VAST EXTENT OF INDUSTRY
Wonderful Development In the
Manufacture Of Cars.

Present manufacturing schedules
call for 1.4i9.325 cars to be made dur
ing 1916. Careful analysis shows l..
100000 to be probable
Half a dozen manufacturers alone
figure on building. collectively. at least
100000 cars for the 1916 season,
which began last fall.
1t is prophesied that the number OF
motor trucks made In 1916 will be
more than $4,000.
In one month motor car makers
buIidIng more cars now than in the
entire year of 1908. when $4,000 were
marketed.
In the United States there are 327
factories actively engaged In building
automobiles and 81 of these are in
Michigan.
On March there were more than
100000 cars registered in the United
States. During the year these will use
over 100000 tires. burn 1.500, 900 900
gallons OF gasoline and consume rs,
100000 gallons Of lubricating oil.

Many tires have to be junked be-
cause they blew out and the owner
could not account for the action. Some
times a tire blows out. even though
the day previous there was not a mark
OF any kind on the tread. This is
quite possible, and is frequent in the
rural districts. being caused by stone
bruises. II a tire strikes a stone about
four inches in diameter and this stone
happens TO have a sharp edge which
strikes the tread, il is possible the
fabric within has become Injured This
injury may not show on the outside,
but may be in the form OF a break in
the fabric. This break spreads under
the fexing OF the tire ami pinches the
inner tube. which then blows out

Bar Broken Autos From Town.

Burgess J. K. P. Fener of Ashley
borough has issued an edict that
drivers Of automobiles win not be per-
mitted TO stop their machines within
the borough limits to make repairs of
any sort. Even in case of a pune
ture or blowout, the auto drivers will
not be permitted TO use the streets az
repair shops. according to the official
decree.

Fewest Parts-Will Be Mucn
Easier In Their oper-

Oficial figures show that close to
100000 motor cars were licensed in
this country in 1915. and it is conser-
vatively estimated that at least 1,000,-
900 persons are driving their own cars
this year.
A significant thing about the large
proportion OF owners who run their
machines themselves is that the sale
OF automobiles in the United States
is far from being limited to those who
understand mechanical things. In 9TH
er words, the degree in which the au-
tomobile may be classed as a vehicle
which requires an expert to operate it
is diminishing rapidly.
Still. it is probable that not one per-
son in ten who operates a car knows
anything about mechanism. Such
condition is bound to have an i'm
portant influence on the future design
OF motor cars.
It is a condition which means a tend.
ency toward greater reliability in au.
tOmobiIes; simplicity in design and
construction-the smallest possible
number of things to look after and
care for.
In this connection it is interesting
TO observe that there is a real distinc-
ton between American and European
cars, based on the proposition that in
this country cars are to a very large
extent driven and taken care Of by
their owners. while in Europe probably
the majority are looked after by me-

Italian motor truck manufacturers
are enjoying a business boom as the
result OF the European war. according
to reports that are reaching America.
Practically every truck factory within
its boundaries is being operated "a

demand from the nations at war and
their own country. The production Of
pleasure cars. however. has practical

chanics and operated by chauffeurs
for this reason. in selling cars to
europeans it probably is all right to
equip the machines with four-speed
transmission. for example. Compli-
Gated mechanism is not as serious an
objection as in this country, where not
one car in 10000 has a four-speed
transmission.
