less they are ordered, and no
quotas are established for dealers.
In answering the complaints
of specific dealers. however. the
GIN spokesman explained that
they do keep national and zone
average figures on what their
share of the market should be
and that the company tries to
encourage dealers to maintain
their business in such way that
they will get their fair share of
the market.
The testimony showed that
when a dealers sales continue
to fall below national and zone
averages negotiations are carried
on to see what Improvements
can be made and even when
these negotiations fail. dealers
in some cases do not have their
franchises removed.
In the past franchises were on
an annual basis, but during the

year contract.

new the contracts sustained. he
said. The witness contended this

try to deal fairly"

Senator O'Mahoney attempted
to find out from GIN president
Harlow H. Curtice what the COM
pany does II it finds a franchised
dealer has been channeling new
cars into the bootleg market by
selling them to a used car lot
for small profit.
MIR. Curtice said such a dealer
probably would have his future
shipment of new cars reduced by
the number he had disposed OF
in that manner. plus a good
heart to heart talk" Mr.. Curtice
has insisted that he has taken a
leading part in the fight to put
a stop to car bootlegging.
Senator O'Mahoney offered
Mr.. Curtice the opportunity to
go into closed session before the
investigation ends in order to
give privately the names of any
dealers whose allotments have
been reduced for this reason, but
no immediate plans for such a
session were made

IF there is loose credit the
dealers themselves are to a large
extent responsible" said Mr.,
Malkerson.
He also predicted that if Con-
gress attempts to regulate terms
for factory-dealer relations, it
will not be confined to the auto
mobile business. He said that if
this happens the same dealers
who have testified before your
committee would reappear and
protest that Congress h d
placed the commerce of this
country in a straitjacket," said
Mr.. Malkerson.
Defends Franchise Policy
Defending the General Motors
practice of cancelling the fran
chises of dealers with poor sales
records, Mr.. Malkerson said:
IF Oldsmobile were to become
dissatisfied with me as dealer,
I would rather have them can
eel me out with the rights and
protection I have under the
franchise, than have them put
in another. leadership one block
away or across the street. which
they can do"
