Auto Makers Allowed
To Start Technicians
On New Car Designs
By the Associated Press,


DETROIT, May l9.-Another move
looking to the production of entirely
new postwar model automobiles was
taken yesterday when the major car
makers in the Detroit area were au-
thorized to assign a limited number
OF engineers and technicians to the
designing of the vehicles. i
Edward L. Cusfman, State director
Of the War Manpower Commission
said the companies could use up to
per cent of their total employment
for the development of wholly new
models.
The action differs from that taken
last September in that the car man.
ufacturers, at that time, were au-
thorized to use limited number OF
technicians only for face lifting
the 1912 models, the last produced
by the industry.
Informed industry circles en-
phasized that the action did not
mean that the cars expected to come
from the assembly lines this year
will be entirely re-designed models.
At least year is required to design
and bring new model to the pro-
dUction stage.
Through the application of changed
radiator grilles, hood and fender
design, the cars expected this year
will look different from the 1912
models, but functionally they will
be much the same.
Assignment of engineers and tech
nicians to the task of designing
entirely new models was made pos
sible by the lifting of restrictions
on the use of experimental material,
Heretofore, each company was
limited to the expenditure of $4,000
a month for such material, which
one industry spokesman said was
like watering an elephant with a
medicine dropper."

GOOD JOB Being DONE

The armed forces are doing a
great job in getting the soldiers
home from Europe more rapidly
than anyone hoped for, T h e
railroads, using all available
equipment, are carrying the men
from the ports to their homes
with no more delays incident to
so huge a mass transportation
task.
If you are inclined to complain
because you cannot get peace
time railroad service, just stop
and think what it means when q
ship like the Queen Mary lands
some $4,000 troops! And the
Queen is but one ship, several
may arrive in one day. These
troops must be moved-sone a
few miles, some 5000 miles.
Never was such transporta-
ton job faced by any railroad
system. Responsible officers in
the armed forces and in the rail-
road industry realize that no trans
portation task of this size can be
accomplished as rapidly as this
one is being done without some
difficulties and discomforts,
The total passenger travel on
the railroads this year will be
probably five times that of pre-
war years, but it is being carried
with virtually the same number
of coaches and sleeping cars then
available. This years load, close
to two and one-half times that of
the peak year of World War l,
must be carried with 80 per cent
fewer passenger-carryiug cars.
The railroads would have built
more cars to meet the traffic de-
mand of recent years. but per-
mission to build them could not
be obtained during the war be-
cause of material and manpower
shortages, The roads are now
being allowed to build some cars,
but these will not help relieve
the situation for some months.
Every effort is being made
both by the railroads and by gov
eminent agencies concerned, to
secure the maximum use OF ex-
listing equipment in moving SOL
diers promptly and with as much
comfort as can be provided, with
facilities limited by the govern
ment's own needs.
