Business: Happy Trane
(2 of 2)
Touted as one of the new applied sciences that were going to bust the slump, air conditioning is still small potatoes. The industry's total sales last year were less than $60,000,000 compared with some $38,000,000 the year before. But the rate of growth in small airconditioning concerns like Trane has been impressive. In 1933 Trane's sales were a piffling $743,000. Two years later they were $1,700,000. For 1937 the company has set a quota of $5,300,000, which would be 75% better than 1936.
