1936 Supplement
to the Survey of Current Business
Foreword
is the first supplement to the SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS that it has been possible
J_ to issue since 1932. In the interim many changes have occurred in the statistical series,
and it has been very difficult to keep users apprised of such changes through the medium of the
monthly numbers.
The present volume presents the statistical record, by months, for the years 1932 to 1935,
inclusive, together with monthly averages, or annual indexes, back to 1913 where available.
The material presented in the notes, beginning on page 154, has been brought up to date so as
to present current descriptions of the individual series. The 1932 supplement carried monthly
data from 1923 to 1931, and part of this monthly material is comparable with the data contained
in the present volume. By comparing the monthly averages, or annual indexes, in the two volumes
and consulting the notes, it is possible to determine the series in which changes have been made.
Sales copies of the 1932 supplement are entirely exhausted, but these were furnished to all subscribers at the time of issue and to new subscribers for a considerable period thereafter. Copies
were placed in the various Government depository libraries located throughout the country.
Where monthly data have been published in the monthly numbers issued subsequent to the
publication of the 1932 supplement for the period prior to 1932, a page reference has been made in
the notes mentioned above.
Users of the data should be caxeful to examine these notes on the sources of data and the
nature of the series, since a large proportion of the time series represents sample data; some of
the series are not homogeneous for the entire period covered by reason of the shifting character
of the sample.
While a considerable expenditure of time and effort has gone into the preparation of this
supplement, it is too much to hope that in dealing with dynamic material covering such extensive
fields that absolute accuracy has been achieved. Consequently, it would be appreciated if users
of the series, or the compiling organizations, would call to the attention of the editor any discrepancies or inconsistencies in the data which they may detect. This will facilitate the improvement
of the next supplement which it is planned to publish 2 years hence—in 1938.
The material contained in the SURVEY represents a selection of the time series which are
available on either a monthly or a quarterly basis. The series, which in number exceed 2,000,
are drawn from over 200 different Government and non-Government sources whose continuing
cooperation is gratefully acknowledged. The chief function of this publication is to draw together
in convenient summary form the statistics which, if published at all, are scattered in hundreds of
different publications and reports.
Monthly issues of the SURVEY carry forward the statistical series presented in this volume,
and also contain a review of economic trends, together with discussions of pertinent subjects in
the form of special articles. The weekly supplements contain both weekly and monthly statistics,
together with a series of charts of weekly data and a thumbnail sketch of business trends.

FOOTNOTES ON TIME SERIES

i Compiled by the Annalist (published by the New York Times Co.), and consists
of a composite average of representative items selected to represent the trend of
general business activity. It will be noted, however, that all series but 2 represent
industrial output; tbe exceptions are the 2 series on freight-ear loadings, shown here
in combination only. The last general revision was made in June 1936, At that
time, trend lines were recomputed, weights were altered, and several new series
added. The new series added are lead production and rayon deliveries. For freightcar loadings, 2 series are used instead of one as previously; these are "miscellaneous
loadings" and "all other", the former being given twice the weight of the latter. The
series on lumber production since the middle of 1933 represents the monthly average
of the New York Times weekly lumber production index, while in earlier months,
the monthly estimates made by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
are used. Wool consumption is for apparel class wool only, as compiled by the New
York Wool Top Exchange Service.
The Indexes are arithmetic averages of weighted relatives adjusted for both secular
trend and seasonal variation. The seasonal adjustment factors were computed by
the link relative method. In computing the secular trends for the various items,
orthodox methods are used for all series except electric power production, pig iron
production, freight-car loadings, and cotton consumption. Thus, straight-line
trends, fitted to data for back years, are used for production of steel ingots, silk consumption (through 1930), rayon consumption, automobile production, Portland
cement production, and zinc production, while for wool consumption, silk consumption (subsequent to 1930), and production of boots and shoes, lumber and lead, horizontal trends are assumed.
For the 5 remaining series, cotton consumption, production of electric power and
pig iron, and the 2 series on freight-car loadings, special treatment was accorded, and it
is best to review the methods and reasoning advanced in the June 26,1936, issue of the
Annalist.
Arbitrary weights, based on data from the Census of Manufactures and other
sources, and adjusted on the basis of the amplitude of the swings of the individual
series, are as follows (the effective weights are given in parenthesis); automobile
production, 3 (8); boot and shoe production, 3 (4); freight-car loadings, 24 (18); miscellaneous, 16 (12) and all other, 8 (6); cement production, 1 (2); cotton consumption,
6 (10); electric power production, 37 (12); lead production, 2 (3); lumber production,
2 (3); pig iron production, 5 (10); rayon consumption, 1 (2); silk consumption, 1;
steel ingot production, 10 (20); wool consumption, 1 (3); and zinc production, 4.

Compiled by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, Division oj
Research and Statistics, and serves as a measure of changes in the volume of the
country's industrial output. The index is made up of 2 components, manufactures
and minerals, covering industries which, according to the 1923 Biennial. Census of
Manufactures, represented directly and indirectly about 80 percent of total industrial
production. Formerly, it was derived from 60 individual series measuring production in 35 industries; as of December 1935, 54 series were included.
In constructing the index the monthly physical volume figures are reduced to daily
averages, adjusted for seasonal variation where necessary, using adjustment factors
derived by the "ratio to moving average" method, and weighted according to value
added by manufacture in 1923 for the index of manufactures, and by average value of
product in 1923,1924, and 1925 for the minerals index, Tbe aggregate of the weighted,
seasonally adjusted daily averages for a given month is related to the identical aggregate for the base years 1923-25.
In order to give representation to manufacturing industries for which no monthly
data are available, each series used is weighted not only according to its own relative
importance, but also to some extent for that of the group of industries which it represents in the index. In other words, each weight used is a combination of two factors,
the first representing the value added by manufacture, and the second being a mulRevised indexes o f leather and shoe production for the period January 1919 through
1932 appeared in tbe January 1934 issue of the SURVEY, p. 19.
A more complete description of the index is presented in the Federal Reserve Bulletins for February 1927 and March 1927. Subsequent revisions are described in the
Federal Reserve Bulletins for February 1931, September 1931, March 1932, and September 1933.

i Compiled by the U. S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of Foreign and Domestic
Commerce, and represents a revision of the original indexes of the quantity of agricultural products marketed to correct inequalities in the weights. The present
weights have been assigned on the basis of the average annual cash income for the
period 1025-29, as reported by the U. S. Department of Agriculture. The series used
in the construction of the indexes are all taken from the SURVEY OF CUB-BENT BUSINESS with the exception of certain series on vegetables and fruits, which are taken
from the reports of carlot shipments of the
Department of Agriculture. The products
included in the index contribute about 3A of the cash income derived from crops and
about H of the cash income derived from animal products. The weights assigned
to the various groups are as follows: Animal products, 50.5 (dairy products 7.3,
livestock 31.5, poultry and eggs 10.5, wool 1.2); crops, 49.5 (cotton and cottonseed
19.0, fruits 6.6, grains 17.9, and vegetables, 6.0).
Although there is a distinct seasonal movement in agricultural marketings, no
adjustment has been made for this factor. Monthly data for the period 1920-31,
together with the weights for the individual series, and a more detailed 'description,
were
published on pp. 18-20 of the March 1933 issue of the SURVEY.

Computed by the U. S. Department of Agriculture, Bureau of Agricultural Economics, for the purpose of measuring the cash income derived by farmers from the sale
of farm products. The indexes are based on estimates of monthly cash income from
marketings of 37 of the more important agricultural products, which in most years
represent about 90 percent of all cash income received by farmers. Although the
total of the 12 monthly estimates of income for any year is approximately the same
as the annual estimates of cash income from farm production as compiled by the
Department of Agriculture, they are not exactly comparable.
Estimates of monthly cash income are derived from estimated monthly marketings
of the several farm commodities and the farm prices of these commodities. Certain
adjustments have been made in the basic marketing data used, and when so adjusted
the crops included provide about 88 percent of the total income from crops and the
livestock products provide about 98 percent of the total income from these products.
The monthly estimates of income derived from the commodities included were raised
to equal the total cash income from crops and livestock by determining for each year
from 1924 to 1932 the percentage of the annual casb income which was contributed by
the crops and livestock products included in the monthly indexes. These percentages
were found to be practically constant for all years and were used as raising factors.
Where necessary, the individual series have been adjusted for seasonal variation.
The method employed was to determine the percentage that the average of each
month for the 6 years 1924 to 1929, inclusive, was of the average for the entire 72
months. Seasonal variations in livestock marketings are quite regular, and hence
the seasonal factors tend to eliminate such movements; for crops the seasonal movements are more erratic, and in any one year there may be considerable variation from
the average in consequence of seasonal conditions.
A more complete description, together with monthly data for the period 1924 to
1933, may be found on pp 16-19 of the May 1934 issue of the SURVEY.
Monthly averages given are for the unadjusted indexes and differ from the averages
of the seasonally adjusted indexes by reason of the method of seasonal correction used.

1 Compiled by the U. S, Department of Commerce, Bureau of Foreign and Domestic
Commerce from the available series of stocks. The data are for stocks in the hands
of producers, or at primary points of concentration and, in general, the original series
are carried in the SURVEY. Since the selection of the series to be included in the index
was based on the availability of data, the list of commodities is not as comprehensive
as would be desirable for a complete coverage of the stock situation.
The index is heavily weighted for raw materials and semimanufactures, as would
be expected from the data available and the fact that stocks are more commonly
held in such form. The weights are based on the relative importance of the commodities in the base period as determined by production or marketing data. The
indexes are not corrected for seasonal variation.
It will be noted that several of the group indexes formerly carried are not given in
this Supplement; those that are not shown separately did not have a sufficiently
inclusive coverage to be representative of the commodity group.
A description of the index, as originally computed, was presented in the August
1928 issue of the SURVEY, p. 20. A number of revisions in the data have been made,
owing to the discontinuance of some of the series originally included,
At present, 35 series of basic stock data are used, of which 19 represent raw materials
and 16 finished goods. Total weights assigned are 539, of which 313 were assigned to
the raw material group, 226 to finished goods, including certain series for which
estimates are made.

Commerce, to show the comparative) trend of stocks and prices of 8 major foodstuffs
and raw materials for which comprehensive world stock statistics are available.
This index, and the price index also, originally embraced 9 commodities, but the re*
porting of copper stocks on a monthly basis was discontinued as of October 1931,
and necessitated the elimination of this series for all periods. The price of copper has
also been removed from the composite price index shown on p. 115. Tho component
series are weighted in accordance with the value of stocks on hand in the base period
1923-25. calculated on the average stocks for the year, and the average prices prevailing. The total weights assigned were 30, distributed as follows: Coffee, 2; cotton, 9;
rubber, 3; silk, 2; sugar, 6; tea, 1; tin, 1; and wheat, 6.

Those series which showed a distinct seasonal variation were adjusted for this
factor. The indexes have not been computed prior to 1920, since the basic data concerning stocks are not available. Data on rubber are available only as far back as
December 1923, silk figures back to January 1925 only, and sugar to January 1922.
The silk component is based on a new series; a description is given in note 5 for p. 143.
The revisions in the combined index and in the rubber and sugar indexes resulted
from seasonal adjustments in rubber and sugar stocks; these indexes were originally
shown without allowance for seasonal movements. In addition, the sugar index
was revised to include Javan stocks from March 1927 onward.

20-21 shows "World stocks of foodstuffs and raw materials" for nine commodities.
Eevised figures from January 1927 through July 1932 for the combined index of nine
commodities and for rubber and sugar, adjusted, were shown in the SURVEY oy

Compiled by the National Industrial Conference Board to show the trend of living
costs of wage-earners' families. The indexes given for 1914,1915, J916, and 1917 are as
of July of each year; 1918 figures are an average of the 2 months June and November ;
1919 of the 3 months March, July, and November; thereafter the annual data are
averages of 12 monthly figures. Up to March 1922, the prices used are as of the 1st
of the month, and subsequently the figures are as of the 15th of each month. An
exception is the index of food prices, which is the index of the U. S. Department of

their index on a biweekly basis, and for the purposes of the Conference Board the
index nearest the 15th of the month has been used, excepting those months when
two reporting periods are about equidistant from the 15th, when an average of the
2 is used.
The index is based on a comprehensive list of retail prices and rents. It is an
arithmetic average of weighted relatives, using the 1923 average as the base. The
weights are based on post-war household expenditures of wage-earners' families, as
determined from studies made in several different cities, by various agencies extend ing over the period 1921-28.
For the five classifications in the index the weights are: Foods, 33; housing, 20 ;
clothing, 12; fuel and light, 5; and sundries, 30. In the last group, household furnishings and reading materials are given the heaviest weights (4.2 percent each).
