New Construction Totols Rise

Total expenditures for new construction rose slightly in July to a new monthly peak of almost $3'3 billion and were 8 per cent above July 1952, according to preliminary estimates of the U. S. Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Building Materials Division of the U. S. Department of Commerce. The small July increase (about 2 per cent above the June estimate resulted chiefly frorn seasonal gains in highrvay construction and in private outlays for public utilities, plus a more than seasonal rise in commercial construction.

Thus far in 1953, new spending records have been established for several types of construction, including private expenditures for new. residential building, public utility construction, and commercial and educational building. In the public sector, expenditures for highways and schools also exceeded any previous January-July total. Although private industrial construction has been declining since February, expenditures in 1953 for this work almost equaled the record 1952 figure, when the totals for the first 7 months are compared.

Total expenditures for new construction put in place during the first 7 months of 1953 amounted to $19.3 billion, a gain of 8 per cent over the same 1952 period, and physical volume (expenditures adjusted for price changes) also was up slightly from 1952.
