PENNA.- SOME FIGURES


we have become SO used to talking
N millions in relation to PennsSlva-
mas products and natural resources that
we scarcely stop to realize what mil
non means. We produce coal by the
hundreds OF millions Of tons; steel by
teas OF millions and Oil, gas, stone and
9Cef things taken from what Provi-
qehce mas given SO b0untifully to the
keystone State or manufacture from the
raw material in such large amounts that
we do not think of the effect of such
imposing arrays of terms OF wealth upon
people across the seas
We calmly read that the State of
Pennsylvania licensed 800, coo or more
motor vehicles and received therefor
%, z59 600 in round numbers, all Of which
Will pc devoted to maintaining, not build
ing, but Just maintaining, roads. If each
motor vehicle is worth, averaging them
Up, about $780, that is something like
types.
The State Department of Agriculture
says that the seven major crops of Penn
acknowledgement, corn, rye, buckwheat
oats, nay and produced in 1871
were worth 1851, 500 600 in round numbers
which was S119, 900, 600 more than the
same crops were worth in 1916. And on
top of that we raised tobacco worth SILL
09o 000 apples and other fruit, chickens
ducks and cattle; gathered up eggs
clipped wool and made butter and cheese
worth tens Of millions more. These fig
yures, like those for the automobiles. are
hard to grasp.
And now comes Banking Commissioner
Lafean. who says that the resources Of
the trust companies, state banks and
savings institutions under State super
vision, and that does not include nation
al banks, are 81, JOS, $40 SO. That is
seventeen hundred millions over -four
times what all the crops above referred
to were worth in high priced 1917.
The number Of depositors increased l.
one year by 2S5 634. making a grand
army Of people with money in the bank
OF 2,857,591, or more .depositors in bank
ing institutions alone slan there are
men In our army now.
Bonds amounting to $243 600 900, almost
quarter of a billion dollars
The figures are dazzling. The increase
Of wealth is tremendous. If the prices
Of the manufactured mined or pipe9
products and the wages paid our labor
could be added in, the aggregate would
be almost beyond comprehension
Is it any wonder, to use. the words
Of one Of the speakers at the meeting
at the Capitol the other night, that
the United States was next on the
Kaiser's program? Is it surprising that
the Gernan army officers always liked
to talk about the rich country that the
PENNSYLVANIA railroad system tapped?
