America's Wealth of the Nation Revealed in Real Assets
An analysis from The Conference Board estimates U S national wealth at about 360 billion dollars in 1928, with real estate and factories forming the bulk of assets. Money in circulation totals around five billion, while real estate, farms, equipment, and personal property account for the rest. Per capita wealth runs near three thousand dollars, with Nevada and Alabama showing extremes in regional wealth distribution. The piece contrasts wealth with money, notes tax-exemption portions, and cites state and national figures as of 1928.
