NEW YORK (AP) An expendi
ture of about 30 per cent of our na
tional Income waa required In 1933 to
feed our people. Thla demand hss
given work, directly or Indirectly, to
about half of the people now employed.-
The latest available government
statistics for food and kindred pro
ducts show that employment stood at
87.1 per cent of the basic aversge
mat or the 13 months of 1926. In
manufacturing Industries aa a wriole.
employment waa down to 59.9 per
cent. Payroll totala stood at 69.7 per
cent, against 39.9 per cent for general
industry.
Compared with Industrial classifi
cations generally the food companies
nave resisted the onslaughts of de
pression reasonably well, according to
figures for the first nine months of
1033.
The Industry has had Its disturbing
factors during the year, but we be
lieve that they are largely of tempor
ary significance due to the current
business situation, and do not destroy
me long range outlook lor thla rela
tively basic business.
During the list three yeara millions
of people have returned to the farm,
and more mllllona are raising their
own vegetables and fruits. Commod
ity prices have experienced drastic de
clines. There have been price dlatur-
oancea ana uneconomlcally low In
ventories.
These factors have appeared durlnir
other major depressions, however, and
should begin to clear up with any
iurn oi Duymg power and confi
dence. The Industry has veduced op
erating expenses, and many compan
ies appear to be "quick on their feet"
ready to take advantage of shifting
conditions.
