NAMES AUTO INDUSTRY
AS BASIC" BUSINESS

BY the council Of national defense
naming the automobile industry as one
Of the eight basic industries from which
facts and figures were desired for use
at the labor and industrial conference,
called by President Wilson at Wash
ington as the best possible remedy foy
the high cost OF living, Is not only a
positive recognition of the automobile
industry. but proves that the products
which this industry produces have be-
come basic utilities in the production
ana transportation OF all other prod
uets," says 0. w. Mcclure, president
Of the Mississippi Valley Motor Car
corporation.
"Take the other seven basic indus
tries, steel, cotton, wool, food, indus
trial construction, shipbuilding, road
and bridge construction. All of these
industries depend to great extent on
the motor truck as well as the auto
mobile In the transportation OF ma
terials, supplies, equipment, men and
other factors that enter into their dis
tributing activities.
Without the motor truck, steel prod 4
ucts, bales OF cotton and wool, tons
OF food, construction equipment, tool
and materials for shjpbuilding, and the
men and equipment for road and bridge
construction work could not be eco
nomically transported.
1T is natural. therefore, when the
leading and prominent executives in the
eight basic industries start their CON
ference, the object of which Is TO re-
duce the high cost Of living, that they
would want facts and figures on Just
how the motor truck and the auto
mobile help in keeping high prices
down. Without doubt there will be
such a mass Of figures and statistics
that prove the economy of the auto
mobile and motor truck, that in the
final analysis when the plans Of the
conference have been approved by the
signed by the president, you viii find
