when they are in an automo-

So far, they don't sound at

They own 10 cars.
What's more, the head Of the

Economic Service in an inter.

new convertible this fall. Since
he does not intend to trade in,
this will raise his ownership to
II cars-ranging from a 1908
Packard and a 1911 Overland
to a shining new 1864.
The time never will come
when this auto-mad family is
typical in our country but we're

1864 a 7 million-plus car sales
year for the third year in a row
and this in turn will be a vital
factor in propping our entire
economy. The auto industry
alone provides, directly or indi-
rectly, one-seventh of the jobs
in our country, gobbles up bill
lions of dollars of basic materi-
ais and services. This one in
dustry has been crucial in
keeping the economic advance
which began in early 1861 still
alive in late 1868.
Obviously propellin g the
multiple car ownership trenC
are the upsurge in personal In
comes. the availability of con-
sumer loans, the relative stabil-
lty of automobile prices. Per-
sonal incomes are running at
an annual rate of over $466
billion. SCI billion above a year
ago. Our buying power has been
supported by an ample supply
of instalment credit and the
auto in dustry has held the
price line.
Obviously, other forces are
the suburban expansion a n d
the slump in the use of public
transportation. The share of
our transportation dollar going
to public transportation has
dwindled from 20 per cent to 8
per cent in the postwar Pc
riod-even in the face of an
nual increases in airline travel.
Not so obvious factors are
the emergence of the suburban
housewife and the young driver
as additional automobile buyers
who consider a second or third
car not Just a desirable possess
sion but a necessity.
In suburban areas across the
country, housewives are de-
handing a car of their own to
get to the shopping center or
bank, to attend m ceilings or
chauffeur the kids. AS for the
young driver, the 1924 age cat
egory is increasing by about 6
per cent a year now against 8
per cent at the start of this de-
cade. One-third of plans to buy
used cars today involve young
sters and by their support of
the used car market, they are
squirting new car sales.
The Z million-a-year car
market is about to becom e
commonplace in the Un it e d
States and so is the two-car
family. AS long as we maintain
a generally prosperous econo-
my, our romance with the au-
tomobile will continue to blaze.

CONCLUSION
The facts presented in this
survey speak for themselves.
The objective observer will in
deed conclude from the data
that Columbus County's need
for facilities of higher learn
ing is as great as any area of
the State. 1t is evident from
the information contained in
this report that the County is
not only receptive but eager
for a Comprehensive Commun-
ity College. 1t is not only will
ing to lend wholehearted and
enthusiastic support to the
Community College, it is able
to support such an institution,
as the facts indicate.
Establishment of a Compre-
hensive Community College in
Columbus County will contri-
butte significantly to raising
the educational, economic and
cultural levels of the citizens
of Southeastern North Caro-
lima. Therefore, it will contri-
butte toward raising these lev
els statewide.
1t is well recognized that
whatever benefits one region
of the State, benefits the en-
tire State. Southeastern North
Carolina along with principal =
ly other eastern and western
sections prevents per capita
income in North Carolina from
rising. Establishment of a
Community College in Colum-
bus County will contribute to-
ward the increase per capita
income of North Carolina.
Therefore, citizens from not
only this area will benefit. The
College of Columbus will a.
dorm not just Columbus Coun-
ty but will be large star in
the crown of North Carolina.
Generations unborn will be
afforded opportunities for a
fuller life because of the estab-
lishment of a Community Col
lege in Columbus County.
Those who have a part in its
achievement will earn for
themselves a place of eternal
