Auto Trade Looks Up
staIin.
lCleveland Plain DealerD

As the auto industry hts the l94o curtain us leaders look back the past twelve month anc pronounce it pretty good year. Fer the auto trade the statistical year ends September 3O Most or the new models are introduced somewhere near that oate
 This time September 30 finished an auto year which saw production and factory sale in the United States and Canada of 3587000 and trucks. This is gain of 33 percent over 1938 which helps to explain why the motor trade is optimistic as New Yorks Ma tona Automobile Show starts the official presenta- ton of the industrys offerings.
 As compared with 1887 when more than 5,O0oooo vehicles were produced the results for the year Just closed may not seem very impressive. But when reasonably good year like 1889 follows poor one Ike 1888 and particularly when the year ends With an up turn the men motors have good reason to be cheer full Such is the story of the 1889 model year. | The dollar figures of the auto trade are tarly as trononca Thus the wholesale value of the past years production was better than S25OO00oo00 The s1 2500O0O0O Average employment rose to 38O0O0 from 337oOO during the preceding year, and average weekly pay rolls from about s9,0o0ooo to almost $12000OO0.
 The stream of cars which came off the assembly lines in 1889 has pushed total auto registration in the United States to almost 30000000. Which is no won der is hard find place to park motor spokes- man reports that many more families have autos than possess bathtubs This may not be so shocking as it sounds when one remembers that the bathtub has not yet wholly conquered rural America. At least it gives the plumbers something to think about.
 It is an axiom of American commercial life that when the business is looking up all business IS getting better Where much of our industry is tied to the automotive industry, the bright prospects of the motor trade vitally important.

NEW YORk-Now that Harry
Gumbert is an active member Of
the Sam Houston Whittlers' club,
Bill Terry is seriously thinking of
putting metal facings around the
Giants bench.
The idea of forming whittlers'
club was Matched last winter in
Houston, in honor of the Texas
pioneer who was noted for his
prowess with a knife. AS an Off
season resident of the Texas me-
tropolis, Gumbert was one of the
first asked to join.
Gumbert left a trail of chips all
over the south. A crisis has risen
out of the fact that the New York
pitcher does not stick 10 the cedar
wood which is the official ma
terial. He considers any chair
leg fair prey.
Gumbert comes from a long line
of whittlers. His father was a
mschinist. with whiting as a
hobby. Harry himself was IA
miliar with all kinds of tools, hav-
ing been a helper on construction
jobs before he entered baseball.
Meanwhile, wherever Gumbert
