Figures dealing with industrial activities in this coun try are apt tfc be misleading and to give a more pessimistic impression of manufacturing conditions than is justi fied. This is because most all compar isons are made with condit'ons as they existed in 1920 or 1919, at which time the industrial world was at the flood tide of activity. An example of this misinterpreta tion is as follows: During the war thero was scarcely an industry increas ed K capacity. A considerable per centage of them doubled and tripled their capacity. The increased capac ity which they then created in order to meet the war-time demand?, still exists. vWhen it is stated, then, that a certain industry today is only workiu,; 60 of Its capacity ,is should be kept in mind that this Is 60 of its war time capacity. It is using 60- of its war facilities, instead of 60 of its pre-war facilities. This means that in comparison with its output prior to the war it is now rnnniner nrlv normal To illustrate - EleCtS Officials I " a Plant increased its capacity 0 during tne war, its. present capacity is 150?0 as compared with 100 in pre war years Therefore, if this plant to day is running 60 capacity, it is run. ning 60 of its present facilities which is equivalent to 90 per cent of its pre-war facilities; to that such a plant compared with pre-war days is realJy running only 10 below normal. An apt illustration of this is furnish ed by the present situation in the steel industry. Market reports shev iht the steel industry is running only 30 per cent capacity. This means about 17,500,000 tons a year on the basis it i the present capacity of 52. HOI. 000 lo:i a year. But in 1914 the capacity of the rteel industry wa? only about 35,000.- 000 tons. During the war thr? capacity of the steel industry was increased 50 cent, or to the figures named above. The present output of the steel Indus try. 17,500,000 tons a year, while only one-third of its present capacity. Is one half of its pre-war capacity. And, in point of fact, the pre-war capacity w;i3 seldom utilized 100 p;r cent. In i! i 2 and '13 the production was only ?.(, 000.C00 tons, while the best previous year, 1910,-r-showed production of only 25,000,000 tons. These figures il lustrate the necessity, in order to as certain how present production com pares with normal conditions, of com paring present production with produc tion prior to the war instead of pro duction during the war and also ' of comparing present production with capacity production in prewar times, rather than comparing it with capacit? facilities which now exist. The same principle applies to other Industrial and commercial data. The people are apt to forget in reading statistics which show a tremendous slump as compared with last, year and the year before were "peak" years in the commercial and industrial world. An. example of this is furnished by the recent statement of our foreign trade, which showed a great decline from the years of 1920 and 1919, but when com pared with trade in 1912 or 1913, which were normal pre-war years, the differ ence is not so striking. In point of fact. the trade reports show that our. ex ports to Germany for the current fis cal year are greater than they were in the year 914. It would not be tru? or fair to state that there has not been a decline in wages, foreign trade and industrial out put, but in studying this decline onu must remember that too pessimistic a conclusion c;:n be reached by coin-1-aring data of today with data of the nbnormal years of 1919 and 1920. To get a la"r apreciation of the real status of the country, comparisons should b-j made v. uh t-:e normal times which existed prior to 1914. ordeal and watching the operation, re fusing to be given an anaesthteic.
