1943 Supplement toSelected List o f the Publications of the Bureau of

Labor Statistics, 1940 Edition

This list supplements the 1940 edition (Bulletin No. 683) of the Selected List of the Publications of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. It contains references not only to the publications of the Bureau but also to articles of special interest in the Labor Inform ation Bulletin. The Labor Inform ation Bulletin was issued by the Bureau of Labor Statistics from its inception in September 1934 to June 1942; since June 1942 it has been issued by the Office of the Secretary of Labor.

The 1940 edition of the Selected List o f the Publications of the Bureau of Labor Statistics included references to the more significant reports of the Bureau recent enough to be of value, as well as to those which seemed to be of current general interest at the time o f preparation of the list. The present supplement includes all bulletins and the more important articles in the M onthly Labor Review published from October 1940 to July 1943, with the exception that in the case of reports in a continuing series on the same subject only the most recent study is noted. References to the Labor Inform ation Bulletin cover the numbers from October 1940 to June 1943.

Because of the increased interest in labor and economic developments in foreign countries, the more important articles on foreign conditions published in the M onthly Labor Review and the Labor Inform ation Bulletin during the period covered by this list have been brought together in part I I , by country. A ll references in part I apply to the United States.

A s in the previous list o f publications, articles in the Monthly L abor Review are indicated by the letters M . L . R . Many of the articles in the Review have been reprinted to make the material available in more convenient form, and where this has been done the number of the bulletin or pamphlet containing the reprinted article is shown in the reference.

Files and Indexes of Publications

For a complete picture of material on a particular subject published in the M onthly Labor Review or the Labor Inform ation Bulletin, reference should be made to the various issues of those publications or to the subject indexes to their contents. A detailed index to the articles in the Review is published for each volume (6 numbers). A cumulative index for the period from July 1915 to December 1920 (volumes 1 to 11) was published as Bulletin No. 695 (20 cents), and a similar index for the issues from January 1921 to December 1940 (volumes 12 to 51)

A complete list o f all printed bulletins and special reports of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, as well as o f the other bureaus and divisions of the Department o f Labor, is given in a pamphlet issued by the Department.

The M onthly Labor Review, Labor Inform ation Bulletin, and other publications of the Bureau are available for reference in many local libraries which have been designated as depositories for publications of the Federal Government. A list o f these libraries is given at the end o f this bulletin.

Distribution of Publications

A s a wartime economy, it has been necessary for the Bureau to lim it free distribution of its publications to those who require them for official governmental use, or for some essential civilian activity related to the war effort. Persons requesting publications for either o f these purposes should state their specific need for them.

Regular distribution of the Monthly. Labor Review is on a subscription basis, the subscriptions being handled by the Superintendent of Documents. The price is $3.50 per year in the United States, Canada, and Mexico, and in other countries, $4.75; single copies are 30 cents. Prices of the printed bulletins, on sale by the Superintendent of Documents, vary from 5 cents upward.

Orders and remittances for the purchase of publications should be sent direct to the Superintendent of Documents, U . S. Government Printing Office, W ashington, D . C. Payment must be made in advance, either by the coupons sold by the Superintendent in sets of 20 for $1 and good until used, or by check or money order payable to him. Currency may be sent at senders risk. Postage stamps are not acceptable.

Announcements of the issuance o f all printed reports o f the Bureau, or o f reports on particular subjects only, w ill be sent to persons who ask that their names be placed on the appropriate m ailing lists to receive them. The reports are grouped under the follow ing m ajor classifications: Building construction; Consumers cooperative organizations; Cost o f living and retail prices; Employer-employee relations (including strike statistics); Em ploym ent; Fam ily expenditures; Industrial accidents; Latin American labor conditions; Occupational outlook; Productivity of labor; W ages and hours o f labor; W holesale prices.

A s the demand for the Bureaus publications frequently exceeds the supply, persons who have publications of the Bureau for which they have no further use are requested to notify the Bureau so that franked m ailing labels (requiring no postage) may be forwarded for the return of the publications. One frank is required for each package weighing 4 pounds or less.

Handbook of labor statistics, 1941 edition: Volume I, All topics except wages; Volume II, Wages and wage regulation. Bull. 694. Vol. I, $1; Vol. II, 45 cents.

This is the fifth Handbook of Labor Statistics to be published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The first, issued in 1927 as Bulletin 439, brought together in summary form such of the earlier published material of the Bureau as seemed to be of permanent value. The 1929, 1931, 1936, and 1941 editions (Bulls. 491, 541, 616, 694) present similar summarizations for the intervening intervals. The material contained in these volumes represents in large part the original work of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, but this is not entirely the case, as the Bureau avoids making original studies in fields of labor interest which are already adequately covered by other official agencies. Digests of some of the published reports of these other agencies, therefore, as well as of certain responsible private bodies, were included to give a well-rounded picture of labor and related conditions.
