OF* PUBLIC FALLING OFF
Twelve Million Year* L... Tr??*porta,
tit>n in Nation'* C"*r Inventory Than
Concidered Normal, Manufacturer
Tells Financier*
ESTIMATING that transportation In
the form of automobiles now In Wie
hands of the American public Is twelve
million "car-years" below normal, ami
that Ibis deficit v. Ml evenhiaily have to
tm mado up, Richard If. Grant, vice
president of the (leneral Motors Corporation.
recently told the American
Hankers Association convention that
employment in bis company may be
greater this winter than Inst year.
"Employment during the winter
months Is a very important thing,"
Mr. Grant-said. ''So far as our corporation
Is concerned, In November, December,
January and February wo will
be employing at least as many and
probably more men than we did this
past year."
In order to gauge the outlook fur
next year's market bis corporation,
bo said, attempts to set up sales <ndices
based on Intensive sclentlllc
studies In addition to observation and
common sense.
"We are in the habit of looking
upon an automobile not merely as an
automobile but as transporatloij," be
said. "We ilgure each automobile
produced as six years of transportation.
Then by following up records
of production yearly, we get a graph
which indicates what ought to be u
normal Inventory of transportation In
the bands of the American people, and
whether there are more or less^iles
than might be expected. According
to onr figures, there are about twelve
million years less transportation in
this inventory at the present time,
than has been considered normal since
1925.
The Outlook (or Business
"Consequently, 11 we retain the same
purchasing power in this country, n
Is quite evident that on the lirst upturn
of business there will be a rush
I to replace thai inventory. In developing
tliis graph, it lias come out very
strongly that every third year is a
big automobile year. The biggest
automobile year was 1929 when 4.1UU,UUO
cars were produced for American
consumption. This year the industry
will produce somewhere betweeu"*-fc\
S00.000 and 1.900.nut) cars. As 1932 Ithree
years after 1929, if economic conditions
wore n; rmal we could be sure
we would do a tremendous business,
because the third year is the time when
the bulk of the replacing takes place.''
He added that there are factors at
work that make it uncertain how big
the year will be.' instancing that
"money is being hoarded from lack_
of ~confidence aiuT This takes away
som.e purchasing power that we would
otherwise have, while family budgets
are being cut on account of changes
in income conditions, which again
means that purchasing power for the
automobile, like a good many "Hither
things, will be knocked down." As a
result, he said. It was" necessary to
measure what statistically would be
a big year against a practical consideration
of the curtailment of expenditures
which is going on and determine
how big the year will be
under these circumstances.
"From a lung haul standpoint, regardless
uf.h.i* many automobiles are
sold in 1932. wc arc storing up a big
business for the future," .Mr. Grant
said. "There will be fewer automobiles
sold ill 1931 tli.ill will go to the scrap
heap. With l-'.ut o.ouu car years old
of the inventory, nine percent more
gasoline was used up to Augufi 1,
1931. than was used in 1930. Wi'.h
fewer automobiles, the people must
have been miming them faster and j
longer to e .nMime the additional gaso- J
line. This means that we have some!
22.000.iHmi people working hard to
make a tine business for cur Industry
when there is an economic recover'.-.
