pErRolIr.

Detroit. Aug. 1S.-There Is q1ite
q pronounced feeling here that al
post-season period of manufactur-
ing activity will result because Of
the coal and rail strikes. Automo,
bile men believe that the present
fall on in demand means a greater
business in the last quarter of the
year. This would furnish employ
ment TO thousands OF automobile
workers. who heretofore have
sought other employment during
the winter. Moreover, 1t would nice
~ balance the year for the manu-
| facturers.
Before the first Of August it ap,
peared that automobile production
for 1872 might exceed all previous
yearly records. but the outlook now
is for close to 1000 900 cars an
Exceedingly good year but not a
record breaker. Because Of the in
reference Of strikes, many plant
managers are "all set" to open up
on record breaking production pro-
grams just as soon as they feel
convinced that the railroads car
handle the business. The president
of one OF Detroit's largest sheet
metal companies makes a state
ment typical Of the attitude o.
many executives. He says: Il fee
we should sort OF stand aside whii'
the crops and coal get under mo
