From the Census
of Manufactures
The U. a Census of Manufac
tures supplies what is probably
the most authoritative index of
an industry's place in the national
economy.
Preliminary reports for 1947.
the first business census, ,sinco
1939, are now being released by
the Government. They show that
the brewing industry makes a
valuable contribution to the na
tion's welfare and economy. ,.
The Government report shows
that in 1947, the brewing indus
try paid out $292,000,000 In
both wages and salaries, spent
1609,000,000 for materials, sup
plies, containers, fuel and contract
work, and another $111,000,000
fat new plants and equipment
inaking a total of approximately
$912,000,000.
The brewing industry em
ployed 82,524 persons 63,668 of
them being engaged in production
and other related operations. This
latter group averaged $3,300 per
year per worker one of the high
est wage averages to be found in
any American industry.
For three centuries beer and
ale have contributed to modera
tion and temperance in America.
The Census report confirms that
economically, too, beer's legal
sale and manufacture is an Amer
ican asset worth preserving.
