Rosemary after helping her with the
preliminaries of dressing, had gone
home to don her own things. She
now appeared in all the splendor of
an Oriental queen--a queen who had
been turned loose in a Ninth avenue
! department store
| She fairly glittered with rhine
! stones and more valuable gems, while
her dress showed every color of the
chromatic scale. On her head was
an immense tiara, which sparkled
brightly in the light. Her beautiful
black eyes shone as brightly as her
jewelry and her checks were rosy with
excitement.
In contrast to her confident and
regal bearing was the tiny mouse
like figure of her husband, who Crept
in behind her in evening clothes and
high silk hat.
The silk hat gave Isaac no more
Importance. no more air of dignity,
however, than he was usually able to
muster. He took one look at Rose

exclaimed:

study Of economic and industrial
conditions
He first came to this country as

there, the recently completed two

There has been considerable dis
cussion as to whether or not the
capacity of the highways and
streets Of this country has reached
a point where it seriously impairs
the continued increasing sales and
use Of motor cars" he adds, land
| am convinced that a road satura-
ton point has not been reached and
that 1t is hardly possible that such
a condition will ever confront us.
THE American public will not
surrender the use of such a daily
practical utility as the motor ar
because of inadequate street or
highway capacity. One has but to
observe that all our large cities
and our small ones too. are demon
strating that they do not intend to
yield to highway congestion. Each
year their accomplishments show
progress along this line. They are
widening their main arteries. They
are cutting through new streets,
making short cuts, paving lesser
streets. building more highways and
wider ones at cost of millions OF
dollars. Some are already building
one paved street above another in
order to insure adequate transporta-
ton.
Country Keeps Pace

have built and many more are now
building wide thoroughfares replac-
ing the narrow country roads and
lanes with latest type hard roads.

sity. In its final analysis it is
purely matter of good, business.

ton to good roads.
"One observes also splendid
balance of distribution and use of
motor cars between cities and rural
communities. About SO per cent of
all motor vehicles are in use in
rural communities and towns of
lO,OOO population and under. while
% per cent of the population is
round in these districts. This would
indicate that street congestion or
highway capacity has had little or
no effect upon the sale of motor
cars.
Parking Problem Serious
i do not mean to minimize the
fact that every large city has a
parking problem, that streets are
often crowded and as a result. some
people prefer not to drive under
such conditions. This should be
warming to prepare now for the flu
ture requirements.
also wish to point out that
there has never been a public prob
lem OF this nature that the Ameri.
can public has not solved. It may
DC necessary to build large under.
ground parking stations in the heart
or the great cities or construct
double decked streets. However.
some method of solution will be
evolved.
ut may be that relief may not
come as soon as we desire. Some
times communities are slow to take
steps to alleviate congestion; fire.
quently plans are not made with
vision for the future. and because
steps are not taken in time, such
work often becomes costly. But
sooner or later the people demand
such steps and they are taken. Even
then the saving in time and the
general utility Of the motor car
more than offset the expense.
Prepare For Future
Necessity is the mother Of in.
vention. We have always believed
In that truth and always will. And
l know that the American public
viii never capitulate to a condition
which will deprive them of their
motor cars,
I do see, in the pinch of I'M
comfortable driving in congested
cities, far reaching warning to
speed up preparation and plans for
the future. The public has forced
large public utilities to anticipate
years of progress and road and
street conditions should receive no
less attention.

In the Stock Market

NEW YORK, Nov. 30.-There is
great deal of Ford talk in the
newspapers this morning but outside
of the sentimental effect of the re-
sumption of production I cannot
Gee its practical application as a
stock market factor, for it also con-
cocts increased competition. Money
is the controlling influence plus the
all prevailing optimism expressed in
nationwide desire to participate
in the ownership of industrial shares
and which makes for the growth and
prosperity of the nation. But it
must be remembered that the up
ward movement cannot go indef-
initely. No one can tell just what
moment something may occur to
force change in the money Situa-
ton or what sudden development
may appear elsewhere to bring about
reversal of market trend. In your
trading operations therefore.it would
be better policy not to over extend
your long lines.
