it was around $4,000, nearly 10

That's why the British believe

Manufacturers & Traders, spon-
sors of the show. says the British
envisage eventual competition
from high-style continental cars
from France, Italy and Germany
But we intend to continue
presenting the highest quality in
traditional style" said Sir Will
liam, which now has made us
the worlds largest exporter OF
automobiles"
Sir William says there always
has been a market in America for
British cars-"very expensive cars
that appealed to certain group,
to be sure" But now, he says. the
British want the big mass market
for the type of small car that is
typically British, as we'll as the
expensive field. And he believes
the British will keep that field,

NEW YORK. April 15.-British
motor car makers are determined
to capture the entire foreign car
market in America.
Today they fired their biggest
gun with the opening of the first
all-British automobile and motor
cycle show in New York.
On display were about 100 diff
ferent automobiles made by %
manufacturers, along with motor
cycles, bicycles. trucks, buses.
diesel engines, trailers and acces-
sories. Prices run from $1,000 to
around $4,000.
The British are aiming at a per-
manent American market for 50,-
900 to $4,000 of their automobiles
annually. What they want is the

at wholesale value, which would
flow to Britain from the sales.
This to the British is the boldest
merchandising scheme their auto
industry ever has undertaken.
Right now they are producing We
hicles at the rate of more thar
100000 a year, an all time record
for them. Last year they made
Az, ,290 cars and exported so per
cent.
In the United States, passenger
car production in 1949 totaled S.
118,900 and 1,130,500 trucks for a
total output of 6,249. 400 units. At
the current rate of production,

Americans bought about $4,000
British cars last year in a market

| DooIittIe's Raiders
Pause 10 Remember
Dead Comrades
BY the Associoied Press

PALM DESERT, Calf, April IS.
-Thirty-s six members of the ia
nous Doolittle Tokyo raiders took
time today in their fifth annual
reunion to remember the men
who have passed on.
Meeting at the Shadow Noun
tain Club, the group disclosed that
messages of greeting and condo
lence will be sent to the families
and next of kin Of the 20 mem
bers of the Doolittle boys who
have died since that memorable
Tokyo raid eight years ago next
Tuesday.
The raiders have other serious
plans, more far reaching, which
have been unfolded since they
gathered here for business and
relaxation with their old-time
leader. 1t. Gen. James H. Doolittle.
For one. they want to lend a
hand to Jake" who got an idea. -
Became Methodist Minister.
Jake" is Corpl. Jacob D. De-
Shazer of Madras, Greg, a bonn
bardier on one of the Is B-25s
which took off from the carrier
Hornet on the fateful mission that
electrified the Allied cause and
blasted the Japanese capital, as
well as the Japanese smugness.
Jake's idea was to return after
the war and teach the japanese
something about humanity" He's
there now, an ordained minister
Free Notwithstanding on his
campaign.
The raiders plan to write their
histories of the flight, sort of
documentary of the raid for pub
lication, and use the proceeds to
"help Jake"
They also want to do something
to help the Chinese-the Chinese
who "nursed, clothed and fed
those men who landed or bailed
out over China after dropping
their bombs on Tokyo.
+ So related two of the raiders
1t. Robert L. Hite of Earth, Texas
and 1t. Jack Manch of Staunton
Va. and as Jimmy Doolittle put it;
These boys-and I'm not COM
manding this outfit, I'm just one
of them-want to do something
to enhance their worth and live
for the future. None of us wants
to live in the past, on the glory
of eight years ago."
Tonight the Doolittle boys sal
down to a banquet at Shadow
Mountain, guests of Col. Cliff Hen
derson. a high school classmate OF
Gen. Jimmy, with entertainment
rendered by Edgar Bergen and
Charlie Mccarthy and Bob Hope
Motion pictures of epochal flights
were shown, climaXed by their
own historic take-off from the
Hornet.
Tomorrow they'll gather outside
under the roof of a half completed
little non-denominational COM
munity church and participate in
it's first services. Then, another
business session-and taps that
night-until they meet again next
year.
Last night they were guests OF
Jacqueline Cochran, famed avia-
trix, and her husband, Financier
Floyd Odlum, at their nearby
ranch.

 The insurance protection under the terms of the bill reported to the House would be limited to the 48 States, the Territories, the pos sessions of the United States and the Canal Zone. As originally in troduced, one provision would have extended the program to places under the dominion and control of the United States" which was interpreted by some as being occupied areas, such as Japan and Germany.
