With W. C. Herring, assistant general manager in charge of sales, Mr, Brown visited sil the prinei- pal eities of Canada, studying pur. chasing power and market outlook An all areas, At his desk at the office of General Motors of Can- ada today, Mr, Brown briefly sketched conditions as they had presented themselves to him dur- ing his trip. Business Conditions "From a business standpoint at present," he said, "I would put Prince Edward Island first, then New Brunswick, then British Col- umbia and then Nova Scotia, Af- ter that I'm not so sure, Condi- tions are chamging. There are parts of the West where sales in November sre going to be a lot better because threshing weather came along and saved them. There were some sections where thresh- ing was only 30 per cent. finished when the storm hit them. Return of good weather has changed the outlnok. Things on the coast might be a Jot worse, There was a little slump in Jumber but not serious. Agriculture had a good year, Crops in the Okanagan Val- ley were wonderful. New farm areas are being developed surpris- ingly in British Columbia, "Shipping at Vancouver is ex- panding,"" Mr. Brown continued, "Wheat shipments, they told me, are increasing every day, partly due to the increased demand in the rice-consuming countries of the Orient, where low prices always win over a large hody of consum- ers to wheat, On the other side of the Dominfon, the situation fs brighter. Halifax, with its extra. ordinary construction activity and Winter commerce, stands out as one of the bést of all the cites, In Prince Edward Island, when 1 was there, conditions were excel. lent, Our own business on the island showed a 37 per cent in- crease so far this year, "I believe that all across the Do- minfon Canadians have displayed a uniformly admirable mettle under the business recession. but I am without words to describe the tem- per of the westerners. J never saw | anyone take abuse and come up smiling like they do, You simply cannot get anyone out there to be pessimistic, They say that nert year will be "better than ever' and they mean it. They are already talking about the moisture that has been stored for the 1931 crop 'Why you ean't stop us from hav- Ing a good crop next year,' is what they told me, "A banker told me a story about a man whom I think must have been = westerner. This man fell from the top of a 16-storey build- ing. As he passed the fifth floor he waved to a friend, and called out: 'Well. everything's all right so far', That's the spirit of the Can- adian West, and if they have a crop next year, that falling man Is going to bounce right back to the 16th storey, Blames Speculation "The banker who told me that one also agreed with other bank- ers that the West, right today, with present wheat prices, would not be in a serious position If people hadn't speculated heavily, They sold their wheat, many of them and then gambled their savings that it would go higher in price, Loss of this cash surplus in the market is what has hit some dis. tricts harder than the actual drop in wheat prices." "What one thing will do most to restore prosperity in Canada generally?" Mr, Brown was asked, "I can hardly answer that," he replied. "But T will say this much, Restore the automotive industry, and you do much to restore the economic activity of the whole country, YT mean that literally. Few people realize that every Chevrolet car manufactured in Canada means approximately three months' steady employment for one wage earner. . Furthermore, scores of thousands are dependent directly or indirectly on the auto- motive industry of this country. That is one important reason why the tariff regulations should be ex- amined. Any legislation designed to lend security to the Canadian automotive industry would be a real boom." Asked about possible produe- tion activity in the automotive trade in Canada in 1931, Mr, Brown said he could not give an estimate, hut that a summary of indices so far collected showed that business would be at least as active an for 1030 during the first part of 1031, and that the last half of the year stands a good chance of seeing a real improvement, just as it likely will in other lines of business, Will Widen Markets "As far as General Motors of Canada is concerned," he said, "I am not at all dubious, We are preparing very definitely to widen our market in Canada, While others are withdrawing we are re- doubling our efforts and spending more money than ever in the build- ing up of our fleld force, We have added scores of dealers and our objective is the addition of 700 more. We not only propose to add them but, also to strengthen them and I may say that the bankers with whom I talked are enthusi. astic about our plans for stabaliz. ing our dealer organization. Our tone organization, recently set up, will work with the banks to make batter business men of the Genera! Motors dealers, and the banks will work with the zones, Actually our dealer mortality bas been very small. repossessions of cars have not been numerous and collections have been better than reported conditions would lead us to ex- pect, When this depression in Respro: BIH KIDNEY J over we will have a very fine field organization." In conclusion, My, Brown said that used car inventories across Canada are in excellent shape and that there is a delayed demand for car replacements, pyramiding high. er and higher, and which may help 1931 rank with previous good years in volume of car production, "You never realize how fortunate you aro until you enter a gift shop and sec how many things your friends have not sent you,--Que- bee Chronicle-Telegraph, (VN IV NpIV-N Ee) Nall Jo M4.
