Compared with the Railroads
The estimated possible annual passenger mile service
of motor cars is about 60,000,000,000 as compared with 35,-
000,000,000 passenger miles attributed to our railroads.
These multipliers of energy are traveling 40,000,000 miles
a day, the equivalent of 1600 times around the world.
Many a nation has been conquered, not for lack of bravery
or men, but for lack of transportation. We are farther
from our bases of supply than any warring nation.
This nation must devote every ounce of energy to pro­
duce more food, more munitions, but with the enormous
increase must come more transportation; more done in less
time. We cannot go back to the days of the army mule
and pack saddle, the prairie schooner and the “One hoss
shay.” Speed, speed and more speed is the cry. And Am­
erica answers with her 5,000,000 automobiles the great-
est transportation tool, the greatest aid to personal effici-
ency in the world.
H um you an A uto? If not see us now. It will save
you more than it costs if you use it right.
