MOTOR CAR CENSUS TOT AL 32,000,000 DETROIT, June 26.—More than 32,000,000 motor cars were moving along the streets and highways of the world at the beginning of this year.

Spitzburgen and Bermuda are tied for bottom place with only one au- tomobile each. The Gilbert and Ellice islands have two busses but nothing else. The New Hebrides have no passenger cars but recog« nize the motor age with 25 trucks and three motor cycles. The country with the largest to- tal, next to the United States, is England, with 1,128,000 motor cars. France is next with 1,098,000 and Canada next with 1,061,000. China’s huge family of 400,000,- 000 manages to get along with only 425,581,
