It was pointed out, however, that more than half the defense contracts awarded in the South Atlantic section comprised ship construction, which will be spread over a period of years. “High degrees of concentration of defense awards relative to net manufacturing output also exist in New England and in the Middle Atlantic states,” the Board said. “To the extent that regional dis= tribution of defense contracts changes the regional income pattern,” it added, “the central areas seem likely to lag, although there are two factors that will probably serve as offsetting influences.” First, a high percentage of fense plant contracts is awarded to interior areas for strategic reasons, and when these plants get into production the regional Income will be increased Second, the demand for nonmanufactured pvroducts, including agricultural commodities, will probably increase.”
