NEW YORK, Sept. 20.-It is now
apparent that the production and
sales of automobiles in the United
States this year will be sufficiently
in excess of the normal demand to
result in a larger annual output
than in 1884, the Alexander Hamil-
ton Institute declared today in
study of the automotive situation.
On the basis of the three funda-
mental factors which determine the
normal output of automobiles,
namely, the currently estimated
1885 national income, the proper
ton available for automobiles and
the automobile price level, the nor
NAL demand this year warrants an
output of 2,560,000 cars, or an out
put of 7 per cent less than the num-
Der produced last year.

Curtailment ForeSeen

"Since preliminary figures indi-
cate that the output in August was
in the neighborhood of 100000 cars,
it is apparent that nearly all the
cars which will be produced during
the last four months of the year will
enlarge the 1929 excess. Therefore,
since a much greater excess than in
1929 is not probable, it follows that
rather pronounced curtailment of
production will feature the automo-
bile situation during the remainder
of 1885.
cit is apparent, however, that the
production of automobiles this year
will be sufficiently in excess of the
normal demand to have a depreSs-
ing effect on the market in 1886.
While it is possible that a larger
national income next year and q
lower general prive level will raise
the normal demand for automobiles,
the prospect is that such an increase
will not be sufficient to offset the
effect of this years over-expansion
with a consequent drop in auto
mobile production below the normal
demand in 1885,"

established IN the preceding 1Ceek.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1935-09-20
In Excess of Normal

"Since this figure, however, is less
than the output during the first
seven months and since automobile
factories have not been entirely
closed down since the end of July
and apparently will not be closed
down during the remainder of the
year." the study continued, "it fol-
lows that production this year will
be considerably in excess of the
normal demand.
Despite the prospect of excessive
activity in the automobile industry
for the year as a whole, the outlook
is that operations, which have been
on the decline since April, will be
considerably curtailed during the
remainder of 1885. While it is prob
able that the excess this year will
be greater than in 1929, it is ques-
tionable whether the excess will be
much greater in view of the fact
that 1929 was year when over
expansion was exceptionally large.
IF the over-eXpansion of 1929 is
not exceeded by a wide margir~
production is certain to be relatively
low during the remaining months of
this year. This is indicated by the
fact that if production in 1885 ex-
ceeded the normal demand by the
same percentage as in 1929, the total
output this year would amount to
only 2,899,000 cars, or only 100000
more cars than we manufactured
in the first seven months.

PERSONALITIES
By Nellie DOdsOn

Auntie did something Saturday
night down in Iowa City that she
never has done before. What was
it? Well, I spent the evening at
the dance sitting down talking.
Danced only one dance, s'help me.
I spent the rest of the time talking
to handsome Homer Harris, Iowa's
sophomore end from Seattle, Wash
ington. He's very quiet and reti-
cent, and at first I had to do all
of the talking, but pretty soon
Homer was holding up his end of
the conversation, and everything
was hunky-dorey. He's an awfully
nice person, and 10000 different.
Thelma Sayles was taken out for
dinner, luncheon and breakfast
while down there. She had just a
grand time and hated to come
home. On Friday night down at
the Alpha house, one of the frater-
nifty boys fell head over heels in
huff with Thelma and he was hang
ing around her with that unhappy
look about him.
At the party which was given
at country club outside of Iowa
City on Saturday night, the gals all
looked too gorgeous. One out-of-
town femme fell out in an all-me-
tallic tunic affair which swept the
floor in back. 1t was positively en-
chanting. There was a black for
NAL there which was worn with a
cape of sparkling sequins. And a
sky-blue transparent velvet, cut on
very tailored lines, with rhinestone
straps. Oh, girls, your eyes would
have popped out just to see some
of those outfits!
Thank goodness, we Minnesota
gels held up our end OF the rep
resentation very successfully. We
were trying to eat dinner at the
Alpha house Friday night, but we
couldn't do so well, because Of nu-
merous Iowa lads who kept COM
ing in and staring and then going
to tell other lads. Every time we
would take up a fork or a spoon
or a knife, at least a half dozen
Young men would rush to our aid
and ask if we needed any help,
if we were comfortable, if we had
everything we wanted to eat. The
darlings.
By game time Saturday we were
famous. My, my, my.
Homer Harris said that Iowa
Minneapolis spokesman. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1935-11-15

lost the game because he kept the
whole team awake the night before
while he talked and talked and
talked. The Iowa boys had been
taken out of town and all herded
into one room for the night. Homer
was bunking with Dick BowIin, the
Iowa backfeld star. Homer said
that Bowlin kept talking about the
girl he was in love with until HON
darn near went nuts. Bowlin
wouldn't let him get any sleep, and
so he determined that no one else
on the team would get any sleep.
And so Homer just talked and
talked until they wanted to throw
him out.
Alice Shorts uncle owns the larg-
est shoe shining parlor in Iowa
City, and he employs a whole gang
of the cullud college lads in his
place, and so Alice was a big-shot
just as soon as she landed in town.
She also had grand time and was
reluctant to leave. Dearie me, did
ANYONE want to go home?
Ruth Baltimore and Fannie But
Ter both had nice-looking boy
friends up from st. Louis, and so
they kept pul-enty busy too during
the weekend. We just had time
to say hello and g'bye to each other
when we breezed into our quarters
to change clothes. We stayed at
the former Delta house, and all
kinds of out-of-town girls were
there because it was a big, big
place. You never saw so many
ladies running around in scanties
and panties and whatnot. The
night of the party the living room
downstairs was just full to over
flowing with young men waiting
for the gals to come down. Each
femme would saunter down the
steps, stand on the landing in full
view of the living room, and let
the assembled males look her over
very carefully. Each one to come
down would look better than the
last one. Boyoboyoboy what fun!
And did the boys eyes pop out?
Whew!
