It is significant to note the fig- ures on which the award for the 1922 shows were made comprised only the sales of six cylinder cars, proving Buick to be the largest builder of six cylinder cars in the ‘world, 3 MILLION CARS. 1922 SCHEDULE | Statistics Estimate This Sale for Next Year Some startling figures have furt deen given out on the automobile fn- dustry in general by H. D. Knudsen bf the WillysOverland Pacific Co. | From these statistics over 3,000,000 | cars should be sold in 1922 under |normal conditions, Up to January 1, 1921, 11,829,483 to make pictures of scenes while on | vehicles had been bullt In the United | }REDUCTION IN States since 1899. Of these cars only the small number of 613,695 had been exported. Registrations during 1920 showed 9,211,295 cars in use. This leaves 2,014,483 cars worn out or od, Of these 596,969 were discarded in 1919, and this number ts very close to the total output of cara in the United States for 1914, the exact number being 669,045. During 1915 $92,000 carn were bull. Financial @tringency and the holding back of the public on account of falling prices resulted in only 517,55¢ cars being discarded, and 374,444 cars be- ing carried over. The first big output was réached in the United States tn 1916 when 1,583,617 cars were built. A con jwervative extimate would be that not over & million of these cars would be replaced in the present year on account of athe same conditions that existed in 1920. i total of cars buflt in 1917 was | 1,868,047. This amount replaced by |new cars tn 1922 added to the cars held over in 1920 and 1921 to be re. placed under normal conditions would indicate the amazing total of almost 2,000,000 cars to be sold in the year 1922.
