Postmaster General Walter Brown hasn't gone high hat as a regular thing but when he does, as above, he does not like to crush the topper i'm the automobile. And that is the reason the pOst-office de- partment bought a second expen- sivc limousine in 1882, as explain ed at the House hearing on the post office supply bill. The first limousine had such a low top that the Postmaster General either had too hold his hat or crush it, he said.

24,182,383CARS
. IN OPERATION

NEW YORK, Dec. 28.-That
the automobile industry has a
firm basis for recovery is indi-
Gated in a report issued today by
James Dalton, editor of Motor.
Figures for 1882 show there is
still in operation one car for every
six of our population, and that
the American people regard their
cars as an essential part of their
lives.
Motor discloSeS there are
still 2O,929, 9,091 passenger cars in
the United States. Counting the
3.253 ,292 trucks in operation, the
total is 24,182,383 vehicles. Both
cars and trucks decreased 6.1 per
cent from 1881, but since this
year marks the elimination of the
business recession, the decline
was less than might have been eX-
pected.
A drop of only 2.192,498 car
licenses from the 1929 peak is an
Unexpectedly small shrinkage and
provides substantial evidence of
the Importance of individual
transportation.
The industrial East-New York,
New Jersey, Connecticut, MaSsa-
chuSetts and Rhode ISland-and
the West Coast held up the best.
Car licenses in agricultural sec
tions had the worst decline in
three years.

Here and There
In the Realm Of
Broadcastins
BY RONALD THORNE

While Col. Stanley Bigelow is
enjoying a bit Of well-earned rest,
being one of those persons SO
fortunate as to have a mid-winter
holiday, I am certain that he
will not go in so whole -heartedly
for rest and quiet as to miss the
return to the air tonight of Col.
Lemuel Q. Stoopnagle and his
underprivileged associate, Budd.
The Stoopnagle-Budd combina-
ton will have a full half hour of
ether waves. tonight, beginning at
$50 p. m. on WJSV. But here's
the catch, boys and girls of radio
land. Thereafter their time on
the air will be on Thursdays, not
Wednesdays; so make your ne
gagements accordingly.
Co. Stoopnagle has appeared in
the news reels of late, giving out
Christmas presents a la Santa
Claus to a group Of youngsters
in Miami. AS usual, Budd is left
out in the cold. That lad never
seems to get anywhere so long as
the colonel is on the job. Even
when Stoopnagle lets Budd be a
corporation president, Lemuel @.
clinches the job of chairman of
the board.
The boys will be surrounded by
quite an elaborate program, fea-
turing an orchestra, a soprano
and all the rest of the radio lures.
Let's hope Mr.. Bopp and some
of the never-men return--and
above all, priceless old Herman.
They must not be neglected.

LOSSES OFFSET
by ADVANCES
ON CURB.
BY THEODORE KosLoW

NEW YORK, Dec. % G.N.SO
The curb market was two-Sided
} affair through most Of the ses-
sion today with scattered rallying
tendencies IN a handful of the
leaders generally offset by con
tinued liquidation in a long list
OF issues along the line.
BearishneSs PrepOnderant
:. The preponderant bearishness
IN speculative circles made it a
relatively easy matter for con-
structive leaders to get behind a
few Of the overSold issues and in
tluence some semblance of a rally
: The inability Of the recovery to
obtain greater breadth was diSap-
3. pointing, however, and led to ad-
Nditional offerings on the bulgeS.
, In the utility group, American
Gas and Electric was especially
strong, with a net gain of a point
at 29A. Electric Bond and Share
was 3s higher at 174.
The Cities Service issues we're
again under the pressure, the
common dropping back "a to 214,
and the per cent debentures
Of so receding to 32A for q
loss Of As.
Tax-Selling Depressing
Tax-Selling was a factor making
for much of the weakness in the
specially group. Among the
hardest hit issues were Mead
johnson which broke 5H points
to 441a and Singer Manufactur-
ting which was off IA points
ct 95.
Investment trusts were gener.
ally lower.
= American Power & Light IS
was weak issue in the bond
division, showing a loss of 1h
points at 81.
