tested that a proposed reduction

result of reduction in returns
from FILA mortgages. These. he
said make up a large partnf-tAe
companies investments.

Out of-Town Buyers
Get Strikers Cars
Ry SILER FREEMAN

Willy out-of-State buyers have
found the General Motors strike
bonanza for used cars. II has
given them an opportunity to
pick up some good automobiles
which they otherwise would not
have had.
From several sources it was
learned that these vultureS have
been visiting the picket lines
and flashing ready bankrollS in
the faces Of the froSt-bitten
strikers. With bank savings and
bonds getting depleted by the
long tieup, many have faiirn for
the lure and sold their cars to
the buyers.
Many Of the >lickcrS take
their victims out of the picket
lines, rush them 10 the Secrc-
tary of states office and get
the transfer of title lmmedi-
atcly. In this way, Detroit'S al
ready hard-preSSed tranSportar
tion comes IN for additional
woes.
