TEN MILLION
CARS BY 1921

Ten million cars in 1871 That is
the estimate made recently by expert
statistieians who base their figures
on the percentage OF Increase during
the past two years. This means that
there viii be one car for every ten
persons IN the United States, or one
car for every two families.
New York and Ohio have been
struggling for the supremacy In num-
her Of registrations, but the race has
turned in favor Of New York the en-
pire state leading by a comfortable
margin
An analysis OF the figures discloses
that five states have more cars regis
tered within their individual confines
than the entire continent Of Europe
These states-New York. Ohio Illi-
nois, California and Pennsylvania
have a combined registration OF p
445,536-3O per cent OF the entire
country's registration
The story told by these figures Is
that the automobile Industry Is IN an
era Of almost limitless expansion II
has converted those with pessimistic
views Of the future OF the industry
into genuine optimists. Il has forced
nation, state and county to establish
good roads building campaigns In
