REVEW OF n the following pages as in former yean ad attempt is made on the basis of the available atatistical informalion to review briefly the trends in the various sectors of the Union' economy in order to obtain a composite picture of the country's economic development during the year just passed As a background thereto it may be well to slart by recalling that from the review of a year ago which covered the Union'! economic development during the year 1951 it appeared that the sharp postdevaluation upward movement in the country's economic activity durina; 1950 was continued during the first half of 1951 but considerably slowed down dur~1 the second hal{ of that ycar During the year 1952 manifold exlcrnaj influences had their effect directl y or indirectly on the Union' economy As examples of hese may be mentiooed the continuation of international political tensions; the further heavy expenditure on rearmament by a number of countries although signs of slackening in this respect appeared towards the end of the year; the balance of payments difficulties experienced by several countries notably in the sterling area which led 10 disinflationary monetary and fiscal policies as well as restrictions on trade; the considerable contraction in the supply of capital available abroad for investment in developing cou ntries like the Union: the international textile crisis which however sbowed signs of passing off towards the end of the year; and the declining tendency in world raw material prices On the other hand there were several internal [actors which also played an important part in shaping the Union's economic development during 1952 such b the rise in the interest rate structure and the accompanying monetary stringency; the more strict application of import control; the maintenance of price controls; and the continued shortage in mining labour as well as in traollportation servica Furthermore the year 1952 cannot be passed over without referring to the progress made in respect of several laraescale investment projects such as the South African Coal Oil and Oas Corporation the Phosphate Development Corporation am the CAtraction of uranium by a number of gold mining companies although the effect of these developments as well as of the expansion of electricitygenerating capacity should be felt more at a later date n regard to the statistical material' utilised in the fo llowing pages it should be mentioned that during &e year 1952 the Reserve Bank followed the lead of the nternational Monetary Fund and the United Nation by changiog the base year for au of itj iodexci from 1938 to 1948 The cbange to a poslwar baae year haa been made in view of the exceptional developmentj which have taken place in the vi ECONOMC CONDTONS N THE UNON N 1952 Union's economy during the war and posl war years it being felt that more realistic index numbers are obtained in this way The year 1948 has been chosen as the new base year because as far as can be judged at present from developments during the years 1946 to 1952 it would appear to represent an acceptable postwar norm As some of the series for example retail sales and stock exchange turnover are only available from 1948 the switch 10 th is year as the new bak period has had the additional advantage of allowing all of the available indexers to be placed on a comparable basis Unless otherwise stated therefore all of the indexes quoted 10 this review refer to the base 1948 = 100 PRODUCTON Agricultun The latest preliminary estimates of the Division of Economics lind MarketJ iodicate that the gross value of agricultural production which had increased from about 210 million in 1949150 to about 291 milion in 1950/51 declined to about 255 million in 1951{52 The decline of about )6 mi11ioll from 1950/51 to 1951/52 WRll almost full y accounted for by a decline of about 35 million in the value of the wool output namely from about 79 million to about 44 million which reflects the strodg decline in wool prices during this period The value or output or all other agricultural products combined declined by only 1 million namely from about 212 million in 1950/51 to about 21 1 million in 1951 /52 n regard to these figures it should be noted that they refer to the years ending 30th June and not to the calendar years 1951 and 1952 Mining Revised figures published by the Government Mining Engineer indicate that excluding quarry producu the value of the Union's total mineral production (largely based on sales figures) increased from 2038 miiljon in 195 1 to 2 144 million in 1952 compared with 193 3 million in 1950' The further increase from 1951 10 1952 was the result of increases in the value of most of the more important types of minerals produced and it appears that there was also a substantial increase in the physical volume of output Largely as a result of the coming into production of the Orange Free State mines S Helena and These value fljure5 ~ shown with lold calcullted t W ) per filk Ounce and tbey do not thererore include the dditionll re~nue rcoeived by the Od minint: comparue in respect or lold Od lor mlnullcturinj ptlrpokj nd durinj 19H in respect or variltions in official loki prica Thil dditional re~nue amounted to lbout 4 million in 19' 2 compared with aearl)' 7 million in 19S1 Dd lbout a million in 1950

vii Welkom towards the end of 1951 and the West Transvaal Mines West Driefontein and Stilfontein during 1952 the Union's gold production increased from 11516000 fine ounces in 1951 to 11 8 19000 fine ounces in 1952 or in ternu of value from 142 9 million to 1467 million The four mines mentioned accounted for an increase of 421000 fine ounces from 1951 to 195210 that all the other mines combined showed a decrease of about 118000 fine ounces which reftects the continued shortage of labour on the mine The amount of coal sold increased from 28768000 tons in 1951 to JO038000 tons in 1952 or in tenns of value from 1l6 million to 146 million while copper sales although declining slightly from 38500 toni to 37600 tons increased in terms of value from 84 million to 1 \6 million The sales of all other base minerals combined increased from 185 million to 219 million while the sales of precious metals excluding gold increased (rom 40 million to 47 million and those of diamonds declined Slightly from 163 million to 148 millio\ n regard to mining employment he average monthly index increased from in 1951 to 116 in 1952 but as will be seen from the chart below the monthly indexes excluding seasonal vanatlolls ftuctuated on an approximately conslant level during 1952 compared with a slight upward movement in J9SL ~ rt EMPLOYMENT ' ~ ~ _ACT'' Volume indexcli (t94' too) ~ PRODUCTON ~ Seuonally adjukn Manufacturing While no uptodate information is available regarding the total output of manufacturing industries in the Union it would appear that judging mainly from the index of employment there wu a further increase in the physical volume of output from 1951 to 1952 Considering also the ' trong incre!se in Union wholesale prices during this period it ilct:ms that the value of manufacturing output showed a substantial increase The index of manufacturing employment which had increased from 103 in 1950 to )09 in 1951 increased further to 112 in 1952 but as will be seen Crom the chart above the upward movement in the monthly indues during 1950 and 1951 was not maintained during 1952 when the trend remained approximately consta nt atthe level reached towards the end of 1951 Electricity The index of electric current generated afur adj~tment for seasonal changes indicates a continuation throu&hout 1952 of the fairly strong upward movement durin& 1950 and 1951 as shown 00 the accompanyina chart The average monthly index increased from 126 in 1951 to 135 in 1952 compared with 118 in 1950 Building After increblling from 1052 in 1950 to 1485 in 1951 the average monthly index of the value of building plans p;1ssed in the eighteen principal cities of the Union declined to 1151 in 1952 largely on account of a decline in the case of commercial buildings although there was also a decline in plana paued (or teiidential buildings As can be seen from the chart below the monthly indexes afler correction for seasonal movements showed a continuation during 1952 of tbe downward tendency which had set in durm the last few months of 1951 Similarly the indu of the value of buildings commenced in these cities showed a declining tendency durin& 1952 the average monthly index falling from 1519 in )951 to 1288 in 1952 compared with 1078 in 1950 The index numbers of building plaru passed and buildings commenced do not however provide a good indication of actual building activity during the periods to which they relate and it would appear from other available information that on an average monthly basis the activity in 1952 compared favourably with that in 195\ The sample figures of employment in the building and contracting industry collected by the Bureau of Census and Statistics for example showed an increase from 195 1 to 1952 while increases were also registered in the production of cement and buildin& bricks On the other hand taken on a monthly basis the index of employment tended 10 decline during the second half of 1952 from which it would appear that the downward movement in the value of building plans passed and of buildinas commenced began to make itself felt during the latter half of the year This is also in line with the available unemployment figures for the building industry which show that the average number of European and noneuropean artisans excluding natives registered as unemployed at Government Employment Exchanges was slightly higher in the second than in the first half of the year

x NTERNAL TRADE Judlinl by the indexes published by the Chambers of Commerce for lome of the principal orban areas in the Union it would appear that while the value of retail saln showed an increase in 1952 over thu in 1951 the physical volume of sales declined The avertae monthly indexes rdating to the value of turnover increased from 1081 in 1951 10 OB3 in 1952 in the case of Johannesbura from 1076 to 121 1 in the case: of Preloria from 1020 10 1063 U1 the ease of Cape Town from 1185 10 1236 in the case of East London and from 105 6 to 112 7 in the case of Durban Combinina thc5c figures the weighted aver1loae index for the five arells increased from 1066 in 195 1 10 1106 in 1952 ie by about 38 per cent As his increase was lower than the correspondina increase of about 100 per ceo in the Union's relail price index (excluding renl) it would appear that there was a decline in the physical volume of goods sold at retllil Considering he movements in the monthly indexes for the five areas combined and excludinl seasonal variations it would seem from the chart below that in the case of the value turnover the much reduced rale of increase durina 1951 compared with that in 19SO was approxima tely maintained durinl the fint half of 1952 but that during the second hall of the year the trend was s!iahtly downward n the C5C of the phyical volume turnover it appears tha apart from intermediary Huctuallons the downward movement which had set in during the!ttond hair of 1951 was continued durlna 1952 on RETAtL SALES ndue (t941 '' too) SA RALWAYS Seuou:aJly djused TRANSPORTATON The nettae monthly index of railway earnings in respect of transportation servi«j which had increased from 124 in 1950 to 141 in 1951 increased (unher to 146 in 1952 As indicated by the chan above thij funhcr increase in 1952 was largely accounted for by a strona upward movement in the monthly indexes exclooina seasonal varia tions during the firsl four month of the year the mnd beina slightly downward durin the telt of the year The index of total ton miles of revenueeaming traffic on the other hal\d apan from being higher in 1952 than n 1951 ahowed an upward tendency throughout the year 19$2 10 that it appean that relatively more and more oods in the lower rate aroups wue ttsnsponed during the last eight months of the year This 10 turn reftects the increase which look place in coal ttsnsponalion as well as the effect or the import control measures which were more strictly applied in respect or consumen' aoods BALANCE OF PAYMENTS Several notable chanes look place in the Union's balance of payments picture durina the year 1952 compared with 1951 As indicated under the heading Foreign Trade above the value of both imports and exports declined (rom 1951 to 1952 but since the decline in the rormer was about 43 million more than that in the lauer the country's trade deficit excludina lold which had increased (rom aboul 96 million 1950 to about 186 million in 1951 declined to about 14] million in 1952 Mler takina into accounl the Union' net lold output on the one hand and its dellcit in rupee! of cumn! invisible items (which increased during the year 1952 on account of increased dividends due to foreian investors and the Union's payments in respect of commitments in Korea) on the other it is found from preliminary estimates that tbe net cur rent deficit with the outside world which had increa~ from about nil in 1950 to about 104 million in 1951 declined to about 65 million in 1952 n regard to the lauer there were deficits of about 28 million in the finl quarter 27 million in the second quarter and 11 million in the third quarter while in the fourth quarter there was a small favour' able balance of aboul 1 million As rar as capital movements arc concerned the Union continued to how a ravourable balance in 1952 although on a reduced scale Prel im inary estimates indicate that the net inhow of private capital includinl trade credits and drawings under the uranium loan amounted 10 about 44 million while the Union Government drew about 10 million in the form of US dollars under the tbrd loans and revolvinl dollar credits and rtct:ived about Ci million in the (orm of a Swiss loan On the other hand there WAS a decline of about J million in the banu' shortterm rorein liabilities so that the tolal nct inftow of capital from all sources amounted to about $8 million in 1952 compared with about 66 million in 19SJ h a rhult of the net current deficit of about 65 million and the nel innow of capital of about $8 million he Union's total aold and foreign exchange holdinas ie of the RC5Crve Bank the

:tiii the commercial banks bank debits and national income Considering the shortterm trend during 1952 however it would appear that this remained approximately constant following the considerable reduction during the second half of 195 1 of the exceptional post<jevaluation rate of upward movemrnt during 1950 and the first half of 1951 The further increase in the monelary volume of ec<)nomic activity from 1951 to 1952 reftects the continued increase in the general level of prices rather than an increase in the physical volume of economic activity and it appears from the available information that the shortterm trend in the latter was slightly downward during 1952 n regard to the country's balance of payments and its national accounts the decline in imports from 1951 to 1952 caused a strong reduction in the net foreign current deficit so that the ratio thereof to the geographical national income declined from the high level of about 10 per cent in 1951 to about 6 per cent in 1952 Furthermore the decline in the net foreign current deficit more than offset the decline in the net inftow of capital in 1952 in the sense that it avoided any further substantial drain on the country's gold and foreign exchange reserves On the other hand in regard to capital formation it would seem that the ratio thereof to the national income showed a decline in 1952 compared with 1951 but it should be noted that thij was very largely due 10 a decline in investment in inventories The information available at present does not indicate any decline in investment in fixed equipment On the whole therefore it would appear thai in the economic field the Union entered a phase of relative stability in 1952 compared with the marked expansion in recent years T W de Jongh Statistician
