GROWTH OF MOTOR
INDUSTRY CITED
Car Registrations in U. S.
PLACID at One to 4.6 of
Population.

Discussing the growth Of motor car
population and the concurrent traffic
difficulties arising therefrom before the
Society of Automotive Engineers re-
Gently, Col. Sydney D.. Walden, presi-
dent of the Detroit Transit Commission,
said:
THE United States has one motor
car registration to each 4.6 persons. A
year ago California had one registration
to each 2.87 persons, while five other
States had one registration to over three,
but less than four, persons. It is esti-
mated by students Of the subject that
the country as whole will reach one
registration to each three persons, and
then hold that ratio.
Census Figures 40 Years Ago.
During the 40 years prior to 1920
approximately SIS millions were added
to the census figures Of the United
States. The smallest increase per de-
cade during that period was liz mil
lions, and the largest 16 millions. If we
assume that during the next six decades
we add is millions per decade, then we
will have population of 21l millions so
years from now. If the ratio of regis
tration to population holds at one to
three, there will be in this country II
million motor vehicles, where we have
approximately 26 millions today. With
an average life of seven years, that
would mean an annual replacement
requirement Of more than ten million
motor vehicles per year, giving employ
ment to more than eight million wage
earners. This fact Is worthy Of note by
the various committees of President
Hoover's conference to maintain a con-
tinuing national prosperity.
If this estimated increase is reg
istrations were spread uniformly over
the entire country, it would mean a
general increase in traffic of 80 times
that at present; but, unfortunately, the
tendency is Enthusiastically toward the
increase being concentrated in urban
centers.
Shifting Of Population Noted.
1.-THE shift Of population from rural
to urban has been taking place very
uniformly at the rate of somewhat more
than S per cent per decade. 1t would
only need TO continue three more de-
cades before the relationship that exist
ed in 1890 when the rural population
was more than 10 per cent, would be
reversed and there would be an urban
population of 70 per cent. In other
words, by 1865 our urban population
should have reached 100 millions, with
| little or no substantial increase in. the
| present rural population.
do we realize the vital significance
of this population shift? 1t means that
the greatest need for increasing traffic
| facilities already has shifted from rural
! to urban areas, with this shift of popu-
lation. and that increase in population
registrations and traffic. as well as the
great bulk of the revenues for increaS-
| ing the capacity of trunk-line highways
and thoroughfare systems, will be found

Mount Of the Holy Cross is now a
national monument. 1t may be reached
at present only by horseback from Red
Cliff or Eagle. However, plans have
been made by the United States Forest
Service for development of a reserved
area on top of Shrine Pass, from which
the most accessible view of the 1000

every consideration for the family

Electrical Throughout
From the basement to the

many helpful suggestions on home

ton and at the same time to main
tain room temperature actually
lower than that Of the rest Of the
house. This apparent phenomena
is simply accomplished by the use
Of the full automatic electric
range which is thoroughly insu-
lated, the electric exhaust fan and
the other devices, such as the
mixer and beater, which elimi-
nate all physical labor in the
kitchen. The electric range, with
its human qualities, Of turning
heat on and off, when and where
it Is wanted, has attracted more
attention than any Of the hundred
devices on display and in opera
ton in the home.
