Pushes Decentralization

trend Proof of this lies IN the
fact that In most cases the new
plants are being placed IN areas
where uaiomzation Is about as
thorough as In Detroit.
Nor are wage rates 2 vital
faetoR BeeadSc the trend IS
more and more toward a nation
wide base rate in the industry.
For example. General Motors
wage negotiations with the un-
ion are on q national basis.
More important is the desire
10 be near 10 the actual mar
kcts. thus cutting shipping costs
on both materials and the I'm
iShed cars.
Taxes are another important
incentive Taxes are high IN
Detroit and in surrounding COM
munitcS as compared with
many other areas.
In any event, here is proof
that the move IS on:
Buick. Olds and Pontiac are
adding three Joint assembly
