AUTO INDUSTRY DEVELOPMENT
SURPASSES MOST OPTIMISTIC
EXPECTATIONS, BABSON SAYS

BABSON PARK, Mass, Aug. s.
The Babson institute has been max
ing a study of the automobile in
dustry and Mr. Babson has today
released a digest of the conclusions
reached. The official statement is
in part as follows:
'The most salient fact evident
in any present study of the automO-
bile industry is that its development
has defied all prophets and has ex-
ceeded the most optimistic hopes. In
the early years Of the industry the
auto was believed to be only fad
to be owned by the wealthy. Twen-
ty-five years ago automobiles We're
looked upon as we consider airplanes
today. When it finally was discov
cred that the automobile had prac
teal value, then bankers began to
talk about the saturatiOn point. >
Every year the bankers stated that
the following year automobiles
would reach their SaturatiOn point
and the industry would begin to de-
cline. OF course no trees grow to
the skies and some time the auto.
mobile industry may reach its max
imum development, but all the pess-
imists have been disappointed up
to the present time. The following
annual figures on the production
and registration of ears show the
situation for the past ten years.

being spent on advertising and sell
ing, there are fewer changes in
models, consultations are taking
place, and various other factors are
developing which are unpleasant to
many people. On the other hand
these changes are mostly for the
benefit of the consumers and should
ultimately be good for the indus
try. This all signifies that the bus
mess is becoming stabilized. What
was once Il luxury, has become Il
necessity; and what was once q fad,
is becoming a staple. This means
that there are smaller profits, but
that the business is on much
sounder basis. The fact has also
been proven that 'once an auto, al
ways an auto which insures re-
peats and replacement orders. The
new generation of young people is
being brought up with the idea that
an automobile is as necessary as Il
sewing machine or a bathroom.
Great Possibilities
"COnsider the fact that two mil
lion people are being born every
wear in the United States, and the
average life of a car is not over
seven years, it will be seen that the
replacement automobile business has
great possibilities. If is said that
certain companies are almost able
to pay their dividends merely from
the sale of parts and other access
is here. to stay and is gradually get
ting on Il sound basis. OF course,
there will be many more consolida-
tions. There is no sense in having
SO many different makes of ears.
Gradually these will be brought to-
gether and there will be fewer com
panies, resulting i'll reduced selling
and advertising costs, which are
now Il great factor. 1t, however,
should be remembered that even to-
day the automobile is defylng the
trend of other products. Where III
he case of most manufactured ar
ticles the purchaser is getting less
today for a dollar than he did ten
years ago, the reverse is true III the
case of the automobile. Not only
is the automobile improved every
year, but prices are declining not
withstanding the reduced purchas-
ing power of the dollar.
Auto Stock Outlook
"The above comments apply to
the industry and not to the stock
market. Our Investigations are in

NEW FORD BODY
FOR TRUCKS IS
MEETING NEEDS

While the use of commercial cars
continues to grow and while users
are more and more turning TO the
lighter units as the most, economical
"a review Of recent advances in this
! division of motor Transportation re-
Iveals an interesting and significant
development. This is the entrance
iof Ford as Il commercial car body
/ builder.
Everyone is familiar with Ford in
the passenger car fields, where he
/ has brought low cost transportation
without parallel anywhere. The
gradual Introduction of Ford built
commercial ears indicates that users
in this particular field are to bene-
! fit now to greater extent than
ever before.
! For wears the Ford ton-trnck chas
sis has been the most popular of the
lighter truck units and at present
approximately - per cent of the
one-ton trucks in use in the United
States are Fords. Until little more
than year ago, however, purchas-
ers of the Ford truck chassis had to
secure bodies from outside manufac-
turcfs.
The first appearance of Ford IN
thc commercial car body field came
with the introduction Of an all-steel
express type body with open cab,
also of steel construction. The cab
and BODY were built with Il view of
giving TO the user the greatest. pos
sible value in construction and ma
itorials and at the same time unit
that was light and durable, designed
to meet variety OF requirements
With this BODY on the market II
wasn't long until the Ford Motor
Company provided screen sides ana
canopy ton. thereby extending the
trucks utility to delivery and haul.
ing services requiring protectioh o,
merchandise from the elements ana
from theft, providing at the same
time ample loading space.
This latter body also IS or par.
t;culor interest to the farmer and
truck gardener, for it is adaptable
TO every agricultural hauling re-
ouiremcnt as it may be used with
either grain or cattle sides. Win
stakes it provides unusual space for
earting garden produce.
A closed cab, adaptable for use
j with anv of these bodies, also IS
nroyided and has grown greatly IN
popularity since its Introduction. II

onircmcnts where quick delivery IS
