Changes in the Workweek of Fixed Capital: U.S. Manufacturing,
1929 to 1976, by Murray F. Foss, examines the changes in the num-
ber of hours worked by manufacturing plants. Although employees
now work a much shorter week than they did a half century ago,
the workweek of fixed capital--factories, warehouses, and the like-
has lengthened by approximately 25 percent, because of increased
shift work. The author analyzes factors influencing this increase,
which has significance for the contributions of capital and produc-
tivity to the long-run growth of the U.S. economy. The basic data
came from a new survey of the Census Bureau and from the 1929
Census of Manufactures.
     Murray F. Foss, a visiting scholar at the American Enterprise
Institute, has served as a senior research associate at the National
Bureau of Economic Research in Washington and, from 1969 to 1975,
as a senior staff economist with the Council of Economic Advisers.
Earlier, he was editor of the Suroey of Current Business and chief
of the Current Business Analysis Division of the Bureau of Economic
Analysis in the Department of Commerce.
