conferred with Mr.. Hillman and his
aides during the morning and del
egation from the United Automobile
Workers &C. I. o. was scheduled to
reach here from Detroit late in the
day for further conferences.
Mr.. Knudsen refused at his press
conference yesterday to speculate
on future quotas. but other defense
officials asserted that within a year
automobile output may be cut below
the number of cars needed to re-
place those relegated to junk yards.
This would mean> production at
approximately 80 per cent below
present levels.
About $500, 900 cars were scrapped
last year and officials said that the
total for the next II months prob
ably would not fall below that
figure and might increase greatly.
The shortage of scrap iron and
steel has resulted in an o. P. M.
campaign to expedite scrapping of
old cars, but there have been no
estimates of its probable effect on
the number of vehicles on the
highways.
Above August of 1910.
Normally, old cars remain in
junk yards for year or more
until all saleable parts have been
removed and the drive is designed
to speed the work of scrapping
them. 1t may result, therefore, in
more dilapidated cars going into
the yards.
There were 32,025 1865 motor We
Evening star., 1941-08-21

hicles registered in the United
States at the start of this year.
Mr.. Knudsen said that about
100000 cars would be made this
month.
That total is above the level of
August, 1910. when some companies
were shut down in a change-over
to new models, he said, but the
output during the following three
months probably will be cut until
the average production for the first
four months of the model year is
about 20 per cent under the 1910
mark.
Differences Reconciled.
An initial 20 per cent cut in car
production was agreed to by manu-
facturers some months ago. Mr..
Knudsen requested it and he 1nti-
mated that much more drastic cuts
would be necessary later.
Leon Henderson, chief of the
Office of Price Administration and
Civilian Supply, proposed a cut of
about 20 per cent during the first
three months of the model year
and a cut of so per cent during
the next nine months.
There was an apparent conflict
for time between o. P. M. and
Opacs over the manner OF restrict
ing production, but the differences
have been reconciled, officials said.
Mr. Knudsen said he had conferred
with Opacs officials on the quotas.
He and Mr.. Henderson met re-
Gently with officials of the industry
and said afterward that any plans

Defense and auto industry officials
! tackled the question of future pro-
duction quotas today, amid indica-
tions that the total passenger-car
output in the next II months may
be less than the 100000 cars junked
annually.
Should such a reduction occur, as
defense experts believe it may, it
would mean the third decrease in
a decade for the number of cars
in use. With the exception of 1888
and 1888 registrations have been
gaining each year.
The industry has just completed
its largest model-or manufacture
ing-year since 1929. with an output
of approximately 4,298,6 passenger
cars and 985, 900 trucks.
Today's meeting was Immediately
concerned with production quotas
for only part of the coming model
year-the period ending December
land the expectation was that the
passenger-car output would be cut
20 per cent below the 1910 model
year total.
Monthly Quotas Stated.
William S. Knudsen, director OF
the Office of Production Manage
ment, said that after December /
quotas will be fixed on a monthly
basis, three months in advance
Thus, the December quota will be
announced about the middle of Sep
tember.
