operation of the plant. Against this, the product of the actual average number g of employees in a given period ard the actual number of hours worked in the same period, gives the actual man hours.
 In October, for example, the average actually employed was I'll of normal. and the average work-week was SAL of normal, giving 62.6 as the index of average industrial activity. This meth od of determining the state of indlstria activity has been developed by the state association in cooperation with It's mem bers and their local organizations. in or der that Connecticut industry might know from time to time. and especially in this period of readjustments, how fl was progressing. It is proposed to com tinue the report and to extend it so as to make it more broadly representative.
 General conclusions are often danger. ous. but the foregoing facts seem to warrnat a few suggestions. In the first place, the report shows an improved condition over that of the summer and also of September. The volume of un- employment among industrial workers has been positively diminished This. of course, is most gratifying and encour- aging. On the other hand. the report

It seem: reasonable to conclude, therefore, that much remains to be done before ''eoot business may be said to have been completely restored.
 Among the things that remain to bt done there is doubtless to be included further adjustments within many line: Of industry. Moreover, it must be re nlembered that such conditions as the present make for the keenest kind O competition for a share in the lir.-.. z amount of business avails ble Conse- quently: Connecticut industry is facing q period when more will be required O both mana cement and men than evel before, if it is to bod it's proper plae in the nation and the world. Beside the keen ccnnattion with factories i, ether states, Connecticut industries ar already feeling again severe competition from abroad which on account of tn war, has been suspended for nearly sev en yoars.

 PEERLESS ORCHESTRA
INDUSTRIES WORKING
 AT 62 4 DEB c1eNT oE Nopx,


 The Manufacturers Association of Connecticut has placed in the hands of it's members it's current monthly report of the condition of industry in this state While. primarily. reports of this asso- ciation are the concern of it's members only, consideration of the unusual con- ditions of the times, together with the fact that almost every business and 1n- yidual in Connecticut has a vital inter- est in the prosperity Of our industries, it seems only proper that some of the facts of the states industrial situation be made generally available Problems in Connecticut today are mutual and if they are to find successful solution, common understandings are a first es- sential
 According to the association reports, Connecticut industries in October were operating at aH average of 62.6 per cent. Of normal While this is an in- pavement over September, when the averafge figure was 57.9, it indicates g general average condition far from sat isfactory. For the eleven districts of l, the state covered in this report, the com nunity averages range from as high as l 96 per cent. of normal to as low as 4s per cent. of -rerr7a! The ht9b oerc ent : age represents Danburv. devoted almos | exc'usively to hat making, which indus try has enjoyed very busy season. NJ i other community represented in the re i port is within 9 points of the Danbury l figure, and if Danbury was not included i the average for the whole would be ma terially lower.
 The associations report is so distrib uted, both geographically and by in I.dustres as to be a fair index of our in dustrial conditions. It is based on tn actual state of industrial activity in 21' plants normally employing nearly one half of the total aggregate number 0 persons officially reported as engaged in industry last year. The only excep ton which should be notad is that tn. report does not completely cover all O I the districts where textile mapuf" chr CTS predominaTe. and it is well know that textile mills have been mora antiv in recent months than some other lines Tn order that the renort referred | may be better understood a word shoult be said as to how it is comnilad and as peically as to what it meant by "nor ma" In this rn~ort "norree"' fe ~o based on conditions of any pre-wa year nor on conditions Of war time -neal production. Instead, each plant deter mined for itself the number of employe required to operate all of it's Dreson equipment, and the maximum numbe of hours of work per weAl1. any addi+io to which would be regarded as overtime The product of these two gives the mum Der of man-hours per week in norma
