1942U. Income
Breaks Record
AT III Billions

NEW YORK, March 6.-Preli-
minary figures show that the an
nual national income produced in
the United States in 1912 was the
largest on record, rising to S121,-
$4,000, 900 from S94, 700. 600. 900 in
1941. according to the Alexander
Hamilton Institute. The 1912 ma
tional income was three times the
depression's low of $40,074, 900, 900
in 1882 and il was far in excess OF
the pre-depression income of S82,-
1856, 000, 900 in 1929.
During 1912, the national income
showed steady rise from ST.
556. 000,0 900 in February to a peak
of S12 ,084 .000,O 900 in October and
then declined to $11. 100, 600. 900 in
December. The decline during the
last two months of the year was
due primarily to the usual seasonal
Icurtailment in the shipments of
agricultural products.
A further recession in the ship
ment Of farm products apparently
occurred in January and it may be
assumed that this recession has
continued in February. Conse-
quently. ii may be expected that
when the figures are available for
the first two months of 1943, they
will show that the downward
trend of the national income dur
ing November and December was
extended during January and
February
The prospect is. however, that
THE national income will resume
its upward trend in March and
that it will then show relatively
steady expansion until il reaches a
record high peak in October. The
annual national income in 1913
: should be larger than the record
high figure in 1912.
/ The increase in the annual ma
tional income in 1912 10 a record
high level was due partly to an
expansion in the quantity OF goods
! produced and partly TO a rise in
the price level. Prices showed
an almost tinuous advance
throughout the year and in De-
cember reached new high peak
for the war period. An expansion
in the quantity OF goods produced
occurred in all three of the major
: economic fields, agriculture, min
T ing and manufacturing.
