the BUSINESS SITUATION
J_ HE new year has started off with
employment, payrolls, and production
increasing at a rapid pace. The chief
stimulus to the advance in output is
coming from the acceleration in the
defense program and from further increases in plant and equipment investment. Consumer demand remains
buoyant under the influence of rising
income. The advance in production
continues to expand labor requirements
and to cut unemployment rolls;
in January, the unemployment rate
reached the administration's interim
goal of 4 percent. Pressure on prices
has been mlost noticeable in the farm
sector. In financial markets, the de-
mand for credit has been very active
and the cost of borrowed funds has
shown further sizable increases.
The rise in durable goods production
continues to exceed the overall advance
in output. In January, the durable
goods component of the Federal Reserve Board's index of industrial production showed another large increase, after
seasonal adjustment, as output rose in
a broad range of industries. The
month before, new orders received by
durable goods producers showed one of
the largest monthly gains in 1965. Increases in new business were widespread
and were especially large in primary
metals and transportation equipment
CHART 1
Average Weekly Hours of Production Workers in Manufacturing
In early 1966, weekly hours in durable goods manufacturing substantially exceeded
the earlier postwar peaks
other than motor vehicles. Although
shipments (seasonally adjusted) also
rose substantially in December, the
volume of new orders exceeded shipments in almost every major industry,
and backlogs grew by more than $1
billion, continuing the pattern of large
increases evident since last September.
Upward revision in GNP
The rise in business activity in January follows a fourth quarter increase in
GNP that was even larger than had
been indicated in the preliminary statistics published last month. According to estimates based on more complete
data, GNP in the final quarter of 1965
was at a seasonally adjusted annual
rate of $697 billion—a gain of $15.7
billion over the third quarter and an
upward revision of some $2% billion
over the preliminary fourth quarter
figure.
Most of the revision was attributable
to a higher rate of inventory investment. This change and an upward revision in consumption expenditures,
primarily in durable goods, were offset
in part by somewhat lower estimates
for Federal nondefense purchases and
net exports. The revised GNP figures
appear in the tables starting on page 14.

Investment in nonfarm inventories
rose $2 Jbillion in the final quarter of
1965 to a seasonally adjusted annual
rate of about $9 billion. The fourth
quarter rate was about as high as the
rate in the first quarter of 1965, when
the economy was recovering from the
strikes in the auto industry. Unlike
the earlier period, however, the fourth
quarter change in accumulation centered in nondurable goods, at both the
manufacturing and the retail levels.
1
SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS
The accumulation of durable goods inventories was less in the final quarter
than in the third, mainly because of the
liquidation of steel inventories by metal
fabricators.
Personal income up in January
Wage and salary disbursements increased $2 billion at a seasonally adjusted annual rate from December to
January as a result of rising payrolls in
manufacturing, private nonmanufacturing, and Government. The January
advance did not match the very large
monthly gains in the fourth quarter but
was about the same as the full-year 1965
average. Proprietors7 and property income, as a group, rose $0.7 billion, and
transfer payments increased $0.7 billion
as a result of increases in Social Security and other kinds of transfers. All
told, these types of personal income
were up $3.4 billion in January. Total
personal income, however, rose only $%
billion because of an unusually large
increase in personal contributions for
social insurance, a component that is
subtracted to arrive at .the personal
income total.
The step-up in personal contributions
for social insurance reflected the statutory increases in employee contributions
for social security, the increase in the
social security tax base for wages and
salaries from $4,800 to $6,600, and the
employee portion of the new tax on
payrolls for Medicare. All of these represent permanent increases in the level
of personal contributions.
Employment higher
Last month's advance in payrolls
reflected a seasonally adjusted rise in
nonfarm employment and further increases in rates of pay. Employment
in nonfarm establishments rose about
% million over December, with the
largest increases in durable goods manufacturing, retail trade, and State and
local government; except for construction, which declined slightly, most other
industry divisions showed small increases. Employment gains were widespread in durable goods manufacturing
and were accompanied by a pickup in
average weekly hours of work, which
were higher than at any other time in
the postwar period. In nondurable
goods industries, employment was up
only slightly and hours of work were a
little lower.
Rising employment in January
brought another decrease in unemployment and the unemployment rate, after
allowance for seasonal change. The
number of persons out of wort declined
to 3 million, and the unemployment
rate fell to 4 percent, the lowest since
early 1957.
Interest rates increase
The rise in business activity in
January has continued to stimulate
sizable demands for credit. Total commercial bank credit rose about $2%
billion, after seasonal adjustment, in
each month of the fourth quarter and
advanced another $3 billion in January.
The gains posted since last September
have been about one-fifth greater than
the average monthly increase for 1965,
which was a record year for bank credit
expansion. New business loans, which
were unusually large last year, apparently declined less than seasonally this
January.
January, like December, was a month
of widespread increases in interest rates.
Three-month Treasury bill rates advanqed to nearly 4.6 percent in January,
as compared with 4% percent in December and levels well under 4 percent
throughout most of 1965. Rates on
prime commercial paper and finance
company paper exceeded 4.8 percent
in January, up from 4.6 percent in
December.
The high level of rates in the current
period was forcefully illustrated by the
Treasury offering of new 5 percent and
4% percent medium-term notes in an
exchange at the end of January. The
former were the first Government issue
to carry such a yield since October 1959.
Long-term rates have also moved up
considerably this winter. The average
yield on long-term U.S. Government
bonds was 4.43 percent in both December and January, and by the end of
January had risen to 4.53 percent.
These levels are considerably higher
than those that prevailed in the summer
and fall of last year. Yields on corporate bonds ha\e shown a generally
similar movement. In early February,
February 1966
the FHA raised the maximum permissible interest rate on insured home
mortgages to 5K percent from 5%
percent.
Rise in farm and food prices
The BLS wholesale price index
showed a further increase in January,
after a rather sizable gain in December. Prices for farm products and
processed foods again led the advance
with a rise of 1 percent over December;
increases for a wide variety of industrial
commodities raised the index of industrial prices.
Among agricultural products, the
prolonged upswing in cattle and hog
prices extended through January. Vegetable prices also rose in January, and
promised to show a further rise this
month because of freezing weather in
some important growing areas.
Industrial commodity prices advanced 0.3 percent in January. The
rapid turnaround in steel output this
winter lifted demand for scrap metal
and led to sharply higher quotations for
iron and steel scrap. Prices of structural steel were increased at the beginning of the year but were offset in part
by a cut in prices for steel sheets at
west coast locations. Cattlehide prices
continued to respond to the very high
level of export demand, as well as
increased domestic use. Other price
advances occurred in nonferrous scrap,
copper products, crude rubber, lumber,
gypsum products, machinery, and manufactured animal feeds.

uary operations yielded an output of
about 10.6 million ingot tons, an increase of about 33 percent over the
December total, after seasonal adjustment; reports for early February suggest a continuation of the upward trend.
Since November, the advance in iron
and steel output has so far amounted to
well over 10 percent. It is interesting
to note that after the cutbacks in mill
operations that came in the wake of the
labor contract settlements in 1962 and
1963, production remained on a plateau
for several months before showing a
noticeable pickup.
The rise in output over the past 2
months or so has been mainly in response to the increase in new orders for
steel, which have been advancing since
early fall and which in December exceeded shipments for the first time in 10
months. Orders have been increasing
because steel consumption is very
strong, and orders are more in line with
consumption now that a growing number of steel users have reduced their
previously heavy steel inventories to
desired levels. Mills are not only producing against these orders but are also
building up their own rather depleted
stocks in anticipation of a continued
improvement in demand.
Rising production in metal fabricating industries and expanding outlays
for nonresidential construction have increased steel consumption. Prospects
appear favorable for further advances
in steel usage in the near term because
business expenditures for new plant and
equipment are scheduled to expand, defense requirements are rising, and the
outlook for the automobile industry
points to a continued high level of
output.
Last year, according to trade estimates, consumption of steel by all
industries totaled a record 93 million
tons. According to Census data, the
use of steel in manufacturing alone was
about 67 million tons; this was 10
percent more than in 1964 and the
largest year-to-year gain in the 196165 expansion.
Consumer stocks decline
Manufacturing consumers have made
very good progress in cutting down their

Federal Programs for Fiscal 1967
J\S reflected in the fiscal 1967 budget
presented to Congress in January, Federal fiscal policy in the months ahead
is not expected to provide further stimulus to a booming economy that is already feeling the impact of the Vietnam
war. This is in contrast to the last 5
years, when fiscal policy was deliberately expansionary.
The outlook in early 1966 is for rising
defense outlays, strong investment demand, and continued buoyancy of consumer spending. Since the increase in
military spending occurs at a time of
high employment and high rates of
capacity utilization, the budget calls
for several measures designed to moderate the growth in the private sector.
New tax proposals—such as the speedup
in collections of corporate and individual income taxes and the temporary
restoration of certain excise taxes—will
boost revenues sharply in the period
immediately ahead. On the expenditure side, the expansion of important
new civilian programs has been slowed
down, and older, lower priority activities have been reduced or eliminated.
The budget estimates assume that
GNP in calendar 1966 will total $722
billion, an increase of approximately 7
percent, somewhat less than the 1965
advance. Personal income is estimated
at $567 billion, $36 billion more than
in the previous year, while1 corporate
profits before taxes are estimated to
rise $5^ billion to $80 billion.
The current fiscal program embodies
a flexibility that reflects uncertainties
about both defense requirements and
private demand. If the pace of economic activity differs significantly from
that currently expected, the administration may propose either more restrictive or more stimulative measures.
If greater fiscal restraint is called for,
the President has indicated that he will
not hesitate to call for tax increases;
the current proposals regarding personal and corporate taxes, it should be
noted, temporarily accelerate tax payments, but do not change tax liabilities.
On the other hand, an end to the
Vietnam conflict could provide the opportunity for tax reduction or increased
expenditures on many high priority
Federal civilian programs now limited
by defense needs.
Gap between expenditures and
receipts to narrow
The movement toward a closer balance of receipts and expenditures from
fiscal 1966 to fiscal 1967 is evident in the
administrative and cash budgets as well

as in the national income and product
accounts (NIPA) budget; they are
projected to move toward either a
smaller deficit or a suiplus position.
Expectations are for the deficit in the
administrative budget to decline $4K
billion to $1% billion and the NIPA
deficit to drop $1% billion to $% billion;
the cash budget is expected to shift
from an estimated $7 billion deficit in
1966 to a $K billion surplus, the first
cash surplus since fiscal 1960. Summary data for the three budgets are
shown in table 1.
Federal receipts are expected to expand rapidly under all three budget
concepts. Administrative budget revenues are projected to rise by $11 billion,
cash receipts from the public by more
than $17 billion, and NIPA receipts by
$13% billion. Revenues will increase
more rapidly in the cash and NIPA
budgets than in the administrative
budget because the administrative
budget excludes social security taxes,
which were increased January 1, 1966,
and are scheduled to rise further
January 1, 1967. Cash receipts outpace NIPA revenues mainly because
only the former are affected by the
proposed acceleration of corporate tax
payments.
Expenditures rise in all three budgets.
The administrative budget increases
$6% billion; cash outlays $10 billion;
and NIPA budget outlays $11% billion.
The increase is greatest in the NIPA
budget because it is not affected by
financial transactions. A major increase in the sale of financial assets is
an important factor in limiting the rise
of expenditures in the other two
budgets.
Outlook for remainder of fiscal 1966
The NIPA budget receipts and expenditures by major component are
February 1966
presented in table 2 for the fiscal years
1965-67 along with quarterly data for
calendar 1965.
Total receipts are projected to show a
substantial increase in the first half of
calendar 1966, reflecting chiefly the
big jump in social security taxes that
went into effect January 1. In addition, personal and corporate income
taxes are expected to continue their
uptrend, reflecting the anticipated
growth in personal income and corporate profits. Indirect business taxes
should fall sharply in the first quarter
as a result of the second stage of the
excise cut, but will rebound in the second
quarter if Congress acts by April 1 to
restore the cuts in automobile and
telephone excise tax rates to preJanuaiy levels, as is assumed in the
budget. On the expenditure side, the
defense buildup is expected to proceed
rapidly in the first half of 1966. New
programs affecting education and poverty grants and personal transfers will
also boost expenditures in this period.
On balance, the expected increase in
expenditures in the first 6 months of
this year will not quite match the large
revenue rise. Consequently, the deficit
is expected to be reduced about $%
billion below the rate in the last half
of 1965.
The Three Federal Budget
Measures
The three Federal budget measures
differ in coverage, in timing, and in the
treatment of financial transactions.
The administrative budget, which serves
as the basis of recommended legislative
action, excludes trust fund operations,
which have grown rapidly in recent
years. Several important parts of the
Government's program, such as social
security, federally aided highways, and
unemployment insurance are carried
out through trust funds.
The consolidated cash statement, or
cash budget, includes the receipts and
expenditures of trust funds as well as
the general fund, and provides a more
complete picture of the flow of cash
transactions (excluding borrowing) between the Federal Government and
the public.
SUEVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS
The NIPA budget is generally considered to be best suited for analysis of
fiscal policy. It counts most taxes as
receipts when the liability is incurred
rather than when the Government
actually receives payment. On the
expenditure side, the NIPA budget

Expenditures, Fiscal 1965-67
receipts by $3.2 billion in fiscal 1967.
For certain other sources of revenuesuch as personal income taxes and
social insurance contributions—accruals
would still exceed collections. However, because of the large speedup incorporate payments, the increase in
cash receipts is expected to exceed the
increase in NIPA receipts by about $4
billion in fiscal 1967.

attempts to synchronize Federal purchases with the sales of other sectors of
the economy. As a result, purchases of
many goods, chiefly military hardware,
are counted at the time of delivery
rather than at the time of cash
disbursement.
Another major difference between the
cash and the NIPA budgets is that the
latter excludes loans and loan repayments. Lending transactions, like borrowing transactions, are excluded because they represent the exchange of
one kind of financial instrument for another. Table 3 presents a detailed
reconciliation of the three budgets.
In years of rapidly rising incomes,
tax collections normally lag behind
accruals. However, the reverse is expected for fiscal 1967, principally because of the speedup of corporate tax
collections. The President has proposed that corporations with tax liabilities of more than $100,000 go on a
quarterly, pay-as-you-go basis in 1967,
instead of in 1970, as called for in the
Revenue Act of 1964. If enacted, this
proposal would accelerate cash budget
Net lending to decline
The rise in cash budget expenditures,
on the other hand, is expected to be
$1% billion less than that in the NIPA
budget from fiscal 1966 to fiscal 1967,
as a consequence of the substantial
reduction in net outlays of Federal
lending programs. Financial transactions of this type decrease cash
payments but have no effect on expenditures in the national income and product accounts. The projected drop in
net lending is expected to be achieved
by broadening the pool of Government
loans for which "participation certificates" can be sold. In recent years,
the Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) and the Veterans'
Administration (VA) have pooled their

The current budget proposal asks Congress for authority to set up a new
grouping of Government loans that
would include those held by the Small
Business Administration and the
Farmers Home Administration; these
loans could then be sold in a manner
similar to those owned by FNMA and
VA. In other programs—such as the
student loan program—the Government is seeking to guarantee payment
rather than making direct loans.
In the defense area, it is expected
that cash outlays will rise more rapidly
than NIPA purchases in fiscal 1966 and
1967. Purchases of military hard goods
in the NIPA budget are based on
deliveries, which in a period of rapidly
rising expenditures tend to lag considerably behind cash payments made
for work in progress. In addition;
projected increases in the sales of surplus materials from Federal stockpiles,
netted against purchases in the NIPA
budget, are generally treated as receipts
in the cash budget.

Fiscal 1967 Receipts
Federal receipts in fiscal 1967 under
the NIPA budget are estimated to
exceed $142 billion—a record increase
of $13K billion over expected fiscal
1966 revenues.
Personal tax payments make up
about $5K billion of the increase.
The marked advance—from $531 billion
to $567 billion—expected in personal
income and an even faster rate of increase in tax liabilities, attributable
largely to the shift of individuals to
higher tax brackets, are the main
reasons for the sharp rise.
In. recent years, withholding rates
have been uniform for all levels of
income. In the new budget, the President has proposed to substitute six
graduated withholding rates, ranging
from 14 percent to 30 percent, for the
present flat 14 percent rate. The new
schedule, if adopted, would reduce the
underwithholding that results in deferred payment of some taxes, notably
for those persons with above average
incomes, whose withheld taxes are
often too small to match their tax
liabilities. The proposal to graduate
withholding rates would increase receipts about •$.% billion in fiscal 1967;
withheld taxes would run about $1%
billion higher and net final settlements
approximately $% billion lower.
Corporate profits before taxes are
projected to rise to a record $80 billion
in calendar 1966 according to the
budget, an increase of $5 billion, as
compared to a $10 billion rise last year.
In line with the profit assumptions,
corporate tax accruals are estimated
to increase over $1% billion in fiscal
1967.
Excise cuts deferred
Indirect business tax accruals are
estimated to rise more than $K billion
in fiscal 1967, in contrast to the expected decline of nearly $1 billion from
fiscal 1965 to fiscal 1966, when there
were two large excise cuts. The fiscal
1967 projection,assumes that early in
calendar 1966 the automobile and
telephone and teletypewriter excise tax
rates will be restored to levels in effect
before January 1, 1966, and that the
excise cuts on autos and telephone
service originally scheduled for January 1, 1967, will be postponed for 2
years. In addition, increased user
charges, principally on trucks and air
travel, are proposed for fiscal 1967.
Social insurance contributions are
expected to rise over $5^4 billion in the
next fiscal year. Fiscal 1967 is the first
full year under the expanded tax base
that became effective January 1, 1966,
and will also reflect increases in social
security tax rates effective January 1,
1966, and January 1, 1967. This year

Fiscal 1967 Expenditures
Federal expenditures under the NTPA
budget in fiscal 1967 are expected to
rise $11% billion over the preceding
year, or somewhat less than receipts.
Expanding defense purchases, medicare
payments, and education and poverty
programs account for the bulk of the
increase.
Purchases of goods and services for

operations and maintenance needs associated with a projected 400,000-man
increase in the size of the Armed Forces

for operations and maintenance will also
reflect higher civilian personnel costs
resulting from a scheduled rise of 79,000
in Defense Department employment
from fiscal 1966 tofiscal1967.
Procurement of major military equipment will account for an important
share of the increase in defense purchases and will emphasize conventional
weaponry. Current plans call for heavy
purchases of aircraft—helicopters and
transport and tactical planes. Naval
procurement will center on antisubmarine warfare, fleet support, and air

defense of our carrier forces. Expenditures for military vehicles and nonnuclear ordnance will also be stepped
up. Funding for strategic retaliatory
forces—including long range missiles,
bombers, and Polaris submarines—will
remain essentially unchanged in 1967.
Outlays for other defense functions,
such as research and development, military construction, family housing, and
civil defense, are unchanged in the
aggregate. Table 4 provides a detailed
breakdown of Defense Department
military expenditures in the administrative budget.
Atomic energy outlays will be down
slightly, continuing the trend of recent
years. Most of the decline can. be
attributed to a drop in procurement of

uranium concentrates and lower production of nuclear weapons and materials.
Nondefense purchases little changed
Federal nondef ense purchases are estimated just under $18 billion in fiscal
1967, only slightly above the level projected for fiscal 1966. A sharp decline in
outlays for agriculture, plus a drop in
expenditures for space exploration nearly offset increases for education, health,
social security, and the war on poverty.
Employment in nondef ense agencies
(excluding the Post Office) is scheduled
to rise about 25,000 in 1967, somewhat
more than the estimated increase in
fiscal 1966.
Over half of the rise can
be attributed to new legislation for
hospital insurance for the elderly, and
aid to education.
The anticipated $K billion decrease
in space expenditures represents the
first decline in outlays by the National
Aeronautics and Space Administration
(NASA) since the agency was established in 1958. However, the new
NASA budget would still provide for
the costs of an expedition to the moon
before the end of 1969, according to
agency officials. Over two-thirds of the
1967 expenditures will be devoted to
manned space flight activities. In 1967,
the Saturn V rocket, 16 times more
powerful than U.S. rockets currently in
use, will be launched for the first time.
Other Federal Expenditures
Government expenditures, in addition
to influencing GNP directly through
the purchases of goods and services,
contribute to aggregate demand indirectly through various other types of
outlays such as grants-in-aid, transfers,
net interest payments, and subsidies.
Grants-in-aid ordinarily help finance
State and local programs, such as highway construction; the other types of
expenditures increase private incomes
and thus stimulate personal consumption and business investment.
Expenditures other than those for
purchases of goods and services are
estimated to rise by $8 billion in fiscal
#; 1967. This is $!}£ billion more than

Medicare benefits begin
Medical benefits—scheduled to begin
July 1, 1966—account for about $3%
billion of the projected $5 billion
increase in transfer payments.
About $2% billion will go for the new
hospital insurance program which covers nearly all of the 19 million persons
now 65 years and over, including about
2 million persons not presently covered
by social security or railroad retirement
programs. This program makes provision for all ordinary hospital services
up to 90 days for each illness; the
patient pays for the first $40 of his
hospital bill, and $10 per day after the
first 60 days. In addition, the program
provides for posthospital nursing home
care and diagnostic services offered at
the hospital on an out-patient basis.
After leaving the hospital, the patient
could get up to 100 visits by nurses,
therapists, or other medical aides.
This portion of the medicare program
is financed by a special payroll tax
that went into effect last month, and
by a Federal appropriation for those
not under social security.
Additional transfers, nearly $1 billion,
are provided for the supplementary
medical insurance program, which provides coverage, after a $50 deductible,
for 80 percent of the doctor bills,

from employment gains. In contrast,
both factors contributed to the rapid
expansion of employment in the Far
West.
The result of the industrial mix and
regional share influences was that four
regions (New England, Mideast, Plains,
and Southeast) ended each decade with
a smaller portion of the Nation's total
employment, while three (Rocky Mountain, Southwest, and Far West) acquired a larger share. The share of the
Great Lakes region first increased and
then decreased.
Charting the elements of change
An advantage of the technique used
in constructing the tables is that whether
the three change components are computed directly for a given region or
whether they are summed from the
computed components for its subareas,
the results are identical. This additivity industry by industry through all
levels of geographic area grouping may
also be illustrated graphically as in
chart 8. The upper panel of the chart
refers to the period 1940-50 and the
lower panel refers to the period 1950-60.
Points to the right and left of the vertical axis in each panel represent positive
and negative regional-share components, and points above and below the
horizontal axis represent positive and
negative industrial mix components
respectively. The intersection of the
two major axis is a reference point (at
zero, zero) that would represent a
region with zero regional share and zero
industrial mix components. The area
used as a standard-of-growth reference
(in the present publications series, the
United States) is always represented by
this point.
In addition to the basic reference
point, there are points (tips of arrows)
in chart 8 for each of the eight regional
divisions of the Nation. Each regional
point conveys three of the analytical
concepts defined above. For example,
the point corresponding to New England for the period 1940 to 1950 shows
that the total regional-share component
is negative (—440.1 thousand) and that
the total industrial-mix component is
positive (225.2 thousand). As explained below, the sum of these two, the
total net relative change (—214.9 thou-
SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESSsand) also can be found as a measurable
distance on the chart.
In addition to the main axes, chart 8
contains two sloping 45-degree lines.
The line sloping upward from left to
right (labeled F-I-B) connects points
where the regional-share component is
equal to the industrial mix component.
The line sloping downward from left to
right (labeled D-I-H) locates- points
where the absolute values of share and
11
mix components are equal but of
opposite sign. Points on the latter line
would represent regions whose net relative change is zero. Thus, points above
and to the right of this line have positive
net relative changes while those below
and to the left have negative net relative changes. Also, for any geographical area the horizontal (or vertical)
distance of a point from the D-I-H
line is a measure of the total net relative

change for the area. For example, the
net relative change for the Far West in
the 1940-50 period (upper panel, chart
8) is represented by a horizontal dotted
line with a length extending 1,091.1
thousand to the right of (that is, in a
positive direction from) the D-I-H line.
The exact position of a particular
area can be indicated only by complete
specification of its regional share and
industrial mix coordinates as in chart 8.
For many purposes, however, such detailed information is not needed.
Instead, a region can be classified into
one of a limited number of categories
related to its general growth pattern.
This is the purpose of the single digit
codes shown in columns I and O of
SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS
tables 1 and 2 for the period 1940-50
and 1950-60, respectively. As indicated in chart 8, every major regional
point lies in one of eight designated
divisions (octants). If a point falls on
a dividing line, the assigned code is the
letter identifying the line. Letter designations do not happen to occur for
any of the eight major regions in
chart 8. However, the Nation itself
(as the reference region) is represented
by a point common to all the dividing
lines and the code letter for this point
is "I."
Experience has shown the octant
codes to be useful shorthand expressions
for quickly noting the major characteristics of an area's employment growth
pattern.
Total Net Relative Change in Employment by
Counties, New England Region, 1950-60
Key:
U.S. Department of Commerce, Office of Business Economics
February 1966
Maps summarize growth patterns
The foregoing octant system obviously can be shown in systematically
shaded maps. Chart 9 is such a map
for the period 1950-60 for New England
and the Mideast regions combined.
This map area includes eleven States
and the District of Columbia. The
States, in turn, comprise 244 counties.
The shading key in chart 9 suggests
a general relationship between the
strength of an area's total net relative
change in employment and its octant.
Those areas whose total net relative
change in employment—expressed as
a percent of base year employment—
was strongest tend to fall in octants
1 and 2. Those with the largest declines
tend to appear in octants 7 and 8.
CHART 9 Areas with moderate gains fall in
octants 3 and 4 and those with moderate losses in 5 and 6. In the case of
the eight regions of the United States,
as presented in table 2, the relationship
holds without exception both for the
1940V and the 1950's. If the same
test is applied to successively smaller
areas, some blurring of the relationship
occurs. That is, there are some counties whose position in the four groups
of octants in chart 9 is inconsistent
with the strength of their employment
change. These, however, are exceptions to a generally valid relationship.
The map illustrates the inadequacy
of broad generalizations based on
national, regional, and even State data.
Table 2 has shown that the portions of
the Nation's employment located in
New England and in the Mideast
decreased in the period 1950-60. But
within New England, both New Hampshire's and Connecticut's portions of
the Nation's total increased, and within
the Mideast, similar increases occurred
in New Jersey, Delaware, and Maryland.
As indicated by the map, employment growth performance also varied
greatly within States. Although PennTotal Net Relative Change, 1950-1960
sylvania experienced a net relative loss,
12 of its counties had net relative gains.

will depend in part upon the level of
industrial detail (within a given total)
under analysis. However, changes in
these two components, induced by
changes in the degree of industrial
detail, are equal in absolute value and
of opposite sign for every area under
analysis. It follows that their sum, the
total net relative change, is unaffected
by any such changes for any given area.
A downward sloping dotted line in the

Computations for contract construction:

= 37.8 thousand
Industrial mix component (table 1, Col.
E) (141.6) (0.67139-0.26664=0.40475)
= 57.3 thousand
Regional share component (table 1, Col. F)
(141.6) (0.42894-0.67139= -0.24245)
= -34.3 thousand
Total change (sum of Cols. D, E and F)
(table 1, Col. G)
'= 60.7 thousand
Net relative change 1940-50 (sum of Cols.
E and F, not shown in table 1)
= 23.0 thousand
Thus, the change in New England's
contract construction employment was
23.0 thousand in excess of what would
have occurred at the overall national
rate for all industries combined.
The results for New England's overall employment growth from 1940 to
1950 are presented in the "Total"'line
at the bottom of the table. In this line,
the entries are the simple algebraic sums
of the corresponding entries for the
separate industries. In rounded form
they are:

It is apparent that in April of 1950
New England would have needed an

account for the same percent of the
Nation's total that it represented in
April of 1940.

prevailed while the labor negotiations

1965. The 4-million-ton reduction in

collect these figures more than 4 years
ago—brought yearend inventories to
13.1 million tons, the lowest level since
February 1965. At the end of 1965,
stocks of manufacturing consumers
represented 51 days of supply at the
December rate of consumption. Last
August, at the peak of the inventory
buildup, the corresponding figure was
74 days. None of the above data have
been adjusted for seasonal influences.
How much more consumers will reduce their current steel inventories is by
no means clear at the present time. In
the first three quarters of 1964, prior to
the stockpiling in anticipation of a
possible strike in the spring of 1965,
manufacturing consumers maintained
a 40-day supply. It is not certain,
however, that in the current setting
steel consumers will cut back quite so
far. With demand strong and production delays more frequent, they may
Steel imports at new high
Because of the unusually strong
domestic demand for steel last year,
imports rose considerably while exports
declined. In this respect, last year's
experience was a repetition of 1962 and
1963, when hedge buying against the
possibility of a strike was a dominant
feature in steel markets.
In 1965, imports of steel increased to
10.4 million tons—the highest on
record—from 6.4 million in 1964, while
exports declined to 2.5 million from
the 3.4 million total of 1964 (chart 3).
The inflow of steel was exceptionally
large during most of 1965, reaching
more than 12 million tons at an annual
rate in the second quarter before falling
gradually to 10 million tons in the
October-December period. In contrast, exports remained relatively low,
though some pickup occurred in the
final quarter of the year.
Last year was the seventh consecutive year in which the United
States was a net purchaser of steel.
The 1965 import balance of 7.9 million
tons was by far the largest ever reported, more than 2% times net imports
in 1964. In the second quarter of 1965,
the excess of imports over exports
amounted to 10 million tons at an
annual rate; the gap, however,
narrowed considerably thereafter.
Imports of all of the principal steel
product groups increased in 1965. The
largest gains were in sheet and strip,
which nearly tripled, and in structural
shapes and plates, which scored a 60
percent gain. Imports of sheet and
strip have shown a strong uptrend in
recent years, from less than 200,000
tons in 1961 to well over 3.5 million in
1965; their share of total steel imports
over this period rose from 5 percent to
approximately one-third. This increased domestic use of imported sheet
and strip reflects in part rising demand
from the motor vehicle industry. It
also reflects the growing capacity of
foreign countries to produce a wide
range of steel products and the ability
of steel producers abroad to compete in
the U.S. market.

those developed in October 1965 from
the new sample, it was assumed that the
differences in store classifications between 1958 and 1963 occurred gradually
over the period, and that the classification changes, which affect the sales and
inventories of the various lines of trade,
are offsetting in the aggregates.
For establishments that were retained
in the new sample but whose classifications were changed, September 1965
sales data were used to develop overlap
ratios for each line of trade. These
ratios were applied in full to the
previous monthly estimates from
December 1963 through September
1965, and in decreasing . proportions
going backwards from November 1963
to January 1959. Fifty-nine sixtieths
of the overlap ratios were applied in
November 1963, fifty-eight sixtieths in
October 1963, and so on, until January
1959, when one-sixtieth was reached.
It should be noted that the overlap
ratios for sales were also applied to
inventories. The panel of stores in the
inventory sample has not been changed.
