NEW YORK, February 17.—That in- jdustrial activity in the United States “during January made a 4.6 per cent as com| with December, but 8.1 per cent below the mark estab- dished in January, 1929, is shown in the consumption of electrical energy by more than 3,600 manufacturing plants throughout the country, Electrical World Teports. General manufacturing reached the low point in the present cycle in December, but a marked upward swing became evident in the figures for Jan- uary operations. Manufacturing operations in the three principal industriat sections of the country all reported a higher rate of Activity in January as compared with December. New England’s gain was 32.6 per cent, the Middle Atlantic States, 44 per cent, and the North Central States, 17.4 per cent. Continued drops in manufacturing activity were reported for the Southern States, with 15.6 per £ent, and the Western States, with 8.7 cent. Every section of the coun- however, reported manufacturing activity last month was lower than in January, 1929. For the first time since last August the automobile industry, including the manufacture of parts and accessories, showed greater productive activity. The January rate of operations in this in- dustry was 25.7 per cent above that re- ported for December, but was still 33.2 per cent under January of last year. ix manufacturing groups reported the n‘:e:l January operations exceeded estern Maryland BY GEORGE T.
