ar Prices Show
Small Real
Increase
r :, ,


One way in which motor cars have
been slow is in following the world
VIDE price increase movement in near
~ all lines during the last three years.
This fact has been developed in sur
prising way by comparative analysis
of price fluctuations of automobiles
and leading commodities just made by
the National Automobile Chamber Of
Commerce, as shown in the accompany
inc table.
The average wholesale price of all
the automobiles and motor trucks pro-
duced in the United States during the
last six years shows a decrease each
year ranging from Al per cent to 1865
per cent until last year, when there
was an increase of per cent. Prices
of thirteen principal commodities, as
reported by "Bradstrcet's" index, de-
creased slightly until 1915. IN that
year they increased Is per cent, in
1916 more than % per cent, and last
year more than 80 per cent English
commodity prices have increased S7.5
per cent since 1919
