Aver.
*It should be noted that the Rochester index numbers, which have previously been based on May, 1916, have been adjusted to the January, 1915,
base in order that the figures for a given month may be compared for the three cities. For this purpose it was assumed by the Bureau of Statis
tics and Information of the New York State Department of Labor that the increase in Rochester from January, 1915, to May, 1916, was 6 per
cent.-the same as for the courtry as a whole or the average increase for New York City and Buffalo.
