uch an assessment ence; hut very
few industries can stand such an
assessment continually. The laborer
whom you are now paying $25 a
week can buy his first cur and can
assess you to pay for it by demand
ing ?::() per week instead of th. Hut
can he assess you for his second or
third car; and can his children do
the same thing? Frankly, I do not
knew. Only the future can tell.
"The automobile industry is large
ly responsible for the condition of
ImsinesK today. The fact that the
disonchart stands at 1 per cent
above normal compared with 17 per
cent below a year ago is due largely
pi-epare for u'ceks. Many of us nev- I to the automcbile industry. IWhen
er traveled that far until we wer
grown up. Tcdn.v, however, the
situation is very different. Young
children will go a hundred und fifty
miles for a Sunday drive. Our young
people use automobiles to go to the
store, anil to go to church. It has
beccme a necessity- We are raising
a generation which will actually
work and play on wheels.
"This cannot help but greatly de
velop certain industries and harm
others. At present the automobile
is greaiiy neiping me luulding in
dustry becuuse or the millions of peo
ple moving from the cities to the
suburbs and country. After, however,
this exodus has been completed, the
building industry will fall flat. Why?
because instead cf a young mar

home they save for a car or rath

money will be spent upon clothing
