widespread early apprehensions,
the, auto industry appears GER
tain to make 1854 one of its bet
ter years in production and re-
tail deliveries.
Profits probably will be smaller

900 retailers throughout the
country. Some dealers even will
lose heavily in the final totaling
up on the years business.
The industry built 1855. 600
passenger cars and $50. 900
trucks In the first half of 1854.
Figures on retail deliveries still
are wholly unofficial. However,
all surveys agree they exceeded
actual expectations Of the TOP
sales executives.
