With Americas automobiles
wearing out at an estimated rate of
100000 to 100000 every month,
Washington and the nations mo-
torists may soon face the problem
of a serious car transportation
shortage. In 1941 we had an es-
timated 291s million cars in use.
Today the figure is probably down
to near the "a million level. We
are rapidly approaching the mini
mum number necessary for war
workers and farmers, and reliable
information indicates it is the
cars of these two groups which are
oldest-.in average age. 49,. ......
What will be the solution? Will
the auto industry be directed to
again manufacture cars needed on
the home front? Will "non-essen-
tiar' motorists have to give up
their cars to war workers and far
mers? Or can we keep our present
cars in the running for a prolonged
period by good care and proper
maintenance?

tive and the one man upon whom
we all count to do it is THAT Fell
