HUDSON : ESSEX
SALES GAIN

New Business

AZ a result Of greatly reduced
prices. the sales activity OF Hudson
and Essex cars has been greatly
stimulated. both locally and all
over the United States. The autumn

I'm our opinion. the automobile

probably no standard motor cat

MANY WORKERS KILLED
IN INDUSTRIAL ACCIDENTS

OLYMPIA, Wash, Feb. 26.-Indus-
trial accidents in this state caused
the death of 1856 workers last year,
according to report issued by the
state department Of labor and indus
tries. Non-fatal accidents totaled
1870, making grand total Of 3d.
655 claims handled by the depart
ment.
The aggregate cost of these acct
dents was 1884, 064,26, of which sum
reserves to pay pensions of totally
disabled workmen and to widows and
orphans of workmen killed amounted
to $3.50, 945.94.
Funds to meet these claims were
contributed by the industries affected,
the concerns paying according to the
rate of hazard of the particular class
of industry to which the firms opera
tons belonged.

are made up from the figures shown
through the four sections, New York,
and San Francisco were among the
cities studied.
One cause for the rapid rise in the
Pacific Coast and Midwest is the
rapid growth of cities such as De-
troit, Los Angeles and Cleveland.
Rents mount faster in a rapidly
growing city than one Of gradual
growth.
Also in the East rents showed a
rising tendency prior to 1917, while
in some Southern and Pacific coast
cities they were at a low point in
that year. Thus the rise in the latter
cities started at a lower plane and
has gone faster.
While Government data shows pres
ent rent levels at the highest point
in their history, the advance in recent
months has not been so rapid as
heretofore.

Coast show at SO per cent above the
level of 1917 and rents in the Mid
West show 66 per cent above the lev
