and
agricultural credit corporations, livestock loan companies, and other financing institutions, and make
direct loans to cooperative marketing associations secured by warehouse receipts or shipping documents
representing staple agricultural commodities. Under an amendment of June 30, 1930, they may also make
loans to bariks and other financing institutions upon security of agricultural or livestock paper eligible
for discount

mencing 1920 they are for 173 identical cities. The comparability of these figures is affected (1) by changes
in the number of cities reporting, and (2) b y the tendency toward consolidation of banks, eliminating
former clearings between two or more banks. Debits to individual account (Tables 270 and 271) area
more significant measure of volume of payment. The divisions shown in this table, with the exception
of the New England, differ from the geographical divisions shown in most tables in the Abstract. The
Eastern division includes the States comprising the Middle Atlantic division in other tables (see for
example Table 346) and Delaware* Maryland, and District of Columbia of the South Atlantic division;
the Southern includes the other six South Atlantic States, the East South Central and the West South
Central States with the exception of Oklahoma; the Middle Western includes the East North Central
States, Minnesota, Iowa, and Missouri; the Western, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas,
Oklahoma, Montana, Wyoming, and Colorado; the Pacific, Washington, Oregon, California, Idaho,
Utah, Nevada, and Arizona

New York Journal of Commerce and include losses of $10,000 or over in the principal cities of the United
States, adding 15 per cent for small and unreported losses. These figures are not comparable with those
shown for later years (the 1916 Journal of Commerce figure being $214,531,000 as against $258,378,000)

N o t e —T otals in this table and No. 289 do not agree with totals in Tables 285 to 287 because of differences
in the reports from which they are compiled as furnished b y the companies to the various insurance
departments, and because of duplications from reinsurance. The former also cover business transacted
in continental United States only, while the latter include also foreign business of United States

G e n e r a l N o t e .— The wholesale price index of the Department of Labor is based on primary market
quotations of 784 commodities beginning 1926; a smaller number of commodities was covered in earlier
years. In weighting the prices included in the index, the biennial census reports of 1923 ead 1925 have
been used for most manufactured products and for other products the average for the years 1923 to 1925
where trustworthy information was available as in the case of agricultural products. Beginning with 1921,
in computing indexes for commodity groups, articles falling under more than one of the classifications
adopted were included under each classification. For example, articles produced on the farm which reach
the consumer practically unchanged in form, such as potatoes, milk, and eggs, were included among both
farm products and foods. However, in computing the index for all commodities such articles were counted
only once.
The retail food index is based on the weighted average quotations (weighted b y average family consump
tion in 1918) as of the 15th of the month, secured from retail stores in 51 cities since 1920 (from a smaller
number in earlier years) for 22 commodities from 1913 to 1920, for 43 commodities from 1921 to 1928, and
4,2 tli6r6&ft6r
The farm price index is constructed by weighting prices paid to producers for 27 products (30 products
for 1922 to 1926), Average quotations for the period, August, 1909-July, 1914, are used as a base, and each
price series is weighted by the average annual marketings of farmers in the years 1918 to 1923.

N ote .—These index numbers are based on such information as afforded comparisons through a series of
years. N o one series of directly comparable data extends through the entire period, although many
trades and industries are continuously represented in the table. Agricultural wages are not included in
the indexes given in this table, but are presented separately in Table 554; this separation was made because
of the seasonal character of the industry, the wide differences in methods of hiring, and the perquisites
so often forming a part of the farm wages. The figures in this table indicate the change in earnings per
hour when wage workers were actually at work, with 1913 as the base year. During the period, regular
full-time working hours have been greatly reduced; hence the figures do not apply to full-time earnings per
day or per week. Further, they do not reflect actual earnings in periods of broken tim e or unemploym ent

NUMBERS OF WAGES PER
AND REAL WAGES
HOUR, COST
OF
IIVING ,
N o te .—The general trend of wages per hour presented in Table 320 relate to the m oney received per hour b y
the wage earner as compensation for his work. The real measure of his wage, however, is not his m oney
income, but what he is able to b u y with it. In the following table, therefore, index numbers relating to
wages per hour and to cost of living are brought together and from them a third index number is com
puted showing the change in the worker’s “ real wage”

States, A
p r il
, 1930
In the tabulation of unemploym ent returns 7 classes are distinguished each of which has a defi
nite relation to the unem ploym ent problem, though some of them are composed m ainly of persons who
would not, even under the most, elastic definition, be considered “ unem ployed.” D ata for the two main
classes, A and B , are shown in the following table. United States totals for the other classes are as follows:
Class C , persons out of a job and unable to work, 172,661; Class D , persons having jobs but idle on account
of sickness or disability, 273,588; Class E, persons out of a job and not looking for work, 87,988; Class F,
persons having jobs but voluntarily idle without pay, 84,595; Class G, persons having jobs and drawing
pay though not at work (on vacation, etc.), 82,335. State figures for classes C to G, classes A and B b y
period of idleness, and unemploym ent returns for cities of 100,000 or more inhabitants are shown in Statis

except as indicated, in thousands of dollars. Since N o v . 1, 1916, all service on steam
railroads is authorized and paid for under the space basis system; formerly, paym ents were based on
a system of quadrennial weighings. Railway mail space units of service vary in size and character and
m ay consist of a car, a section of a car, or a closed pouch carried on a car. Some cars are railway post
offices, others are for storage only, over 20 classes of units being distinguished. T h e “ equated un it”
represents a calculation of the equivalent of all the different units in terms of a 60-foot car. Annual
rate of expenditure (regular authorizations) represents estimated cost for transporting normal mail traffic
over regular routes only, based on contracts outstanding at the end of each fiscal year. “ Annual cost”
includes emergency and side and transfer service. Average rates are based on “ regular authorizations”

o t e .— Companies engaged in interstate business are required to report both as regards interstate and
intrastate business. Prior to 1923 the classification of companies based on the amount of annual operating
revenues was as follows: Class A , over $250,000; Class B, $50,000 to $250,000; Class C , $10,000 to $50,000.
Class B now includes companies with revenues from $100,000 to $250,000 and Class C those with revenues
from $50,000 to $100,000. The smaller companies, Class D , are not covered in the table

1 T h e fuel equivalent for water power is calculated from the reported horsepower o f installed water
wheels. Prior to 1890 data were unsatisfactory, but estimates are included in the total.
2 Calculated at 26,200,000 British thermal units per ton.
8 Based on the amount of coal displaced b y gas, as estimated b y the gas companies at the time.
No. 3 6 4 .— ELECTRICITY PRODUCED, CONSUMPTION OF FUEL, AND CAPAC
ITY OF GENERATORS IN PUBLIC-UTILITY POWER PLANTS
N o te .— D ata prior to 1919 are totals for central stations and electric railways as reported by Bureau o f the
Census; thereafter, they are estimated totals for all plants, based on returns from abou t 3,600 plants in
1919 to about 3,900 in 1931, each producing 10,000 kilowatt-hours or more per m onth, engaged in pubiic
service, including central stations, electric railways, steam railroads generating electricity for traction,
and certain other plants. T h e capacity o f plants reporting is about 96 per cent of that o f all plants

o t e . —A central electric station is one selling current to public or private consumers, or a municipal plant
supplying current for streets, public buildings, etc. Isolated or private plants operated solely for the
benefit of the owner in connection with factories, mines, stores, hotels, institutions, etc., which in the
aggregate produce great quantities of current, are not included. T h e business of electric street railways
is shown only so far as that portion of their business relating to the sale of current can be segregated.
Electric plants operated b y the Federal or State Governments are excluded even when they sell current
to private consumers. One central electric station often sells current to another, so that there is consid
erable duplication in total sales. Net sales are considerably less than current generated because of wire
losses, self consum ption, etc.
All central electric stations

WATER POWER
No. 3 7 2 . — DEVELOPED AND POTENTIAL WATER POWER
N
o t e .— In
thousands of horsepower. Data for developed water power cover capacity of actual installation
of water wheels and turbines in plants of 100 horsepower or more. T h e figures for potential power are
estimates showing the 24-hour horsepower available 90 per cent of the tim e and 50 per cent of the time
at an over-all efficiency o f 70 per cent at all developed and undeveloped sites. These figures for potential
power are n ot directly com parable with those for developed power, because developed power is usually
given in terms of the capacity o f installed water wheels or turbines, which m ay be several times the poten
tial power available 90 per cent o f the tim e. Probably with com plete developm ent o f the water-power
resources of the whole country the installed capacity would amount to 80,000,000 horsepower or more

i T he figures for 1921 are based only on price of 5-passenger open cars o f a given chassis. Thus, if
this model sold for less than $1,000, the total production of cars with the same chassis is included in tho
“ under $1,000” class, even though closed models sold for over $1,000. In 1922 and later years actual f. o. b.
prices of open and closed models are considered separately and the cars included under proper classification.

20.— STEAM AND ELECTRIC RAILW AYS AND EXPRESS
COMPANIES
[Data in this section relate to continental United States unless otherwise stated]
G eneral N ote .—T he total steam railroad mileage o f the United States includes: (a) Regular inter
state carriers (and their nonoperating subsidiaries) reporting to the Interstate Commerce Commission,
(6) switching and'term inal railroads, also reporting to the com m ission; and (c) private railroads (defined
b y the commission as “ circular” because they report on brief circulars and as ‘ ‘ unofficial” ). E xcept in
certain mileage data the circular and unofficial companies are not included in any o f the statistics. T he
switching and terminal roads were form erly included with operating railways, but are now separated, and
data for them do not appear in m ost of the tables.
Nonoperating subsidiaries include proprietary companies, which are covered b y the reports of operating
carriers, and lessor companies which have no traffic and whose reports appear only in statistics o f capitali
zation, dividends, and investment.
Operating railways are divided into three classes, according to the amount o f gross operating revenue in
1919: Class I, having more than $1,000,000 of such revenue; Class I I , from $100,000 to $1,000,000; and Class
III, less than $100,000. During recent years more detailed reports are required from Class I carriers than
from smaller companies. The basis of the figures in each table is indicated b y notes. Omission of Class
II and Class III railroads affects very little the comparability of statistics with those o f earlier years as
regards most items, since the bulk o f the business is done b y Class I.
T he Interstate Commerce Commission divides railroads geographically into three districts and eight
subsidiary regions. Each railroad is treated as a unit and placed wholly in some one district or region.
B roadly speaking, the eastern district includes territory east o f Chicago and north of the Ohio and Potomac
Rivers; southern district, territory east o fth e Mississippi River and south of the Ohio and P otom ac Rivers;
and western district the remainder of the country.
Class I companies m ake m onthly reports and the yearly totals from these become available earlier than
the sometimes slightly corrected totals from the final annual reports. The latest figures in these tables
are in m any cases from the m onthly reports.
No. 3 8 9 . — RAILWAY MILEAGE OWNED AND MILEAGE OPERATED CLASSI
FIED BY TRACKAGE
N ote .— Beginning with 1908 switching and terminal roads are om itted (they operate about 2,000 miles of
first main track). T h e first and second columns cover all railways including “ circular” and “ unoffi
cial” lines; the last five colum ns om it “ circular” and “ unofficial” lines. Mileage owned excludes all
duplication and covers continental United States only. Mileage operated includes some duplication
under trackage rights and some mileage in Canada operated b y United States companies

RAILROADS
No. 4 1 9 — PERSONS KILLED AND INJURED IN RAILWAY ACCIDENTS
N
o t e .— For various reasons, including the fact that returns were required under different acts, the statistics
are not strictly comparable. Prior to 1921, train accidents were those causing damage to railway prop
erty in excess o f $150 or any damage and a resulting casualty. Thereafter they were considered as such
when the damage exceeded $150 with or without a casualty. Where the damage is less than $150 and
there is a reportable casualty it is classified as a train-service accident. Figures for years 1911-1915 in
clude industrial and other nontrain accidents to employees only, and for years 1908-1910 do not cover
switching and terminal roads. Otherwise the statement covers all reportable accidents

—This table does not include the electric operations of steam railway companies. M any electric
railway companies also engage in other operations, especially in the sale of current for light and power;
wherever possible, such light and power business has been excluded, but for numerous companies this
is impossible. N o distinction can be made in the statistics between purely urban street railways and
suburban and interurban lines. The insignificant amount of business still conducted b y cable and
animal traction is included, as well as some operations conducted b y primarily electric railways by
means of steam traction and gasoline engine cars. In the trackage statistics of this table, each track of a
double or multiple line is counted separately. Mileage figures expressed in nearest mile

General note as to units of measurement.—“ Cargo tonnage” represents weight of cargo in long tons (2,240
pounds) or short tons (2,000 pounds). A ll other tonnage figures refer to capacity o f vessels. T h e terms
gross and net tonnage refer to space measurement, 100 cubic feet being called 1 ton. Gross tonnage is the
capacity o f the entire space within the frames and the ceiling of the hull, together w ith those closed-in
spaces above deck available for cargo, stores, passengers or crew, with certain minor exemptions. Net
or registered tonnage is what remains after deducting from the gross tonnage the spaces occupied b y the
propelling machinery, fuel, crew quarters, master’s cabin, and navigation spaces. It represents substan
tially space available for cargo and passengers. T he net tonnage capacity o f a ship recorded as “ entered
with cargo” m ay bear little relation to actual weight o f cargo. Dead-weight tonnage is the weight in
long tons required to depress a vessel from light water line (that is, with only the machinery and equip
ment on board) to load line. It is therefore the weight of the cargo, fuel, etc., which a vessel is designed
to carry w ith safety. Displacement tonnage (naval vessels) has reference to weight of the vessel itself
with its normal equipment, fuel, etc.

1Includes the following, with figures for 1930: Harbor traffic of New York, Philadelphia, and San Fran
cisco (45,763,000 tons); local traffic of other seaports (29,704,000); local traffic of lake ports (5,936,000).
2 Excluding St. M arys Falls Canal traffic (72,898,000 tons in 1930) and additional Detroit R iver traffic
(21,258,000 tons in 1930), both of which are already counted in Great Lakes traffic; also excluding duplica
tions relating to rivers and canals themselves.
3Principally coastwise and lake traffic passing through canals and connecting channels, other than the
St. M arys Falls Canal and the Detroit River.
4Estimated from data in this table on the assumption that all the duplications deducted from the grand
total represent duplications in domestic traffic; there are, however, some minor cases of duplication con
c e d e d with foreign traffic.

N
o t e , — In thousands of short tons of 2,000 pounds.
In addition to the commerce here shown, m any of
the ports have (1) commerce with ports on internal rivers and canals; (2) purely local port traffic, including
in the case of New York, Philadelphia, and San Francisco, what is called intraport traffic between parts
of a harbor for which separate statistics are maintained. These forms of traffic, although the aggregate
tonnage is large, are of much less economic importance than foreign and coastwise traffic

PRODUCTION OF EXPORTABLE GOODS AND PROPORTION
EXPORTED
N ote,—Agricultural production prior to X925 is the estimated value of farm products, excluding crops fed
to livestock; beginning 1925 it is gross income, excluding feed, seed, and waste. Value added by manufac'
ture represents manufactures. Value of mine products in 1909 and 1919 are census figures; estimates for
other years are based on data of the Bureau of Mines. As the figures are not adjusted for price changes
the increase or decrease in absolute values from period to period should be disregarded.

Ho. 4 7 2 .— INDEXES OF CHANGES IN QUANTITY, PRICE, AND VAlUE OF
IMPORTS AND EXPORTS OF UNITED STATES MERCHANDISE
N ote .—T he purpose o f these indexes is to eliminate the effect o f price changes upon the total value of
trade. They have been constructed b y the so-called ideal formula, the essential feature of which is the
use as weighting factors of the mean of the values of the several articles during each pair of years compared.
About 180 commodities were included in the direct calculations for exports and 160 in those for imports.
It was then assumed that the prices of articles not directly covered had moved in parallel with those of
articles covered, save only that in making the adjustment the effect of abnormal price movements of
heavily weighted commodities was first eliminated. In constructing the indexes, data for 1919 wiere linked
directly to 1913 and each subsequent year was compared with that preceding* T he resulting percentages
were made into a series by the chain method.

continental United States as the basis. In the totals, trade between it and Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto
Rico is included while the trade of these three Territories with foreign countries is excluded. Trade of
continental United States with Guam and America^ Samoa is also included. Practically all other
nations calculate their foreign trade in the manner followed in the present table; that is, totaling the trade
of the home country with foreign countries and with all outlying areas. Prior to 1901 Alaska was our only
outlying area. Therefore, our foreign trade statistics for 1900 and earlier years very nearly represent the
trade of continental United States with foreign countries. Data are for years ended June 30, through
1918; thereafter, for years ended Dec. 31

N ote .—All figures in thousands ol dollars. Since 1922 there is an understatement of the Value of free
goods in the figures for general imports resulting from the following facts: (1) Wheat imported (practi
cally all coming from Canada) for 1922 to 1928 was all reported as dutiable when first entered, but most ol
it was subsequently used for milling-in-bond for export and in that case no duty is collected; (2) carpet
wool for 1922 to 1931 was nearly all reported as dutiable when first entered but most of it is subsequently
used for making carpets in which case no duty is collected. These shifts affect the general total and the
totals for the economic classes of crude materials, and crude foodstuffs in Table485. The following table
shows for these classes approximately the proportions free and dutiable since 1923 after adjusting for these
shifts. It also shows approximate adjusted figures of free and dutiable imports from Canada. The shift
of carpet wool from dutiable to free likewise aflects somewhat the proportions free and dutiable in imports
from countries supplying carpet wool (principally United Kingdom. China, Argentina, Chile, and
India), but no adjustments have been made for such countries or for continent totals. See Table 526 of the
1930 Statistical Abstract for adjustments for 1922 and 1923

No. 4 8 9 .— SUPPLEMENT TO TABLES 487, 488, AND 496: A djusted F igures
of E xports to C anada , N orth A merica , N orthern N orth A m erica , and
E urope
N o t e , — Especially from 1920 through 1929 large quantities o f United States grain were shipped through Can
ada (mostly via Montreal) to other foreign countries. Since the final destination is customarily not known
when shipped, this grain is reported as an export to Canada, but as a matter of fact practically all of it
except from five to ten million dollars* worth of corn annually goes thence to Europe. In the following
table the reported figures o f total value of exports are adjusted on the assumption that all this grain was
destined for Europe, an assumption adopted for convenience and involving only a small margin of error.
Figures cover fiscal years for 1910-1914; calendar, for all other years
[Millions and tenths of millions of dollars]
Adjusted figures deducting such grain from exports to Canada and adding
to exports to Europe

N ote.—Fiscal years to and including 1915; thereafter, calendar years. All figures except export figures
for 1865 and 1870-1878 represent specie values; exports for those years represent mixed gold and currency
values and hence do not agree with the specie values given for total exports in other tables. Exports
and imports of the interior districts, a small percentage of the total (see Table 497), are not included in
this table

Ho. 4 9 9 .— EXPORTS (INCLUDING REEXPORTS) AND GENERAL IMPORTS
OF MERCHANDISE, BY PRINCIPAL CUSTOMS DISTRICTS
N ote .—All figures in thousands of dollars. Fiscal years to and including 1915; thereafter, calendar
years. Figures represent specie values except for exports for years 1865 and 1870-1878. Areas of districts
were rearranged July 1,1913. Prior to that date some of the districts were more restricted. However,
in most cases, this change only slightly affects the comparability o f the figures. Prior to 1914 the
statistics given in the table for Buffalo include the (former) districts of Buffalo Creek and Niagara;
those for Michigan include the (former) districts of Superior, Huron, and Detroit; and those for
Massachusetts and Maryland were the former districts of Boston and Baltimore, respectively. See
also headnote, Table 498

No. 5 0 0 .— GENERAL IMPORTS OF MERCHANDISE BY COMMODITY GROUPS AND ARTICLES
N ote .—Data are for calendar years. Figures for 1921-1925 and 1926-1930 are annual averages. For a number of items data are not shown separately for all years from 1921-1930, and
for this reason many averages for two, three, and four years are shown in the table. However, averages shown for group totals always cover five years. In some cases the detail
does not add to the total because of the different periods covered by the data. For 1929, 1930, and 1931 a small item, “ Articles, ordinarily dutiable, imported free” is not shown
separately except in group 9, but is included in the total for each group. For annual averages for 1910-1914, see Statistical Abstract 1930, Table 548

23.— COMMERCE OF NONCONTIGUOUS TERRITORIES
G en e r al N o t e — In the general foreign-trade statistics of the United States presented in the preceding
section, the Philippines and virgin Islands are treated as foreign countries and their trade with the United
States is included while their trade with other countries is not included. On the other hand, Puerto Rico
Hawaii, and Alaska are treated as integral parts of the United States, so that trade between them and
continental United States is not included, while trade between them and foreign countries is included;
each of these three territories appears as a separate customs district (Table 497). Neither trade of Ameri
can Samoa and Guam with foreign countries nor shipments between them and United States are included
In the general tables on foreign trade. See also Table 476, p. 431.
T he tables in this section present the total foreign trade of each of the United States territories and
possessions and show separately the trade with Continental United States (unless otherwise indicated)
and with foreign countries, including other United States territories and possessions.
No. 5 0 8 .— IMPORTS AND EXPORTS OF ALASKA

*The discrepancy between the United States figures of exports to the Philippines prior to 1911 and the
Philippine figures of imports from the United States in corresponding periods is due chiefly to the fact
that the Philippine import figures prior to that year omit merchandise imported free o f duty for the use of
the Government or for use in construction and equipment of railways in the islands, under the act of Feb.
6,1905, while the United States returns om it only Government supplies carried b y Government vessels.

DRAINAGE
No. 5 2 9 .— DRAINAGE : S u m m a r y
for
the
U n it e d
States
—The statistics for drainage on farms in the first part of this table were collected from the individual
farmers while those for drainage enterprises were obtained from a special canvass of organized drainage
enterprises. A farm may have artificial drainage without being connected with any general enterprise;
conversely, a general enterprise may facilitate the ultimate removal of water from a farm which has itself
no artificial drainage. Drainage enterprises comprise public corporations and local improvement districts
established under State laws relating to drainage, commercial enterprises draining land for sale, other
organizations engaged in extensive land drainage work, and tracts of 500 acres or more drained by individ
ual farm owners. The enterprises may include timbered and other unimproved land not yet in farms.
The canvass of drainage enterprises did not include any of the northeastern States, and no enterprises
were found in Alabama or West Virginia, and in 1919 none also in Virginia.

i Revised estimates as of Jan. 1,1925.
1 For definition of urban and rural population, see headnote, Table 34, p. 45.
3 The 1930 farm population comprises all persons living on farms without regard to occupation; the 1920
figures include also those farm laborers (and their families) who, while not living on farms, lived outside the
limits of any incorporated place. A further difference is due to the fact that the 1920 census was taken in
January, while the 1930 census was taken in April, when the number of persons on farms is appreciably
larger. For farm population by States see Table 36, p. 47.
* Farm population figures were obtained on the farm schedule in the Agricultural Census of 1925, while
in 1920 and 1930 they were obtained from the population schedule. Owing to the different method of col
lecting the information, the 1925 figures are not here presented for comparison with the 1920 and 1930 returns
pending a further analysis of the data.
3These figures include the value of fences, tile drains, and other incidental improvements on the land,
excluding only the value of buildings.
3 Domestic animals, chickens, and bees.

N ote .—F arm values of crops and animal products are obtained b y multiplying State quantities b y State
average prices. Prices used in most cases are weighted averages—for animal products, calendar-year
averages; for crops, averages for the period during which the crop is marketed. Gross income represents
value of farm production sold plus value of production retained for use in the farm home, excluding, in
the ease of crops, amounts retained for feed and seed and amounts unfit for sale and consumption. Cash
income excludes products used in the farm home

N ote .—P roduction, consumption, and exports beginning 1914 are in thousands of running bales (counting
round as half bales); these items prior to 1914, and net imports, all years, are in thousands of 500-pound
bales, gross weight. Production statistics relate to the growth year indicated in the stub. Other sta
tistics fear the most part relate to the 12-month period roughly corresponding to the marketing of the
crop; there have been minor variations from time to time in the periods covered, but consumption,
exports, and imports, beginning 1914, and prices, beginning 1910, are for the 12 months ended July 31
following the year indicated in the stub. Prices for 1902 to 1909 represent the price of the average grade
marketed in New Orleans up to April 1 of the following year; from 1910 to date the average price on the
farm of all lint cotton throughout the country

1 Figures are based upon partial information only, from incomplete reports. Reliable data are not avail
able prior to organized protection.
2 Figures do not take into account the vast amount of intangible and indirect damage resulting from
forest fires, such as that through decay or damaged timbers, replacements of desirable species of trees by
less desirable but more fire-resistant ones, soil deterioration and erosion, loss of wild life, uncertain stream
flow, interrupted tourist traffic, and the like.
3 The increase in total acreage is primarily nonforest land.

N ote .—Figures for 1919 and 1929 have been revised to make them comparable except for 1919 where data
for revision were not available, and for certain States for 1929 where revision would result in disclosure of
individual operations. Therefore, the total for the United States is less than the sum of the figures for the
States for both years and for geographic divisions for 1919

are not strictly comparable, owing to the inclusion or exclusion of data for 1929 not similarly treated for
1919. For the limestone industry, data for quarrying operations of lime and cement manufacturers are
included in the figures for 1929 but not in those for 1919. For the sandstone industry, data for enter
prises whose product was ground into glass or molding sand, or used as refractory materials (siliceous
mica schist and ganister), etc., are included in the figures for 1919 but excluded from those for 1929 and
included in the figures for the glass-sand, molding-sand, abrasive-materials, or silica industries, according
to the nature and purpose of the final product. Data for diatomaceous earth are included in the figures
for abrasive materials in 1919 and in those for silica in 1929

PRODUCTS
No. 6 9 5 .— PRODUCTS OF STEEL WORKS AND ROILING MILIS AND OF THE
WIRE, TIN-PLATE, AND CAST-IRON PIPE INDUSTRIES
N o t e .—The
overlapping of the industries shown in this table results in considerable duplication in ton
nages shown. The products chiefly used further in manufacture are wire rods, plates, and sheets, black
plates for tinning, and skelp. The figures under “ W ire,” “ Tin and terneplate,” and “ Cast-iron pipe
and fittings" include data for products of these departments of steel works and rolling mills and of all
other industries producing these commodities. For more detailed statistics, see Census reports for

Production
figures include continental United States and Alaska. Owing to the varying stages of production, the
stocks in different classes of hands, the redistribution of copper previously purchased* the recovery and
use of old copper, etc., calculations of consumption are somewhat uncertain. T he American Bureau
of Metal Statistics presents consumption estimates rather widely different from those given below. Con
sumption as shown represents the quantity of copper withdrawn on domestic account, but not actual
domestic consumption, as no account is taken of consumers’ stocks

N ote .—T he London price is con\T
erted to the basis of the ounce 1,000 fine and converted to American
money throughout at par of exchange, notwithstanding the fact that from 1918 to 1924, inclusive, and
in 1931 the pound sterling was depreciated as compared to the dollar. During these periods of depre
ciation the commercial ratio is computed on the basis of the New York average price; the value of fine
silver (371^ grains) in the dollar is computed on the basis of the New York average price beginning 1918.
For other years computations are on the basis of the London quotations, which were at all times close to
the New York quotations

3 Includes electric central stations and street railways and certain minor plants. Data not available for
1889.
*Item ( /) includes coal used b y mine employees and sold for domestic purposes in the vicinity of the
mine. It also includes an unknown amount taken b y locomotive tenders at the tipple or sold to a near-by
factory or power plant. It therefore involves an unknown amount of overlapping with items (b), (c), and
(i). Double counting in the total is avoided by an adjustment in item ( j) . which is obtained by subtracting
the sum of all other items from the known total.
‘ Figures include sill coal used except that charged in coke ovens.
^Includes coal for gas making only. Excludes coal charged in byprodu ct coke ovens operated b y city
gas companies, which is included under item (d).

plants; includes consumption of railroad-car shops,
8Includes heating of large buildings other than factories, and also some nondomestic uses not covered
elsewhere. Obtained by subtraction; see item ( / ) and note 4. Because of this it is affected by any errors in
the other items.

32__ MANUFACTURES
[Bata in this section relate to continental United States. For additional statistics regarding food manufactur
ing industries and mineral manufacturing industries see sections on Farm Animals and Animal Products,
Farm Crops and Foodstuffs, and Mining and Mineral Products]
G ener al N o t e — Prior to 1899 census statistics of manufactures were collected decennially and from
then to 1919 every five years. Beginning with 1921 data are being collected every two years. For the
census of 1899 and previous censuses data were collected for both factories and hand and neighborhood
industries. For the census years 1904 to 1919, inclusive, factories having products valued at $500 or more
were included, but the statistics beginning 1921 (except as to certain major items shown for that year in
Table 751 on ly), relate only to establishments having products valued at $5,000 or more. H owever,in 1921,
establishments having products valued at $500 or more but less than $5,000, while constituting 21.6 percent
of the total number of establishments, employed only six-tenths of 1 per cent of the total number of wage
earners, and had an output of only three-tenths of 1 per cent of the total value of products.
The statistics for automobile repairing, collected for 1914 and 1919, have been excluded from Tables 750
to 754. Data for “ Coffee and spice, roasting and grinding,” have been included, except for 1925, for which
year such data were not tabulated for the United States as a whole; and data for “ Poultry killing, dressing,
and packing, wholesale” are included for all years except 1927, for which year this industry was not can
vassed. In Table 750, data for central-administrative-office employees have been excluded for 1923 and
later years. The figures for 1914,1919, and 1921, however, include such data.
Figures for wages, cost of materials, etc., and value of products are greatly affected by changes in the
buying power of money or, in other words, by the general levels of prices and wages. Figures of total
cost of materials, etc., and total value of products for many individual industries, for all groups of indus
tries, and especially for all industries combined, involve much duplication. This is due to the use of prod
ucts of a given establishment as material for another in the same or a different industry.

1 T o make the percentages for the number of establishments comparable, those for all 6 years have been
based on the number of establishments reporting products valued at $5,000 or more. The percentages for
wage earners and value of products, however, have not been similarly adjusted, the comparability of these
percentages having been affected very slightly by the omission of small establishments in 1923, 1925, and
1929.
2 N o data for establishments with products under $6,000 in value have been tabulated for 1923,1925, and
1929.
*The data for the 53,999 establishments in the “ Less than $5,000” class are not included in other
tables showing statistics for 1921.
* Figures include data for the $500,000 to $1,000,000 class.
J Data included with the $100,000 to $500,000 class.

N ote ,—T he figures given in this table do not represent exactly the numbers of wage earners, values of
products, etc., assignable to the classes of commodities from which the industries derive their names,
as it is necessary for census purposes to classify each establishment as a whole in some one industry,
according to its product of chief value, although in many cases a single establishment manufactures
two or more classes of commodities. The figures for cost of materials and value of products for each
group and each subgroup include considerable duplication due to the use of the products of one in
dustry as the materials for another, and in some cases similar duplication occurs within an industry.
No data for horsepower were collected for 1921. For totals for all industries and for 16 great groups see
Table 753. Five census years have been shown for all industries that reported $200,000,000 or more in
value of products or over 50,000 wage earners in 1929. For other industries, 1925, 1927, and 1929 have
been shown except as indicated by footnotes

1 Because of a change in classification of some of the industries included in this group for 1929 the figures for
previous years have been revised to preserve comparability.
s Because of a change in classification no comparable statistics can be shown for earlier years.
3 No data were compiled for 1925 except for San Ffancisco, Calif.
4 For 1927 and 1929, included in “ Peanuts, walnuts, and other nuts, processed.”
6 Prior to 1927 part of the establishments now in this industry were classified in the “ Food preparations,
not elsewhere classified/’ industry and part in the “ Peanuts, grading, roasting, cleaning, and shelling”
industry, which has been abandoned.
6 Figures include cereal beverages (“ near beer” and similar soft drinks).
7 Kevised; revision not carried into total.
8 Data for work clothing were not tabulated separately prior to 1923; therefore, no comparable statistics
can be given for earlier years for “ Clothing, except work, etc.”
6 “ Handkerchiefs,” “ Embroideries/' “ Trim m ings/’ and “ Millinery” were first treated as separate
industries at the census for 1927. For prior censuses data for “ Handkerchiefc” were included in part in
“ Furnishing goods, men's,” and in part in “ Millinery and lace goods” ; data for “ Embroideries/' “ Trim
mings,” and “ M illinery” were included in “ Millinery and lace goods” industry, which was abandoned at
the census for 1927. No comparable figures can be given for earlier years.
1 Figures for 1927 revised b y the inclusion of sewing-machine cases. The figurss for 1925 and earlier years
0
therefore are not strictly comparable with those for 1927 and 1929. (See also footnote 11.)
n Includes data for “ Hammocks,” treated as a separate industry prior to 1927; also includes, for 1927 and
1929, data for sewing-machine cases, formerly a part of the “ Sewing machines, cases, and attachments”
industry.
1 The separation of the industry “ Paper and pulp” into the “ Paper” and “ Pulp (wood and other
2
fiber) ” industries in 1927 resulted in a duplication in the statistics as combined. The figures for 1927 are
therefore not strictly comparable with those for 1925 and earlier years.
1 Combined total for paper and pulp.
3
*4 Not reported separately; included with paper.
w Includes “ Compressed and liquefied gases” prior to 1927 and also includes “ Rayon” prior to 1925.
1 Included with “ Chemicals, not elsewhere classified/’ prior to 1927.
6
includes for all years “ Belting and hose, rubber,” prior to 1923 treated as a separate industry.
Not reported separately; included with “ Steel works and rolling mills.”
i®Combined figure for “ Blast furnaces” and “ Steel works and rolling mills.”
3 Similar products are manufactured to a large extent by plants operated in connection with steel works
0
and rolling mills. The figures here given refer only to establishments engaged primarily in the manufacture
of the specified classes of products.
2 Includes statistics for “ Horseshoes, not made in rolling mills,” abandoned as a separate industry.
1
» “ Tin plate and terneplate ” are treated as products of the “ Iron and steel, steel works, and rolling mills ”
Industry.
a Because of the establishment for 1929 of the new industry classification “ Machine-tool accessories; and
3
small metal-working tools,” certain establishments, formerly classified in this industry were, for 1929, clas
sified in the new industry. For this reason the statistics for 1929 are not comparable with those for earlier
years. The figures in italics for 1927 have been adjusted for comparison with 1929.
2 Formerly part of the classification “ Tin and other foils, not including gold and silver; collapsible tubes”
4
which has been separated into “ Tin and other foils, not including gold foil,” and “ Collapsible tubes.”
2 Formerly reported as three industries: “ Babbitt metal, white metal, type metal, and solder,” “ Brass,
5
bronze, and other nonferrous alloys, and manufactures of these alloys and of copper, not elsewhere classi
fied,” and “ Lead: Bar, pipe, and sheet.”
2 Refrigerators, mechanical, for censuses prior to 1927 included in “ Electrical machinery, apparatus, and
6
supplies” and “ Foundry and machine-shop products.”
2 “ Foundry and machine-shop products, not elsewhere classified,” includes “ Metal-working machinery,
7
other than machine tools, shown separately for 1925 and 1927. (See also footnote 26.)
2 For prior years included in data for “ Foundry and machine-shop products, not elsewhere classified,”
8
“ Machine tools,” and “ Tools, not including edge tools, machine tools, files, or saws.”
2 Sewing-machine cases, formerly considered a product of this industry, at the census for 1929 were in
0
cluded in the “ Furniture, including store and office fixtures ” industry (forest products group). The figures
for “ Sewing machines and attachments” for 1927 have been adjusted by omission of the data for sewing
machine eases, but those for prior years can not be so adjusted.
3 Typewriters and parts, prior to the census for 1929, covered typewriter supplies, but for 1929 a new in
0
dustry classification “ Carbon paper and inked ribbons” (miscellaneous industries group) was established.
The figures for 1927 have been adjusted by the omission of data for “ Carbon paper and inked ribbons,”
but no adjustment for earlier years can be made.

quantitative data are available are shown. See also chemicals (Table 763), petroleum refining (Table
736), manufactured gas (Table 725), etc. Semifinished products made for consumption in the same
establishment are not included, except where otherwise stated, but there is some duplication in total
value of products in certain branches, due to the use of such products as materials by other establish

COTTON MANUFACTURES
No. 7 7 4 .— COTTON SPINDIES, COTTON CONSUMPTION, AND STOCKS
N o t e .— The statistics fo r 1915 to 1931 relate to the 12 months ended July 31 and those for prior yearst o
the 12 months ended Aug. 31. South refers to cotton growing States. Consumption is expressed in
running bales, counting round as half bales, except that all figures, 1840 to 1870, inclusive, and foreign
cotton in all years are in equivalent 500-pound bales. The number of active spindles represents spindles

N ote .—All figures in thousands of pounds. Figures represent the equivalent in unstemmed leaf tobacco,
of stemmed leaf or scraps, cuttings, and clippings. In the following table the tobacco used in the manufac
ture of cigars and cigarettes was converted on the basis of 3 pounds of stemmed leaf or scraps, etc., to 4
pounds of unstemmed beginning 1915 (conversion prior to 1915 was at the ratio of 3 to 5) and of tobacco
and snuff beginning 1903. For 1896 to 1902, tobacco used in manufactured tobacco and snuff was shown
only under two heads, namely “ leaf” and “ scraps,” It is probable that stemmed leaf was included
with unstemmed tobacco under the head of “ leaf” without the one kind being converted to the equivalent
in the other. The conversion ratio of 3 to 4 was applied only to “ scraps” for these years. Data exclude
tobacco used in bonded manufacturing warehouses. See Table 781

No. 7 9 3 .— INDEXES OF VALUE OF SALES OF MAIL-ORDER HOUSES AND
5-AND-10-CENT CHAIN STORES 1
N o t e .— Indexes for mail-order houses cover two companies throughout.
The number of chain-store
companies reporting varied from year to year, but in computing the indexes adjustment has been made
for these variations. N o adjustment has been made, however, to eliminate the influence of increase in
the number of stores operated b y the individual companies, which accounts for a considerable part of
the increase in the indexes. In the monthly indexes allowance has been made for the varying number
of business days in the different months and for seasonal variations. Sales are much affected by changes
in price levels

* Figures do not include data for floor space for public works and utilities. Comparable data for floor
space by these territories are not available prior to the year 1929.
* Estimates made by the F. W . Dodge Corporation. Due to a change in the boundary line of 4 out of
the 8 territories shown previously to the year 1930 it was necessary to estimate the figures for portions of
the States now included with the new territories for comparability.

CONSTRUCTION
No. 7 9 8 .— BUILDING PERMITS ISSUED IN PRINCIPAL CITIES
N o t e . —Figures cover new buildings and repairs to old buildings, but exclude data for installation permits
(those for installing boilers, signs, etc,) which are not strictly building operations. These permits are
rather numerous, but in value they are of small amount. The number figures represent the number of
buildings covered by permits issued (new construction and repairs, etc.), rather than the number of
permits. The cities shown had a population of 50,000 or over in 1930. The estimated cost of new build
ings only, authorized in 257 identical cities since 1921 is as follows1 1921, $1,573,000,000; 1922, $2,489,000,000;
.
1923, $3,072,000,000; 1924, $3,208,000,000; 1925, $3,805,000,000; 1926, $3,557,000,000; 1927, $3,138,000,000; 1928,
$2,995,000,000; 1929, $2,580,000,000; 1930, $1,451,000,000; 1931, $1,049,000,000. Buildings authorized by per
mit are not always actually constructed, and the actual cost of those constructed may differ considerably
from that originally estimated

In the United States petroleum and its products are measured by bulk, not
weight. Whether handled in containers or without them the quantities are cus
tomarily reduced to the equivalent of barrels of 42 United States gallons (barrel
thus equals 158.984 liters). In many foreign countries these commodities are
measured by weight. The specific gravity of the different grades of crude petro
leum and of the finished products varies materially. ^ On the basis of approximate
averages the Department of Commerce in converting foreign weight statistics
to gallons or barrels of 42 gallons uses the factors shown in the following table:
