AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY.
That Business Rooms While Others
Suffer Depression.


Other industries may wax or wane,
but the automobile industry keeps
right on booming Last year saw an
astonishing development. In 1913
there were $4,000 cars registered in
the United States. In 1914 cars were
turned out at the dizzy rate of $4,000
a month and they found such ready
sale that the number Of registered rose
to 100000 1t will be but a little while
before the 100000 mark is reached

in the United States, or one for ever!
10 families.
These are not all pleasure cars, Ct
course. The truck business shows q
remarkable growth. More and more
the burden of the delivery traffic in
cities is being shifted from the horse
to the gas engine and storage battery
For the rapid handling of light parcels
the small truck Is found far more use
full than the team. For heavy hauling
the s or lotion truck is even more eff.
fective This branch of the trade has
been greatly stimulated by the war;
the French, British and Germans are
utilizing trucks to tote guns and carry
supplies and the rapid transfer of
troops back Of long battle line.
In passenger vehicles the most not.
able development is the popularity OF
the small, low priced car. One De-
troit manufacturer who specializcs in
this type turned out last year more
cars than the whole world together
produced four years ago.

ROADS IN FRANCE
ALMOST DESTROYED

Paris. March 15.-Rain and war to-
gether have completed the destruc-
ton of the admirable high roads in
the north, Of which France was once
proud. The continual passage OF
heavy artillery and Of the laundering
motor trucks have worn deep ruts
into them, now filled, with mud that
sticks like glue. Within range Of the
semi-fixed battle line. the ruts are
nothing compared to the multitude of
funnel-shaped holes where the big
German shells have ripped out the
macadam and gouged sometimes three
feet deep into the roadway. Speed
is now certain suicide on these routes
and the work of bringing up supplies
has suffered accordingly. 1t requires
three motor trucks now to do the work
accomplished by two month ago.
The rapid increase in the French mo-
tor equipment has made it possible
to surmount the difficulty at the ex.
pense of an enormous wear and tear.
