New York, Oct. 27.-The total na- tOnal income of the United States in 1918 was 61 billion dollars. as com pared with 344 billions in 1913; but this increase in dollars did not repre- sent like increase in production. Most of it was due to the rise in prices, for the dollar of 1918 and 1919 was much less efficient dollar than that of 1913. The actual total of commodities pro duced increased very little, if at all, and large part of those which were produced were war materials, not of a kind really benefiting consumers.
 Consequently, individual incomes, estimated on per capita basis, rising from $34O in 1910 and $354 in 1913, to $5S6 in 1918, represent more dollars but little or no real increase, because the S586 of 1918 Is equivalent to only $372 in terms of the purchasing power of 1913.
 These are the most important ind ings of the National Bureau of Eco homie Research, made public today in advance of the formal publication of the results of a years study of ''Income in the United States" This study, the most exhaustive ever made of the income question in this country, has been conducted by Wesley Clair Mitchell, Milford I. King, Frederick R. Macaulay and Oswald w. Knauth, under the auspices and direction of a board of nineteen directors, including men prominent in many fields of busi- ness, education, labor, agriculture, eco- monies and practical statistics, and representing many divergent points of view.
 This table exhibits the main find ings, including the equivalent value of per capita income in terms of the 1913 purchasing power:
The St. Johns herald., 1921-11-10

ture contributes about IT per cent of the total, manufacturing about 30 per cent, transportation about g per cent, government about 5 per cent, mining a little more than per cent, banking a little over per cent. The many miscellaneous employments, prOfeS- sional men, retailers, jObberS, mer- chants, dOmesticS, etc, too numerous to list specifically, contribute 33 per cent. In other words, our highly or ganized industries, even if we include all manufacturing, mining, transpOrta- tion, banking, and government activi- ties such as education and rOad-build- ing, produce only about half of the nR- tional income. The rest is due to the efforts of small independent workers.
 income Tax Discrepancies.
 The report estimates that the num- Der of persons in 1918 having incomes over $2,OOO, was 5,3O0OOO, and that their total income was over 9 billion dollars. Income tax returns, however, showed only 2,9OS,OO0 persons having over $2O00, and their total reported income was less than 14 billion dol lars. This discrepancy is due in part to technical evasiOns and straight ille- gal withholdingS, but also in part to the existence of tax-exempt income. W hat this means in terms of the inc come tax is that the government re- ceived in 1918 about half billion dol lars less than 1t would have, if all persons receiving 5000 had paid their full amount.
 Contribution of Housewives.
 The contribution of the 20,0O0,0O0 American housewives is not included by the bureau in the national income because they are not paid in money. But the report points out that if they were paid at the lowest possible figure (the average recOmpense of personal and domestic service) their addition to the total national income would be about one-third, or IS billions. On that basis, the bureau gives the follow ing cOnjectural figure as to the fiuctua- ton of the housewife's contribution to the national income since 1909:

 Individual Contribution

plstrlhutlon of Ineome.

The report says that only one out of hundred q per cent) income re- ceivers in the United States in 1918 had incomes of $8,OOO or more, and that this one per cent had IA per cent of the national income. Five per cent, representing incomes above $3,2OO, had 26 per cent of the total. Ten per cent, including income above $2,3OO, had nearly 35 per cent of the total i; the most prosperous 20 per cent, in- cluding income above $1, ,75O, had about 47 per cent. Eighty per cent of the income receivers had incomes below $1,750, receiving about 5 per cent of the total income.
 Shares of Labor and Capital.
 In most of the years since 1912, the bureau finds that in the principal or ganized industries, wages and salaries were about 70 per cent of the total in- come; while capital Qncluding man. agement) received about 30 per cent, out of which were paid rent, interest and profits; but these proportions va rfed materially with relative prosper ity and depression. In 1916, for ex- ample, the share of capital increased to about 35 per cent, with 65 per cent to labor. while in 1919 capitals share fell to about 9 per cent, while labor got about 7S. Of the total payments to employees in the highly organized industries. about 92 per cent goes to the manual workers and clerical staffs. while per cent goes to officials.
 Share of the Farmer.
 The farmers, who during the past decade have made up about 16 Der cent of the total of gainfully employed, had from 12 to 13 per cent of the na- tiOnal income in the years between 1910 and 1916 inclusive; since 1917 they have been receiving 16 to r per cent, or somewhat higher propOr- tiOn, as the following figures from the report show:

 How the Bureau Is Constituted.
 The National Bureau of Economic Research Ges organized after the war by a group of persons who had come to realize the need for accurate and scientific collation. of statistical infor- nation as a basis for intelligent solu- ton of national problems.

Frey, editor of the International MOlders' Journal i: Edwin F. Gay, president of the New York Evening Post; Harry W.

 It is a rule of the bureau that each director must approve the findings of the research staff, or state his spe- ciflc objections as part of the report. In this way, bias is eliminated, for methods and results are under con- stant supervision from men whose points of view are dissimilar.

The Sport of Doers

One of this country's prominent physicians recently probed into the question why men smoke.
 He turned a deaf ear to glib preius sdices and to accepted but haf-thought- out notions. He based his conclusions upon a careful study of the use of to- bacco by our men during the War.
 He diagnosed smoking as being clearly a diversiopJ which helped rather than interfered with a mans performance of his duty.
 Smoking is not vicious practice but a happy sport. If it were not, this expert declares, men would long ago have begun taking "My Lady Nico- tine" in the form of pills or tablets.
 That's straight to the point. A man lights up his pipe for little relaxations not to interfere with but to improve his work.
 He feels in need of a moments lete up which will add to his power.
 Back he throws himself in the most comfortable position in the old chair; he scratches his match slowly, care-

Send Wives Out of Peril Russ Fear Assassination

PARIS, Aug. 24-Having nothing else to export, the Bolsheviks, says a letter from Moscow, have decided to export their wives. Madame Trotsky, Madame Radek and Madame Zino- vieoff are already, it appears. on their way to Kovno, whence. with the permission of the Lithuanian govern ment, they may seek to travel fur ther into Europe. They will, says the Moscow letter, live in the strict est incognito-in fact like the exiled expresses and queens of the old re- gime. and like the 60,000 Russian refugees whom France already shel- ters.
 It is especially the Trotsky group of Bolsheviks who are seeking to place their wives in safe asylum.
