AUTO PRODUCTIONS
AND SALES HEAVY
Truck Reports Indicate Extra Good
Business So Far This
Year.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March 15.-PeopIe may
be clinging to their old clothes, but
they are buying automobiles. In the
first two months of this year the mills
of the auto gods turned out 100000
cars and trucks more than in the first
two months last year. They made
three times as many as they did in
January and February, 1922.
Are they making money out Of this
business? The high cost OF material,
the high wages paid, the credit system
on which cars are sold are said to be
devouring the profits. One answer to
this is found in the statement Of the
Mack Trucks, Inc, published this
week. This company showed a profit
Of $8,053,665 in 1928. This is nearly
twice the 1929 return. After paying
preferred dividends, the company has
s20.71 a snare in profits, compared
with $s.eS a share in tho preceding
year.
In this amazing production Of cars
the part played by the truck is inn
portant. February saw motor trucks
turned out at the rate of 1850 a day.
This is the greatest monthly output
since June last year when the peak
was reached The industry is at
capacity and is planning extensive
enlarsements.

Us the demands on the building re-

To sum up briefly the whole business
situation, IL may be said that while con-
ditions in general are good and basically
sound. some objection may be made to
the uneven character of activity There
is a little uncertainty about prices and
there Is a slight increase in the spread
OF prices, which is bad. This should
give way in the spring in an evening up
OF prices. On the whole. the situation
may be described as satisfactory.
