How far this statement is borne out by facts is shown by an investigation carried out in ten states by means of questionnaires sent to license holders in California, Iowa, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nebraska, New York, Ohio, Texas, Virginia and Wyoming. Tables compiled from the answers received show that every business and profession has gained through use of the automobile. Nine classes of busi- ness and professional men were made up and all show important gains in efficiency, among them being farm- ers with a gain of 68 per cent, which explains the fact that farmers are the largest owners of cars, one-third of those in use being credited to J them.
