~AUTO INDUSTRY PUT tion system undergo a marked change in the next few years. Our great rail- roads will not be put out of business, but they will confine themselves more and bore to the 'lonTmnl traffic, and the motor truck will take up the burden of ‘short-haul’ transportation. “The growth of bus lines and of motor freight lines in the last five years has been pheriomenal, yet it is only a beginning of the developme that are to come. Coincident with this growth will come an ever-widen- ing fleld for the passenger automo- bile. A greater and greater scope of utility will open up for it. Every de- velopment that will lower the price and the cost of operation will create a wider market for _automobiles, because it will bring them within the reach of more potential buyers. The talk about ‘saturation point' is non- sense. The only limits to the auto- mobile field are the ones that the manufacturers and dealers set up about themselves. “The money problem and many other snags are belng gradually re- moved, and it is only a question of time before the United States will be enjoying the prosperity toward which we may all look with confidence.” _ ) ONA SOUND BASIS Real Problem of War’s After- : math Solved, Says William N C.
