$500 million over December and
reflects higher social security taxes
that went into effect January i In
spite Of increased taxation the So
cial security system is still run
ming in the red, but this is sup
posed to be a temporary situation
Finally, housing starts show this
segment Of the economy is still
strong. The January figure, on a
seasonally adjusted annual basis
was $50 900. This was a decline
from December. which was Of boom
proportions, but it is the highest
January since 1855. and except for
December is the highest for any
month since June, 1855. In 1855 to-
tai nonfarm housing starts, both
private and public, were | $3.50 900.
In 1858 the figure was 1900 900.
This year is expected to be just as
good. or perhaps a shade better,
but no one is predicting we will
reach the 1855 total.
Construction as whole in Janu-
airy was 10 per cent above a year
earlier. Private OUTLAWS showed a
smaller percentage increase than
public expenditures. Construction
as a whole this year will come to
something above $50 billion.
OF these three items only housing
really offers any evidende of a slow
down in the recovery. and this is
not too impressive. 1t was hardly
expected that housing starts could
continue at the December rate, and
it was not desirable that they do
SO. Such thing could have led Us
into a housing boom. which would
not be favorable to the long term
growth Of the nation.
As a matter Of fact some slow
down in the rate of recovry was

Business recovery continues to
move forward and upward. The
rate may not be as rapid as few
months ago, but there is no ques-
ton as to the direction. Three
broad items make this clear:
| First. industrial production, as
measured by the Federal Reserve
Board Index. advanced in January
for the ninth consecutive month
The one point rise in the index. to
l43. is now only two points below
the progression peak Recovery in
this field is over SO per cent.
Equally important. the rise was
in both durable and non-durable
goods. The latter is currently some
four per cent above the pre-reces-
sion peak: durable goods production
still is about five per cent above
the progression peak durable
4 goods production still is about five
per cent below the peak of August
1857. The relatively poor showing
Of durable production is partly &C
counted for by a glass strike cur
failing production by Chrysler. and
partly by a reduced level of out
put in the farm machinery field.
Mineral production also covered
by this index-was down one point
because of declines in coal mining
and oil and gas well drilling Other
mineral production was up. but not
enough to offset these declines.
Secondly. personal income in
creased about S24 billion in Janu-
airy. In December there had been
a slight decline because year-end
dividends were off sharply In jan
uary there was more than full
recovery in this item
The larger portion Of the increase
in personal income. however. was
in wage and salary disbursements.
and the most notable rise here was
in commodity producing industries
as contrasted with distributive and
service industries.
The only broad category Of per-
sonal income which did not show
an increase in January was trans
fer payments. which consists pri-
marlly Of veterans and social in
surance benefits. On an annual ba-
Sis these we're SIG billion. Last
September was the peak of these
payments at Just a billion dollars
higher. The growth Of these trans
fer payments has been fabulous.
As late as 1852 they were only one
half the present volume. and for
all of 1856 they amounted to less
than SO billion. Personal contribu-
tons of employees and self-em-
ployed for social insurance have
been advancing at about the same
rate In 1852 such contributions
were 1913 billion il 1856 they were
S5.7 billion and in January 1889.
they were at an annual rate Of S76
