Advancing
Relative Position In
Industry In Face OF outputs
Sharp Decline

Southern furniture manufacture
ers continue to improve their rela-
tive position in the country's pro-
duction despite the fact that all
sections register a sharp decline in
total output, the carloading figures
for the first nine months of 1882
just released reveal.
An interesting analysis of the
figures is given by ]. 7. Ryan,
secretary Of the Southern Furni-
ture Manufacturers association,
who says ut is interesting to note
that the carload movement of fur
niture from the southern district
represented 45.3 per cent of the
total for the United States, where
as in 1929 it represented only 1914
per CEN of the total. In other
words, nearly one-half of the car
load movement of furniture by
railroads for the first nine months
of 1882 moved from he-southern
district
Mr.. Ryan points out also that
the decline of carloadings to one
third of the figure for 1929, when
1860 carloads were listed, does
not mean necessarily that furni-
ture production has dropped to the
extent of the carload movement.
The less-than-carload movement
which is not included in the figures
has greatly increased and likewise
the movement by truck has in
creased. The figures do indicate,
however, hat the movement of
furniture has decreased materially
in the past several years.
W. believe the southern branch
lof the industry is finding a fail
share of the total business" Mr.
Ryan stated.
The figures reveal that the move
ment for the period represented a
decline of 40 per cent for the same
; period Of 1881. The largest loss
