many instances they are winning

If after winning their strike, we

The State of Massachusetts, and the
region of New England are designated
as the most thrifty State and section
Of the country in the annual report of
the controller of the currency covering
the fiscal year ended June 80 last.
The calculations, on the basis Of saw
ings deposits, shows the commonwealth
with per capis} deposits of $4,000 as
against a grand average of Sl99.66 for
the total United States and possessions,
while the New England cection as a
whole boasts per capita Swings OF
S579.9O.
Total Eastern States has the next
highest sectional ranking, with per
capita savings of $403.96. The Pacific
States come next with S242.22 per cap
tia. followed by the Middle Western area
with S177.73. Total Western States
come next with $67.71 with the South
ern area last with $53.57 per capita.
The grand average Is greatly d1mln-
ished by the poor showing made by out
side possessions of the United States
which show a per capita savings OF but

OUTLOOK FOR AUTOMOBILE
INDUSTRY HELD ENCOURAGING
Trade Leaders Expect Good Year-Inven-
tories Have Been Reduced as New
Models Appear on Market

During the period Of depression we
have witnessed the long-anticipated
test of installment selling. The result
is gratifying, showing only a slight in
crease in reposs sSsionS and a far greater
percentage of payment than bankers
and other students of economics had
ever considered possible"
Pointing out that despite the world
wide business depression, sol 900 Ameri-
can-made motor vehicles were sold in
foreign markets during 1880. Robert c.
Graham. chairman of the Export Com
mittee, of the National Automobile
Chamber OF Commerce, said there ex-
lists a conviction within the automotive
industry that exports in 1891 will be
again on satisfactory basis"
Tax Bill Large.
"If the upward turn comes in 1891
as those qualified to know seem to think
1T will, automotive exports will be the
first to respond" he said.
Not only do individuals find the au-
tomobile indispensable, but nations as
well have become dependent for reve-
nue. upon the hundreds Of millions OF
dollars brought to them annually
through taxation and customs"
Mr.. Graham added that a careful
analysis showed that nearly $3.50, 900 ,00O
was the tax bill paid directly last year
by the automobile and its owners In
Asia, Africa, Europe, Oceanica and all
parts OF the Western Hemisphere south
of the Rio Grande.
This estimate" he said, includes
registration and license fees, import du-
ties, gasoline taxes and other direct
taxes. It does not take into account
the taxation of automobiles in the
United States and Canada, but 1t does
prove conclusively that the governments
OF the world cannot ignore or restrict
such source of revenue"
