the six months from January to
July. 1916. $4,000 cars averaging
more cars each day during the six
months than In the whole OF the
year 1905. This corporation employs
$4,000 men.
ION Jan. | OF this year the cars
and trucks registered in the United
States amounted to 2.4aS,77S. Ac-
cording to The Automobile" of Aug.
II, the registration had run mp TO
2,922,455. showing 50S,677 more
autos In use now than on Jan. /.
THE increase which took place in
use OF machines from Jan / TO June
so, 1916, was almost equal to the
total increase for the whole year OF
1915. There are now three states
having over 100000 cars apiece
New York, Ohio and Illinois. Eleven
states have over 100000 machines
each. four having passed into this
class since Jan. namely. Mime
sofa. Massachusetts. Indiana and
Texas.
The greater part OF the output

hands Of few strong concerns, max
Ing for intensive economy OF manu-
facture.
"Of the estimated production OF
automobiles for 1916, 1900 900 (pas-
senger cars. not trucks). more than
one million cars will ne turned out
by the Ford. the General Motors. the
Willys-Overland. Chevrolet, Dodge,
Studebaker and Maxwell
The General Motors and Chevro-
let expect TO more than double their
output in 1917, ana their sales force
could secure orders for n number
greatly in excess OF the above. if the
production could be had. The same
is true OF a number Of the larger
companies. One strong feature OF
these companies is the absence Of
bond issues
None Of the large automobile
companies are asking for credit

and the Ford, with It's $50. 900 600 or
more OF cash reserve, General
Motors with $4,000 600 cash on
hand, Wiliys-Overland with $4,000.

balance that any company mas ever
had at the same age--all these con
diiions stand for stability in the in
dustry.'

the Socialists are Office seekers, and
in the next breath you praise the
work of Kennedy and Rodriguez.
Have a heart, men!
The steady, persistent growth of
the movement is the best answer to
it's critics. Chicago nearly doubled
its Socialist vote. The Socialists

Daniel W. Hoan mayor against the
combined opposition Of both old par
ties by a majority of over 1000. All
over the nation rises the enthusiasm
of the workers that will not down.

SUNDAYISMS.-We note with in
terest though not approval the utter
ances of one Billy Sunday, relative to
]. D. R. He says: 81 have always
admired the way he stood squarely
by Jesus! My hat is off to him be-
cause, rich as he is, he always done
the right thing, by God"
Now, these brief extracts are not
punctuated as the paper put them,
but they are as common sense alone

shows that He never catered to the

Of the Sunday type.
This age is cursed with the effu-

Socialists have not taken a stand on
the money question. ROb't W. Howe,
a recognized authority on the cur
rency problem of today, has dealt
with the subject from the Socialist
viewpoint in a book entitled "The
Evolution of Banking" This book
may be obtained from the national
headquarters, 8O3 W. Madison st.
The truth is, gentlemen, the Socialist
party has not drifted away from fun
damentals-yoU have drifted away
from the party. Get back, hew to
the line with the rest of us, and keep
the movement free of reformers. By
working together we can achieve
our common end.
With Benson and Kirkpatrick as
our standard bearers 1916 promises
to be our banner year. Let's get into
the fight with a spirit that knows no
defeat.-Thomas LeVish.
