the BUSINESS SITUATION
The recent past has been marked by a
rather abrupt reversal of the course of
interest rates. After declining precipitously from the highs reached last spring
and summer, short-term rates turned
around in March and had increased
one-half to three-fourths percentage
point by early May. Rates have also
been increasing in long-term markets,
where the declines registered earlier
this year have been essentially erased.
Corporate profits rebounded sharply
in the first quarter, mainly because of
recovery from the effects of the auto
strike. The profits rebound was an
important factor in the decline of the
Federal deficit on the NIA basis.
The Business Situation article also
reviews recent trends in construction
activity, auto demand, and consumer
installment credit.
J. HE recent past has been marked by
a rather abrupt reversal of the course of
interest rates. After declining by as
much as 4 or 5 percentage points from
the highs reached in the late spring and
early summer last year, short-term
interest rates turned around in March
and had increased one-half to threefourths of a percentage point by early
May. Despite ongoing weakness in
business loan demand, this shift in
money market rates carried through to
the prime rate, which was raised from
5% to 5% percent in the latter part of
April. This was the first prime rate
increase in nearly 2 years and followed
10 consecutive reductions, starting in
March 1970, which had brought the
rate down from a record 8% percent.
Kates have also been increasing in
long-term markets, and by early May
the declines registered earlier this year
had been essentially erased. To some
extent the rate increases in capital markets reflected the recent unusually
heavy volume of new corporate security
issues. As part of their efforts to rebuild
liquidity, corporations have been borrowing heavily in capital markets and
using the funds to repay short-term
debt. The gross proceeds from new
corporate issues in the final 3 months of
last year averaged $4 billion (a record at
the^time), fell off to about $3 billion in
January and February this year, and
surged to an estimated $6 billion in
March.
The recent reversal in interest rates
also reflects a somewhat less accomodative monetary policy. This has emerged
partly as a reaction to the recent rapid
growth of the monetary aggregates.
The Federal Keserve has been aggressively promoting money and credit
expansion since last summer, though
the impact of stimulative policy was not
evident in the money supply and some
of the other major aggregates until the
early months of this year. In the fourth
quarter of last year, when economic
activity was depressed by the auto strike,
demands for money and credit were very
weak and the money supply (currency
and private demand deposits) recorded
a very sluggish growth of only %%
percent (pnnual rate). After the turn of
the year, when activity accelerated,
transactions demand for money strengthened and money supply growth soared
to a 9-percent rate in the 4 months
ending in April. This is out of line with
the 6 percent growth rate in the first
9 months of last year, and with the
target range of 5 to 6 percent that the
monetary authorities apparently believe
isx consistent with the resumption of
baiajiced economic growth.
Another important consideration in
the recent formulation of monetary
policy has been the heavy rate of shortterm capital outflows from the United
States, which heightened concern over
the strength of the dollar in international markets. As a result of the
precipitous decline of short-term interest rates in this country—and in the
Eurodollar market, which is closely
related to domestic money market
conditions—wide international interest
rate differentials developed, which stimulated huge liquid capital outflows. The
shift away from dollar holdings into
other currencies led to a large accumulation of dollars by foreign official
agencies and seriously impaired the
pursuit of tight monetary policies in
some foreign countries (most notably
West Germany). In terms of the U.S.
balance of payments, that accumulation has been reflected in the huge
deficits on the official reserve transactions basis in recent quarters.
The U.S. authorities probably expected that a somewhat less accomodative monetary policy would also help
to stem liquid capital outflows and
mitigate pressures on the dollar in
international
markets.
Moreover,
because unusually large differentials
persisted between short- and long-term
rates in the United States, there was
reason to believe that some firming of
short rates could have been accomplished without transmitting pressures
to long-term rates, and might even have
been consistent with some easing in the
long-term structure—a repetition of
what had in the past been called
"Operation Twist.7'
As it turned out, however, the rise
in interest rates in the United States
did not succeed in relieving the pressures on the dollar in international
markets. In early May, a round of
adjustments began which has resulted,
•SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS
to date, in the West German mark and
the Dutch guilder being set free to
float in relation to the dollar and the
Swiss franc and the Austrian schilling
being revalued upward.
The recent modest firming in U.S.
money and credit market conditions
came at a time of significant uncertainty on the part of market participants, many of whom apparently
overestimated the significance of the
economy's first quarter expansion.
When interest rates began to move up,
an important part of the financial
community interpreted this as pointing
to a rising demand for credit, a return
of liquidity pressures, and higher interest rates in the future. Consequently,
the volume of bond and note activity
was swelled by borrowers who believed
that the lows in interest rates had
passed and that borrowing would become increasingly costly in the future.
At the same time, expectations of
rising interest rates made lenders more
reluctant to commit themselves to
long-term obligations.
Employment and income in April
The April employment data show
no significant changes from the conditions prevailing in recent months. All
of the major indicators of the employment situation have been essentially
unchanged since December, when the
unemployment rate reached its recent
high of 6.2 percent. The civilian labor
force and total employment rose somewhat in April and the unemployment
rate edged up from 6.0 to 6.1 percent.
The rates for most labor force subgroups also showed little change. The
only exceptions were sizable increases
for part-time workers (to 9.4 percent)
and for Negro workers (to 10.0 percent), but these series are subject to
large fluctuations due to sampling
errors.
Nonagricultural payroll employment
increased slightly—by less than 60,000
persons—in April. The gain would have
been even smaller had it not been for
a net reduction of 35,000 in the number
of workers on strike. The employment
gain centered in construction and State
and local government, as the number
of workers on manufacturing payrolls
continued to decline. The average
workweek for all private workers increased a bit even though the manufacturing workweek shrank slightly
after a sizable increase in March.
Personal income rose $4% billion in
April to a seasonally adjusted annual
rate of $841% billion. The April increase
was about the same as the average for
the preceding 2 months. There was a
moderate but fairly broadly based increase in payrolls. The largest increase
was $1 billion in the distributive industries. Manufacturing payrolls were unchanged, as substantial gains in hourly
earnings were offset by declines in
employment and the average workweek.
Another large increase was registered
for transfer payments, which reached
$89 billion or 11 percent of total personal income. The relatively rapid
increase in transfer payments in recent
months has not been centered in eny
single component but reflects gains in
all major categories—social insurance
benefits, unemployment insurance, veteran's benefits, and relief. In the first
4 months of 1971, transfers were 18
percent above their level a year earlier
while total personal income was up
only 6 percent.
Corporate profits higher
Corporate profits rebounded very
substantially in the first quarter of 1971,
according to OBE's preliminary estimate. The improvement largely reflected a makeup of production and sales
lost as a result of the GM strike. The
motor vehicle industry alone accounted
for approximately 70 percent of the
growth in profits. In both absolute and
relative terms, the quarter's gain in
total profits was the strongest since the
first quarter of 1965, when the economy
was recovering from the effects of
strikes at GM and Ford.
Book profits before tax were at a
seasonally adjusted annual rate of $86%
billion in the first quarter, up $10 billion from the fourth, but still $7 billion
below the record set in the second
quarter of 1969. The $10 billion increase
is a sharp turnaround from the $8 bil-
May 1971
lion decrease in the last quarter of 1970.
Profits tax liability increased $4 billion,
after tax earnings $6 billion, and retained earnings (after dividends) $5.4
billion.
Book profits include gains or losses
due to differences between the replacement cost of goods taken out of inventory and the cost at which they are
charged to production. These gains or
losses are excluded from the estimate of
the profits share of national income. Inventory profits rose $0.7 billion from
the fourth quarter to the first and
profits on the national income basis increased $9% billion to an annual rate
of $82% billion.
The proposed liberalization of the depreciation rules used in calculating taxable income, announced in January, had
not as yet gone into effect when the
SURVEY went to press. Thus, the liberalizations had no effect on first quarter
profits and depreciation as estimated
by OBE. However, the changes, if and
when promulgated, are expected to be
retroactive to the beginning of the year
and it will therefore be necessary for
OBE to review the estimates of first
quarter profits and depreciation. The
effect of the regulation change would be
to increase depreciation allowances and
cash flow and reduce profits.
Federal deficit shrinks
The strong rebound of economic activity in the first quarter worked to increase Federal receipts and reduce the
Federal deficit on the NIA basis. The
deficit was $13% billion at an annual
rate, down $5-billion from the fourth
quarter figure.
Receipts were up $9 billion—the
largest rise in 2 years—largely because
of the rebound in profits and auto sales
in the wake of the GM strike settlement. Corporate tax liabilities rose very
strongly despite the elimination of the
surcharge. The effect of other tax
changes, including an increase in social
security contribution rates and cuts in
income tax rates due to the Tax Reform
Act of 1969, were largely offsetting.
Federal expenditures rose more than
$4 billion, to an annual rate of $214
billion. The increase centered in transfer payments and grants-in-aid; pur-
May 1971
chases of goods and services were up
only slightly despite a $2% billion pay
raise. Defense purchases, excluding the
impact of the pay raise, fell nearly $2%
billion at an annual rate.
Another deficit, probably larger than
that in the first quarter, will be recorded
in the current quarter. Expenditures
will advance rapidly, despite a continued decline in defense spending. In particular, social security benefits will be
increased 10 percent in June retroactive
to January 1. Other transfers and grants
also are expected to increase, although
subsidies (net of the current surplus of
government enterprises) will fall, largely
because of the higher postal rates effective in mid-May. Receipts will rise,
but at a slower pace than in the first
quarter.
GNP revisions
On the basis of more complete source
data, OBE has revised the estimate of
first quarter GNP. Most major demand
components were affected by the revisions, but the changes were generally
small. The aggregate effect was to raise
GNP about $2% billion above the preliminary figures. The estimates of consumption spending, especially for durable goods other than automobiles, were
revised up while the disposable income
estimate was barely changed. Thus the
saving rate is now calculated to have
been 7.0 percent rather than 7.2 percent. The implicit price deflator was
little affected by the revisions. Real
GNP is now estimated to have risen at
an annual rate of about 7 percent.
Construction Trends
The total of public and private
construction spending passed $100 billion in January, at a seasonally adjusted
annual rate. There was a large gain in
February, but preliminary figures for
March indicate a decline due to drops
in outlays for public construction and
for some types of privately owned
buildings. Nevertheless, the current
recovery seems broadly based and
further expansion in many categories
is virtually certain.
Spending for nonfarm residential
construction currently accounts for
about half of the private total. (Farm
SUKVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS
residential construction, which is reported together with other farm construction, is of very modest volume.)
The importance of homebuilding means
that its swings, which have been severe
in the past few years, have been a
major factor underlying the swings in
the private total (chart 1). The sum
of all other types of private construction has expanded relatively smoothly
in the 1960's, interrupted by periods of
approximate stability during the economic slowdowns of 1966-67 and 1970.
Residential outlays dropped from
$32% billion (seasonally adjusted annual rate) in the second quarter of 1969
to $27% billion in the third quarter of
1970. The very steep increase in the
past two quarters .carried outlays to a
rate of $35% billion.
Movements in outlays of course reflect movements in new housing starts,
with swings in spending lagging somewhat behind swings in starts. The low
in the starts rate was reached in early
1970, after a decline that persisted
throughout 1969. The recovery since
then has been strong and quite smooth;
starts averaged a seasonally adjusted
annual rate of 1.79 million units in the
first quarter, compared with 1.25 million 1 year earlier. Forecasts of 1971
starts have run on the order of 1% to 2
million units and if mortgage credit
conditions remain favorable, this will
clearly be a very strong housing year.
Inflation puts an uptrend into the
average expenditure per unit constructed, but for the past year or so
the rise in costs has been partly offset
by an apparent trend to "less house
per unit," i.e., to smaller and cheaper
units. Average spending per unit has
not been affected by any appreciable
change in the mix of units between
single homes and apartment structures
(the latter being much less costly to
build, on average). The 1969 declines,
and 1970 increases, were of about equal
magnitude in the two broad categories.
Nonresidential construction
The economic slowdown last year cut
into the growth of commercial construction but early 1971 saw a steep advance.
This category—consisting of office
buildings, stores, restaurants, and other
buildings for the trade and service
industries—has shown persistent strong
growth in recent years.
The "industrial'' construction category consists mainly of factories and
had its strongest growth during the
capital investment boom of the mid1960's. There has been a general decline
in this category since late 1966, and its
weakness in recent years is reflected in
the trend in manufacturers' capital
spending. As estimated by the OBESEC surveys, manufacturers' capital
spending (for plant and equipment
together) grew strongly through 1966

but has been sluggish since then; the
latest expectations survey points to
some uptrend within 1971 but no change
for the year as a whole from last year's
total.
It is difficult to make a reliable
estimate of the relative roles of price
rise and real change in commercial
and industrial outlays. However, it
seems certain that industrial construction has been shrinking in real terms for
several years while the real volume of
commercial construction has probably
been growing steadily with an interruption in 1970. Contracts for commercial and industrial construction, stated
in terms of square footage, declined in
1966 from a peak early in that year,
recovered through 1969, declined in
1970, and showed renewed strength
early this year. Growth in the commercial category seems highly likely
this year, but industrial construction is
unlikely to expand until economic
activity and capacity
utilization
strengthen substantially.
Spending by telephone and telegraph
companies has been growing very
rapidly in the past few years, which is
not surprising in view of the severe
capacity pressures in some areas.
Growth persisted last year until the
fourth quarter, when outlays stabilized;
they continued to show little change
early this year, but further expansion
in 1971 seems highly probable.
So far as can be determined, electric
utilities have also increased their construction spending at a rapid rate in
recent years and will probably do so
again in 1971, while spending by the gas
utilities has been rather sluggish. As
estimated by the OBE-SEC survey,
electric companies7 aggregate spending
for plant and equipment rose 19 percent
last year and is expected to rise 22
percent in 1971, while gas company
outlays are shrinking. The Census
Bureau's construction estimates do not
provide separate data for utilities
(except for telephone companies) and
they are lumped on chart 1 with farm
construction, assorted private buildings
(educational, religious, institutional,
etc.), and a miscellaneous category. The
table shows the magnitudes involved,
with farm construction and "other"
utilities combined of necessity. Farm
construction likely amounted to little
more than $1 billion last year; electric
utilities account for the bulk of the
"other utilities" category.

The last 2 years saw extremely fast
growth in private construction outlays
for hospitals and related institutions.
Even allowing for inflation, the growth
was dramatic and was probably related
in some measure to growth in the
private nursing home business. Private
educational construction, on the other
hand, has been shrinking for several
years and religious construction for an
even longer period.
Public construction
Outlays for publicly owned construction, which add up to a total nearly
half as large as private outlays, were
significantly affected during the past
2 years by restrictive monetary and
fiscal policies. It is well known that
the credit restraint effective in 1969
and into 1970 put a heavy damper on
the ability of State and local governments to borrow in the capital markets.
This was reflected in their spending,
which comprises nearly 90 percent of
the public total (though Federal grants
reduce the actual State and local share
of the costs). In addition, the Federal
Government in September 1969 imposed a partial moratorium on its own
construction contracting, and urged
the States to do likewise. This was in
effect for 6 months.
Construction of public buildings fell
after mid-1969 and was showing only
May 1971
faint signs of recovery late in 1970.
The path of highway and street outlays
was closer to horizontal, on balance,
with several rises and falls in the past 2
years. The catchall "other" category—
which includes water and sewer
facilities—began rising last year after
a very steep drop from early 1969.
In 1971, with credit once more
easily available and borrowing costs
down, further growth in public outlays
seems certain. The needs are apparently
considerable, and the expansion could
be quite large.
Recent Auto Demand
Sales of new automobiles, counting
both domestics and imports, were at a
seasonally adjusted annual rate of 10
million units in the first quarter of 1971
and held at this rate in April. This compared with rates of about 9 million
units in each of the first three quarters
of 1970 and 7 million in the strikeaffected fourth quarter.
Sales of imports (excluding domestictype cars imported from Canada) have
been on a rising trend during this period,
moving from an annual rate of just
under 1.2 million units in the first
quarter of 1970 to 1.5 million in the first
quarter of this year. Sales of domestics
(including those built in Canada) fluctuated narrowly around a seasonally
adjusted annual rate of 1% million units
in the first three quarters of 1970, fell to
5.4 million in the fourth quarter, and
then rose to 8.4 million in the first quarter of 1971.
In the absence of a determination of
the "basic" demand for cars, it is difficult to estimate the extent to which
sales lost during the General Motors
strike have been made up. One approach
is to use the crude assumption that, had
there been no strike, sales would have
held through the first quarter of 1971 at
the prestrike rates—7% million units for
domestic types and l}{ million for
imports. On that assumption, the sales
loss in the fourth quarter was slightly
more than 2 million units in annual rate
terms. The fourth quarter loss to
General Motors was larger than that,
amounting to perhaps as much as 2.4
million units (annual rate); however,

Low priced cars include: Chevy II (Nova), Corvair, Comet
(1964 and 1965), Falcon, Maverick (since April1969), Valiant,
Dart, Rambler American (Hornet), Gremlin (since April
1970), and Pinto and Vega (since September 1970). All other

share taken by medium price cars,
although such cars still account for the
major share of the market. The shift has
been to lower priced domestics and also
to imports, which are for the most part
low priced; the market share of high
priced cars has shown little variation.
Apart from the distortions caused by
the General Motors strike, these trends
continued through 1970 and into the
first quarter of 1971.
Strike-related distortions accounted
for some of the changes in market share
in the latest two quarters. Averaging
the two quarters together, high priced
domestic cars accounted for 4 percent
of sales, equal to their share in the

there was a partial offset, or makeup, as
sales of other domestic types ran ahead
of the assumed "basic" pace by about
100,000 units (annual rate) and sales of
imports about 200,000 units ahead.
There was a larger makeup in the opening quarter of 1971: sales of domestic
types were about 700,000 units (annual
rate) higher than the "basic" pace and
import sales about 300,000 units higher.
In sum, under the stated assumptions
there was a 50- to 55-percent recovery of
lost GM sales through the first quarter—10 to 15 percent in the fourth
quarter and about 40 percent in the
first. Needless to say, a lower "basic"
demand assumption would result in a
higher estimate of the number of sales
recovered, and vice versa.
Sales by price lines
Chart 2 shows the trend in sales of
new cars by price lines;1 the percentage
distribution of sales is shown in table 1.
As can be seen, there has been a downward trend since 1967 in the market
1. The classification of cars by price line is necessarily arbitrary. The available data do not provide price information for
car sales under a given nameplate, and the classification used
here assigns all sales under a given nameplate to one of the
three price lines (see footnote 1, table 1). The 1971 list prices of
cars classified here as "low priced" are mostly under $2500
(exclusive of optional equipment) but range up to $2,700. For
"high priced" cars, list prices are $5,250 or higher.
Medium Priced
first three quarters of 1970. General
Motors accounts for somewhat over 50
percent of total domestic car sales but
for over 70 percent of high priced cars,
and this was undoubtedly a factor
contributing to the sharpness of the
recent swing in high priced car sales.
Low priced domestics and imports
each had a share of about 18 percent in
the two quarters together, up from an
average 14 percent for each category
in the first three quarters of 1970. The
sales share of medium priced cars
averaged 68 percent in the first three
quarters of 1970, already considerably
lower than in any previous year, and
dropped to an average of only 61 percent in the latest two quarters.
Chevrolet's Vega and Ford's Pinto—
introduced in September 1970—have
become important factors in the low
price market. They accounted for about
36 percent of domestic sales in the low
priced category in the first quarter.
Sales of other domestic low priced cars
and of medium priced models were
sluggish, but import sales continued
to show considerable strength; this
suggests that the new domestic subcompacts scored a considerable number
of their sales at the expense of other
domestic models.

For nearly 2 years now, cautious
attitudes on the part of consumers
have had an adverse impact on spending, particularly for durable goods.
Prior to the development of these
attitudes, consumers were adding to
debt at a record pace; the net expansion
(extensions' less repayments) was $9K
billion in the year ending in the spring
of 1969. However, growing concern
over inflation, unemployment, and the
general state of the economy led the
consumer to hold back on spending and
steeply reduce his use of credit. The net
credit expansion in this year's first
quarter was less than $2% billion at a
seasonally adjusted annual rate. Except
for the strike-distorted closing quarter
of last year, when outstanding credit
actually declined, this was the smallest
expansion since the period of economic
slowdown in 1967.
SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS
Although the slowdown in use of
consumer credit has been evident in all
major debt categories, it has been most
visible in auto credit, the biggest and
most volatile component of the total
(chart 3). The pace of auto credit expansion reached its peak in the second
half of 1968 and then tapered off
progressively in 1969. The volume of
auto paper outstanding contracted modestly during the first three quarters
of last year and very sharply during
the strike-aifected fourth quarter. That
decline more than offset small increases
in the other credit components, resulting in the first decline in the aggregate
since the spring of 1961. The poststrike
surge in auto sales in the first quarter
of this year was accompanied by a sharp
rebound in auto credit extensions, but
consumers continued to make very
heavy repayments of auto debt and
the net increase in the first quarter
was very small.
Weakness in consumer spending for
other types of goods and services
typically bought on credit is evident
in the marked tapering in the growth
of the nonauto components of installment credit—other consumer goods
paper, personal loans, and repair and
modernization loans. The expansion
rate of nonauto credit, in the aggregate,
declined sharply and steadily from a
$6}£ billion increase in the year ending
in the spring of 1969 to a gain of less
than $2% billion (seasonally adjusted
annual rate) in the first quarter of this
year.
The outlook
The course of consumer credit is
inextricably bound to the strength of
consumer demand, and the latter remains the key uncertainty in the outlook for the economy as a whole. Apart
from the short-term effects of the
rebound from the auto strike, the first
quarter data did not indicate any major
recovery of consumer demand for dur-

ables nor any resurgence in the use of
installment credit. Nevertheless, there
is a broadly based consensus that sees
consumer demand strengthening as the
year wears on, although there is less
agreement on the timing and vigor of
this strengthening. Recent surveys of
consumer sentiment indicate some
strengthening of buying intentions,
but a shift in attitudes that will
provide a major thrust to aggregate
demand appears to depend heavily on
progress in reducing inflation and
unemployment.
Some step-up in credit use can be
expected as a result of the current boom
in housing; it is also possible that there
will be a higher volume of auto sales—
and of auto credit use—this year than
last. Beyond that, there is not much
that can be said about the prospective
strength of credit use. However, it
should be borne in mind that the consumer is apparently in a financial
position to embark on heavy spending.
Despite the economic slowdown that
cut sharply into private earnings, disposable personal income has been
fairly well maintained by fiscal actions
such as tax changes, government pay
increases, and increases in social security benefits and other transfer payments. Moreover, individuals have
substantially increased their saving,
which has been above 7 percent of
disposable personal income for the
past year. Thus, consumers have for
some time been cutting back on their
debt burdens and adding very substantially to their holdings of financial
assets, and they are now in a highly
liquid position.

SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS
May 1971
15
Public and Private Debt
These tables update the statistics on debt
that have appeared in previous May issues
of the SURVEY. Revisions have been made
only in data for 1967-69. Data back to 1955
are in the May 1970 SURVEY and data for
earlier years in the May 1969 SURVEY. A
table showing nonfarm mortgage debt by
borrowing and lending groups, by type of
property (table 7 in the May 1968 SURVEY)
is available from OBE on request.
The total increase in public and private
debt was $117 billion in 1970, $21 billion
less than the 1969 increase. Public debt rose
about $32 billion in 1970, more than twice
as much as the $15 billion increase in 1969,
but private debt rose much less last year
($85Ji billion) than in 1969 ($123 billion).
The net indebtedness of the Federal Government to the public rose $12 billion last
year to a yearend total of $301 billion, following a $2% billion decline in 1969. The
turnaround resulted from the shift in the
Federal budgetary position from a surplus
in 1969 to a deficit in 1970. State and local
government debt grew $12 billion last year,
substantially more than the $8)4 billion rise
in 1969. To some extent, this acceleration
reflected the completion in 1970 of borrowing
which had been postponed during the tight
financial conditions of 1969.
The debt of federally sponsored credit
agencies rose $8 billion last year, somewhat
less than the $9 billion rise in 1969. This
slowdown reflected principally the reduced
need of savings and loan associations to
resort to Federal Home Loan Bank financing,
as savings deposits rose sharply after recording
little growth in 1969. The bulk of last year's
rise in the debt of the credit agencies stemmed
from the mortgage financing operations of the
Federal National Mortgage Association.
Corporations accounted for the bulk of the
slowdown in private sector debt expansion,
but individuals, including the owners of unincorporated enterprises, also slackened their
borrowing.
Total corporate debt, including the debts
of nonfinancial corporations and the nondeposit liabilities of financial intermediaries,
rose $58% billion last year compared with a
rise of $87% billion in 1969. The slowdown
reflected both reduced borrowing by nonfinancial corporations and reduced reliance
by banks on nondeposit sources of funds.
There was a marked shift to long-term financing, particularly bonds; long-term corporate
debt rose $33% billion in 1970 compared with
a rise of $27 billion in 1969, while corporations' short-term notes and accounts payable
rose only $5 billion last year after having
increased $25% billion in 1969.
Almost all types of individual and noncorporate indebtedness rose at a slower pace
last year than in 1969. The exception was
financial debt, which includes stock market
credit; it rose in 1970 after having declined
in 1969. The slowing was most marked in
consumer credit; it rose only $4*4 billion in
1970, less than half as much as the $9%
billion increase in 1969. Home mortgage debt
also rose at a markedly slower pace in 1970
($12% billion) than in 1969 ($16 billion) as
did the business-related debts of farm and
nonfarm entrepreneurs.

Personal Income in Metropolitan and Nonmetropolitan Areas
The tables accompanying this article update and continue OBE's metropolitan area
income series first introduced in the May 1967 issue of the SURVEY. Preliminary estimates
of total and per capita personal income are presented for metropolitan areas (SMSA's)
and for the sum of nonmetropolitan areas (non-SMSA's) in each major region in 1969.
The personal income figures presented in this issue have been expanded to include estimates for 10 newly designated metroplitan areas. The SMSA's are: Appleton-Oshkosh,
Wis.; Bryan-College Station, Tex.; Columbia, Mo.; Gainesville, Fla.; La Crosse, Wis.;
Modesto, Calif.; Owensboro, Ky.; Petersburg, Va.; Rochester, Minn.; and Santa Rosa,
Calif. Minor revisions have been made in the previously published estimates for
some areas for selected years, 1929-68, but the annual revisions introduced into the
national accounts for 1965-68 have not yet been incorporated. Personal income is shown
for each SMSA on a where-received basis as well as on a where-earned basis. The concepts
and methodology underlying the SMSA income series are outlined in the notes to the
accompanying tables. They were discussed at somewhat greater length in the May 1969
SURVEY, and a statement on sources of data and methods of estimating is available on
request.
Availability of unpublished data
A large amount of information is now available about local area income by type and by
industry of origin. A sample of the detail available is shown on page 32. Comparable
tables are available for any SMSA and for most of the 2,617 non-SMSA counties. Also,
counties can be grouped in any specified combination. The cost of special tabulations is
computed at $10 per area (SMSA or county) for table 5.00 (on page 32) plus $1 per area
for each of tables 5.01-5.07. Address requests for tabulations to the Regional Economics
Division, Office of Business Economics, Washington, D.C. 20230, specifying the area and
tables desired. A cost estimate will be issued immediately.
JT ERSONAL income in the Nation's
233 metropolitan areas rose 9 percent
from 1968 to 1969. Income in nonmetropolitan areas, which accounts for
one-fourth of total personal income,
also rose 9 percent. Different forces
were responsible for income growth in
the two types of areas.
In metropolitan areas, the main
industrial stimulus to income gain
came from construction, services, and
trade, which rose 13, 11, and 9 percent,
respectively. These gains represent the
effect of the continuing shift of consumer-oriented economic activity into
urban areas. This is due in part to the
movement of persons to retirement and
recreation areas as well as to the con16
tinued migration from rural to urban
areas as farming becomes more automated and requires less labor.
Changes in total income in metropolitan areas from 1968 to 1969 ranged
from an increase of almost 22 percent
in the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood,
Fla., Standard Metropolitan Statistical
Area (SMSA) to a decline of 2% percent
in the Amarillo, Tex. SMSA. In 14
SMSA's the increase was more than
half again as large as the national
average of 9 percent. Four of these are
in the Southwestern part of the United
States. The remaining 10 are located in
coastal areas mainly in the South—
seven in Florida, one each in North
Carolina and Mississippi, and one in
Hawaii. Eight of the 14—Fort Lauderdale, Las Vegas, West Palm Beach,
Miami, Tucson, Reno, Tampa-St. Petersburg, and Honolulu—are recreation
or retirement centers. Another three—
Tallahassee, Biloxi-Gulfport, and Pensacola—are heavily oriented toward
government activity, with recreation
and retirement also important. The
remaining three—Orlando, Phoenix,
and Wilmington (N.C.)—are classified
economically as mixed SMSA's, although recreation and retirement activities figure heavily in the economies
of the first two.
Income declined in 1969 in the Amarillo SMSA and in nine others rose at a
rate less than half the national average
of 9 percent. The regional or type-ofSMSA pattern is less distinct among
slow-growth areas than in those with
high growth rates. There was no relationship between size or type of SMSA
and slow growth. However, in half of
the group, a decline in military payrolls
was primarily responsible for the slow
growth. In several, the slow growth in
1969 reflected the completion in 1968 of
some major construction program.
Eight of the 10 slow-growing SMSA's
are located in the South and Far West,
which are fast-growing regions. One is
in the Plains and one in the Rocky
Mountain region, both of which have
been slow-growth regions in the past
two decades. None of the 10 SMSA's
was located in New England, the MidNOTE.—The SMSA estimates were prepared by Wallace Bailey, Jr., Kenneth Berkman, Michael Carroll, Vivian Conklin, Joseph
Czako, Francis Dallavalle, Virginia Davis,
Linnea Hazen, Kenneth Horowitz, Gordon
Lester, Elizabeth Queen, William Reid, Jr.,

SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS

During this period, income trends in
the metropolitan and nonmetropolitan
areas of each region tended to accord
broadly with each other.
However, over the next two decades,
income changes in nonmetropolitan
areas had an unusually strong influence
on income growth trends in several
regions, even though, on the average,
the income of residents of nonmetropolitan areas accounts for only onefourth of total income. The remainder
of this report focuses on these income
changes and their effects on regional
trends.
The most pronounced shift occurred
in the Rocky Mountain region where a
strong uptrend in total income between
1929 and 1950 was eliminated during
the 1950's and followed in the 1960's
by the strongest (by a small margin)
regional downtrend. Although this increasingly severe lag in income growth
centered in the region's nonmetropolitan areas, by the 1960's its influence
had extended to metropolitan areas as
well.
Similarly, income lags in nonmetropolitan areas of the Plains States converted a trend in total income that
matched that of the Nation up to 1950
into the sharpest regional downtrend
during the 1950's and a moderate downtrend in the 1960's. In both regions,
these adverse developments are traceable ultimately to agriculture.

Although below-average growth in nonmetropolitan areas was partly responsible, the major factor was a slowing
in the growth rate in metropolitan
areas in the Far West compared to
that in metropolitan areas nationally.
Income growth in New England, the
Mideast, and Great Lakes areas was
below average over the 1929-50 period.
It continued below average in the 1950's
and 1960's but the relative downtrend
in the three regions slowed. This was
due not so much to a strengthening of
economic conditions in those regions as
it was to a slowdown in growth in the
other five regions of the country.
The shifts summarized above are examined in more detail in the remainder
of this article. The order in which the
regions are discussed indicates the importance of developments in non-SMSA

east, or Great Lakes regions, which
have, consistently grown at less-thanaverage rates over the past four
decades.
In nonmetropolitan areas, income
from farming and manufacturing rose
13 and 10 percent, respectively, in 1969
and contributed most to income expansion. Changes in these two industries also contributed most to regional
variations in rates of increase.
Farm income rose 17 and 20 percent,
respectively, in the nonmetropolitan
areas of the Rocky Mountain and
Plains regions, and these were the nonmetropolitan areas with largest increases in total income in 1969. On the
other hand, farm income showed no
change in the nonmetropolitan portions
of the Far West and only a 5-percent
increase in the Southwest, and total
income gains in the nonmetropolitan
areas of these two regions were the
smallest in the Nation.
Above-average increases in income
from farming and manufacturing combined to bolster total income in the
nonmetropolitan areas of the Southeast. The smallness of the 1968-69
gains in these two industries in the
Far West was the major factor in
that region's less-than-average income
advance in its nonmetropolitan area.
Sizable increases in manufacturing earnings in the nonmetropolitan areas of
the Great Lakes bolstered the economy
there.
Rocky Mountain
During the 1950's, the most pronounced effect of income growth in
nonmetropolitan areas on overall regional trends was in the Rocky Mountain States. From 1929 to 1950, income
in the region grew more than 200 percent, whereas income nationally expanded just over 150 percent. This
pronounced relative uptrend in the region was eliminated during the 1950's,
when income rose 71 percent in the
region and 69 percent nationally.
The slackening in the region's growth
rate, both relative to the Nation and
in absolute terms, was the product of
developments in its rural areas—specifically, those devoted mainly to farming. Income in the region's nonmetropolitan areas, which accounts for more
than half of all income in the region,
rose less than 50 percent from 1950 to
1959. The major factor holding back
income growth in the region's nonmetropolitan areas was a 10-percent
decline in farm income, a component
which in 1950 accounted for one-fourth
of total income in those areas of the
region.
In contrast, personal income in metropolitan areas of the Rocky Mountain
States doubled during the 1950's, com-

ing effect of this on the region's total
income gain was much less in the 1960's
than in the 1950's because of the reduction in the importance of farming in the
region's income structure—from 12 percent of total income in 1950 to 6 percent in 1959.
The most striking development in
nonmetropolitan areas of the Southeast
has been their rapid industrialization.
From 1959 to 1969, earnings of persons
engaged in manufacturing rose 145 percent in nonmetropolitan areas of the
Southeast and 108 percent in nonmetropolitan areas nationally. By 1969,
Manufacturing earnings accounted for
24 per cent of all personal income in the
region's nonmetropolitan areas.
Southwest
From 1929 to 1950, income in the
Southwest rose at a much faster rate
than in the Nation, with the main impetus supplied by expansion of economic activity in metropolitan areas. In
fact, the rate of income growth in
metropolitan areas of the Southwest
exceeded that of any other region by a
wide margin. During this period the
income increase in the Southwest's
nonmetropolitan areas equaled the national average.
In the 1950's, however, the increase
in nonmetropolitan area income was
small, reflecting a decrease in farm
income and the consequent impact on
supporting industries. This reduced the
Southwest's income uptrend to a small
fraction of what it had been in the
previous two decades. During the
1950's, income growth in the region's
metropolitan areas exceeded that of the
Nation by a margin that was substantial though much smaller than in the
1929-50 period. This relative slowing
of the growth rate in the region's
metropolitan areas stemmed, at least
in part, from the decline in farm income,
which had a significant, indirect impact
on supporting industries even in metropolitan areas.
In the 1960's, the margin of the
Southwest's income growth rate over
the national rate was further reduced.
This was caused by the slow rate of
farm income growth. Because farming
is concentrated in nonmetropolitan
areas, the effect of the lag in this
SUKVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS
industry was centered in these areas.
In metropolitan areas, however, income
growth in the Southwest was second
only to that in the Southeast. Particularly noticeable was the 130-percent
gain in income from manufacturing in
the Southwest as a whole. Nationally,
the comparable gain was 84 percent.
Far West
Because nonmetropolitan areas account for a much smaller proportion
of total income in the Far West (16
percent in 1950) th?n in the southern
and west central regions (nearly 50
percent), the impact of income changes
in nonmetropolitan areas there was
much less than in other parts of the
country. The steady reduction in the
size of the region's income uptrend is
mainly the product of developments in
metropolitan areas. In each of the three
periods, 1929-50,1950-59, and 1959-69,
income in all major industries grew at
above-average rates in metropolitan
areas of the Far West, but the margins
over the national growth rates were
diminishing.
The comparatively small relative
income uptrend in the 1960's was
accomplished mainly in the first half of
the decade. From 1959 to 1965, total
income in the Nation rose 40 percent;
19
in the Far West it was up 45 percent.
From 1965 to 1969, personal income
rose 40 percent in the Far West and 39
percent in the Nation. Much of these
recent-period developments reflect the
curtailment of aerospace activities.
New England, Mideast, and Great
Lakes
The New England, Mideast, and
Great Lakes regions account for 51
percent of all personal income in the
country. They are highly urbanized and
industrialized: Nonmetropolitan areas
account for about 16 percent of their
total income, compared with 31 percent
in the rest of the country, and agricultural income accounts for only about 2
percent of their total income. Even in
their nonmetropolitan areas farming
accounts directly for less than 5 percent. In view of this income structure,
changes in nonmetropolitan area income
have only a small effect on total income
in these three regions.
Income growth in the New England,
Mideast, and Great Lakes regions was
less than that in the country as a whole
in each of the three periods reviewed in
this report. However, the lags have
generally diminished ovei time, though
this generalization holds less firmly for
the Great Lakes where the lag has been
quite small in each period.

NOTE.—Personal income is the current income of persons in an area from all sources. It is
measured before deduction of income and other personal taxes, but after deduction of personal
contributions to social security, government retirement, and other social insurance programs.
It consists of wages and salaries (in cash and in kind and including tips and bonuses as well as
contractual compensation), various types of supplementary earnings termed "other labor
income" (the largest item being employer contributions to private pension and welfare funds),
and the net incomes of owners of unincorporated businesses (farm and nonfarm, including the
incomes of independent professionals), net rental income, dividends, interest, and government and business transfer payments (consisting in general of disbursements to persons for
which no services are rendered currently, such as unemployment benefits, social security
payments, and welfare and relief payments).
The classification of SMSA's used in this report accords with the Office of Management and
Budget definitions published in 1967 and amended February 1971, with the following exceptions: (1) In New England, SMSA's are defined officially in terms of cities and towns instead
of counties. SMSA's in New England were redefined for this report to conform to a county
basis, the local-area unit for which income estimates can be constructed; (2) in Alaska, Vermont, and Wyoming—States without official SMSA's—Anchorage, Burlingiton, and Cheyenne, respectively, are treated as SMSA's; (3) the geographic definition of each SMSA is held
constant over the entire period for which the estimates were made.
The two versions of area personal income presented in this report differ in the treatment of the
earnings component, which is the sum of wages and salaries, other labor income, and proprietors' income. In the first version, termed "where earned," earnings reflect place of work of
the recipient. In the second version, termed "where received," earnings reflect place of residence. The same measures of property and transfer income are used for both versions.

CURRENT BUSINESS STATISTICS
J.HE STATISTICS here update series published in the 1969 edition of BUSINESS STATISTICS, biennial statistical supplement to the SURVEY
OF CURRENT BUSINESS. That volume (price $3.00) provides a description of each series, references to sources of earlier figures, and historical data
as follows: For all series, monthly or quarterly, 1965 through 1968 (1958-68 for major quarterly series), annually, 1939-68; for selected series,
monthly or quarterly, 1947-68 (where available). Series added or significantly revised after the 1969 BUSINESS STATISTICS went to press are indicated
by an asterisk (*) and a dagger (t), respectively; certain revisions for 1968 issued too late for inclusion in the 1969 volume appear in the monthly
SURVEY beginning with the September 1969 issue. Also, unless otherwise noted, revised monthly data for periods not shown herein corresponding
to revised annual data are available upon request.
The sources of the data are given in the 1969 edition of BUSINESS STATISTICS; they appear in the main descriptive note for each series, and
are also listed alphabetically on pages 189-90.
Statistics originating in Government agencies are not copyrighted and may be reprinted freely.
Data from private sources are provided through the courtesy of the compilers, and are subject to their copyrights.
