Waite, of the Grant Motor Car Corporation. "I doubt whethere vnen in the in dustry itself have actually realized that practically one person out of every fifty in the United States de pends upon automoble work of some kind for livelihood, " says Mr. Waite. It is estimated that factories, acces sory makers, dealers and garage own ers employ over 800,000 people. At the lowest estimate each of these peo- If Scook n H with. IUbJ V U1L M pie has at least one other person de pendent upon him and that means practically two million people or one fiftieth of the total population. "Another point that is not general ly realized is the broad distribution of motor car3. People who speak of automobiles as luxuries and who think of them as a plaything of the so-called 'idle rich' will be surprised to know that in some of the western states one person in every thirty owns an automobile. "The fact is none of us realize how big the country has become and how well off we are. The production of Grant Sixe3 has always been far be hind the demand for them. "On the basis of the figures given above, every one thousand dollars' worth of automobiles produced gives employment to one person, in some way.
