Steady Growth of Sales,
The increase of production i'm 1904
over 1903 was 80 per cent, and the in
crease in the value Of the gross sales
was So per cent. The increase of pro-
duction in 1905 was 81 per cent, and the
increases in sales was Sc per cent.
Mr. BudiOng'S testimony furnished
interesting figures in the gradual in
crease in selling price of licensed auto
mobiles. In 1903 the average selling
price was s1,1T0, in 1904 it was 81 1922,
and in 1906 it was 81, $50. For the three
years the average selling price of
American automobiles was 1929, and
that of imported cars was Sc, 40.
The increase in selling price is
claimed to be much less in proportion
to the increase in cost of production.
Setter material is used than formerly
at almost double the cost, skilled labor
has gone up in price, while machine
work has become more thorough and
more expensive. The material used
in American automobiles is declared
to be equal 10 any in the world. and
the prediction is made by American
manufacturers that in 1907 the Ameri-
can industry will lead the world in ex-
cellence as well as in volume.
