Auto Industry Heading
For Free Production

Christopher explained that the
impact of the 15-cent boost would
be felt by the industry's suppliers
as well as the manufacturers
themselves, and they may not be
able to absorb it as well.
This in turn, he said, would
keep the auto makers from ex-
panding production to offset the
pay raise and move toward lower
prices.

DETROIT, April 20 up The
auto industry appeared headed to-
day for its first full postwar year
of free production, unhampered by
major labor disputes.
Even if only current production
rates were maintained, the indus
try would grind out 5000, 900 (M'
vehicles by years end.
The outlook was tempered by
the prospect that shortages and
hikh costs q S o m e materials
might hold, down a boom IN new
cars and trucks.
But some of the biggest threats
to continuing production were lift,
ed this week in a series of signifi.
cant pacts with labor-chiefly the
settlement of the CLIO United Auto
Workers with General Motors cor
poration.
The JAW came to terms with
the industry's largest producer for
the equivalent of a 15-cent raise
in hourly pay-packaged in an IL
IL cent flat wage boost and 3 IL
cents for holiday and added vaca-
ton pay,
Union officials confidently pre-
dicted that the other major pro-
ducers-Ford Motor company and
Chrysler corporation would fall
in line with the ''pattern' agree
ment and that eventually it would
be extended to all the 300, 600 auto
workers in the country.
Equally important from a pro-
duction standpoint was the settle
ment between the CLIO United
Steelworkers and the big steel
companies earlier in the week on
the 15-cent level.
Steel shortages posed the big
gest material headache of the mo-
tor makers in postwar production,
and a continuing supply was a
vital part of their plans for 1947.
Even so, there was little evil
dence that the industry would ex-
pand much beyond current rates
into a period of boom production.
The steelmakers were planning
vast additions to their facilities
which would boost output of sheet
and strip steel by some $500, 900
tons annually, but most of these
will not be in operation until the
end of the year.
The industry also seemed likely
to be plagued by continuing short
ages in lead, copper and zinc.
But the current output rate was
around 100, 900 units a Week-good
for at least 5000, 900 this year. OF
the total, some $500, 900 will be
passenger cars for the remainder
trucks and buses.
A yearly output OF $4,000 pas
sengers cars would cut a big
swath in the buyers market, now
scaled down cnsiderably by most
industry observers from the as
Economical predictions made i'm
mediately after the end OF the
war.
Estimates of the ready market
ranged from 5000, 900 to 10000, 900
passenger cars, figures keyed
argely to the dampening effect OF
oday's high prices.
Prices, in fact, appeared to
rouble the auto makers most.
Automotive News reported thai
most manufacturers were con-
scious of their role as industrial
leaders and anxious to turn the
p.ice tide to aid the country's
economy.
A good deal Of their uncertainty
over the future-particularly the
demands of labor was removed
when the JAW settled for Is
cents.
But George T. Christopher, pres
ident of Packard Motor Car COM
pany, said the 15-cent settlement
reduced the chances of the indus
trv to expand production in order

the wartime Developments to be
shown in the Empires shop WIN
dow - the British industries fair
in London and Birmingham from
May S to 16.
The minute motors to be shown
at Birmingham are believed to be
the smallest in the world. They
employ an electromagnetic prin-
ciple hitherto unknown, with no
commutator and no soldered
joints.
Known as "electrotorS," these
midget power units were invented
during the war by two brothers.
Their company plans to make
5000, 900 when they reach full pro-
duction in 1913. There are four
sizes the smallest, 3-16 inch in
diameter and weighing less than
1-28 of one ounce, requires enly l
IL volts and has a speed OF 7,ooo
revolutions per minute. The lar9-
est is l IL inches in diamter and
takes from 6 to "a volts.
These motors have many uses,
such as for air conditioning in
trains and automobiles, for wind
shield Wipers, movie c-meras,
automatic razors, hair clippers, ra-
dio controls, time fuses in projec-
tiles, stroboscopes, sclentlflc
instruments and domestic devices.

Impartialresearchp pollsshowthat, ,onthe
average, people think we make 5%. They
also think fair return would be 10%.
What We Make
But for the year 1916, with the biggest
peace time traffic in history, the rail-
roads earned only 2A%. This is
less than one-half the comparable earn
ings for other industries.
The reasons for this low return are
not hard to find. Since 1889 railroad
wages have increased 526ho% and the
prices of fuel, materials and supplies
have gone up 616ho%.
But freight rates have just recently
been increased an average of only
1791o%-ayear after the effective date
of the last big wage increase.
What About This Year?
1t is estimated that the return for 1947,
even with the recent freight rate in
crease, will be only about half the 6%
minimum return required to provide
the improvements and service needed.
This will be because of increased costs
of materials and supplies; because GER

WhV it takes So to make the grade

So when the railroads make only 2A
cents on each $1.00 of their net prop
erty investment, it concerns you.*
The funds for future new equipment
and improvements must come from rail-
road earnings and also from investors.
They will furnish money on reasonable
terms only if they have confidence in
the future earnings of the railroads.
You Haze Another Stake In This
Even if you do not own any railroad
stocks or bonds, insurance companies
and savings banks do. So you still have
a special interest in seeing that the rail-
roads are allowed enough to do a good
job for you.
We are publishing this and other
advertisements to talk with you at first
hand about matters which are impor-
tant to everybody.

of increased special payroll taxes on

What Does This Mean To You?
The answer is ''Plentyr' Your standard

cause of MASS PRODUCTION. But mass
production would not be possible with
out MASS TRANSPORTATION, which the
railroads provide at low cost.
Why 6% Is Needed
The kind of service your standard of

carry out the postwar Improvement
program for better equipment, tracks,
