1884 Figures Indicative.
With SO many pending uncertain
ties of the broadeSt economic signifi-
canoe to consider. any attempt to
foretell the outcome of the motor in
dustry's 1885 campaign would be
prophecy, at best. However, the facts
and figures of 1884 operations may
afford some idea of what may be ex-
pected during the current year.
If there is any single fact more
gratifying and more encouraging than
all others to leaders of the motor in
dustry, it is that automotive produc-
ton and sales records for 1884 reveal
unmistakable recovery progress.
Despite the fact that labor difficult
ties and other factors prevented some
companies from getting their new
models into production as early as had
been expected at the beginning of the
year, the increased demand for new
cars and trucks enabled the industry
to finish the IL months with q total
output now estimated at 1886, 900
units. This represented a wholesale
value of $1.453 100000. 1t not only
was a IS per cent increase over the
preceding year, but was, roughly, dou-
BILE the number Of vehicles produced
by the industry in 1882.
Careful check of motor vehicle reg
istration figures of the various States
indicates strongly that the number of
cars junked or otherwise permanently
removed from service during the year
exceeded the number which were alb
sorbed by the domestic market. AT
the same time, 1t has been established
that there were nearly million more
vehicles in operation in 1884 than
there we're the year before. This

They have been driving their cars for
a longer period in the depression years
than they normally did. This was for
several reasons. Perhaps one reason Is
that many people did not want to
make display Of their better fortune by
driving new expensive cars. Some
have thought 1t fashionable to appear
poor. These reasons are passing
away rapidly.
