the BUSINESS SITUATION

JL HE May statistics on businessactivity gave further support to whatthe April data had suggested: Totaloutput and sales in the second quarterhave increased at a good pace, but therate of advance has been well belowthat of the two preceding quarters;moreover, the slowdown in the demandincrease has centered in the consumersector, chiefly durable goods and espe-pecially automobiles. These changeshaVe occurred while upward pressureson industrial prices have continuedstrong.

The comprehensive payroll figuresafford a good indication of how thetempo of the advance has changed.They were up by $2.2 billion (seasonallyadjusted annual rate) from April toMay and brought the May total to apoint $6X billion above February. Thegain over the past 3 months has beensomewhat greater than the averagequarterly rise from 1964 to 1965 butlow&r than the $9 billion increases thattook place in the last quarter of 1965and the first quarter of this year.

On the demand side, it appears thatactivity this spring has advanced main-ly under the stimulus of rising plant andequipment expenditures and defenseoutlays'. However, consumer demand,after two quarters of extraordinaryincrease, has lost some of its buoyancy.According to the advance report forMay, retail sales declined (seasonallyadjusted) for the second straight month,chiefly because of lower sales of durablegoods. For both automobiles and otherdurable goods, the rate of sales so farin the second quarter is running belowthe first; for nondurables, it is some-what higher.

Last month, wholesale industrialprices rose 0.4 percent as a result ofwidespread price increases among thevarious commodity groups, but farmprices were lower and processed foodprices not much changed. Conse-

quently, for the 3d month in a row,there was little change in the overallwholesale price index. The rise inindustrial prices was the fifth straightmonthly increase this year and broughtthe annual rate of advance sinceDecember to approximately 8)2 percent.

Auto sales decline further

The slump in new car sales thatbegan in April continued in May.After a seasonally adjusted drop of 13percent from March to April, retailsales of domestically built passengercars fell 7 percent last month. Com-bined sales for April and May were 15percent below the first quarter rate.Aside from the strike-affected fallmonths of 1964, the May rate of newcar sales was the lowest since June 1964.However, sales improved in the first 10days of June.

New car inventories held by dealershave been rising steadily since Januaryand in May increased by 100,000 units,the largest monthly addition in thecurrent model year. End-of-Maystocks, seasonally adjusted, were at anew peak of 1.5 million units. Relativeto sales, dealers' stocks now representtwo and one-half times the May rateof deliveries, as compared with a stock-sales ratio of 1.78 in the first quarterof this year and 1.86 in the finalquarter of 1965.

Reflecting the lower rate of sales andrelatively high inventories, passengercar production was cut back fairlysharply in May. It was the firstsignificant reduction in assemblies in thecurrent business expansion, except forthe loss of output due to work stoppages.On the other hand, truck production,where demand from business and

government continued strong, has beenmaintained at about record rates.The auto industry is shutting down formodel changeovers somewhat earlierthan in 1965, and for some models, theshutdown will be for longer periodsthan last year.

Steel adds to output rise

The reduction in auto assemblieswas the chief factor limiting the rise(seasonally adjusted) in industrial pro-duction from April to May. TheFederal Reserve index increased closeto 1 percent over the month, paced bysizable advances in business and defenseequipment, a substantial pickup insteel production, and the recovery ofcoal production from the April strikes.

The May increase in steel milloperations—about 4 percent—marked

the 6th straight month of advance.Steel ingot output in May, at anannual rate of about 141 million tonson a seasonally adjusted basis, was thehighest since the early summer monthsof 1965, when steel users were pressingthe mills for strike-hedging tonnage.Steel output has increased about 30percent since November 1965.

With consumption at a record rate,the steel inventory adjustment bymanufacturing consumers, underwaysince September 1965, seems to beabout over. There was some liquida-tion of stocks in April, but the reductionwas only 100,000 tons (unadjusted);this compares with an average monthlydecline of 700,000 tons in the firstquarter and of 1.4 million tons in theprevious quarter. At the end of April,

manufacturing consumers' stocks weredown to 10.8 million tons from a highof 17.2 million tons in August 1965,the peak of the 1965 steel inventorybuildup. This carryover was thelowest since December 1964 and, interms of the April rate of consumption,represented a 38-day supply, a levelof inventories that has prevailed inearlier periods of fairly normal operat-ing conditions. With steel productionin May near a record rate and con-sumption held down somewhat by thecutback in automobile production, steelstocks held by manufacturing con-sumers may well show some increasein May.

First quarter profits higher

The regular estimates of first quartercorporate profits were about the sameas the preliminary figures presentedlast month. Including the inventoryvaluation adjustment, profits beforetaxes rose $2.9 billion to a seasonallyadjusted annual rate of $78.1 billion.Durable goods manufacturers accountedfor almost $2 billion of the rise andnondurable goods producers for mostof the remainder. The advance inprofits was due mainly to the unusuallylarge increase in output in the firstquarter and also to a rise in profitmargins, as chart 2 shows.

Federal Fiscal Position

The Federal fiscal position improvedsharply in the first quarter. Withfurther improvement likely in theApril-June quarter (from the step-up inreceipts because of the new graduatedwithholding rates and the restorationof certain excises), the fiscal 1966 deficitshould be somewhat lower than the$2.2 billion estimated in the Januarybudget (national accounts basis).

Recent estimates of fiscal 1966receipts by the Treasury Departmentand the Joint Committee on InternalRevenue show corporate and personalincome tax receipts running well aboveearlier estimates. Expenditures areexpected to match budget projectionsclosely. On balance, since no new meas-ures of fiscal restraint beyond thosecalled for in the January budget wereintroduced, most of the fiscal 1966

improvement reflects higher-than-pro-jected levels of economic activity.

Federal deficit fallsThe Federal budget position on a

national income and product accountsbasis moved to-virtual balance in thefirst quarter of 1966, despite a $6%billion rise in expenditures, the largestabsolute increase since the Koreanwar period. This increase was morethan offset by an upsurge in receipts,about $8% billion at a seasonallyadjusted annual rate. As a result, theFederal fiscal position moved from a$1% billion deficit in the fourth quarterto a surplus of about $% billion in thefirst.

The advance in first quarter receiptswas paced by a $6% billion rise insocial insurance contributions, a resultof the boost in social security tax ratesfrom 7.25 to 8.4 percent and of theexpansion in the wage base from $4,800to $6,600. Sharp increases in personalincome and corporate profits during thequarter raised personal and corporatetax receipts substantially. Personaltaxbs rose over $2 billion and corporatetax liabilities rose $1% billion. Highnet final settlements on 1965 personaltax liabilities also contributed to thestrong advance in personal taxes andare expected to increase further in the

second quarter. Graduated withhold-ing rates on wages and salaries thatwere introduced in early May are

.estimated to add more than $% billion(annual rate) to second quarter per-sonal tax receipts.

Indirect business taxes fell in thefirst quarter as a result of the $1%billion reduction in excise taxes. Thecut was partially canceled in mid-March when Congress restored the ex-cises on passenger automobiles and ontelephone and teletypewriter service topre-January 1 levels. The budget im-pact of the restored excise taxes—about $1 billion at annual rates—willbe felt in the second quarter.

Nearly half of the large rise in ex-penditures occurred in national defensepurchases as military procurement forVietnam jumped sharply during thequarter. Purchases of goods and ser-vices for civilian purposes were up onlymoderately. Grants-in-aid, transferpayments, and net interest paid alsomoved up strongly. Higher outlaysfor education and public assistanceprograms accounted for most of therise in grants. New programs of socialsecurity assistance, such as liberalizedbenefits for widows, children, and thedisabled, contributed to the step-up intransfers. Higher interest rates ac-counted for most of the marked advancein net interest paid.

Residential Construction ActivityTHE increased stringency in credit con-ditions apparent this year has intro-duced considerable uncertainty into theoutlook for honaebuilding activity forthe rest of 1966, despite the continuedstrong flow of consumer income. Thisuncertainty follows a period whenhousing starts in a number of largemetropolitan areas were reduced tocorrect overbuilding, particularly ofapartment houses and especially in theSouthwest and along the West Coast.

Outlays level off this spring

So far in 1966, current-dollar outlaysfor private nonfarm residential struc-tures have fluctuated within the rela-tively narrow range evident since the

spring of 1964. Outlays rose $1 billionin the first quarter of this year to aseasonally adjusted annual rate of$27.6 billion but appear to have leveledoff this spring.

Construction costs have shown sonxesigns of accelerating this year. In thefirst quarter, costs were some 4 percentabove those a year earlier, as comparedwith increases of about 3 percent duringthe 2 previous years. Constant-dollarresidential outlays, which make allow-ance for higher costs, also appeared toshow a pickup in the first quarter and aleveling this spring. However, in con-trast to the current-dollar expenditures,real outlays have been in a moderatedowntrend over the past 2 years or so;

since the recent peak in the first quarterof 1964, real outlays have declinedabout 8 percent.

The short-run changes in real ex-penditures reflect the pattern of housingstarts with a lag of almost one quarter.

SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS June 1966

Private nonfarm starts rose to a season-ally adjusted annual rate of 1.55 millionunits in the fourth quarter of last yearand fell back to a rate of 1.49 millionin the first quarter. The first quarterrate was about the same as the rate for1965 as a whole and some 10 percentbelow the first quarter 1964 peak.Starts have declined somewhat morethan real expenditures because of thetrend toward units of higher qualityand cost.

Starts edged down from March toApril and dropped sharply in May,Data on housing permits, which nor-mally lead starts slightly, suggest adeveloping weakness in homebuildingsince seasonally adjusted permits thisApril and May were some 9% percentbelow the first quarter 1966 average.

Regional patterns differ

Regional figures have shown diversetrends in housing starts over the past 2years or so (chart 3). Through the endof 1965, starts rose in the two northernregions, decreased slightly in the South,and showqd a sharp and prolonged de-cline in the West.

The overall strength of the economy,especially the durable goods manufac-turing sector, was unquestionably im-

portant in sustaining housing activity inthe heavily industrialized Northeast.and North Central regions throughout1965. In addition, these areas havewitnessed considerable demolition ofolder dwelling units, especially urbanapartment and tenement buildings, forwhich replacement structures have beenerected. The easing of starts in theSouth reflected largely a drop in apart-ment construction in the major metro-politan areas of Texas, after verysubstantial increases—apparently in ex-cess of demand—from 1960 to 1963.Overbuilding accompanied by high va-cancy rates was also an acute problemin the West; the correction that began2K years ago. has been severe and hasbrought starts below their 1960 level.

This spring, both starts and permitsdata have shown some departure fromrecent trends. According to permitsdata, which are somewhat less irregularthan starts, homebuilding activity hasfallen considerably in the northern re-gions and has edged down a littlefurther in the West and in the South.

struction accounted for most of thechange in total private housing starts.Multifamily housing rose sharply untillate 1963 and early 1964 and thenexperienced a brief but fairly substan-tial cutback because of rising vacancyrates. Since the middle of 1964, whenconstant-dollar housing activity startedto show a decline, there has been rela-tively little change in the mix of singlefamily and multifamily housing. Untilvery recently, single family starts fluc-tuated within a rather narrow range.Multifamily starts have been roughlystable at about 15 percent below theirrecent quarterly peaks- but more thandouble their level of 1959-60.

Seasonally adjusted data on startsare not available by type of structure.To judge from seasonally adjusted per-mit statistics, both single family andmultifamily units in the first quarter of1966 were about the same as their 1965quarterly averages. However, bothdeclined this spring with the singlefamily starts off sharply and the multi-family down only slightly.

Single family housing starts

Demographic factors are mainly re-sponsible for the failure of single familyhousing starts to show any markedchanges over the past 5 or 6 years.Although incomes have risen substan-tially over this period and mortgagefunds, until recently at least, havegenerally been ample, the number ofpersons 25 to 44 years old—the mostimportant home-buying age group—has been quite stable. Data publishedby the Census Bureau show that salesof single family housing erected bymerchant builders have been steady atabout 50,000 per month, seasonallyadjusted, for more than 3 years (mid-dle panel, chart 4). Sales showed aslight pickup in the fourth quarter of1965 and a small dip in the first quarterof 1966.

The difficulties in accurately gagingdemand have led to some mild cyclicalmovements in starts by merchant build-ers since 1960. For example, in 1963,starts increased moderately without acorresponding rise in sales; as a result,inventories of unsold new houses rose,reaching a peak around the middle of

1964. With sales about unchanged, acutback in starts reduced unsold stocksfrom the second half of 1964 through thefirst quarter of this year. Judging bythe limited experience of the CensusBureau survey, stocks of unsold homeshave been quite low relative to salessince late last year, even though thefirst quarter 1966 ratio was slightlyabove the fourth quarter 1965 figure.

Multifamily housing

The most remarkable aspect of themultifamily housing market is not thatstarts are down from their peaks of late1963 and early 1964 but that they haveheld up so well. On an annual basis,multifamily starts in 1965 were only 8percent below 1963, the recent annual

high. There are several underlyingreasons for the comparatively high rateof multifamily housing. Demographicfactors are undoubtedly important:The number of very young householdheads, who typically rent rather thanbuy, began to increase a few years agoand is expected to grow considerablyover the next several years. Apart-ment house construction has been verystrong in suburban areas, which havehad large population growth and whichup to a few years ago had shown rela-tively little construction of this type.Multifamily construction was com-paratively low throughout the 1930's,1940's, and 1950's, and the apartmenthouse stock was in need of a majorrenewal. The many new conveniencesintroduced in modern apartment houseshave undoubtedly attracted many fam-ilies and individuals.

The decline in apartment house con-struction from the peaks reached morethan 2 years ago was dampened becausecutbacks in response to increased vacan-cies did not occur simultaneously in allregions. While starts were being re-duced in some areas, they were stillrising in others, and in some areas thatcompleted their adjustment to over-building relatively early, starts beganto increase once again.

According to Census data, the na-tional vacancy rate for rental units—which include a substantial proportionof single family houses for rent—wasslightly lower in the first quarter of1966 than in the corresponding 1965period. For both years, vacancy rateswere above those prevailing in early1963 and 1964.

A more detailed view of the apart-ment house situation is provided by theannual FHA vacanc)y survey of FHArental projects. On a national basis,the 1965 data show a small rise in thevacancy rate over early 1964, whichshowed a rather sharp increase overearly 1963. Among the largest metro-politan areas, changes in vacancy ratesfrom 1964 to 1965 were mixed outsideof the Southwest and the West Coast,where rates were uniformly higher andat very high levels. The 1966 resultsare not yet available. Apartment con-struction has been sharply curtailed inthose metropolitan areas with unusually

high vacancy rates. Last year, forexample, permits for apartment unitsdeclined almost 35 percent in SanFrancisco, about 40 percent in Houston,Dallas, and San Diego, and 50 percentin Los Angeles.

Mortgage markets tight

This spring, homebuilders and homebuyers have been faced with the mostunfavorable credit market conditionssince 1959. Even though there hasbeen a substantial rise in yields avail-able on home mortgage investments,rates on other types of debt instrumentshave risen even faster, and mortgageinvestments have become relatively lessattractive. In previous postwar years,such a development has been associatedwith a reduction in funds availablefor construction and a cutback inhomebuilding.

Capital Investment To Rise Throughout 1966

BUSINJESS expenditures for new plantand equipment are expected to risethroughout 1966 to a total of $60.8billion for the year, 17 percent above1965,1 according to the OBE-SECsurvey conducted in late April and May.In the first quarter of this year, actualexpenditures were at an annual rate of$58 billion, after seasonal adjustment,.5 percent above the fourth quarter of1965. A smaller rate of increase, about3 percent per quarter, is projected forthe remaining quarters of the year.

1964-65 Actual

For both manufacturing and non-manufacturing companies, plant andequipment outlays in 1966 are nowprogramed 1 percent higher than thoseindicated in the survey made 3 monthsago. Most industry groups reducedtheir spending plans from the previoussiirvey, with the motor vehicle, textile,and mining companies reporting thelargest relative cutbacks. However,these reductions were more than offsetby the substantial upward revisions incapital budgets of transportation com-panies and producers of nonelectricalmachinery and nonautomotive trans-portation equipment. On an overallbasis, the upward revision in dollarterms was about equal to the rise incapital goods prices during the firstquarter.

Most of the upward revision in 1966capital investment programs is in thefirst half of the year. Actual outlaysin the first quarter and those antici-pated for the second were each about$% billion higher at annual rates thanplanned expenditures reported earlierthis year. Spending in the second halfis now scheduled $40T) million higherthan previously.

Factors affecting current investment

During the first quarter, the effectsof economic developments on invest-ment .were mixed. Several factors hada stimulating effect. The first quarterrise in GNP was the largest thus far inthe current expansion, and was accom-panied by large increases in businesssales and corporate profits—even higherthan business had expected earlier. Inmany industries, rates of capacity

* The reported figures for anticipations are adjusted forsystematic biases (footnote 2, table 6). Before adjustment,expenditures for 1966 were anticipated to be $59.2 billion forall industries, $26.8 billion for manufacturing, and $32.3billion for nonmanufacturing. The adjustments wereapplied separately to each major industry; their net effectwas to raise the manufacturing total about $200 million andthe nonmanufacturing $1.4 billion.

utilization rose over the quarter, and invirtually all cases were unusually high.At the end of March, for example, firmsholding over one-half of fixed assets inmanufacturing reported that their exist-ing capacity was inadequate for ex-pected operations over the next 12months. This was the highest propor-tion ever reported in this survey, whichwas initiated in December 1963.

On the other hand, some restrictivefactors were also at work. The supplyof materials and labor has becometighter. The rise in interest ratesmay have discouraged some investmentprograms. Many companies post-poned some of their plant and equip-ment projects as a result of the Presi-dent's appeal to restrain capital goodsdemand. In addition, around the timethe current reports were being filedthis spring, there was a reduction indemand for some consumer products,notably autos, but it is not clear towhat extent businessmen may haveconsidered this development in pre-paring the currently reported programs.

Quarterly movements

Capital outlays are expected torise $1.6 billion in the second quarterto an annual rate of $59.6 billion,after seasonal adjustment. Successiveincreases of about $2 billion are sched-uled for the remaining quarters, withspending in the fourth quarter expectedto reach an annual rate of $63.6 billion(table 1).

Manufacturers increased their ex-penditures in the first quarter to aseasonally adjusted annual rate of$25.6 billion, 6 percent over the fourthquarter rate. Present plans, for bothdurable and nondurable goods pro-ducers, point to a slower rate of in-crease as the year progresses. Onlynonelectrical machinery companies ex-pect the rate of rise in the second halfto be greater than in the first half.Both the auto and the nonferrousmetals industries have projected cut-backs in spending for capital goods inthe second half.

In nonmanufacturing, expendituresfor new plant and equipment alsorose substantially in the first quarter,reaching an annual rate of $32.4

are mixed, in most cases capital out-lays in the second half of 1966 areexpected to be a little higher thanduring the first half.

Manufacturers IncreasePrograms

Although investment by manufac-turers has been rising sharply and hasadded substantially to capacity, ad-ditions thus far in the current expansionhave not kept pace with rising demand.As noted above, an increasing numberof manufacturers considered their ca-pacity inadequate to meet outputrequirements over the next few quar-ters. Investment commitments havebeen undertaken on a very large scale,and the carryover of expenditures yetto be made on projects already startedwas at a record level at the end ofMarch. However, if some allowanceis made for seasonal movements, thesurvey data for the first quarterindicate only a further small rise incarryover and a decline in starts ofnew projects. These results may implythat manufacturers foresee some easingof capacity pressures from the additionsin current investment programs.

Manufacturers are planning to spend$27 billion on new plant and equipmentthis year, one-fifth more than in 1965.This rate of increase matches the 1964-65 advance. Under current plans, out-lays of durable goods producers arescheduled to reach $13.8 billion andthose of nondurable goods producers$13.2 billion. Both totals representincreases of one-fifth—about the samerates of rise as in 1965.

Under the stimulus of strong demandfor capital goods and defense products,

the nonelectrical machinery and non-automotive transportation equipmentindustries are scheduling the largestyear-to-year increases in investmentoutlays of any industry—one-third andtwo-thirds respectively. Current plansare upward revisions over plans reportedin February. In 1965, nonelectricalmachinery producers also increasedtheir expenditures for new plant andequipment by one-third; nonautomotivetransportation equipment producers byone-fifth. Electrical machinery pro-ducers plan outlays of about one-thirdmore in 1966 than in 1965. Thisprogram is little changed from plansof 3 months earlier and shows about thesame rise as in 1965.

Expenditures by the motor vehicleindustry for the year are scheduled at$2 billion, 3 percent more than in 1965;earlier plans called for a 7-percentincrease. In each of the 2 precedingyears, spending rose about one-third.Steel, nonferrous metals, and stone,clay, and glass producers also reducedtheir anticipated outlays for new plantand equipment from February plans.For each of these groups, the projected

1966 increase is smaller than the 1965advance.

Among nondurable goods industriesboth paper and textile companies areplanning substantial advances-—30 per-cent—in capital expenditures for 1966.Last year, textile companies also in-creased their capital spending 30 per-cent; paper companies increased theirs2 percent. Other nondurable goodsindustries are expanding their spendingmoderately—somewhat over the 20-percent average for the nondurablegoods group. For the nondurablegoods industries as a whole, 1966capital spending programs formulatedin May were about the same as 3months earlier. Petroleum, paper, andrubber companies raised their sights

somewhat while textile, chemical, andfood-beverage groups scaled theirsdown.

Investment carryover and starts

At the end of March, expendituresyet to be made by manufacturers oninvestment projects already startedtotaled $18.2 billion, up $1.3 billionfrom the end of December and $3.5billion from March 31, 1965. Carry-over has continued to increase relativeto prospective expenditures. At theend of the first quarter, backlogs ofuncompleted projects represented 85percent of the anticipated rate of ex-penditures for the remainder of thecalendar year, as compared with 82percent (of actual expenditures) in the

corresponding period of 1965 and 72percent in 1964.

The rise in carryover over the pastyear amounted to $2.3 billion for thedurable goods industries and $1.2 bil-lion for the nondurables. In bothgroups, backlogs of uncompleted proj-ects have continued to increase rela-tive to anticipated expenditures. Mostmanufacturing industries reported alarger amount of carryover at the endof March than a year ago, with thelargest advance in the iron and steel,nonelectrical machinery, and nonauto-motive transportation equipmentgroups.

Thus, the carryover of manufacturers'projects is obviously quite high atpresent and represents a strong under-

pinning for current investment pro-grams. However, the figures, whichare not available on a seasonally ad-justed basis, suggest that the $1.3billion increase in carryover in theopening quarter of this year was mostlyseasonal in nature. The motor vehicle,stone, clay, and glass, and food-beverageindustries actually reduced their carry-over during the first quarter, while theincrease for petroleum was probablybelow seasonal expectations. Increasesin backlogs in the machinery and otherdurable goods industries more thanoffset these reductions.

Starts of new projects by manufac-turers during the first quarter of 1966totaled $6.9 billion—up $250 millionfrom the first quarter of 1965, but $500million below the fourth quarter of lastyear. This was the smallest year-to-year and first-to-fourth-quarter risesince the series was initiated in 1963.It probably represents a decline inseasonally adjusted starts from the veryhigh fourth quarter rate. The valueof new projects undertaken during thefirst 3 months of this year was smallerthan in the first and fourth quarters of1965 in all major durable goods indus-tries except electrical and nonelectricalmachinery, where commitments fornew projects were substantially in-creased. In nondurables, the compo-nent industries reported starts in thefirst quarter equal to, or lower than,those in the fourth quarter of 1965.

Manufacturers9 evaluation of capac-ity

The latest survey indicated risingpressures on capacity. Companiesholding 51 percent of total manufactur-ing fixed assets considered their facili-ties on March 31 to be inadequate forthe next 12 months. This ratio was 3percentage points above December 1965and 9 percentage points above a yearearlier.

The rise from a year earlier in theproportion of capacity considered inade-quate was widespread among manufac-turing industries. For the durablegoods group, the figure was 52 percent,as against 42 percent at the end ofMarch 1965 and 36 percent in March1964. Both primary metal producersand metal fabricating companies re-

ported much larger increases in theinadequate proportion in the yearended March 1966 than in the yearended March 1965. In the nondurablegoods group, all the component indus-tries reported a rise in the proportionof assets considered inadequate at theend of March, as compared with a yearearlier; the percentage for the groupas a whole rose from 43 to 49. How-ever, the increases were a little smallerthan those shown from March 1964 toMarch 1965.

The proportion of assets held byfirms reporting facilities in excess ofprospective needs dropped to a low of4 percent as of March 31, with declinesfrom a year earlier general among thevarious industries. An exception wasthe primary metals industry, whichshowed no change.

Producers accounting for 45 percentof fixed assets in manufacturing feltthat their facilities were about adequatefor current and prospective needs overthe next 12 months—as compared with52 percent as of March 1965 and 58percent as of March 1964.

Nonmanufacturing Programs

Transportation companies are plan-ning to spend $5}£ billion on new plantand equipment this year. For therailroads, the planned outlays are one-fifth larger than 1965 expenditures; forother transportation companies, theyare one-fourth larger. Increases ofthese proportions would be about thesame as those realized last year.

Railroads have revised their programsupward since the survey 3 months agoand are now projecting sizable increasesin spending in each quarter. The bulkof the rise over last year's total andthe strong upward trend during 1966occur primarily in spending for equip-ment. However, more than half of theupward revision since February inplanned 1966 outlays was for roadways.

The shortage of freight cars relativeto demand continues to persist. Atthe end of March, the number of freightcars owned by railroads was about thesame as at the end of 1964 and smallerthan in the 2 preceding years—althoughthe freight cars currently being installed

New orders for freight cars placed bythe railroads during the first quarterwere at the highest levels in 10 yearsand totaled one-third more than in thecorresponding period of last year. Atthe end of April, backlogs were at thehighest point in 10 years, having risenby nearly one-third during the firstquarter.

In nonrail transportation, the airlinesaccount for most of the rise in invest-ment from 1965 to 1966; trucking firmsare planning to spend moderately morethis year. The airlines expect to spend

$1.8 billion—more than one and one-half times their 1965 outlays. Orderbacklogs for civilian aircraft are morethan two-fifths above those of a yearearlier.

Public utilities spent over $K billionmore (annual rates) on new plant andequipment in the first quarter thananticipated 3 months ago; both theelectric and gas portions of the industrycontributed to the upward revision.Electric utilities are projecting a risingrate of outlays throughout 1966, but gasutilities expect some tapering of pro-grams during the remainder of this year.

The carryover of uncompleted proj-

ects by utility companies rose sizablyin the first quarter of this year. Carry-over totaled a record $9.8 billion at theend of March, up $1.8 billion fromDecember 31, 1965, and $2.2 billionfrom a year earlier. Projects with atotal anticipated cost of $3.4 billionwere started during the first quarter ofthis year—up 2 percent from the corre-sponding period of 1965. The rise fromthe fourth quarter of last year to thefirst quarter was a little smaller than inthe corresponding periods of the 2previous years; this suggests that thisyear's, rise was probably seasonal innature.

1. Data exclude expenditures of agricultural business and outlays charged to current account.2. Estimates are based on anticipated capital expenditures reported by business in late April and May 1966. The estimates for the second and third quarters of 1966 have been adjusted

when necessary for systematic tendencies in anticipatory data. The adjustment for each industry and time period is based on the median ratio of actual to anticipated expenditures for the past5 years. However, no adjustment is made unless the anticipations have shown a bias in the same direction in at least 4 of the last 5 years and in at least two-thirds of all years since 1956.

June 1966

The communications and commercialsectors scaled down their 1966 capitalspending programs between the Feb-ruary and May surveys. Actual ex-penditures in the first quarter—at$17.7 billion—were $% billion less thananticipated earlier this year. Outlaysare expected to rise in the succeedingquarters of 1966 but at slightly lowerrates than previously scheduled.

SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS

Both the communications and thecommercial groups are expecting ex-penditures to be about one-eighthhigher than in 1965. If realized, theseincreases would be about the same aslast year for communications but some-what larger for commercial companies.Within the commercial group, whole-sale and service firms anticipate thelargest year-to-year increases.

MANUFACTURERS expect more moderatesales increases in the spring and summerquarters than they experienced in 1965and early 1966. They expect inventoryadditions to ease slightly in the secondquarter and then return to the highaccumulation rate that has prevailedsince mid-1965. These projections im-ply that stocks would be maintainedthrough September at 1.6 months ofsales, a ratio that has changed littlesince early 1965. Manufacturers' eval-uations of their inventory conditionhave also been stable from March 1965to March 1966. During this period,manufacturers holding approximatelyfour-fifths of producers' stocks con-sidered them "about right"; producersholding 15 to 16 percent of stocks con-sidered them "high"; and holders ofonly 3 to 4 percent of stocks consideredthem "low."

These findings are based on reportsfiled in May by manufacturers inOBE's quarterly expectations survey.

Modest sales gains projected

Durable goods producers expect salesto rise almost 1 percent from the first tothe second quarter and somewhat under2 percent from the second to the third,after seasonal adjustment. These in-creases follow sales gains of 4K percentin the first quarter of 1966 and 2 percentin the fourth quarter of 1965. Indus-tries that supply capital goods anddefense products expect continuingsubstantial increases in shipments, butthe motor vehicles industry anticipatessome easing from the high first quarterrate.

13

Sales gains projected by nondurablegoods producers about match those ofthe durable goods producers. A rise ofabout 1 percent is expected in the sec-ond quarter and a rise of slightly under1% percent in the third. These are nottoo different from the increases in thesecond half of last year but are muchsmaller than the 3% percent gainachieved in the first quarter of 1966.

Manufacturers' sales totaled $129.5billion in the first quarter and are ex-pected to reach $132.4 billion in thethird, with durable goods producersprojecting sales of $69.6 billion andnondurable goods producers projectingsales of $62.8 billion.

Inventory expansion continues

Durable goods producers plan to add$950 million to their stocks in the cur-rent quarter; this would match the in-ventory rise of the first quarter. Forthe third quarter, they are currentlyplanning additions of $1K billion—

equal to the peak accumulation rates ofthe current expansion. The machineryand aircraft industries expect sizableadditions to stocks in this period.

The book value of durable goodsproducers' stocks was $43.3 billion onMarch 31 and is expected to rise to$45K billion by September 30, after

seasonal adjustment. If these salesand inventory expectations eventuate,the stock-sales ratio, which was 1.94 inSeptember 1965 and 1.91 this March,will rise to about 1.95 in September.

Nondurable goods producers expectto add $300 million to their inventoriesin both the second and the third

quarters. Their anticipated additionsare below actual additions in each ofthe two previous quarters, which wereat the very high rate of $700 million.However, the projected increases arenot much different from the averagequarterly accumulation rates of 1965.Chemicals and, to a lesser extent,rubber and textile companies accountfor most of the expected rise fromMarch to September.

Nondurable goods producers' stocksare anticipated at $27 billion in Septem-ber, as compared with $26,4 billion inMarch. These levels and the salesexpectations imply maintenance of thestock-sales ratio at 1.3 months of sales.

Inventory condition, end of March

Manufacturers7 evaluation of theirinventory condition relative to theirsales and unfilled orders showed onlyminor shifts from December 31, 1965,to March 31, 1966. For both dates,companies holding 15 percent of totalinventories judged their inventories as"high." This ratio has ranged from 13to 17 percent during the past 4 years.

Producers holding 18 percent ofdurable goods stocks considered theirinventories "high" on March 31—down1 percentage point from December 31,1965, and 2 points from a year earlier.The "about right" group held 79 per-cent of inventories on March 31, 1966,and the "low" group 3 percent.

The "high" proportion for primarymetals producers fell from 9 percent inDecember to 6 percent in March andwas close to the lowest point for thecurrent expansion period. Metal fab-ricators classifying stocks as "high"reported a ratio of 20 in March—up1 point from December, with motorvehicles and fabricated metals pro--ducers accounting for the rise.

The "high" ratio for nondurablegoods producers rose from 8 percent inDecember to 10 percent in March,with the rise widespread among theindustries. The "about right" cate-gory held 85 percent of soft goodsstocks, and the "low" category 5 per-cent.

Although the number of travelers tooversea areas rose 18 percent from 1964to 1965 (table 3), a decline in averageexpenditure per traveler (excludingtransocean fares) limited the increasein total expenditures overseas to 11percent. The decline in average ex-penditures was the result of a largeincrease in the number of trips to thenearby Caribbean area and a shorteningof the average trips to Europe and theMediterranean.

Receipts from foreign visitors to theUnited States, including fares paid toU.S. transocean carriers, were nearly$1.4 billion in 1965, 10.6 percent morethan in 1964 (table 7). Canadian ex-penditures in the United States reacheda new high of $490 million. Receiptsfrom Mexico were $265 million, a riseof $15 million from the year before.Oversea visitors spent about $460 mil-lion in the United States, 15 percentmore than last year, and paid $165million to U.S. sea and air carriers.

The balance on travel expenditureswas about $1,740 million in 1965, ascompared with $1,600 million in 1964.This balance measures the differencebetween U.S. travel expendituresabroad (including U.S. fare paymentsto foreign carriers) and U.S. receiptsfrom foreign visitors (including receiptsby U.S. carriers of fares paid by foreignvisitors). These figures do not takeinto consideration the expenditures ofU.S. carriers abroad or those of foreigncarriers in the United States (includingthe share of their purchases of airplanesthat may be attributed to the transpor-tation of U.S. travelers abroad).Neither does the balance take intoaccount the fact that these funds—aswell as any funds obtained from other

U.S. transactions—add to the abilityof foreign countries to finance theirexpenditures or other obligations in theUnited States. Canada, Mexico, andother nearby countries in particularspend a relatively large part of theirforeign exchange income in the UnitedStates.

U.S. travel spending by region

In Europe and the Mediterranean,average expenditures continued theirdownward trend in 1965, but once morethe increase in the number of travelerswas large enough to raise total spending.Average expenditures of U.S. travelersin the area were $611 last year, downfrom $637 in 1964 (table 4).

The number of visitors increased lastyear in all European and Mediterra-nean countries except Ireland. How-ever, half of these countries showed adecrease or no change in their receiptsfrom U.S. travelers (table 5). InFrance, Austria, and Switzerland, thenumber of visitors did not increaseenough to offset lower average outlays,and U.S. travel spending fell. Expend-itures were the same as in 1964 for

Americans spent more money fortravel in Canada than in any othercountry last year. A 9-percent risebrought the total spent in that countryto $600 million. U.S. visitors to Mex-ico spent $500 million, about 5 percentover the 1964 figure of $480 million.

In the West Indies and Caribbeanregion, the number of U.S. travelersrose 27 percent to 890,000 last year.Together with cruise travelers (who arenot included in the total number ofvisitors), they spent a record $220million in the region. As in 1964, thechange in the number of travelers waslargest in Jamaica, where the increasewas considerably more than the areaaverage, and in the Bahamas. Dollarexpenditures, however, rose less sharply,with Jamaica and the Bahamas gaining16 percent and 13 percent respectively.

The rising trend of U.S. travel toother oversea areas reasserted itselflast year after leveling off in 1964.Dollar receipts from U.S. travelers wereup 18 percent to $145 million althoughaverage per capita spending was loweronce again. An increase of 23 per-cent brought the number of U.S. travel-ers to other oversea areas to 200,000.More than three-quarters of all travel-ers to the Pacific area visited Japan,and about half visited Hong Kong.Japan and Hong Kong earned $60 mil-lion and $18 million respectively fromU.S. travelers in 1965.

Average European trip costs reducedlast year

U.S. travelers spent an average of$1,120 for a trip to Europe last year,about $40 less per person than in 1964and a continuation of the downwardtrend evident since 1956. Transatlan-tic fares accounted for a slightly higherproportion of the total trip cost, 46percent, as compared with 45 percentin 1964.

Lodging, food,transportation within Europe, personalpurchases, and other expenses cost theaverage U.S. traveler $611 during hisvisit in Europe last year, about 4 per-cent less than in 1964. Per capita dailyexpenditures were not significantly dif-ferent from the previous year's.

Average expenses of sea travelers toEurope, at $875, were 2 percent higherlast year, but those of air travelers, at$570, were 3 percent lower. Sea trav-elers tend to stay abroad for longerperiods and spend more per trip but lessper day than air travelers. Part of theexplanation for this phenomenon is thatmany of the sea travelers are foreign-born Americans who return to theirnative lands for extended periods; the

The U.S. Balance of International Payments: First Quarter 1966

J.HE balance of the internationalpayments of the United States meas-ured on the liquidity basis—i.e., bychanges in U.S. official reserve assetsand in U.S. liabilities to all foreignresidents—was adverse by nearly $80million in the first quarter of 1966.Seasonal factors had a strong favorableinfluence on the balance, and adjust-ment for them raises the adversebalance by about $485 million.

The seasonally adjusted balance of$563 million was more adverse than thebalance of about $350 million duringthe fourth quarter of last year and theaverage quarterly balance of $340 mil-lion for 1965 as a whole. However, itwas more favorable than the adversebalance of nearly $700 million in thefirst quarter of last year.

The balance measured on the basisof official reserve transactions—con-sisting of changes in U.S. official reserveassets and in liquid and certain non-liquid liabilities to foreign central banksand other official organizations—wasadverse by about $245 million, afterseasonal adjustment. This was a verysubstantial improvement over the ad-verse balance of $1.2 billion in the lastquarter of 1965, and it also comparesfavorably with the average quarterlybalance of $325 million for 1965 as awhole.

The principal difference between thetwo balances in the first quarter ofthis year was that after seasonal ad-justment liquid liabilities to foreignprivate residents increased while thoseto foreign official organizations declined.In the preceding quarter, these liabil-ities shifted in opposite directions.

U.S. official reserves declined duringthe first quarter by $424 million, ascompared with $271 million in thepreceding quarter. Gold holdings fellby $68 million, convertible currencyholdings by $222 million, and the U.S.

gold tranche position in the Interna-tional Monetary Fund by $134 million.Net gold sales were less than in thepreceding quarter, but the decline innet sales was facilitated by a purchaseof $100 million from Canada.

Chart 11 shows the relationshipbetween the two measures of thebalance and the changes in reserveassets since 1960.

Summary of MajorDevelopments

The major developments thataffected the international transactionsof the United States in the secondhalf of last year seem to have con-tinued during the first quarter.

Effects of U.S. business activity

The rapid expansion in domesticbusiness activity and incomes con-tributed to the continuing sharp risein merchandise imports and certainservice expenditures. Merchandise im-ports reached a seasonally adjustedannual rate of $24 billion in the firstquarter as compared with $22.7 billionin the second half of 1965 and $21.5billion for 1965 as a whole. DuringMarch and April, they even exceededa $25 billion rate.

The domestic business expansionalso increased domestic capital require-ments relative to funds available forinvestments and thus contributed to afurther tightening of the domesticmoney and capital markets. Althoughthe effects of these developments onthe balance of payments cannot beseparated from those of the variousGovernment programs to restrain capi-tal outflows, it is reasonable to assumethat they-reinforced each other inachieving that result.

After taking account of $185 millionborrowed abroad by U.S. corporationsto finance their foreign investments,

The tabular presentation of theU.S. balance of payments hasbeen reorganized. In this work,the Office of Business Economicshas benefited from the advice ofthe Review Committee on Bal-ance of Payments Statistics, theSubcommittee on Economic Sta-tistics of the Joint EconomicCommittee of the Congress of theUnited States, the Executive Com-mittee of the Cabinet Committeeon Balance of Payments, and theTechnical Committee on Balanceof Payments Statistics chaired bythe U.S. Bureau of the Budget.Professor Peter Kenen of Colum-bia University served as consult-ant to the Technical Committee.

To provide comparable backdata for an extensive period,annual figures on the internationaltransactions of the United Statesare presented in the new formatback to 1946 in table 1. Thearea breakdown that used to bepart of this table is now shownseparately in table 8 for yearsbeginning with 1960.

As part of the regular June re-visions, seasonal adjustments ofthe quarterly data have been re-computed by extending through1965 the period on which theseadjustments are based. The re-vised seasonally adjusted data arepresented for the years 1960 to1965 in table 2. This table corre-sponds in format to table 1, whichcontains the data prior to seasonaladjustment. Other statistical re-visions of data presented in earlierissues of the SURVEY are, with afew exceptions, limited to 1965.

June 1966 SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS 19

the net outflow of U.S. private capitalduring the first quarter was at anannual rate of $2.8 billion, about thesame as during the previous quarter,but about half of the average annualrate during 1964 or the first quarter of1965. The outflows in the last quarterof 1965 and the first quarter of thisyear were affected by the postponementfrom the former to the latter period ofnew issues of Canadian securities inU.S. markets. If the data on capitalflows are adjusted by shifting about$110 million—representing these post-poned transactions less offsetting re-purchases of Canadian securities by theCanadian Government-—back to thefourth quarter of last year, those forthe first quarter would indicate anannual rate of outflow of only $2.4billion. Thus, the decline in net capitaloutflows that took place during 1965would appear to have continued throughthe first 3 months of this year.

The low rate of outflows was duemainly to a decline from last year inforeign investments by U.S. corpora-tions and to continued liquidations offoreign assets reported by U.S. banks.

However, the favorable effects thatthe decline in capital outflows had onthe balance of payments were partlyoffset by a further increase in interest

payments to foreigners resulting fromthe rise in domestic interest rates,particularly on money market assets.

The tight money market in the UnitedStates may also have affected the dis-tribution of liquid dollar liabilities onthe books of U.S. banks between thoseattributed to foreign official organiza-tions and those attributed to foreigncommercial banks and other foreignprivate accounts. Part of the increasein foreign private accounts may repre-sent dollar funds that otherwise wouldhave been sold to foreign official organi-zations. Another part may representan increase in dollar funds depositedby foreign official organizations inforeign commercial banks (including for-eign branches of U.S. banks), whichwould then become iJie holders of thesedeposits in U.S. bants. However, thereare also many other factors that affectthe distribution of foreign holdings ofliquid dollar assets, such as official inter-ventions in the forward exchange mar-kets, frequently involving very largeamounts, and changes in confidence inthe ability of foreign countries to main-tain the exchange value and the freeconvertibility of their currency. Ex-perience in recent periods has shownthat changes in liquid dollar holdingsby foreign commercial banks and other

private residents can vary sharply fromquarter to quarter.

The rise of interest rates in the UnitedStates was followed by a rise in discountrates by the central banks of several ofthe major foreign countries during thesecond quarter. This would tend, toreverse the direction of the first quarterchanges in the distribution of foreignliquid dollar assets between official andprivate accounts,

Effects of foreign business develop-ments

Changes in foreign business activityaffect primarily U.S. merchandise ex-ports and income from direct invest-ments abroad; they probably affect U.S.imports and capital outflows also, butto a lesser extent.

As compared with the earlier yearsof the 1960's, the rise in businessactivity during most of 1965 in theindustrially advanced foreign countriesother than Canada was relatively slow,but it accelerated in some of thesecountries in the latter part of the yearand in the first quarter of this year.

Merchandise exports generally re-flected these changes. During the firstquarter, they were at a seasonallyadjusted annual rate of $28.5 billion,more than $2 billion above the annual

total of $26.3 billion in 1965. Thiswas a considerable acceleration overthe $1 billion rise from 1964 to 1965.First quarter exports were approxi-mately at the rate that could be ex-pected on the basis of the relationshipsbetween exports and foreign businessactivity in prior years. Through thatperiod, at least, neither limitations ofproductive capacity nor rising pricesin the United States apparently had ameasurable adverse effect on exports.

Investment income rose relativelyslowly last year, particularly in view ofthe increase in the size of foreign in-vestments and if allowance is made forspecial dividend distributions duringthe first half of the year. Incomesfrom investments by the petroleumindustry were adversely affected bylower petroleum prices and highertaxes in the oil-producing countries.During the first quarter, however, theupward movement in investment in-comes seems to have been resumed.

Effect of rise in military expenditures

The $66 million rise in militaryexpenditures was another major factorinfluencing the balance of payments.The total during the first quarter,according to reports that are stillpreliminary, was about $835 million,or $3.35 billion at an annual rate.This was about $0.5 billion higher thanthe average rate in 1964, before therecent rise began.

The increase in total expendituressince 1964 was slightly less than the$0.6 billion rise in expenditures in thearea comprising all of Asia and Africa(shown in table 8) as well as in Japan,and may be attributed to the hostilitiesin Vietnam. The figure above coversonly direct expenditures by the militaryorganizations and their personnel. Itdoes not cover the indirect effects on theforeign transactions of the UnitedStates, particularly imports that areattributable to the increase in domesticdemand associated with the increase inmilitary orders and expenditures. Itmay be noted, however, that the with-drawal of strategic materials from theU.S. stockpile helped to dampen therise in imports, through its effect not

only on the volume of imports but alsoon their prices.

Major erratic changes

The first quarter balance was alsoinfluenced by changes in certain typesof transactions that are either tempo-rary, self-reversing, or subject to major

erratic changes. The postponement of$150 million of new issues of Canadiansecurities from the fourth quarter of1965 to the first quarter of this yearwas mentioned earlier. In part, theoutflow of funds resulting from thepurchases of these securities was re-duced through repurchases by theCanadian Government of $40 millionof its own obligations that had beensold to U.S. insurance companies in1962 at the time of the Canadianexchange difficulties. These securitiestransactions increased U.S. net pay-ments in the first quarter by $110million. Net payments were alsoraised by the liquidations by foreignofficial organizations of $53 million ofnonconvertible, nonmarketable, me-dium-term Government securities.

On the positive side of the ledgerwere net receipts of about $100 millionfrom long-term investments by foreignofficial and international agencies. Ad-vance receipts on military contracts,including those from purchases by aforeign central bank of special U.S.Treasury bonds that will be paid offthrough the transfer of funds to themanufacturers of the military equip-ment, are estimated to have been$70 million, but this was about $80million less than in the fourth quarterof last year.

The total of such transactions—ini-tiated largely by the U.S. Governmentor by foreign official agencies—wasless favorable to the U.S. balance ofpayments than were similar transac-tions in the preceding quarter, and it isthis difference that accounts to a largeextent for the deterioration of the(liquidity) balance in the first quarter.The balance on transactions (particu-larly in goods and services and capitalflows) that are affected mainly by do-mestic and foreign business activity,by the various programs to improve thebalance of payments, and by the or-dinary operations under the foreign aidprograms had improved sufficiently tooffset the rise in military expendituresabroad. However, this was accom-plished by a continued decline in netcapital outflows to a rate that may notbe maintained, much less reducedsignificantly.

June 1966 SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS 21

Merchandise TradeIn the first quarter of 1966, U.S.

exports and imports, adjusted to abalance of payments basis, were atrecord levels. Imports, however, ad-vanced more strongly than exports andthe export surplus dropped to a season-ally adjusted annual rate of $4.5 billion.This was below the export balances of$4.8 billion in 1965 and $6.7 billion in1964.

Exports

Exports rose by about 1 percent fromthe fourth quarter of 1965 to a season-ally adjusted annual rate of $28.5 billionin the first quarter. The first quarterrate was about 8 percent above the 1965total. This gain was well above the 4percent rise from 1964 to 1965 and ex-ceeded the . 7 percent annual averagegrowth rate of the preceding 10 years.

The increase from the fourth quarterwas concentrated in exports of nonagri-cultural goods to areas other thanCanada. Shipments to Canada, whichhad comprised a large part of the gainin exports in 1965, leveled off in thefirst quarter. Agricultural exports,which had risen in the second half oflast year, remained unchanged; thoseunder aid programs increased somewhatwhile commercial exports fell off.

Agricultural exports in the firstquarter, after adjustment for seasonalvariations, were at an annual rate of$6.7 billion, about the same amount asin the two preceding quarters. Duringthe remainder of this year, exports ofwheat, other grains, and soybeans areexpected to continue to expand. Ex-ports of cotton, which declined in thefirst quarter, should recover after thestart of the new marketing year onAugust 1, when the export price of U.S.cotton will be free to adjust to the worldmarket prices, thus making U.S. cottonmore competitive in international trade.

Exports of most major nonagricul-tural commodities in the first quarter of1966 were considerably above the 1965quarterly average. Increases in ma-chinery exports, after seasonal allow-ance, probably accounted for a largepart of the nonagricultural export risefrom the fourth quarter. New exportorders for machinery rose substantiallyduring 1965 and have remained at the

high fourth quarter level during thefirst 4 months of 1966. Since exportsgenerally lag about 6 months behind thereceipt of orders, a further expansion ofmachinery exports above the firstquarter rate may be» expected.

The first quarter rise in total exportswas held down by the failure offseason-ally adjusted) shipments of automobilesand parts to increase. These had risensharply in the last quarter of 1965,reflecting the implementation of theU.S.-Canadian trads agreement for theautomotive industry. Although virtu-ally unchanged in the first quarter ofthis year, automotive exports remainedwell above the 1965 quarterly average.

Agricultural exports are expected toincrease during the year, and thereshould be an early resumption in theupward trend in shipments to Canada,in view of the continued expansion ofthe Canadian economy. Improve-ments in industrial production in Japanshould also help to stimulate foreigndemand for U.S. goods. Business con-ditions in Western Europe, however,remain mixed, and thus may not makea major contribution to an expansionof U.S. exports in the near future.

Imports

With domestic business activity ex-panding rapidly and capacity utiliza-tion pressing against optimum operatingrates, U.S. imports continued to growrapidly in the early months of this year.Last year, imports rose by 15 percent,as compared with an average rise ofabout 6 percent in the preceding 10years. It is true that 1965 imports

were increased by an extraordinary risein the demand for steel in anticipationof a strike in the U.S. steel industry,but this addition was partly offsetby exceptionally low imports of food-stuffs.

From 1964 to 1965, imports otherthan foodstuffs increased about 18percent, as compared with a rise inGNP of 7.6 percent. The ratio ofthese two percentage figures—whichapproximately measures the incomeelasticity of nonfood imports for thatperiod—was 2.3, or more than doublethe 1.1 ratio for the 1960 to 1964period (table A). (The omission ofthe extraordinary imports of steel andof automobile imports from Canada,which increased sharply because of theU.S.-Canadian automotive trade agree-ment, would lower the 1964-65 ratioonly slightly.) The ratio based onchanges from the average of 1965 tothe first quarter of 1966 was 2.2.The slight drop from the ratio for the1964-65 period seems to have been duemainly to a slower rise in imports ofindustrial materials relative to GNP—-even after adjustment for last year'sextraordinary steel imports.

First quarter imports of industrialsupplies were affected by larger draw-ings on the Government stockpile anda steep rise in foreign relative todomestic prices for copper. The declinein imports of primary copper was partlyoffset by an increase in imports offabricated copper products. In viewof limited domestic supplies, a furtherexpansion in the domestic demand for

industrial materials could again accel-erate the rise in these imports relativeto the rise in GNP.

In contrast to imports of industrialsupplies and materials, the rate ofexpansion in imports of consumer goodsrose relative to the rate of expansionin GNP in the first quarter. If thesudden rise of imports of automobilesfrom Canada is omitted, the expansionfrom 1965 to the first quarter of 1966was over 19 percent, or nearly 3% timesthe rise in GNP. This represents aconsiderable acceleration in imports ofconsumer goods relative to GNP ascompared with the 1964-65 period,when imports grew nearly 2% times asfast as GNP, and is far in excess of theratio over the 1960-64 period, whenimports rose only \% times as fast asGNP.

The recent relative rise in consumergoods imports was not limited to anarrow range of commodities but wasrather widespread. Among the importsthat had the largest rates of growthwere such diverse commodities as motor-cycles, diamonds, watches, and tele-vision equipment. Automobile imports(other than those from Canada) alsoincreased sharply, even more thandomestic sales in 1965 and the firstquarter of 1966, but some slowdownoccurred in April.

The relatively large rise in demand forimports applied also to capital equip-ment. In the 1960 to 1964 period,the percentage increase in these im-ports was 2.8 times as large as thepercentage rise in GNP. From 1964 to1965, the ratio nearly doubled, butfrom the average of 1965 to the firstquarter of 1966, it fell slightly.

The expansion in imports of food-stuffs from 1965 to the first quarterof 1966 was twice as large as the risein GNP, and a ratio of this size is notlikely to continue. On the other hand,the relative rise in imports of industrialmaterials may have been temporarilyreduced in the first quarter. All told,it appears that the rise in total importsearly this year was about consistentwith the change in domestic businessactivity.

Private Capital Movements andIncome on Investments

Direct investments

Capital outflows for direct invest-ment abroad in the first quarter of thisyear are now estimated at about $570million or a seasonally adjusted annualrate of $2.5 billion. This was signifi-cantly below the extremely high out-flows—$3.8 billion at an annual rate—for the period from September 1964through mid-1965. The peak ratesof that period reflected in part abunching of several very large transac-tions affecting Canada, WesternEurope, and the Middle East oil-producing countries (chart 12). Inaddition, some funds were probablymoved abroad in anticipation of changesin Government programs to restraincapital outflows.

Since the middle of 1965, the outflowhas held fairly steady though therate of investment exceeded that ofany year prior to 1965. In the firstquarter of this year, the outflow wasnot significantly affected by large singletransactions, but some transactions ofthis type are expected later this year.

The capital outflow for directinvestment since mid-1965 was alsomoderated by adherence to the Presi-dent's program to improve the balanceof payments. While capital outlaysabroad are scheduled to rise sharplythis year,1 many firms are arranging tofinance these expenditures by borrowingabroad. A recapitulation of announcedlong-term borrowing abroad shows thefollowing totals (in millions of dollars):

offered debt instruments of variouskinds. Also, it is somewhat largerthan the amounts actually received bythe borrowers since discounts andcommissions have not been deducted.Out of the $397 million borrowedthrough U.S.-incorporated affiliates upto the end of March, it is believedthat approximately $100 million hadbeen transferred to foreign subsidiariesby that date. This includes somewhatless than $40 million transferred duringthe first quarter. The difference be-tween the amounts realized from bor-rowing and the amounts transferredwas retained by the U.S. corporationsin liquid assets abroad and is recordedas a short-term capital outflow (table 1,line 40). The disposition of the fundsborrowed through foreign-incorporatedaffiliates is not currently known.

The net result of foreign borrowinghas been to reduce the need for U.S.funds considerably. In the remainderof the year, as the accumulated liquidforeign assets of the U.S.-incorporatedaffiliates are transferred to foreignaffiliates to finance their investments,the capital outflow for direct invest-ment will be increased, but this will beoffset by a corresponding reduction inshort-term investments, so that therewill be no net effect on the balance.

Notable features of first quarterdirect investments were the relativelylow figure for Western Europe, $230million, and the sustained large outflowto Canada, $210 million. The annualflow to Europe in 1964 and 1965 was$1.4 billion, and in view of the enlargedinvestments projected for that areaby major firms in 1966, a somewhathigher pace of outflows may be ex-pected for the rest of the year. In thecase of Canada, a considerable numberof major projects that will probablykeep the outflow relatively high are inprogress. However, the outflow of$0.9 billion to Canada in 1965 includedabout $0.2 billion to refinance out-standing debt of foreign enterprises tothe United States; such transactionsare unlikely to recur in 1966. Asizable part of the financing of Cana-dian affiliates is obtained by sales oftheir bonds in U.S. capital markets.

June 1966 SURVEY OF CUB RENT BUSINESS 23

In 1965, such sales amounted to $219million; they totaled about $70 millionin the first quarter of 1966, and a similaramount may be sold in the secondquarter.

In contrast to the large capitaloutflow to Middle East oil-producingcountries in early 1965, the flow in thefirst quarter of 1966 was relativelysmall. These capital movements arequite irregular, and heavy tax or otherpayments may result in larger outflowslater in the year.

Other private investments

Purchases of new foreign securitiesoffered in the United States were un-usually high—$460 million—in the firstquarter of 1966. Even if $150 millionof delayed Canadian issues is deducted,the annual rate of outflow would be$1.2 billion. This is as high as theaverage of the 1963-65 period. Cana-dian issues accounted for $413 millionof the first quarter total, and largeamounts of Canadian issues have al-ready been sold or are scheduled forsale in the second quarter. It appearsthat Canadian issues in the U.S. marketin 1966 will considerably exceed the$700 million annual average of 1963-65.In contrast, sales by other countrieswill be well under their 1963-65 averageof $470 million. This decline reflectsthe application of the Interest Equaliza-tion Tax, from which Canadian issuesare exempt, to new issues of otherdeveloped countries.

Redemptions of outstanding issuesby foreigners were unusually large inthe first quarter because of the advancerepurchase by the Canadian Govern-ment of $40 million of its bonds heldin the United States. This offset partof the heavy new flow of funds toCanada. Americans continued to re-duce their holdings of foreign equitysecurities.

Other private capital transactionsincluded a net accumulation of $160million of short-term assets in Europeby nonbanking concerns. This repre-sents largely the proceeds of $185million borrowed abroad by U.S.-in-corporated firms, less the use of fundsborrowed in the same period or in1965. Apparently there was very little

further repatriation of outstandingshort-term funds held abroad, in con-trast to the net recorded inflow ofnearly $250 million in the first quarterof 1965.

U.S. banks further reduced both theirlong- and their short-term assets in thefirst quarter. The reduction in short-term assets by $137 million, afterseasonal adjustment, largely reflectedrepayments by Colombia and Vene-zuela. Reductions in longer term loansresulted primarily from repayments byEuropean countries, especially Italy,and by Brazil and Venezuela. Theonly sizable outflow of longer termbanking funds was to' Australia. Atthe end of March, the banks' foreignassets were about $700 million belowthe limit suggested under guidelinesestablished by the Federal ReserveSystem.

Foreign investments in theUnited States

Foreign transactions in U.S. securi-ties in the first quarter of 1966 weremarked by a continuing net liquidationof U.S equity securities, amounting to$50 million for the quarter, offset bypurchases of U.S. bonds (other thanbonds of the U.S. Government) of $191million. The foreign purchases of U.S.bonds include nearly $185 million ofthe issues of companies especially or-ganized to finance direct foreign invest-ments. In addition, $73 million werepurchased by international organiza-tions. Other trading in U.S. bondsresulted in a net liquidation of about$65 million. This liquidation and asimilar but smaller net liquidation inthe fourth quarterof 1965 contrast witha small net purchase balance (asidefrom transactions related to the liqui-dation of British Government holdingsof U.S. securities) registered during1964 and the first three quarters of1965. Such a shift could be relatedto market conditions abroad, whereyields were driven up by intense de-mands for funds. One important ele-ment in the market was the sale toforeigners of the bonds of the newlyorganized affiliates of U.S. companies;to the extent the purchase of thesebonds was financed by the liquidation

of other U.S. securities, the gain tothe U.S. balance of payments wasdiminished.

Other foreign investments in theUnited States were relatively minor inthe first quarter. Long-term depositswith U.S. banks were raised by $50million and foreigners increased theirshort-term claims on U.S. commercialconcerns by about the same amount.There were inflows on a similar scale inboth of these types of assets during 1965but the timing was highly irregular.

Income on investments

Income received from direct foreigninvestments was at an annual rate ofabout $4.0 billion in the first quarter,about the same as the total for 1965.Dividend distributions, however, wereunusually large in the early part of 1965because of changes in taxation and otherspecial reasons. These special distribu-tions amounted to about $125 million.There were no such unusual distribu-tions this year. Without these specialdistributions, income received in 1965would have been about $3.8 billion, andthe first quarter 1966 rate would indi-cate a continued rise.

Data by industry are not yet avail-able, but in 1965 some weakening inpetroleum income appeared offset byhigher income from other industries.In the first quarter of 1966, incomecontinued to be relatively low in theareas where petroleum production isimportant and to rise gradually in otherareas. Income could ordinarily beexpected to rise as the investment basegrows, unless much larger amounts areretained abroad for reinvestment. How-ever, the petroleum industry is beingadversely affected by higher taxes andintensified competition, and manufac-turing and other enterprises may alsobe experiencing reduced profit rates.

Income on private investments otherthan direct made further gains in thefirst quarter. This reflected partly thegrowing holdings of foreign bonds, butto an even greater extent, it reflectedrising interest rates. Income paymentsby the United States are also rising,primarily because of the higher interestrates on time deposits and U.S. Govern-ment obligations.

p Preliminary. n.a. Not available.1 Exports and imports in the fourth quarter of 1964 and the first two quarters of 1965 were

distorted by the longshoremen's strike in the first quarter of 1965.2.Consists mainly of exports of military equipment under Defense Department sales con-

tracts with foreign governments to the extent that such exports are included in the Censusdata. Also includes exports of domestically owned goods into storage abroad (e.g., U.S.grain stored in Canada); exports to the Panama Canal Zone; and exports of exposed motionpicture film for rental rather than sale.

3 Includes exports of domestically owned goods out of storage abroad (e.g., U.S. grainsold from storage in Canada); exports of electrical energy; exports of nonmonetary gold andsilver, and net sales of gold by U.S. private residents to the U.S. monetary gold stock;personal remittances in kind (gift parcels sent through the mail); and transfers, financedunder nonmilitary aid programs, of goods to recipient countries from Defense Departmentstocks located abroad.

4 Includes valuation adjustments for goods considered to be underpriced or overpricedin Census data; timing adjustments for goods recorded in the Census data in one period butknown to have been shipped in another period; and coverage adjustments for special situationsin which shipments are omitted from the Census data.

5 Consists mainly of Defense Department and other imports which duplicate in wholeor in part purchases (e.g., of nuclear materials) included in table 1, line 16 (Military expendi-tures) . Also includes imports of domestically owned goods returned from storage abroad(e.g., grain from storage in Canada); imports from the Panama Canal Zone; and foreigncharges for repair of U.S. vessels. ' ,6 Includes imports of electrical energy; and imports of nonmonetary gold and silver, andnet purchases of gold by the U.S. private residents from the U.S. monetary gold stock.

7 Imports in the third and fourth quarters of 1965 were distorted by the U.S. seamen sstrike and by changes in Customs Bureau procedures for verifying and handling importdocuments. An adjustment for these factors is included in lines 11 and 14 of the table, butcould not be carried into the commodity detail.8 The entries in this line reflect only an approximate measure of merchandise exports notfinanced by Government grants and capital outflows since Government financing of exportsmay not coincide with actual shipments.

v Preliminary1. Total increase represents changes in reported gold reserves of foreign central banks and

governments (including international organizations but excluding the countries of the Sovietbloc) net of convertible currencies included in U.S. official reserve assets (table 1, line 48) plusforeign liquid claims on the United States (table 1, lines 58 and 59) plus net changes in foreignIMF positions through U.S. dollar transactions.

Changes through known transactions with the United States represents for each of the separateareas shown the sum (with sign reversed) of table 1, lines 23, 25, 32, 41, and 51-57. For "Allareas" line 60 is added, and for "All areas" and "International organizations and unallocated"line 23 is adjusted to exclude net sales or net purchases (—) of gold by U.S. private residentsto the U.S. monetary gold stock. These were (in millions of dollars): 1964: year, -89; I, -19;II, -22; III, -21; IV, -27; 1965: year, -118; I, -21; II, -31; III, -29; IV, -37; 1966:1, -34.

Changes through other transactions equals "Total increase" less "Changes through knowntransactions with the United States." For "All areas" this difference represents knownacquisitions (+) of sales (—) of gold by foreign central banks and governments outside theUnited States. These net acquisitions equal the excess of new gold production abroad plussales by the Soviet bloc less net gold purchases by others. For each of the separate areasshown the difference reflects net gold and dollar receipts (-}-) or payments (—) resulting fromtheir transactions with countries other than the United States, and from'unrecorded trans-actions with the United States.

2. Includes transactions with shipping companies operating under the flag of Honduras,Liberia, and Panama.

June 1966

Foreign Travel Payments(Continued from page 17)

2,386,000 in 1965, while the number ofpersons traveling by sea declined by 14percent to 237,000.

After a sharp drop in 1964, cruisetravel increased to 300,000 last year.Foreign-flag carriers continued to domi-nate the cruise trade, carrying almost270,000 U.S. residents, as comparedwith about 260,000 in 1964. U.S.-flagships carried about 32,000 cruise trav-elers, nearly 10 percent of the total butabout 12 percent fewer than in 1964.

Foreign visitors spend more here

Visitors from foreign countries spent$1.4 billion for travel in the UnitedStates in 1965. This total includes$165 million paid by foreign visitors toU.S. sea and air carriers for transporta-tion to and from the United States.Travelers from Canada and Mexico ac-counted for about 60 percent of the $1.2billion spent in the United States byforeign visitors.

Canadian visitors spent a record $490million here last year, surpassing their1960 expenditures for the first time.Expenditures by Mexican visitors, atabout $265 million, were 6 percenthigher than in 1964. Mexicans visitingonly the U.S.-Mexico border area

SURVEY OF CUEEENT BUSINESS

increased their outlays slightly, whilethose visiting points in the interior ofthe United States spent about $85 mil-lion, almost 20 percent above the pre-vious year. Border receipts made up68 percent of total receipts from Mexi-can visitors last year, as compared with72 percent in 1964. Eelaxation ofU.S. immigration regulations in the latesummer of last year may have contrib-uted to the greater tendency to travelbeyond the immediate border region.

Record number of oversea visitorsarrives here

In contrast to 1964, expenditures ofvisitors from overseas increased rela-tively more than their number. A 10-percent increase in the number of over-sea visitors to 1,204,000 resulted in U.S.receipts of almost $460 million, 15 per-cent more than in 1964. In 1964, a30-percent increase in oversea visitorsbrought a 20-percent increase in theiroutlays here. One reason that outlaysrose relatively more than the numberof visitors last year is that the sharpestrise in numbers occurred among businesstravelers (table 8). Business travelers,especially those from Europe and theMediterranean area, tend to spend moreper trip (and per day) in this countrythan pleasure travelers. Business trav-

43

elers from Europe numbered 112,000,one-fifth more than in the year before,and business travelers from LatinAmerica were more numerous by 19percent.

Of 584,000 visitors from Europe andthe Mediterranean, about 68 percentcame on pleasure trips; the proportionof pleasure travelers was slightly smallerthan in 1964. Total expenditures hereby Europeans amounted to about $185million, an increase of 16 percent.British visitors spent $62 million herelast year, one-third of the area total.

Visitors from South and CentralAmerica and the West Indies, thoughfewer in number than European visi-tors, spent an equal amount, $185 mil-lion, for their travel expenses in theUnited States. This was 18 percentmore than the $151 million spent in1964. Visitors from the DominicanEepublic were less numerous last year,about 13 percent below the 53,000 in1964. Their visits are often restrictedto neighboring Puerto Eico and theirexpenditures are relatively small.

About 170,000 visitors came fromother oversea areas and spent nearly$90 million. Those from Japan spent$26 million here last year, as comparedwith $25 million in 1964.

f Revised, p Preliminary.fBeginning in the Jan. 1966 issue of the SURVEY, data for employment, hours, earnings, and

labor turnover reflect adjustment to Mar. 1964 benchmarks and the introduction of the 1963amendments to the 1957 SIC system; they are not strictly comparable with previously pub-

lished figures. Comparable earlier data appear in BLS Bulletin 1312-3, Employment andEarnings Statistics for the United States, 1909-65 (Dec. 1965), $4.25, GPO, Washington,D.C. 20402.

'Revised. * Preliminary. 1 See note "O" for p. S-21. 2 Less than 500 tons.3 Revised total; monthly revisions are not available.^Beginning Jan. 1964, the composite reflects substantial changes in products and weights

used and is not comparable with earlier periods. The new composite price is based on AISI

net shipments of carbon steel and is the average price of all finished carbon steel products(except rails and wire products) weighted by tonnage. Prices used are base prices at Pitts-burgh; the average includes an additional 25% for "extra" charges but does not include freight.
