of estimates for 1950 ewhbd out t
an earlier
Coter study. Te anly similar estimates of

date kaot to us are thse
publIshed
by the thited Natioms in 1952 referring to
1949, and Prof. Colin Clerk's estimates is his
book the Conditims of Doonomio Progress (1951).
The attempt has bee sd to use all
readily available data. May of the estimating
teobaiques used have seoeusarily had to be
very cradt and readers are advised to read carefully the Intrdmotics and the notes to individual tables. Despite these limitatioms, it
is felt that the absemee of other estimates an
a comparable basls Justifies this effort.

These estimates are subject to the limitations associated with an

of the tables present alternative estimates for a number of countries.
The bases for them are indicated in the notes following eech table.
These alternative estimates were made in cases where no single
