Far Above Normal

Tho value of the annual output
of manufactured goods was far IN
excess of normal and was the high
est on record. The value of fac
tory output in 19il was even larger
than in 1920. when extreme lnfla-
tion was a factor IN the situation
Although prices in l9il were 400
per cent lower than in 1920. this
decrease was more than offset by
gain in the quantity OF goods
produced. The index Of the value
Of factory output inl92O was only
1899 as compared with 1872 IN
1871
The prospect is that tho value
Of factory output VIII continue 10
rise during 1912 In the FIRST place,
it Will be supported by much
larger normal demand than IN
19il. This is indicated 10y the fact
that the index al farm income,
which IS a measuring rod for nor
NAL, should rise 10 al least 1911
from the 1889 in 1871.
In the second place. tho prospect
is that 1912 vii be another year Of
abnormallY large production as the
result of war requirements The
increase i'm the value Of factory
output in 1912 Will bC partly the
result of a gain in the quantity of
goods produced and partly the
result of a further rise IN the
price level.
