NOTE: Distributions for May and Apiil are derived from reports of 104 banks,
53 of which reported dealer cost r'atids as well as maturities. The May maturity
distribution for new cars shown on pages 1 and 2 is based on 35,000 contracts,
23,000 purchased and 12,000 direct.
The cross-classification on this page is based
on 15,000 contracts, 12,000 purchased and 3,000 direct. The data are not intended
to be estimates for all commercial banks and are not comparable with previous
releases since composition of the group of banks changes from month to month.
