Fully 10,000 trucks are expected to be involved in milk shipments when the movement becomes full-fledged Already trucks are bringing into Cin- einnati 97 per cent of its daily milk supply; into Kansas, City 40 per cent of its supply; into Atlanta, 90 per cent of its supply, and into Indian- polis, 80 per cent of its supply. With the possible exception of New York, Chicago and Philadelphia, producing areas are located near enough to dis- tribution points so that trucks can be used even more extensively for milk haulage, in the opinion of trans- portation experts who have studied the problem. Better Mik with Tank Haulage. Involved in this movement is a shipping victory not yet appreciated very widely. The extensve intro- Guction last year of glass-lined ther- mos tanks on trucks to insure for the consuming public a lower acidity test for their milk, as well as the elimina- tion of chutning en route. There is every reason to believe that the other products that find their way to market and railroad siding from agricultural areas will be carried in trucks on a larger scale during the current year. The farmer today is in a much stronger position to purchase farm equipment than in recent months, the value of last year’s crops belng $6,000,000,000, an Increase of $1,260,000,000 over the preceding year. Just reflect that the moter truck makes it possible for the farmer to trave 125 per cent longer distance; make 183 per cent more round trips; carry 48 per cent more corn 60 per cent more wheat and 83 per cent more cotton than horse-drawn vehi- cles at 45 per cent, 50 per cent an 37 per cent of the ton-mile cost of ‘wagon-hauled corn, wheat, and cot- ton, respectively. Reduces Postoffics Costs. The Postoffice department, after seven years’ experience with motor trucks. has come to the conclusion that they have many advantages over horse-drawn equipment, even where the distance to be traveled is short. In one city alone $30,000 was saved by the motorization of a portion of the letter-box collections and parcel: post delivery services. The American Railway Express, probably the largest user of local transportation units in this country, as also found that increased econ: omy, larger volume of business and greater satisfaction result from truck usage. Coincident with this fmportant thange toward extensive motorized service in local and suburban service, there has come about an equally striking realignment in urban passen- ger transportation. The necessity for some such change as this will be appreciated, when it is recalled that there has been an increase in urban population of 12,192,826, or 28.6 per cent, in the last ten years, and that our rural population has increased only 1,518,016, or 3.1 per cent. This great increase tn urban popu- lation has made necessary the exten- sion of existing strect car lines and Auto Wrecking Co We tear ‘em down; everything saved but the honk.

Into this gap has come the motor bus, of which there are over 40,000 today in operation. More than fifty street railway com- panies are today operating 350 busses as adjuncts to rail lines.

COLUMBIA AIDS IN MAKING OF AUTO HISTORY “During the year 1922 the Columbia Motors company contributed . gener- ously to the making of automobile history,” says Walter L. Daly, vice President and director of sales for Columbia. | “Columba was the first manufact-| urer in recent years to bring out a six-cylinder car in the less-than- $1,- 000 cals.
