-
There Are More Than 1000 People Who Labor at Tasks-That
With the Industry, and More Than 5000 People Dependent Upon the Industry Here
In a Little Over Twenty
People in This Industry
Salem has been growing and 'in
creasing her -lead during the past
year as the outstanding automo
tive industry center of Oregon,
outside of Portland. The growth
of this! industry here has been
wonderful. It will not stop. 1
Many' people here-who are! yet
young in both years and feelings
remember well the first automo
bile in Salem., It arrived only a
little oyer 20 years ago. There
were no automobiles worth .men
tioning In 1900, west of New York
and only a few there, of the lum
bering taxi pattern that would look
ery odd today. , ,
Only just a few years ago, all
he gasoline and oil delivered in
Salem were taken around Jby one
man with his team of two old
horses, i Now the five big oil com
panies operating here employ 77
men, and they use many tank
trucks and cover a wide territory.
besides 'serving their Salem cus
tomers, i - .n
: Growth Is Steady
The Slogan editor of The States
man two years ago made a resume
of the automotive Industry of Salem.-
He found 94 private individ
uals and firms In business em
ploying ;449 people. lie found
last year 110 such individuals and
concerns, and they were employ-j
ing' 532; people.. This year ho
finds 137 such individuals and
concerns, and they are employing
610 people. .- . L
Add to these 125 or more In the
state highway department, shops
and testing laboratory.
Add 88 the 50 to 75 or more in
the automobile and traffic depart
ments working .under the secre
tary of state. .
Add 88 the 50 or 73 employees
working in connection with the 9ft
stages coming into and going out
of the Salem Terminal station.
Add the 5 to 15 county employes
reporting at the Marion county re
pair shops.
Add the 77 employees of the big
oil companies.
Make a total of the above, and
you have a total of 903 people.
nd that is not all, :
There are more than 1,060 peo
ple in &alem, and coming in and
going out of - Salem, and having
their homes here, or taking most
of their meals here, who are em
ployed in one way or another In
the automotive industry in its var
ious phases. -
For instance, there may be add
ed to those -mentioned above the
4 0 men ! who are connected with
the Willamette Valley Transfer
company, with headquarters in Sa
lem, and making Portland and all
the valley towns on both sides of
the. river, as far south as Eugene,
They have 30 freight trucks, most
ly mammoth freight haulers, and
10 trailers. In their offices and
freight house on Front street , in
Salem they employ on an average
about 10 people.
The Valley Packing company,
the very successful meat packing
concern here, makes many ot its
deliveries with seven' trucks and
four salesman's cars.
The wholesale grocery concern
the Willamette Grocery company
uses a number of trucks in mak
ing deliveries all over the Valley.
All of the canneries and fruit
handling concerns employ auto
mobiles and trucks in carrying on
their work. -; -
The state institutions all employ
automobiles and trucks.
' There are numerous firms and
persons that have not been listed
above employing autos and trucks
for deliveries and in various other
ways; numerous tails' .
. And. in short, 1000 Is too low an
estimate of the number of people
employed in and about Salem In
the automotive Industry. You
could add all the. bakeries to the
list, and; all the gravel concerns,
with many autos and trucks, and
the T-aper mill, using numerous
trucks ln pulp wood deliveries and
In other ways. The local reader
can recall many others.
Million and naif and More
Count ; the wages of all these
people and the earnings of the pro
prietors figured as wages, at $5 a
day. This Is conservative, for
many schedules o the high class
Years We Have Come to Employ About a Fifth of Our
mechanics and others run much
higher. Multiply this $5000 a day
by the 312 working days in the
year, and yon have over $1,560,-
000 a year.
That is a most conservative fig
ure for the direct income of Sa
lem from the automotive industry
for a year, on the present basis
And indirect benefits are many;
they are felt in a thousand ways
And the industry is growing in
all its branches, and will continue
to grow throughout the years.
with -the increasing length ot
paved highways centering in Sa
lem; with the , growth of popula
tion and business In every direc
tion. Over ."WXX) lcopl Represented
These more than 1000 people
make up.with their families, count
ing five for each worker or man
ager or proprietor, more tnan
5000 of the population of Salem
and its immediate suburbs say a
fifth ot our total population.
counting what , is termed in the
east our metropolitan district, in
cluding our immediate suburbs,
such as West Salem and districts
north, south and east outside of
our corporate limits.
Take away those over 5000 peo
ple, and Salem would feel the loss
keenly. Put them together In. a
city by themselves and they would
make a. lively and progressive city.
A Creditable Showing m
' The automotive industry of Sa
lem makes a creditable showing
fcr Itself. The working forces are
competent. They can repair or
rebuild any car of any make. They
can make tne mosi aencaie-adjustments.
They keep on hand

THIS WEEK'S SLOGAN
DID YOU KNOW That Salem is an important center of
the automotive industry; that her central position in the
Willamette valley, with a system of pared highways
radiating in every direction, brings the trade in every
line here, from new and second hand cars and tractors
to parts and repairs; that the collection here of the mil
lions of dollars annually in license fees and gasoline
taxes, and the state automobile machinery plant, and
the State Highway department, and the big oil and gaso
line companies operating here, give employment to large
forces, which are being constantly increased; that the
stage and truck lines are rapidly adding to their forces
here, and that the whole automotive industry centered
here is expanding rapidly and steadily, giving to this
" city a constantly greater prestige in this field, and that
the future Ogives great promise in every branch of this
great andfasl developing industry?
