Petroleum refneries in the first four
months of 1928 reported an output
averaging STA per cent above the 1919
production. This was nearly double
the rate Of increase in production of
steel. Output of that commodity
averaged ISL per cent higher than in
1919.
Textile mills showed the third
greatest advance with an average out
put 23.6 per cent higher than in the
postwar boom year. Paper, lumber
tobacco and food followed in the order
named.
The slight slowing down in produce
ton of the last two or three weeks is
due to seasonal causes almost entirely,
it is believed. although exact data to
support this view are not yet available
