Personal Income
Hits New High

Personal income In Delaware

of Commerce says.
The figure will be reported in
the August issue of the Depart

The departments Philadelphia
office extracted material from
the national report for Della
ware, Pennsylvania, Maryland
and New Jersey and published
It over the weekend with COM
parsons to 1859. There was no
indication why 1859 was selected
for comparison.
On this basis, 1862 personal
income In Delaware was IL per
cent higher than three years
earlier, the department said.
A breakdown of the 1862 data
attributed 1913 million of per-
sonal income In Delaware to
wages and salaries. OF this, $410
million was accounted for by
manufacturing industries, $129
million by government en-
'ployment and $121 million by
wholesale and retail trades en-
ployment.
Property income, 1893 mil
lion, ranked next to wages and
salaries as a major source of
Delaware earning power.
