EIGHTEENTH ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE
SECRETARY OF COMMERCE
To the PRESIDENT:
DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE,
OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY,
Washington, November 4, 1930.
I have the honor to submit herewith the Eighteenth Annual Report
of the Secretary of Commerce in the following parts:
Economic Review.
Elimination of Waste.
Progress in Development of Civil Aeronautics.
Condensed Reports of Bureaus.
The Director of the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce in
his report has discussed in detail our foreign trade for the past year
and for that reason a separate review of that subject has not been
submitted.
As the Fifteenth Decennial Census was taken as of April 1, 1930,
the Director of the Bureau of the Census has embodied in his report
detailed information concerning that enumeration as well as the
several other censuses taken at the same time. Therefore, special
attention is invited to the report of that bureau.
The report has been prepared for transmission to Congress as
required by the organic act of the department.
Very sincerely,
R. P. LAMONT,
Secretary of Commerce.
