This means that more than the
annual production OF twenty years
ago is now built in the morning
of each working day, and an equal
quantity IN the afternoon. Even
this rate of production is not al
ways sufficient to supply the field
demand during the high volume
months.
More than 10000 persons are
now employed on Chevorlet's pay
roll-the company requires 10000
tons of material each working day
and it would require so COM
plete freight trains, of so cars
each, to handle inbound and out
bound shipments necessary for
one days production.
"There are now also 10000
dealers, with their $4,000 EN-
ployees, engaged in the distribu-
ton Of this one line of cars.
1.-The increase in the dircct.
employment that has been ac-
complished was made possible
only through offering improvde
product at lower prices-prices
so low that many people desired
to buy and could afford to pay.
Lower prices were attained
by cost reductions, and cost re-
auctions, were principally due Ia
improved manufacturing methods
and the use Of so-called labor
saving machinery. This demon
strates the practical operation of
the cycle-reduction Of cost and
price, increase in volume and en-
ployment-and without machin-
cry this result could not have
been attained"
With the increased use of me-
chinery, and the consequent de
crease of manufacturing costs.
Mr.. Coyle explained, the total la
Dor requirement is increased
through higher volume.
"The fact that the hourly wage
rates of the automOtive industry
are the highest of any industry
in the world today shows the eff
feet Of this practice over a period
Of time" declared Mr.. Coyle.
He credited the use Of mach'n-
cry, which has so deeply influen-
ced the four factors of cost and
price, volume and employment.

MORE INVENTIONS NEEDED
EXECUTIVE DECLARES

New York. - More inventions,
not fewer, are needed to gear the
wheels Of mass production to
greater speed and provide addi-
tional production that will bring
unemployment to a Minimum, M.
z. CoyIe, president and general
manager of the Chevrolet Motor
Company, told members of the
Advertising Club Of New York at
it's annual automobile meeting
here recently.
Mr.. Coyle, who was introduced
to the advertising men and auto
motive leaders by Henry T.
Ewald, president of the Campbell
Ewald Company, urged a greater
use of machinery to lead mass
production industry to ever great
err heights in the future.
eve need more, not less, new
Inventions" Mr.. Coyle declared.
1--WE need more goods at a lower
price, within a range where more
of our people can be induced to
buy, and car afford to pay-not
less goods at higher prices. Our
unemployment problem cannot
possibly be solved by any other
method"
Mr.. Coyle drew a picture Of the
economic laws that determine the
effect of production costs on sell
ing price, of selling price on vol
nme, and of volume on employ
ment figures, citing the history of
Chevrolet as an example Of how
mass production works.
Twenty years ago Chevrolet
was producing an open touring
car at a price of nearly $4,000
list" MI. Coyle said. at pro-
duced approximately 5000 units
II year, employed a few hundred
men, and its purchases and freight
Tonnage were not particularly i'm
p~ortant either to the sources OF
supply or to the transportation
companies. Only a small number
of dealers and statesmen were re-
quired to distribute it's cars.
To-day Chevrolet is offering an
infinitely better product at prices
below 800 for even the most ex-
pensive model. The annual pro
duction for 1886 will exceed one
and One-quarter million units,
with many daily records above
6.4OO cars.
