NEW YORK. Nov 1o.-conservn-
tive estimates OF motor vehicle prp-
duction IN the United States for 1921
forecast total Of 100000 pas
senget cars and trucks. says Auto
motive Industries. This compares
with i,92S.000 passenger cars and
34S.o00 trucks In 1920.
Shipments Of motor vehicles for
October we're only IL per cent. less
than FOR September. and they wero
96 per cent. OF shipments in octo-
Der last year.
The output last month exceeded
general expectations. ft marked
the eighth consecutive month in
which the production line remained
virtually stationary.
Reports from Detroit are 20 the
effect that manufacturers there do
not expect a material reduction IN
output for November. Some Of The
companies making the higher priced
cars believe Il will be necessary for
them to Increase their output.
Most truck manufacturers are
confident that November business
will be better than either September
or October.
