FOREWORD
1. Objectives and Scope.
The Economic Intelligence Statistical
Handbook, 1957 (hereafter referred to as the
1957 Handbook), is a concise reference work
in tabular and graphic form designed to
supply data, primarily on production and
inventories, which are pertinent to the
analysis and comparison of the economic
characteristics of the Sino-Soviet Bloc coun-
tries and the countries comprising the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).
Countries of the Sino-Soviet Bloc included
in the 1957 Handbook are the USSR, Com-
munist China, North Korea, North Vietnam,
and the European Satellites (Albania, Bul-
garia, Czechoslovakia, East Germany, Hun-
gary, Poland, and Rumania). The total
production of these countries is compared
with that of NATO, whose member countries
are Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France,
Greece, Iceland, Italy, Luxembourg, the
Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Turkey, the
UK, the US, and West Germany. The Saar
has been added as a separate political entity
because its industrial production is often
listed separately in the sources used.
The 1957 Handbook covers primarily the
years 1938, 1950, and 1954-56. The previ-
ous handbook, which was published in Feb-
ruary 1957, covered the years 1938 and
1946-55 and included 1956 estimates for the
Sino-Soviet Bloc. The 1957 Handbook is a
revision of the preliminary data published
earlier and contains data which are believed
to be more firm. A more complete series-
1938, 1946, 1948, and 1950-56-has been in-
cluded in this edition for the commodities
considered most important as a measure of
economic development. Graphic presenta-
tion of the data for these commodities has
also been included. Data for individual
NATO countries, except for the US, have
been included only for the years 1954-55 or
1955-56. When available, data for other
major producers of the Free World have also
been included for the same years. The US
data are given for each year and are always
included in the NATO total.
2. Sources and Reliability.
Unless otherwise indicated by a source
note, data for the Sino-Soviet Bloc countries
are ORR estimates contained in the ORR
Central Estimates File as of 1 July 1957. To
provide a central source for up-to-date ref-
erence data, ORR analysts contribute to this
file all economic estimates as they are made
and revise them regularly. Some of these
estimates are provisional. The wealth of
statistical data contained in economic hand-
books issued by various Sino-Soviet Bloc
countries during the past year has increased
the general reliability of data contained in
this publication compared with previous
issues.
Data for the NATO countries were se-
lected from the most reliable and most cur-
rent sources available. In general, these
sources are unclassified publications of the
UN and of the Organization for European
Economic Cooperation (OEEC) and official
statistical publications of the various coun-
tries. Reasonable care was exercised in se-
lecting the sources, but CIA does not assume
responsibility for their accuracy. A list of
the major sources used is included in this
volume.
Blanks which appear in the data for any
country listed indicate that information was
not available as to either the amount or the
existence of production. The omission of
country names from the table likewise indi-
cates that information was not available as
to the amount or the existence of produc-
tion. However, where it is known that there
was no production in a Sino-Soviet Bloc
country, this fact is stated in a footnote.
Such a statement in regard to the NATO

 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/01/06: CIA-RDP07-00617R000100040001-7
countries was not possible, because the
sources did not usually distinguish between
"No Production" and "Not Available."
3. Boundaries.
Because the Sino-Soviet Bloc is relatively
new and because significant boundary
changes have occurred during the past 25
years, comparability of data becomes an im-
portant problem in analyzing some series.
Unless otherwise indicated, boundaries of
the countries in this research aid are those
presently in force, and the data for earlier
years have been adjusted accordingly.
4. Time Series.
No attempt has been made in compiling
the 1957 Handbook to adjust time series to
take account of such problems as homo-
geneity of the product and consistency of
reporting systems. Those inconsistencies
which are known to be unadjusted have
been indicated in footnotes to the individual
tables.
5. Rounding.
With the exception of a few tables, the
data in this report have been rounded to
three significant digits. The term "Neg-
ligible" has been used to indicate that some
production is known to exist but that the
amount is too small to be significant.
6. Totals.
Totals for NATO and Sino-Soviet Bloc
countries are simple additions of unrounded
data. Hence they may not always agree
with the sum of the rounded figures which
appear under the individual country head-
ings. No adjustment has been made to
compensate for gaps in country data.
Totals were omitted, however, when they
were obviously far from the true total of
production. Estimated world totals have
been included only when the estimates were
available in the source publications and
when they did not conflict with the summa-
tion of the other data appearing in the table.

b The estimates shown for the European Satellites are only rough indicators of the relative size and rates of
growth of the gross national products (GNP) of these countries. The annual rates of growth which may be calcu-
lated from these values are considered less reliable than the changes indicated for longer periods. Because of the
limitations of the data from which these estimates are derived and because of possible differences in concept and
methodology, these GNP values are not necessarily closely comparable with estimates for other countries.

plus subsidies minus indirect taxes.

the ruble-dollar ratio for GNP was derived at market
prices, not at factor cost. For US dollar valuation of
GNP at market prices, see Table 1.

Official index for North Korea is on the basis of 1948 = 100.
b Preliminary.
Officially announced index with minor adjustments.
d The indexes shown for the European Satellites are only rough indicators of the growth of industrial production
in these countries, particularly in the case of annual changes. Despite their limitations, these indexes are believed
to give a more accurate impression of the growth in net industrial production than do the official data concerning
gross industrial production.
This index is not entirely comparable with the estimates of GNP that are given for Hungary in Table 1. The
GNP values for the period 1950-56 are based in part on the official index of national income, which is considered
the best available indicator of the trend in GNP. However, official data on net industrial production (which would
be used in calculating the official index of national income) are not published by the Hungarian government. Con-
sidering the trend shown in the official index of national income, the figure for 1951 in the present rough index of
industrial production appears to be too small and the figures for 1954-56 appear to be too large.

An appropriate ruble-dollar ratio is not available to express the budget in terms of US dollars. It would be
misleading to convert the rubles to dollars at the official exchange rate of 4 rubles to 1 US dollar. An idea of the
importance of the budget in the national economy is seen by the fact that the 1955 expenditure of 539.5 billion
rubles is about 42 percent of the GNP at market prices.
b All figures in parentheses are estimates.
c In 1954-55 the Soviet budget included revenue and expenditure entries for retail price reductions (representing
revenue foregone) and tax rebates to procurement organizations for paying higher agricultural procurement prices.
After 1954, there were no more entries for retail price reductions, and tax rebates to procurement organizations were
gradually abolished between 1954 and 1956. In 1955 the expenditure entry for rebates was transferred into Procure-
ment, under Financing the national economy.
d Actual expenditures for reserve funds are shown as zero because any reserve funds spent are listed under the
category for which they are spent.

? Because of the difficulty of determining a valid
exchange rate, yuan have not been converted into
dollars. The rate of 2.46 yuan to 1 US dollar usually
quoted is based on the yuan-sterling rate for telegraphic
transfers. This should be used with caution, as it is
not applicable to the budget data. The budgets of
1956 and 1957 reflect the price cuts of 1956 and, if
expressed in the old prices, would be about 3 percent
higher.
b Carried over from previous year.
c The budget speech gives this figure as the surplus
funds accumulated since 1949. The Chinese Commu-
nists in calculating surplus funds exclude certain of the
expenditures for 1951 and 1952 and add certain items
to 1950 receipts. Because the 1955 budget speech
states that roughly half of the surplus had been pre-
viously allocated, only ?3,155 million is carried over
into the 1955 budget.
d Including a grant to the banking system of x?600
million and a general reserve of Y-594 million.

Annual average of workers 12 years of age and older.
b Including employed persons 14 years of age and older.
The decline in the annual average between 1952 and 1953 is artificially high because of the transfer of 1.3 million
collective farmers to employment on machine tractor stations late in 1953. The number of farm workers employed
at the end of 1952 ,was 46.1 million; at the end of 1953, 45.5 million.

? Including all NATO countries. The 1946 figure does not include Greece and West Germany. Data normally
refer to net production (that is, total production less electricity consumed by the producing plants themselves) by
both public utilities and auto-producers (private power stations producing power to supply a specific undertaking).
The exceptions are Germany and the Netherlands in 1946-55, for which the data show gross production, and Canada,
Denmark, and the UK, for which data cover only enterprises generating primarily for public use. Production
by stations with installed capacity below a certain minimum, which varies by country, is also excluded.
b All US public supply statistics are reported on a net basis. That is, the data represent power available at the
bus bar and thus exclude station use and losses. They do include, however, transmission and distribution losses.
When used to compare with Soviet Bloc data, about 5 percent should be added, because, as far as is known, Bloc
production data are on a gross basis.

b Million metric tons of standard fuel. The average calorific values used to convert to standard fuel of 7,000
kilocalories per kilogram are listed below. Calculations for standard fuel were not carried out for pre-1952 data,
because to do so, using these same values, would be misleading. In most countries, there has been a deterioration
in quality of coal since 1938 which has resulted in lower calorific values. As the trend has not been uniform, neither
over time nor by individual country, it would be very difficult to arrive at the appropriate calorific values to be used
for years prior to 1952.

Production in USSR and Communist China should be called "aluminous raw materials" rather than bauxite
because some nonbauxite ores have been included. For example, production in China in 1938 was from shale, not
bauxite. Nonbauxite sources of alumina are being developed in the Sino-Soviet Bloc and probably will become
important.

? Because physical units include cars of 2, 4, or more axles, the term does not represent an exact measure of carry-
ing capacity. It is used here, however, because this is the form in which NATO, USSR, and European Satellite
data currently are being published. Although the European NATO countries are still producing some smaller
cars, all US, USSR, and much of Satellite production now consists of 4-axle units.
b Including Canada (except 1956), France, Italy, Norway (except 1952-56), the UK, the US, and West Germany.
Data refer to all types of goods-carrying cars, except baggage and mail cars, unless otherwise noted.
? No production in North Korea, North Vietnam, or Albania.
d Data for all years include coaches, baggage cars, and freight cars.
? Including passenger cars after 1950.

d Excluding harbor tugs.
e Including vessels which may be on loan from or rented from the USSR.
f It is probable that a large part of Rumania's fleet, perhaps as much as 35 percent, was out of use or under repair
because of age in the postwar years up to 1955. From 1955 onward, indications are that new construction and repair
are bringing the number of vessels actually in operation closer to the estimated totals shown.
it Estimated from Yugoslav records of total fleet on all rivers.
h Known as the DDSG.
Including 16 rented vessels: 4 tugs, 2,530 HP; 12 barges, 11,778 tons.
1 Including only 1953 data plus vessels due to be returned in 1955-56 by USSR. No information is available on
new construction.
