Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Report of the Indianapolis Survey for Vocational Education, 1917, Vol. 2 Growth of the industry. According to the report of the 1914 census of manufacturers, the automobile industry in Indianapolis, including the plants making bodies and parts, ranked third in number of employees, second in amount of wages paid, second in the value of product, and second in net value of product over cost of materials used. Since 1914 the industry has developed rapidly, and it is to-day one of the two or three leading industries of the city. It has risen to its present rank in a period of not over 17 years. Except as a very minor part of the carriage and wagon industry, the manufacture of automobiles was, in fact, not reported in the 1899 census of manufacturers. In 1904 the number of establishments reported was four; the number of wage-earners, 447; and the aggregate wage, $278,000. The products´ turned out that year were valued at $798,000 or $1,787 per wage-earner employed. By 1909 the number of establishments had increased to 17, the number of wage - earners to 2,394, the aggregate wage to 81,446,000, and the value of the product to $8,840,000, or $3,693 per wage-earner. In 1914 thirty establishments reported 2,673 wage-earners, aggregate wages amounting to $1,916,000, and aggregate product valued at $12,693,000, or $4,749 per wage-earner. In the present inquiry, eight factories making finished automobiles, and thirty - two making bodies and parts were visited. In the factories making the finished product 4.130 wage-earners are employed, and in the others, 1,388, making a total of 5,518 engaged in the industry. The 800 or more employed in the garages and service stations bring the total number covered by the Survey up to 6,318.
