GREAT INCREASE SHOWN
IN SALES OF AUTOS
Total of 244,245 Cars Mar keed by Licensed Manufac
turers-Feelng Is That Production Is Where
Dealers Must Plan Carefully

The Association OF Licensed AutomO-
bile Manufacturers has given statistics
covering the number of licensed cars
which have been manufactured from
1866 TO 1909 inclusive. and accompanied
this with a chart. which shows graph
caIy the number Of cars sold each year,
beginning with 1855 cars IN 1893, and
ending with g SCI in 1902 It shows that
total of 2A.345 cars have been sold
to date by licensed manufacturers
Perhaps nothing is more noticeable
in the chart than the enormous increase
of the 1903 output as compared with the
1glS product
The figures indicate that the licenses
under SClden patent alone made "a, e9I
