PAM Crockett, stara pritel-
kyne Sdruzenf a ctitelka Ces-
koslovenska, zaslala opet SEX
ma $500, kteryzto zvyk sledu-
ie mesfcne jiz plnych sedm let.
Recnfk vecera, americky in
zenyr pan Axel Taub, ktery Sc
pred nejakou dobou vratil z
Ceskoslovenska, promluvil an
glicky O svych zkusenostech a
zazitcich, ash nasledovne:
"The Czechs are a part of
our modern civilization. They
are doing almost xeactly the
same things that we are doing.
It is interesting to note that
they built the first automobile
already in 1887. Twelve years
ago they built structures for
cars which will be used by
Willys-Overland next year.
They have a remarkable gift
for design, and their ingenuity
knows no bounds.
"Our intention is to tie them
to the standard of living as we
know it by showing them the
way. The motor car industry
must be made more efficient
and flexible, and has to become
the real automobile industry.
But as the Czechs are highly
developed technologically, and
they have sufficient qualified
morkers, they are apt to a.
chieve their program.
"They are now engaged in
making new trucks, cars, mo-
torcycles, and are adapting
them to fit the world market.
eve have here with us Mr..
Kalina, who will bring over Fl
Czech engineers to study Anne
rican methods, and we are
helping them to establish con-
facts. In Czechoslovakia we
don't want to do what Ford
does. Here WE can build big
cars, but over there vehicles
must be smaller and lighter.
Czechoslovakia is preparing to
build 100, 900 cars and $4,000
trucks soon. In the background
however, there is a lot of tech
nical work that has to be done,
Compromise will have to be
made. There are many skilled
workers in Czechoslovakia, but
the skilled worker is not al
WAYS the best worker. TIC
work by hand is slave labor,
but machines were created
exactly for this purpose = to
free people from drudgery
The idea is to convert SO tons
of raw materials into the fl
nished product as efficiently
and easily as possible.
"Things are beginning to
hum = to move, over there,
This year will be my fourth
visit. You must work with those
people, in order to assist them
in the automobile industry.
"When I return next fall.
we want to tell you of real pro
gress being made. We are out
to make a new car, the capaci-
}ty of which will be SO miles to
the gallon"
