 NOW OWNED IN STATE

PHOENIX. Sept 1.-There were BIAS more automobiles in the state of Arizona on July 31. 1919. than there were year ago. according to figures compiled al the office Of Nit Simms secretary of state. On July 31, 1918. there were 22.750 cars registered in Arizona On July 31. 1919. there were 25.ssS.
 The increase is fairly we'll divided among the counties of the state. only two Apache and Mohave showing de- creases. Maricopa leads the list. with 92s5 cars. or three times the number of automobiles in any other county Cochise is second with S527 cars an increase Of only 37 over the previous year. Maricopa's increase is 1886.
 Receipts from the sale of auto Ii. censes to July 31. this year. are s156.. 251.25, an increase Of s1s.e15.Ig.
 ownership of automobiles is as sure an indication of a community's growth and prosperity as can be found" said Simms, in discussing the figures. and according to this criter- ion there can be no doub. as to the rate of Arizona's growth The tota. registration last year was only Iit- tie over 23,0O0 cars. We have passed that mark already in little more than half the time. and probably will run to more than 30,000 licenses before 1920 rolls around"
