BETTER DESIGN /
SEEN AS spur !
TO AUTO SALES
Motor Makers of Belief
That 1880 viii Be a
Going Ahead Year.

BIZ United Press
DETROIT, Jan. 24-Chief stimulus
of the auto market in 1880 will be
the better design of cars and better
performance, coupled with at
tractive styles, according to Albert
Reeves. general manager of the Ma
tional Automobile Chamber of COM
merce.
This is the year of the engineer"
Reeves said. This year the
engineers will be at the throttle,
turning on the steam which will
enable the industry to make a
successful run"
The sales department, dominating
influence in 1929, when production
exceeded demand, will continue to
have its problems, Reeves believes.
Belief that 1880 is a going ahead"
year. already voiced by many car
manufacturers, was reiterated from
the Ford company officials today,
with announcement that the biggest
spring season business in five years
is expected.
Production Of cars and trucks in
February Will be increased to 10000
units and March production will be
at least 10000 units, it was said.
The Chevrolet company reports
the same trend. H. j. Klingler, vice.
president and general manager, said.
Sales for January. 1920. would be
greater than for January, 1929. 1t
was necessary. he said. to increase
quotas to many dealers during the
month.
No revolution, but evolution, in
colorS is expected by Francis Will
loughby, custom body maker Of
Utica, N. Y. In the finer types of
cars, Willoughby said, a graceful
enrichment of combinations can be
expected, with a tendency toward
two-tone effects.

STABLE RUBBER GOAL
American-BritiSh Interests
Asked to Unite.
BIZ United Press

bH Cntt6N EfeSS
NEW YORK, Jan. 24.-Co-opera-
ton of American and British rubber
interests in an ambitious plan to
stabilize the rubber industry, now
suffering from depression and heavy
losses. is urged in a statement re-
leased today by David M. Figart,
commercial expert associated with
the United States Rubber Company
for many years, and formerly special
agent of the department of COM
merce under President Hoover.
The article, appearing in the
February issue of the North Ameri-
can Review, points out that Amer
lea uses two-thirds of the worlds
supply of rubber, yet controls less
than 8 per cent Of it. This situa-
ton, Figart says, has resulted in
price fluctuations that have thrown
basic American industry into
chaos.
