Kaiser's Suggestion
On Planning '45Cars
Termed Half Baked
Auto Firm President
Says Proposal
Is Ridiculous
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Dec. 5.-Joseph w.
Fraser, president of the WHY'S
Overland Co. and a director of the
-Automotiye Council for War Pro-
duction, today termed ridiculous
the suggestion of West Coast Ship
builder Henry j. Kaiser that the
automobile industry plan 1s45 model
cars now and accept War bonds as
down payment.
IF we should go out now and
begin to design for 1945, it would
. defeat the purpose of the Automo-
tive Council and the great accom-
pllshments the automobile industry
has made to win this war" Mr..
Fraser said at press conference
Mr.. Kaiser made the suggestion
last night in an address before a
convention session of the National
Association of Manufacturers here
. Raps Proposals.
I'VE hesitate to bid our hand until
1t Is dealt" Mr.. Fraser said. 1--WE
don't know what the 1945 economy
will be nor what the 1945 automobile
ought to be, or if l945 will be the
year Of the end of the war. It
might be 1855.
"As for taking War bonds, the
Government has asked all of us to
keep War bonds non-negotiable. II
I'm not mistaken, it is illegal to
transfer War bonds and it would be
an inf1ationary step, not step to
combat imitation.
Mr.. Kaiser has done a great job
as a shipbuilder, and I am not dep
recating bis war effort. but I think
his challenge to automobile men
is as half-baked as some of his
other statements, such as the pro-
posal to build thousands of cargo
planes"
Smaller Cars Forecast.
Mr.. Fraser declared that "the
scarcest thing on earth is a drafts
man, and next, an engineer who
can give suggestions for the drafts
man to work on
"As an automobile man for 30
years." he continued, Il resent a
West Coast shipbuilder asking us If
we have the courage to plan post
war automobiles when the President
of the United States has requested
that we forego all work which would
take away from the war effort to
assure competitive position after
the war"
Forecasting that ''there will be
few luxury cars after the war" Mr..
Fraser said. the industry antici-
pated demand for lighter, smaller
cars.
Il think the public Is being mis-
led by all these pictures OF plastic
models with glass tops, done by
artists who probably wouldn't want
to sit under those tops in summer
and sweat" he added.
