AUTO MEN CURB
MODEL CHANGES
Small TooIing Costs Likely
to Help Maintain Earn
ings Levels.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the AS5ocAteo PresS.
NEW YORK, July 29-With the
Ford assembly lines shut down until
August 9 and the end Of the 1887 sea-
son near at hand generally, the auto
mobile industry is giving its attention
to 1898 changes and to the relationship
OF these changes to business conditions
in the coming Winter and Spring.
The change-over in models in some
companies-particularly General Mo-
tors divisions and Chrysler, which are
still in heavy production-will prob
ably be done without much tapering
off of work.
Pontiac built we'll over 1000 cars
last week and the same amount the
previous week" writes Burnham Fin
ney in his Detroit letter to the Amer
ican Machinist.
"G. M. divisions will 60 into August
With operations high and will suddenly
halt work on current models about
the middle of the month without much
ef1ort at tapering Off After two or
three weeks-about as short shut
down as ever knoWn-manufactu of
parts OF '38 cars will start"
Finney believes the changes for 'a8
cars aren't going to be very exciting.
In fact" he says, 'car makers are
wracking their brains trying to think
OF what to feature in their advertising
and selling. Most Of the innovations
that Will make customers gaWk and
talk are being held over until 1899
Business is good enough that cars will
be bought in huge numbers for an
other year without resorting to costly
changes.
The relatively small tooling charges
Tor '38 will help keep up motor earn
Hles, despite the fact that the increase
IN retail prices may not cover recent
boosts in manufacturing expenses,
In New York automobile circles
which, like Finney, do not believe the
changes in design will be very exciting
the emphasis. in discussing the '3s
mooels, is on improved handling of
cars and new safety devices.
Several companies, it was said plan
on following the lead of Oldsmobile in
using automatic transmission. Com
merclal usage of the hill holder" a
new Bendix product, is also expected
IN the new models. Studebaker has
ALREADY brought out the mo roll back"
a safeguard going up the hill, and
Ine new device operates as a further
safeguard in going down.

1853 FIRMS SHOW
EARNINGS GAIN
Total Reaches $345,4W
313, or 13 Per Cent Above
Same 1886 Quarter.
BY the Associate Press.


NEW YORK, July 29-Second-
quarter earnings OF the first 1853 re-
porting companies were l3 per cent
above the comparable period a year
ago at $345, ,402,313, a compilation by
the Associated Press showed today.
The rate of gain over the previous
year dropped substantially in the
latest quarter. the result primarily of
drastic declines in profits Of General
Motors and Chrysler
Rising costs and inability of the
big motor makers to operate at ca
pacity because Of strike tie-ups were
said in trade circles to have been the
underlying cause OF the setback.
Steel producers headed the list of
gamers. The first Is concerns in this
group issuing statements for the
quarter chalked up a $47.54Ol83 net
income against s20.79O,157 in 1896,
a 129 per cent advance.
Analysts pointed out, however, the
tabulation did not include the two
biggest independent steel companies
that were strikebound for a consid-
erable period, Republic Steel and
youngstown Sheet g. Tube. Financial
quarters expect both to report smaller
than average improvement because of
production delays.
A straw in the wind. they said was
that the only two steel firms showing
decline in the latest quarter COM
pared with last year were Truscon
and Inland Steel, both of which ex-
perenced strikes in the past three
months.
Building equipment concerns turned
in the second biggest recovery in
profits, up 65 per cent. Although
construction slackened somewhat in
the period as building costs mounted,
new structures were erected at a
substantially faster rate this year
than last.
Other groups doing better than
average were petroleum products, up
o2 per cent; machinery manufacture
ers, up ST per cent; railroads. 80 per
cent; automobile accessories, II; chem
lcals, Is. and utilities, IA.
The following tabulation shows the
number Of reporting companies, sec
ond quarter dollar income, and the
percentage gain over the same period
last year:
