MARKET FOR JUNK CARS
Scientific Americanl

Not the least interesting side of the junk or waste material business has been the recent addition of a new side line, that of buying and scrapping old motor cars. The enormous production of motor cars in the last ten years has of course been attended by de- preciation of the usefulness of hun dreds of thousands of old cars. The market for these old cars has grown until it is now keeping pace with the growth of the. motor industry. There are in various parts or the United States large concerns which specialize in the buying and wrecKIng of old cars. The business is worth many millions of dollars a year.
