Mexico Cuts Auto Quote
To Save Scarce Dollars
BY the Associated Press

MEXICO CITY, June 20
Mexico. trying to save her scarce
dollars. has slashed automobile
production by 43 per cent.
Last year $4,000 cars and
trucks were assembled here by
United States makers. The new
quota, for the year to June 80,
1850. is for $1,000.
The assembly plants provide
work for Mexican labor. but the
parts are all imported and must
be paid for in dollars. Automo-
bile men estimated the lower quota
would save Mexico about SIS. 000,-
900. This can be compared with
Mexico's unfavorable trade bal
ance of $3S,500, 900 in 1948.
