RECORD BUSINESS
EXPECTEDFOR 1919

THE automobile business in 1919
is likely to equal, if not to surpass,
the high records OF 1911" So DR..
Paul H. Nystrom, director Of research
department OF the International Mag
azine Company. asserts in an article
in the January issue OF Motor" the
national magazine of motoring. Fur
ther, this well-known economist as
sures US that "If no untoward events
Of large and serious consequences oc-
cur, the production and sale OF cars
should reach the 100000 car mark
in 1920"
Summing up DR.. Nystrom's argu-
ments for a rapid resumption OF the
motor car industry on a pre-war
basis, we find that he believes that
basic business conditions are sound;
that there exists a large and po-
tential demand, due to past years
shortage and development Of greater
uses; that the export demand seems
certain to become an important fac
tor; that factory facilities are i'm
mediately available; that factory and
sales organizations are in reasonably
good form and ready to go ahead and
that raw materials will be available
as, and when needed.
After exhaustive invest ! a i
among the various individual con-
Germs, DR.. Nystrom gives it as his be-
lief that the motor car industry will
be running full capacity by mid
spring and probably in excess Of any
former schedules by next fall.
A competition among makers, keener
than any ever known in the industry
before, seems 20 be impending. ac-
cording to DR.. Nystrom, and in this
competition skill in marketing will
be as necessary to success as excel
lence and fitness OF product. He
bases this belief on that factory ca
pacity has been increased during the
war, so that manufacturers will try
to force production and sales to the
new capacity at the earliest possible
moment. The new classes OF pros
poets that are likely to be opened
up will require more intensive sales
rnanship than ever. In this connec-
tion the cuts in prices already an
nounced by certain manufacturers
may be accepted as simply the open
ing moves in this impending struggle
for new business.
Finally DR.. Nystrom makes the
prediction that production in 1919
will reach !. $50. 900, with @50,0OO COM
mercial vehicles. In 1920 he believes
that 100000 passenger cars will be
supplied. in addition to which 100000
trucks will be placed on the market
Altogether the motor industry seems
to have ahead OF IT some OF the
busiest years that il could possibly
ask.

SECTION
URGES COMMISSION
ON RURAL EXPRESS

F. II. Akers, sales manager Of the
REQ Motor Car Company, has been
doing some deep thinking and stu'iy-
ing on the rural express liues prob
lem. Not only that but he has been
gathering valuable information from
all parts Of the country where rural
motor express lines are in operation.
1T is like any other expedisnt de-
signed to meet an emergency says
Mr.. Akers, there are, apparently,
some wrinkles that must be ironed
out before the system will operate
entirely successfully.
"A rural express commission oper-
ating under State laws may event
ualIy have to be created in each State
TO control the situation; tariffs will
have to be established; and better
protected roads, IL not better roads
themselves, must be the inducement
TO interest business men.
ssNot long ago one OF our truck
dealers in washington saw a very
feasible untraversed motor express
route between q small town and n
fairly good sized city. A young clerk
in a clothing store had consistently
saved his money-had been reading
saw in the rural express idea an op-
portunity Of becoming his own boss
"a proprietor of a rural express
line-with every chance to expand.
The young man enlisted the help OF
the truck dealer.
Together they canvassed the mer-
chants in the town, and were as
sured OF enough business to make the
line pay, providing a reasonable
amount Of freight could be secured
in the city to haul back.
"The young man purchased the
truck and soon had a thriving little
business. Then another truck deal
er got busy and persuaded another
man to enter the business. compe-
titor No. 1. A truck dealer in the
city at the other end of the line in
duced a man there to inaugurate a
line on the same route. Competitor
No. . Shortly there were four COM
petitors on the one line, aud when
the business was split four ways
there was not enough money left
TO pay gGsolene bills.
Had q properly constituted Cum
mission been established with the
necessary authority to grant fran
chises and limited the route to two
competitors the enterprise would
have been a success. With the
franchise there would naturally go
some undertakings on the part CT
the truck owner.
For example. he would have 10
give q bond to deliver on schedule
the same as the parcel post contrac-
tor in any city, with a penalty at
tached for failure. Rates would be
established by this commission. A
truck owner should not be compelled
to make rates so low that he can't
give good service or yet, because OF
his franchise, be allowed to charge
exorbitant rates.
THE return loads bureau. which
is another factor in conducting tie
rural express system, Is something
else that will need careful attention.
The evil OF all loads being return
loads. will be q menace to the rural
express system unless carefully
guarded against. 1t is the greatest
system OF transportation ever de-
Vised and as such IL should be pro-
tected from its pitfalls.,.'

HOTELS Of FUTURE
MAYRUN GARAGES

II fVe New York hotels entertain
nearly 100000 visiting motorists in
the course Of year, what is the total
volume Of touring throughout the
country" asks Alexander Johnston in
@ Feoruary issue Of MOTOR, the
hatlohal magazine OF motoring. He
proceeds 70 answer his own query by
saying: THE only answer Is that IT
Is Tar in excess OF any figures that the
most optimistic Of US would have
dared to suggest"
Ihe basis Of the story il the move
vcently made BY I'VE OF the big New
5i noteIs-Biltmore, Manhattan,
Commodore-which have erected =.
garage for the use Of their patrons.
In planning this great hotel gar
age continues MOTOR, "the manage
ment OF these iVe hostelries worked
on certain definite data. They knew
tnat their houses entertained about
100000 guests in the course OF a
year. OF these they figured that near
y 100000 arrived in motor car.
Figuring that most of these were
family parties, an average OF four
persons per car was not excessive.
rms meant that they must be pre-
II - N-AS AeA apHArQ OF SUU,UOU
cars per annum. A six-story buiIdinr
capable Of housing 600 cars was the
outcome and this structure filled daily
IS able to accommodate Approximately
22O,OOO cars in the course Of a year.
incidentally, Ii is interesting TO
note that a heavy percentage OF these
big city hotel patrons come from
what may be called the suburban
area; that is from within a radius of
nfty miles OF the metropolis Also
the inhux OF motoring visitors from
nearby sections is heaviest during the
spring and fall, while long-distance
travel Is heaviest during the summer.
Both these conditions are what might
be expected"
This new hotel garage represents
the very latest ideas in garage con-
struction, and 1t will be interesting
to almost everyone in the automobile
Industry to note the DEVELOPMENTS
that the last few years have brought
For instance, there Is an UP ramp
and down ramp, instead OF having a
single runway for cars going either
way. Not only Is this a long step
forward. and II reminds US that long
ago cars were carried to the upper
floors OF garages by means Of eie-
vators. The Allen gasolehe pumping
system Is also described in some de-
tail, and its automatic features will
appeal to garagemen everywhere.
There are a number OF valuable, prac-
tical suggestions in this story for fea-
lures to be Incorporated in garages in
other cities.

spend between $4,000 and $23, 900
additional.
II the opinion of the alderman that
trouble would have been avoided if
ehere fas a building commission with
power to stop the erection OF the
school. Some of the members of the
committee asked if that doesn't come
under the jurisdiction of the building
inspector. 1t was voted to recon-
mead to the common council that Il q
ordinance be prepared which would
give such powers to the building in
spector and city engineer.
The next topic of discussion was
the collector of city revenue. 1t pro
posed to have all the revenue of the
city collected in the one office. AL
derman PaOnessa approved the idea
and spoke faVOring it as it would be
for the benefit of the city to have all
it's money taken in the one office.
There was opposition in regard to the
collection of water rents and water
money. Some of the members thought
the collecting of water rents, etc,
should be left to the water depart
ment as it is at present. Represent
tative Hall said he saw where Alder
man PaOneSSa was right in regard to
having the money collected in the one
office Corporation Counsel Cooper
was opposed to having the personal
tax collector collect taxes in the tax
collectors office. He said if ne was
under $4,000 bonds and receiving a
salary of $4,000 he Wouldn't stand
for having another mal put into the
office. The responsibility of the office
of tax collector was enough in his
oDinion. There was much discussion
following but the committee could not
decide whether they favored collect
ing through one office or not.

Extend Term of Aldermen.
The proposed change of the COM
mon council to is aldermen was the
subject of much discussion by the
committee Alderman Curtis favored
it in that it would lead to the election
of better men and men with better
executive ability to the council. That
is the class of men the council needs.
He also favored a three year term for
the aldermen under the new PLAZA.
One alderman should be elected each
year from each ward and in that way
there would always be an expert
enced council.
Corpora tiol Counsel Cooper also
spoke in favor of q longer term for
the aldermen for it would mean that
the city would have old and expert
enced Legislators and would profit in
the end. motion was then made
! that the resolution be amended to
read a term Of three years for the al
dermen and the charter revision com
mittee report favorably on it to the
| common council. This motion was
adopted by the committee.
Representative Hall said there
should be Il president Of the board Of
aldermen instead of the mayor of the
city presiding. That would be more
husiness-like and the mayor would
, still retain his right to speak as a,
member of the board. This idea was
approved by all the committee but
! was not Incorporated into the amend
ment until the mayor would have a
chance to speak on it,

The petition for the appointm ent

discussed. Alderman PaOnessa
