The decline in employment has been less than that in the volume of produc- tion, the Federal Reserve Board said to- day in its monthly bulletin, revealing that industrial production declined last month for the fifth consecutive mon and was below the level set last year. Although wholesale commodity prices mnvefl downard in November and con- tinued down the first half of the pres- ent month, retail department store sales continued at a larger volume than a year ago. Production in basic industries decllned by 9 per cent in November and ‘was 5 per cent lower than a year ago. “The decline in production, whl:h be- gan in Midsummer,” the bulletin con- tinued, “was restricted prior to Novem- ber largely to industries in which the expansion during the earlier part of the year had been exceedingly rapid, par- utomobiles and related industries. The same industries showed the largest reductions in No- vember, but there were declines also in the copper, cotton and wool textiles and shoe industries, and, in smaller degree, ln mk textiles and coal. Production of troleum was also curtailed. Vol- \uns o bullding contracts awarded dur- the momh continued to be con- bly smaller than in the corre- sponfllu peflou of 1928, Employment Decline Shown. “Employment in factories was also reduced during November to a level slightly below a year ago and there was a somewhat larger decrease in factory pay rolls. The decline in employment since Midsummer, however, has been relatively smaller than that in the physical volume of production.” ‘The board reported that liquidation of bank credit, which had begun in No- vember, continued throughout mlt month and the it two weeks o cember, when total loans and lnvub- ments of reporting member banks were at about the same level as on October 23, prior to the increase caused by the withdrawal of funds by non-banking lenders. The board found that the number of banks operating branches decreased by 17 in the fiscal year ending last June 30, but the number of branches in oper- ation increased 210 to a total of 3,440.
