National Income For 1937 Is Given Receipts Exceed Those of Previous Year But Are Below 1929 Record Based on terms of 1929 purchasing power, the national income of the United States in 1937, according to tentative estimates published recently by the Brookings Institution, was $70,000,000,000. Actual cash income, however, was less than this amounting to about $70,000,000,000 for prices were higher in 1929, so that it took more money in those days to buy the same quantity of goods. "With adjustments for changes in the price level," says the Brookings survey, "the estimated total for 1936 is $73,000,000,000, as compared with $81,000,000,000 in 1929." The authors balanced approximately a 10 per cent increase in the number of gainful workers to conclude real income per worker was down approximately 15 per cent. Farm income and a few other wage groups were higher than in 1929, which previously set the all time record for American prosperity. The cash 1937 farm income was less than 1929 but the "real income" which is adjusted for the lower 1937 cost of living gave the farmer greater purchasing power than the earlier year. The 1929 farm income was $9,000,000,000, including $425,000,000 of government payments. In some groups, notably manufacturing, workers were in a much better position than 1929. Manufacturing pay rolls in 1937 approximated $10,500,000,000 or about $1,230 per worker. Four-Year Tenures Advised in Arizona A decision to seek a constitutional convention, rather than to initiate a constitutional amendment, has been reached by a committee from the Young Democrats of Arizona, appointed to originate some plan for "increasing efficiency and lowering the cost of government." Attorney Arthur M. Davis, chairman of the committee, plans to ask the Young Democrats to sponsor recommendations as follows: State officers to be elected for four-year terms. Office of lieutenant governor to be established. That there be no elective officers except governor, lieutenant governor and auditor; and that they constitute a cabinet form of government. State employees, except policy-forming department heads to be under civil service. of whom were dependent on work relief and direct public support." There is no satisfactory information about profits in 1937; the report continues. "However, corporate earnings for the first three quarters of the year appear to have been about 70 per cent of 1929." Meeters for Parking Please Long Beach J. H. McClelland, chief of police of Long Beach, which is pioneering in the use of pay-parking meters for curbstone space, recently predicted that "we would now experience as much trouble in trying to remove them as we did in trying to place them." Since the instillation of the first batch of 400 in November of 1936, the gross income from the present 901 automatic collectors has been more than $50,000, which has been allocated to the city's general fund. City Manager R. M. Dorton pointed out that this contribution is about enough to pay for the running of one year of the offices of the city attorney and the city clerk. Chief McClelland reported that the present supply of meters for the several downtown streets is adequate, with no immediate plans for increasing their number. Success of the meters in contributing to solution of the parking problems of the community of 170,000 persons, fifth largest city in the state, is being studied by such nearby communities as Santa Monica and Pasadena as a guide for their own problems.
