No Auto? Then Use

WASHINGTON, Dec. II up -
The government is going to cut l942
automobile production to the bone
but there are going to be 100000
new bicycles available for use next
year
Pcdalling is going to be easier,
too. because the industry has been
asked by the OPM's civilian supply
to reduce the average weight of
each bicycle from 40 to "a pounds.
The bicycle industry advisory
committee was assured by OPM of
enough steel to build the 100000
new bicycles If the weight of the BIZ
cycles is further reduced the in
dustry will be able to produce even
more units, defense officials said.
Production this year amounted to
approximately 100000 bicycles.
