A few a re listed below. T he autom obile industry increased 45 percent in 1934 over 1933 and reach ed a $5,000.000.000 enterprise. M ontgom ery W ard & G om pany r e t r i e d $9,302,023 net profit for first 11 m onths in 1934. O rders fo r electric equipm ent increased 26 percent. O rders rep o rted by 78 m a n u fa c tu re rs inceased from $325.- 066.000 in 1933 to $410.000.000 in 1934. An average gain of 16 percent in ad vertising is show n in index figures com piled by P rin te rs Ink. Of th e to tal spent for advertising, new spapers accounted for m ore th a n $500,- 000.000, m agazines about $110.OoO.000. radio ad vertising m ore th a n $70.000,000. outdoor advertising about $40,000.- 000. an d farm pap ers $15,000.000.
