An establishment manufacturing drills and lathes reported: Our records show about a 27% falling off in production, but we at- tribute 20% of this to slowing up of business and labor unrest. Decrease in Output — Amount Not Stated Twenty-four establishments reported a decrease in output accompanying the change in hours, but did not give the amount of such decrease. Conclusions for Metal Manufacturing 1. Over one-third of the metal manufacturing establish- ments studied were able to increase hourl...y output on a sched- ule of 48 hours or less, half of this number sufficiently to main- tain or increase the production obtained on their previous schedule of hours. 2. Although most of the plants investigated were oper- ating on a 48-hour week, practically the same proportion of establishments increased or decreased hourly output on the 45-hour or 44-hour week as on the 48-hour week. 3. The ability of a plant to increase hourly output de- pended largely upon the kind of work performed. In many of the plants requiring heavy physical labor, it was possible for the workers to increase their efficiency on the shorter schedule of hours.
