SOURCES OF PERSONAL INCOME
Personal income fell $238.6 billion (annual rate) in January, mainly
reflecting the effect of the payment of a special dividend by the
Microsoft Corporation which had boosted personal income in December.
Excluding this and other special factors, personal income increased
$52.3 billion in January. Wages and salaries rose $30.9 billion in
January.
