Foreword
Twenty years ago the Department of Commerce undertook to publish a comprehensive record
of the past movements of all the business indicators which are brought up to date monthly in
the magazine SURVEY of CURRENT BUSINESS. The resulting statistical supplement was welcomed
by businessmen and other subscribers to the SURVEY, and this series has become a well-used
tool in business research.
Used in conjunction with the latest issue of the SURVEY of CURRENT BUSINESS, this volume brings to hand a measure of the behavior of important business indexes from 1935 to the
present. Weekly supplements are regularly provided each subscriber to assure that the most
useful of the figures speedily reach their users. This statistical supplement is published
every 2 years to keep the subscriber equipped with the most authoritative data on back years,
and to spare him the inconvenience of having to locate them in the issues of the monthly magazine. These services were initiated in response to businessmen's expressions of their needs,
and it has been gratifying to the Office of Business Economics to note the ever-widening use
made of them.
The business statistics selected for publication here are those which have most value
in the current operations of the business community. The selection has been determined by
our long experience in publishing the monthly SURVEY of CURRENT BUSINESS—by years of exploring with businessmen the question as to what information is basically necessary for each
trade or industry group and for business in general. Over 2,600 different business series are
furnished.
The organization of this 1951 edition lends itself to quick and efficient research. The
statistical tables first present monthly data from January 1947 through December 1950 and annual averages of monthly data from 1935 through 1950. The explanatory notes which follow contain brief but complete descriptions and explanations of the data covered in the tables and
in the monthly issues of the SURVEY of CURRENT BUSINESS. Finally, the sources from which the
data are derived are listed.
Demand for previous editions of the SURVEY statistical supplement has exhausted the
supply provided by the Government Printing Office except in the case of the 1947 and 1949
publications. A small quantity of the 1947' issue is available for purchase from the Superintendent of Documents and, as the result of a larger printing, the number of copies of the
1949 edition there is adequate. Where earlier editions are out of print, recourse can be had
to the reference copies to be found in the field offices of the Department of Commerce
throughout the country or in hundreds of Government depository and other libraries.
This publication was prepared by the Current Business Analysis Division, of which Dr.
C. A. R. Wardwell is Chief. K. Celeste Stokes, Chief of the Statistical Series Section, was
directly responsible for this volume. In compiling the data and developing the explanatory
notes published here, the many private organizations and Government agencies which regularly
provide material for the monthly SURVEY of CURRENT BUSINESS contributed generously. The Office of Business Economics well appreciates that without their untiring work on the basic
data this series of volumes would not have been possible.
