Dr. Curtis Harris, by providing guidance and the resources of the Maryland Regional Forecasting Project, made the study possible. I am grateful to Professor Clopper Almon for originally suggesting the topic and also for placing the resources of the Maryland Interindustry Forecasting Project at my disposal. I am also grateful to Dr. John Cumberland for introducing me to regional analysis. The data compilation required in the study would not have been possible without the computer programming assistance of Mrs. Marianne Russek and Mr. William Donnelly (now of SUNY, Plattsburgh) who were members of the Maryland Regional Forecasting Project. The study was supported by the Economic Development Administration, Department of Commerce grant OER 161–G–67–7 and National Science Foundation grant NSF–GS–3217. Computer work was done on the Univac 1108 at the University of Maryland and the IBM 360–67 at SUNY-Binghamton.
