increasing. Department stores re-
port satisfactory buying while the
small retailers find conditions
vastly improved over what they
were two years ago. Increased bank
loans reflects a fundamental activity
in Business and industrial lite such
as two years ago seemed iar-off.
THE Secretary of Labor is re-
sponsible for the statement that at
no time in recent years has the
outlook for industrial peace been so
bright. The strikes which tied up
several of the basic Industries have
been ~peaceably settled and in their
wake has come an appreciation by
both employers and employees that
their mutual interests lie in CO.
operation rather than in strife.
Because Liberty Bonds are sell
ing at or above par it must not be
forgotten that only two years ago
they were quoted at ten to fifteen
per cent discount. The recovery
of these bonds to the issue price Is
rightly claimed by the present ad-
ministration as n of its greatest
achievements, directly due to the
economies effected in the admins
tration of the government. to the
reform of the revenue system, and
the general feeling of confidence
that the national legislative pro-
gram has inspired in the business
men of the country.

new JERSEY LEADING IN
MANUFACTURE OF OILS
BY GEORGE H. MANNING

WASHINGTON, Oct. 28.-Nev
Jersey produced over one-third of
all essential oils manufactured in
the United States last year. having
a good lead over all the other states
in that respect.
The activity of the industry drop
ped off considerably last year, the
value of the products amounting tC
$~3,271,120 in 1921, as against IS,
69S,403 in 1919, a decrease Of 42.6
per cent, the u. S. Census Bureau
announces.
OF the thirty-five establishments
manufacturing Oil Of peppermint,
spearmint, cloves, nutmeg, sandal
wood and other essential oils, re-
ported to the U. S. Census in 1921,
ten are located in Connecticut, seven
in Indiana; six in Michigan, five in
New York, four in New Jersey and
one each in California, Pennsylvania
and Tennessee.
The decrease in production was
accomplished by decreases in the
number of persons employed, total
amount paid during the year in sal
aries and wages, and in cost of ma
terials.
There were seventy-eight estab-
lishments reported in 1919 compared
with thirty-five in 1921; the number
of persons employed dropped from
493 to 391; salaries and wages paid
from $62O,0O3 to ~$513,328 or 17.2
per cent; cost of materials used
from $3,903,417 to $2,437,S76 or S7.5
per cent, and value of products from
$~5,6e8,404 to $3,271,120 or 42.6 per
cent.
The figures do not include thirty
three establishments which reported
products valued at below $4,000 for
the year.

MOTOR CAR SHOWN TO
Be ECONOMIC NECESSITY
BY LEO j. EASTMAN
President Packard Motor Car
COmDany of New York

The extraordinary IN
which the automobile has become a
vital factor in modern civilization
has been the subject for hundreds
Of speeches, articles and even long,
scientific treatises. But 1 have often
thought that the a of the
automobile-and romance 1t surely
isis epic in character, and de-
mands for adequate treatment net
only the comprehensive and an
~alytical' mind of the historian and
economist, but also the Imagination
and eloquence of the poet.
AS society is constituted today,
personal transportation is an indis-
pensible factor in mans daily cycle
Of activity. Primitive man could do
with pedal locomotion, all that he
required for sustenance and crude
comfort being literally within a
stones throw of his abode. But
modern man is obliged to travel
many miles daily. His business,
his home and his places of recrea-
ton are widely separated, and in
variably the value of these elements
to him is directly proportional to
his ean of transportation.
Let the street car employe go on
strike for a day, or the railroads
and interurban trolleys be put out of
commission by storm or accident,
or the motor car taken to the serv-
ice station and Immediately the
question of personal transportation
confronts is in its proper proper
lions. |
The motor car Is essentially and
primarily a mea Of personal
transportation. 1t furnishes time
and place utility. BY reason of its
ability to fit closer than any other
means of transportation the bust
ness, social and recreational needs
of it's owner and his family, it &C.
cupies a special and large place
among modern agencies for carry
ing people from place to place.
Then, too, the great part the
automobile has played and is still
playing in increasing the Efficiency
and scope of activity of business
and professional men. Every bust
ness, every profession, gains
through the use of the automobile.
Investigation by the National Auto
mobile Chamber of Commerce
shows the following, interesting
figures:
Bankers and manufacturers have
their efficiency increased 33 per cent
by use of the automobiles; contrac-
tors, 81 per cent; farmers, 68 per
cent; school supervisors, 70 PEI
cent; clergyman, 98 per cent sales
men, 100 per cent; doctors, '104 per
cent; real estate and insurance men,
113 per cent.
Testimony of car owners, OBJ

car. 81 per cent.
Mileage used for business pur-
poses, 60 per cent.
Per cent of all cars used more OF

Amount of total mileage used
where there Is no other adequate
communication, "a per cent.
Number of improving liv-
ing conditions through the s OF

cent.
The motor car as an economic
necessity has attained a. position OF
importance that places a great re-
sponsibility on the men who are
manufacturing and selling 1t today.
They are selling not a luxury, but
a vital need Of. society-personal
transportation, and 1t is toward the
constant improvement and refine
ment of that service that automo-
tive engineers the world ove are
constantly striving.

GAS CONSUMPTION IN u. S.
INCREASES THREE FOLD

NEW YORK, Oct. 2S.-Sales OF
manufactured gas in 1921 set a new
high record, a total of 326,000.000-
900 cubic feet being consumed, ac-
| cording to the annual survey of the
gas industry of the United States
just completed by the American Gas
Association.
This is an increase of 1000, 900. 900
| cubic feet over 1920 and 2~O,OOO;O00,-
| 900 cubic feet over 1919. An analy-
I sis of the gas consumption statistics
| discloses that the per capita increase
for the ten years period, 1901 to 1911
was 80 per cent. while for the period
from 1911 to 1921 it was so per cent.
showing that the American people
| during the last ten years consumed
nearly three times as much gas per
capita as they did during the pre-
ceding decade.
Increased use of gas for industrial
! and for domestic purposes
| other than illumination in homes Is
responsible for the rapid growth OF
the industry. The survey shows hat
21.62 per cent of the gas used in
the country last year was for indus
trial purposes, about 1900 different
uses being recorded.
The use of gas for lighting is grow
ing less every year. only 1880 per
cent being used for illumination last
year, while 56.71 per cent was USED
for cooking, heating water, heating
! rooms and other domestic purposes
and 3.17 per cent was consumed for
uses not classified.
va
o 291.OOO customers, which means
that approximately 46,70o.ooo per-
sons are served by the gas industry.
Gas is being used in 100000 cook
ing appliances, $4,000 water heat
ers, 1,26S,000 room heaters. the
gas companies serve their customers
thro,,gh SO 800 miles of mains. not
counting the thousands of miles o
smaller service pipes which lead
from the mains to the homes or rae
tories of consumers.
