WASHINGTON, Feb. 29 The American Automobile Association, with the cooperation of the Office of Defense Transportation, has just completed a survey of the auto mobile and gasoline situation at the end of the second year of war. Some of the facts are a little stag gering
 Although all motorists are mak- Ing em do and wearing em out, more than 100000 cars have gone into the junk pile and another million have gone into storage Where we had 28,000,000 cars in the hands of private owners ttrucks, buses, etc, aren't included, but the decline there has been proportion ate), we now have around 24,500,- GOO.
 Charles L. Dearing, director of ODT's division of review and spec ial studies thinks however, that private owners, through car pools, mileage budgeting and careful up- keep, have done a grand job of maintaining a "personalized trans portation system that has contri- buted much to the war effort.
 But at what cost. In the western gasoline-restrict- ed states, the per mile. cost of car operation has risen from approxi- mately cents mile to 12 cents That's just the average. The cost to IA. card holders has risen to the amazing sum of 34 cents a mile.
 In the central states. the cost has risen from only cents to 8 cents.
 In the eastern states, the aver age annual mileage of motorists was just under 10000 miles a year; now the average has dropped to $500 miles. In the central states, the av- ldSc ID O,iOU llOW dilQ III tllt dCl- fife coast area 6,200.
 The fact that there are certain fixed costs on any automobile depreciation, insurance, upke ep, etc.-explains why the reduced driv- ing has upped the per mile cost. The rest is explained in increases in the cost of gasoline, oil, servicing and repair.
 The thing about this breakdown is that in most cities holders of restricted "A" cards can save con- siderable money by using. public transportation and even a small amount by using taxis.
 Many persons have already dis covered this-hence the great bur- den on public transportation and the taxi companies. When the war costs of driving really begin to sink
