President H. w. Cassleman of
the West Side Oakland Sales
Company Gives Interesting
Facts and Figures About a
Great Corporation.

President Harry w. Cassleman, the
popular and progressive head of the
West Side Oakland Sales Company,
furnishes us with the following in
formation, direct from the General
Motors Company:
The automobile industry employs
100000 people, which is equal to half
as many as are employed by all the
railroads in the United States. Fig
uring three to a family makes $780,
600, which number would populate the
cities of Philadelphia, ST. Louis and
Boston combined, or any one of the
states of Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky,
Minnesota, Tennessee, Virginia, New
Jersey, North Carolina, Wisconsin,
California, Georgia, or Indiana. Gen
era1 Motors has 10000 employees, IA
per cent of the automobile industry's
workers.
The annual wages paid to the work
people of the industry is 1913, 731, 900,
which is more than PA times the
gross revenue of the United States
post Office in 1917, and equals all the
gold in circulation in the United
States at the end of the same year.
General Motors pays s150,000,000 a
year in wages, $3.50 more per man per
year than the average throughout the
industry
The capital invested in the industry
is 1927, 100000, which is greater by
| $250,000,000 than the capital of all the
| national banks Of the United States
of America, and more than the com
| bined capital stock of the New York
| Central, Pennsylvania, Chicago &
| Northwestern and Chicago, Milwau
kee & st. Paul railways, and more
than twice as great as the combined
| outstanding capital stock of all the
| Standard Oil group of thirty-five com
panies.
The capital employed in the indus
| try for the manufacture of parts is
| $4,000, 900, which is nearly so pei
cent greater than the outstanding CAPT
| tai stock Of all the gas and electric
companies listed on the New York
Stock Exchange.
The total value of automobiles
manufactured in 1919 was $1,SS5, 112,
| 546. General Motors net sales were
s5O9, 676,694, which is 20 per cent OF
| the industry's total.
There are 7,9O4,271 cars in regular
use in the United States AT an aver
age mileage of 5000 per year, which
is very low, makes a total mileage Of

VOTE FOR
THOMAS NJ. SULLIVAN
His Peerless Record AS Sanitary
Trustee Entities Him to
the Office.

One of the best men to hold the
position of Sanitary Trustee was
Thomas M. Sullivan. His record as a
member of the board was above re-
proach. He is honest, able and aggres-
sive.
Thomas M. Sullivan deserves cleo
tlCr as a candidate for trustee of the
Sanitary District of Chicago.
His former record on the BOARD is a
sufficient guarantee of his ability and
trustworthiness
AS chairman of the engineering
committee during his former term he
placed $4,000 arc lamps in the streets
of Chicago.
He turned the first shovelful of dirt
on the Sag Channel and labor was
given abundance of work while he
vas chairman of the committee.
His work was of progressive char
acter and the different committees of
women, both Democrats and Repub-
licans, who made study Of his rec
ord and attended all meetings have
often testified to his efficiency and ex-
pert knowledge of Sanitary District
affairs.
Mr.. Sullivan is an ardent advocate
of a deep waterway to the Gulf. He
believes that the land owned by the
District along the North Shore and
it's channel to Lockport and, incl
denally to Starved Rock, should be
used for building a boulevard to re-
lieve the congestion on our streets.
He is known as an expert on the
very complicated question Of sewage
disposal.

If the Chicago Telephone Company
would use the Automatic system
which it now owns it's really able and
efficient officers would be saved from
the numerous complaints about
wrong numbers"-and other things.

be hot one.

ALDERMEN CRY
PROTEIN" AT CITY
PHONE SERVICE

The Chicago Telephone company is
Gin bad" with members of the city
council because of poor service. Many
of them joined in a severe criticism
of the service given to the city hall
and council action is threatened.
Rotten" said Aid. James Dorney
of the oath ward. There is no other
way to describe the service. One
would think that the company would
make at least half-hearted effort to
give a fair service to the municipal
building. However, my experience,
as we'll as that of other members of
the council, is that the company seems
to be trying to give the city hall the
poorest service possible. 1t takes one
a full minute or two to get connec-
ton, and in eight cases out Of ten the
wrong number is given. Then it be-
comes almost impossible to get the
operator back on the wire"
Other members of the city council
corroborated the complaint of Aid.
