AUTO INDUSTRY IS
ON SOUND FOOTING
Economist Finds It Stronger
Than Ever

Washington, Nov. Is P)-Not-
withstanding the fact that com
petition is keener in the United
States than ever before. the motor
industry is probably on the sound
est basis in its history and in the
best position TO compete for the
markets Of the world" II. o. Smith,
chief of the automotive division of
the department of commerce. says.
There is every evidence that the
use and influence of the automobile
throughout the world will continue
to expand in 1929" Mr.. Smith
said" and that the 'saturation point
mirage, which has been worrying
some forccasters. will continue to
vanish.
"Few if any major industries
have gone as far in eliminating
wastes. useless expenditures, and
in bringing the selling price of the
article nearer the cost of the ma
terial. Fifteen years ago the most
optimistic forecasters placed the
point of saturation at about five
million cars. We now have more
service and for the past several
years the annual increase has been
greater than the total number of
cars in use ten years ago, and yet
the so-callcd saturation point seeus
more and more remote and less
evident,
while We can reasonably en-
pect Il steady and gradual increase
in the number of cars in use in the
United States it would appear that
the per cent of increase in foreign
countries will be even greater from
now on than in the United States
1.-The markets abroad are en-
panding enormously in spite Of the
handicaps in so many localities rep
resented by import duty. taxes and
annual payments required before
cars are permitted 10 operate.
''In the United States. we arrived
at the point some time ago when
the cycle of the use of cars was
completed and the new cars must
be provided to take the place of
those which drop out. Up to 10
years ago The annual renewal re-
Huirements were slight. but since
that time they have increased enor-
mouSly each year. which automatic
ally develops a demand or like
number of cars without increasing
the registration or the number of
cars in use.
1.-THE cars required 10 replace
the drop outs in 1929 will account
for between 40 and so per cent Of
the total production and it is prob
able that VIC will soon require in
this country alone at least $500. 900
cars to replace the automobiles
which go out of commission during
the year. and by 1885 the world
annual requirements to replace cars
WHICH drop out should exceed
$500, 900.
with the extension and develop
mcnt Of roads in all parts of the
world. the opportunities for Amcri-
can automobile manufacturers to
export part of their production in
1929 will almost be doubled. There
are very bright prospects for the
motor industry ahead with a great
domestic and foreign market open
to sound industry" Smith says.

words

MAKE NEW FRIENDS

The boys back on the job today. In this case
the boys" referred to the members of Congress.
They have been able to get their second wind during
the the holidays and it is earnestly hoped
that they will buckle down to work There is plenty
of it before them
One of the biggest pieces of legislation which Con-
gress faces at this time is the Swing Johnson bill
The merit of the bill is recognized by leaders in both
houses but it will undoubtedly take considerable wire
pulling to get it up for action.
Hearings the bill will start before committees
in few days and Imperial Valley can depend upon
its representatives to do everything under the sun to
resentatives.
In the meantime we in the valley can do much good
by resuming the etter-writing campaign which Phil
Swing said last summer did untold good when the bill
before the last Congress. He declared "ham-
merng campaign is necessary and the harder we ham
mer and the more hammer, the more chance the
bill has to succeed.
The Swing-J ohnson bill needs every friend it can
get and in the valley have any of making
new friends for it, should not fail to use them.

Loan Association
Assets Exempt

Assets of the Pacific Coast Build
ingLoan Association of Los Ange'
les are exempt from federal income
tax, the commissioner of internal
revenue has recently ruled and
"the association will not be re.
quired to file returns for the year
ended in 1926, the first year of op-
Grafton, or subsequent years SO long
as there isTno change in he<organ-
ization, its purpose and method of
doing business. This announce
ment was made by A. A. Anderson,
secretary of the association, and
made public in Ell Centre by c. H.
Knights, the local representative.
"The fact that the commissioner
of internal revenue, after a thor
ough investigation, has ruled that
Pacific Coast is exempt from in
come tax" Anderson said, SIS
further proof of the cooperative ma
ture of the association and the an
nouncement should be greeted with
enthusiasm by both the investing
and borrowing members, particular
ly the latter. The borrowing men,
bers of this association are particu-
larly fortunate in that no part of
the interest paid by them has been
used to pay federal tax.
"People of moderate means who
are making an effort to own their
own homes and who find the
monthly amortized loan plan an
easy and profitable means of ac-
complishing this end, constitute the
bulk of the borrowers from this as
sociation,' Anderson said.
