Detailed Reports for Industrial and Business MONTHLY REPORTS on employment and pay rolls are presented below for more than 150 manufacturing industries and for 26 nonmanufacturing industries including class 1 steam railroads. Data for both manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries are based on reports of the number of employees and amount of pay rolls for the period ending nearest the 15th of the month. TABLE 1.—Estimated number of production workers in manufacturing industries 1 1 TABLE 1.—Estimated number of production workers in manufacturing industries 1 Industry group and industry -Con. Estimated number of production workers (in thousands) Jan. 1947 Dec. 1946 Nov. 1946 Jan. 1946 January 1947 estimates are based on reports from 32,100 cooperating establishments covering 7,165,000 production workers. Estimates for the major industry groups have been adjusted to levels indicated by final 1944 data made available by the Bureau of Employment Security of the Federal Security Agency. Estimates for individual industries have been adjusted to levels indicated by the 1939 Census of Manufactures but not to Federal Security Agency data. For this reason, together with the fact that this Bureau has not prepared estimates for certain industries, the sum of the individual industry estimates will not agree with the totals shown for the major industry groups. Revisions have been made as follows in the data for earlier months: Trunks and suitcases.-October 1946 to 15.0.
