IT is my firm belief that the automobile industry in this country is bound to grow to many times its present size and value. I do not believe that the present annual output of motor cars, large and small, has reached a point where it is equal to demand. I believe that unless we have some very serious business depression, the use of motor cars will show a large increase in coming years.

It is evident from the general construction and design of the conventional motor car of to-day that there are distinctions in type of many varieties and modifications in minor details, in size, in solidity of construction, of finish, of horse power, and of price, but there is a generally accepted type, from which naturally there will be departures in the way of improvements and refinements each season.

For the more exacting class of purchasers I believe that the six-cylinder car will be a necessity. Its place is already established, and it will continue to represent the highest and best development of motor car for private users generally, while at the same time there will be a large class of purchasers who will by preference select the four-cylinder car, and the users of four-cylinder cars will be, of course, in the great majority.
