Conch Bdiar Twenty -'Sixth Issue COMPILED IN THE OFFICE OF THE DIRECTOR-GENERAL* OF COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE CALCUTTA SUPERINTENDENT GOVERNMENT PRINTING. INDIA 1909 PREFACE T) ETAIL prices are expressed in India generally in terms of the number of sers (one ser=2’057 lbs) per rupee and were so published in tables Nos. 1 to 13 up to the 24th (1907) issue of this Volume. For convenience of comparison with wholesale prices, retail prices have since been shewn in terms of rupees and decimals of a rupee per maund (82*286 lbs). In the present issue two new tables Nos. 32 (15) and 32 (16) have been added to shew the average wages paid at a typical jute mill in Bengal and a typical rice mill in Burma. The tables have 'been limited to the last twenty-five years, together with the base year 1 B73 or any later year in which prices were first quoted.

C.l. NOTE ON VARIATIONS IN PRICES OE FOOD CRAINS AND SALT Reason for fluctuations in prices in each quinquennium. 1871—70 A general rise of prices took place about 1860. With the suppression of tbe Mutiny and the transfer of the administration to the Croivn, there commenced a new era of commercial . ~ ' and industrial activity. The resources of the country were developed by the construction of roads and railways, the improvement of harbours, and the ex+ension of irrigation. The cotton famine caused by the American War of Secession (I'lGl — 65) gave a great impetus to the cultivation of cotton in India, which, while the war lasted, brought large profits to the cultivator and the merchant. The influx of the precious metals which had begun about the time of the Mutiny was thus further stimulated, and from about the second year of the war a great rise of prices took place throughout the cotton-growing districts of Western and Central India, as also in a smaller degree in other parts of the coimtry. Prices were also raised by the famine of 1861 in the Upper Doab of the province of Agra and the neighbouring districts of the Punjab and Eajputana and by the scarc'ty in Cutch. On the collapse of the inflation caused by the American war, prices would have fallen but for the great famine ISGG "0 ' Orissa, which extended into Bengil proper, Biliar, Madras, and the eastern part of the Central Provinces. Another notable famine — that of 1869 — affected Western Eajputana and parts of Northern India, and the extension of scarcity, towards the west and south, produced a rise of prices in Bomba}'', the Central Provinces, and Hyderabad. During 1871 — 75 prices were not seriously disturbed by any calamity except the scarcity in Bihar of 1874, and although large purchases of grain were then made by the Government and scarcity prevailed in the adjoining districts of the United Provinces, the disturbance of prices was not ividely felt. The export trade in rice expanded greatly in 1872-73, and was on a large scale throughout the decade 1871— SO. It showed greater contraction in 1874, the year of the Bihar famine, than in the Deccan famine three years later. In this quinquennium occurred the great famine of 1877-78, which aflected an enormous tract in Western and Southern India and extended uith diminished intensity into the north, I8i0— 80 causing a general rise of prices of food-grains all over India. The ex-port trade in wheat, which had begun in a small way after the opening of the Suez Canal in 1870, received a check in the years 1878 — 80. Speaking generally, all crops except rice were good or abundant during these years, though there was scarcity 'n a portion of th" Panjab in 1884 and distress in parts of Bengal and Madras 1881—80 1885. Ti e rice crop was bad between 1883 and 1885 ouing to drought and floods, but wheat was plentiful, and the average price for all giains was low. It is difficult to find adequate reasons for the great rise in prices which took place during these five years, for the 1889 famine in Ganjam (accompanied by distress in Orissa and scarcity in Bihar) was only of local importance, and prices had already reached their highest point in 1888. The export trade in food-grains was not larger than in the preceding quinquennium. The high prices ruling during 1886 — 90 were still further raised in 1891-92 by prolonged drought, causing scarcity and distress in Madras, Bombay, the Deccan, Bfliar, and Upper Burma. A strong Indian demand for rice w'as coupled ■with large exports, and at the same time there was an unprecedented exportation of wheat owing to the failure of crops in Eiuope, so that Indian prices rose almost to famine levels. With better seasons prices fell, but tbe lowest point reached in 1891 — 95 was still above the average level of the previous quinquennium; and, as in that period, the importation of silver 'for coinage continued on a large scale until the closure of the mints in June 189ffi The year 1896-97 was one of intense and widespread famine. The r limatic conditions in the autunm were generally most unfavourable, and it was certain by the end of November that famine must supervene over a great extent of the country. It was most severe - in the North-West Provinces and Oudh, and in the Central Provinces, where the calamity was seriously aggra- vated by the fact that in these territories there had been two previous years of short harvest. The winter rains, however, did good to the greater part of Madras, Bengal, Western India, and Eajputana, and also the greater part of the Panjab. Tbe prices of food had been higher than usual in Northern and Central India before the failure of the autumn rains ; but they had been moderate in Bengal, Madras, and Bombay up to September 1896. In September 1896 prices rose suddenly and in October famine prices were reached in Northern and Central India, though in Bengal, Madras, and Bombay the. highest level was not reached till .some months later.

Table No. 14 — Staple articles of Imports — The articles in this table, though few in number, represent in their aggregate value a large share of the total import trade. On the average of the last tliree years the imports of cotton-goods (yarn and manufactures), of metals, and sugar represent about 53 per cent of the whole imports into India. In consequence of the development of the Indian 'coal-fields, foreign coal is no longer a considerable item in the import trade ; and the rapid increase in the imports of kerosene oil, which began in about 1888, has been checked by the competition of oil produced in Burma. The quotations are taken for Calcutta from the Price Current and Market Report of the Bengal Chamber of Commerce. The price of coal at Bombay is taken from the Bombay Market Report, and of gold from the Calcutta Price Current and Money Market Report, and the prices of sugar — Mauritius, and silk are reported monthly by the Commissioner of Customs, Bombay. The average price of bar silver in London as quoted daily by the Bank of Bengal is also given in this table. The prices quoted are those for the first week of Januar)’’ and July in each year, or where quotations are not available for these v/eeks, for the nearest period. Table No. 15 — This table shows the variations in the prices quoted in table No. 14, taking the prices of the year 1873 as 100. In case of articles for which the record of prices began in a year later than 1873, the price of the first year for which quotations are given is taken as 100. Table No. 16 — Staple articles of Exports — The prices in this table are taken from the following sources : — Calcutta ; — The Price Current and Money Market Report of the Bengal Chamber of Commerce. . Bombay : — Current quotations of the Chamber of Commerce, Bombay Market Report and Trade Journal published in connection with the Times of India, the Current quotations of the Millowners’ Association for the price of yarn and T, cloth, and a Monthly Report from the Commissioner of Customs for the price of wheat. Karachi ; — ^Price Current and Market Report of the Karachi Chamber of Commerce. - Madras : — ^Price Current and Market Report of the Madras Chamber of Commerce. Rangoon : — ^hlonthlyReport from the Chief Collector of Customs. The price of opium is obtained from the Finance Department. The number of articles in this table is very much larger than the number of articles in the import table, and their aggregate value represents about 85 per cent of the total value of exports from India in the last three years. The prices quoted are those for the first week of January and July in each year j^with a few exceptions which are mentioned in foot-notes below the tables. Table No. 17 — ^This states the variations of the prices in table No. 16, the price of 1873 (in most oases the pnee in March) being taken as 100. In case of articles added to the list after 1873, the price of the first year for which quotations are given is taken as 100. Tables Nos. 18 and 19 — Comparison of the average prices in India and London of staple trade commodities and variations in the prices — Table No. 18 was prepared with figures from 1870 for the consideration of the Royal Commission appointed in 1886 to enquire into the changes in the relative values of gold and silver. It was pub- lished for the first time in the volume of Prices and Wages in India in 1890. It has now been limited to the fast twenty-five jmais with the base year 1873. The London prices arc the annual averages of weekly quotations given in the Economist. The Indian prices quoted are all Calcutta prices except those of cotton and rice. They represent the average of weekly quotations given in the Calcutta Price Current, which is published by the Bengal Clxamber of Commerce. The price of cotton is taken from the Current quotations of the Bombay Chamber of Commerce. The price quoted for Rangoon (Ngatsain and Ngakyouk) rice is the average of the prices reported in a special monthjy return which is received from the Cliief Collector of Customs, Rangoon. In 1898 prices of Burma rice were substituted for those of Bengal rice. Tables Nos. 20 to 22 — Average prices in London of sixteen principal staples of trade and of bar silver and varia- tions — ^Table No. 20 was prepared in 1883 for the Royal Commission mentioned above. It was reproduced in the volume of Prices and Wages in India in 1890, with the addition of two descriptions of cotton, namely, (1) Cotton, raw, Dhollera, mid, fair, and (2) cotton, upland, mid, fair. It has also been limited to the last tw'enty- five years with the base year 1873. The prices in table No. 20 are the annual averages of prices reported in the monthly Trade Supplement to the Economist. Li 1899 the following additions and alterations were made ; — 1. Coffee (Ceylon) was changed to coffee (East India plantation) 2. Indigo (Bengal), Jute Linseed (Bombay), Rapeseed (Calcutta) Rice (Bmgal), Silk (Surdah), Cotton- raw (Dhollera), and Shellac rvere omitted — as London prices for all these articles, except shellac arc shown in table No. 18. > 13 4 100 EXPLA^^ATORY NOTE AND.

A new table (table No. 21) shewing variations in the prices in table No. 20 was added. The following changes in the tables were made in 1900 : — 1 . Iron — Scotch pig, flour, leather, and butter were added. 2. Another new table (No. 22) shewing variations in the prices measured in silver was added. The system on which table No. 22 is compiled is fully explained in a foot-note printed below the table. Table No. 23 — Annual wholesale prices of food-grains and other articles — Since 1897 wholesale prices of food- grains and certain other articles have been reported for selected marts in each province of India under orders issued bv the Government of India in 1896. The following is a list of the articles for which fortnightly wholesale prices are reported, and the provinces from which reports are received. The number sho-wn under each province indicates the number of marts in that province from which wholesale prices for the article in question are reported. ;Xame ofarticlca Burma Eastern Bengal and Assam Bengal United PfO\ lU- ces llaj- putana 1 ranjab Balu* tins tan Sind Bombay Berar Ceufral Pro^ m- CCS Aladra^ M>so:o Arecauut . 3 .

By far the most important class of labour is agricultural, and the record obtained entirely fails to give a reliable indioation of the remuneration of the labourers. This result is due to the inherent difficulties of the problem, and the practical impossibility of getting the untrained reporting agency to make the necessary allowances for the varying conditions of employ- ment. Payment in kind is commonly practised, either for the entire wage, or as a supplement to cash wages, and the supplements vary according to the season and the nature of the employment. The regularity of employment also varies greatly, and employment is practically rfowhere continuous throughout the year. The most common expedient for avoiding these, and other difficulties, is to return cash wages for labourers employed in towns or their neighbourhood, which arc in no way typical of the rates prevailing throughout the district. The same difficulties are also encountered in collecting information as to the wages earned by village artizans, and the results are further vitiated by assuming that masons, carpenteis, and blacksmiths necessarily earn the same wages. The wages of horse-keepers arc recorded with the least inaccuracy, but even if they are taken as typical of the wages of domestic service generally, the class represented is unimportant. The selection of the districts, for which figures are published in the tables, is also faulty, as the districts are not typical of tracts having similar economic conditions, but are those originally selected according to their climatic character and rainfall for making returns of the prices of food-grains. Measures are now being taken to replace the present faulty returns by more scientific methods of investiga- tioii, whose object will be to ascertain the standard rates of wages in each district or homogeneous tract, and to observe permanent changes in those standard rates as distinct from short period fluctuations. The most imporr- ant feature of the new method is a regular wage census to be conducted once in five years, the first of which will be taken in 1911. Tables Nos. 31 and 32 are the record of wages paid in certain State Railways and Government Establi.sh- ments as well as in some Industrial Establishments in various parts of the country. The figures in table No. 31 are reported annually by the Director General of Post Office, the Agetat to the East Indian Railway, the Jlanager of the North Western Railway, the Irrigation Department of the Govern- ment of Bengal, the Public Works Department of the Government of the United Provinces and the Accountant General, Military Department ; and those in table No. 32 are supplied by the owners or managers of the different industrial concerns.
