The return of an auto buyers market win help some but further emphasis on economy will be necessary. Those are the findings of Wilfred Owen, trans portation specialist of the Brook ings Institution. Owen analyzes the trends of auto uses and cost ana their importance to the national economy in rAutomotive Trans portation," a book just published by the institution. Before the war an "average new car in the medium price field was operated at an annual estimat ed cost of 4.3 cents a mile. That figure was determined in a study by the public roads, administra tion. . The total annual ctist of the car for thei year 1941 Was estimated at $363 It was assumed that the average auto selling price was $900, that annual travel wis 9,000 miles and thit the car hid 10-year service1 life. Owen says that jlast year the magazine. The Automobl list, figured the yearly cost Of a 1948 car was $851.33 or a little more than 8.5 cents 4 mile. It was assumed the car sold for $2,000 and was operated 10,000 rniles in a year. In 1941 the biggest single item in average auto costs was gasoline. In post-war years expenditures for motor vehicle purchase (whicli de termine depreciation costs) have been larger than those for gasoline. The annual depreciation cost in the 1941 estimate was $90 compar ed with $400 (first year) in the 1948 study. Gasoline cost was $94 50 in 1941 and $180.03 (including tax) in 1948. Maintenance Ctftpairs) was figur ed at $75 in 1941 and $100 in 1948. Auto fees and taxes were $38.50 before the war and $68 in the post war year. Insurance rose from an estimated $25 to an estimated $85 SO. ill x High auto prices have been in part a temporary situation owing to comparative scarcity of new : cars, Owen "says that while prices will ultimately decline ttiey presumably will stabilize well above pre-war levels. In recent years the weight of autos has increased with great er horsepower for improved; per formance. And costsi Owen asserts, have increased in almost direct proportion. In 1948 the typical car was 150 I Valley Obituaries MRS.

Wednesday. Rev. Victor Loucks will officiate Burial will be in the franklin Butte cemetery. 4 Mrs. j Veverka was born in Czechoslovakia, Sept. .22, 1879. She came to the Scio community in 1912- She was married in Al bany Oct. 28, 1915, to Frank Veverka who died in 1931. Sur viving! are a daughter, Mrs. Rich ard Burmester, and, one grand daughter, Janet Burmester, both Of Sclo; and two . brotfrs, John and George Hahn, nd one sister, Josephine Hahn, all of Czecho slovakia. l pounds heavier than in 1941 and 500 pounds heavier than in 1937. There has been emphasis on the possibility of weight reduction in the use of lighter materials such as aluminum and plastics. But Ow en says the prospect of adapting airplane materials and construction to motor cars must be viewed with caution. He cites one engineer who thus expresses the problem: "If our cars always stayed on the road. I would say that we might build airplane - type bodies." The fact that the motorist expects to bounce his car off a telegraph pole and live presents a different problem.
