These figures are for 1882 and

ment.
Points Out Lesson
AS DR.. McClintock points out
these figures reveal some unusual
relationships, Boston, with the ex-
ception of Washington. has a
higher annual per capita spend
able income, yet Boston has seven
persons for each passenger auto
mobile, as compared with Wash
ington's record of three passengers
for each automobile.
1t is not my wish that you
should take the above considera-
tions as entirely conclusive, but
I do think them significant. Wash
ington and Los Angeles, with a
3-to-1 population to ownership
ratio, show what might be antici-
pated in typical cities with fairly
high spendable income per capita.
I am convinced that if the owner
ship of automobiles were made
more safe and convenient the
urban market would show a very
great untouched reservoir for auto
mobile buying.
Bureau Has a Plan
The answer to this problem is
better traffic control. Traffic con-
troll in itself, however, has very
definite limitations. The Erskine
Bureau as adviser to the city of
Chicago has a plan that will solve
traffic congestion and hazards,
and it's adoption would completely
revolutionize the use of motor
vehicles in urban areas.
With the low cost for new and

One of the most vital problems
confronting the leaders OF the
automotive industry is the man
ner in which our own products
are hindering our efforts to sell
more cars.
I refer to the intensely con-
gested traffic conditions in. our
large cities. It has long been my
ntention that the Socalled
saturation point of automobile
ownership in any large city is con-
trolled by physics, rather than
by economics. Sales resistance
comes from inability to use auto
mobiles effectively rather than
from inability to buy them This
opinion is also shared by DR..
Miller Russell McClintock, Of the
Albert Russell Erskine Bureau for
Street Traffic Research at Har-
ward University.
Washington ''Best Spender"
Other conditions being equal,
one would expect general rela-
tionShip between per capita an
nual Spendable income in cities
and of automobiles in proportion
to population. That is, one would
expect this relationship if capacity
to buy were the only or principal
controlling factor. Here I would
like to show some figures given
me by DR.. McClintock:
