In a public hearing he ques-

dress Mr.. Warren had made be-

had become a member Of the

signed from both in 1889 when

|AufoCutbacks
Disturb British

LONDON. Jan. z GA slow
down in production by three big
automobile manufacturers gave
a jolt today to Britons riding q
prosperity wave.
For the first time since World
War II the slack hit directly
home, with an Austin Motor
Works announcement that the
5000 workers in its Birmingham
plant were going on a four-day
week beginning Monday. Two
other manufacturers - Standard
Motors of Coventry and the
Rootes Humber Hawk plant at
Observation-Disclosures - said they
were slowing production largely
by eliminating overtime.
Manufacturers were quick to
give assurances that the cut
backs were only temporary to give
the industry "breather." But
these assurances failed to quiet
fears in the country, where there
are still two vacancies for every
joblesS person listed at the en-
|ployment exchange.
Workers Uneasy
But there was unmistakable
anxiety among workers, EVIL
denced by talk of recession"
The Austin company said the
four-day week could be regarded
as temporary and merely re-
fleets current market conditions"
Indications are that normal
working should be resumed in
weeks" a company spokesman
said. There is always q recess
sion at this time of year."
Most automobile dealers still
have waiting lists but the de-
mand has dropped off sharply in
recent months. Three factors are
blamed for the slump-an in
crease in the purchase tax on
cars from so to go per cent;
|glut of secondhand cars, and
tighter restrictions on intallment
buying. requiring a third Of the
price down and a maximum of
two years to pay.
Production Rate High
British automobile production
is at a record high. Manufac-
turers generally dispute any ex-
port slump and a spokesman for
one company, Jaguar, said 1--WE
are going to have to increase
production to meet demand"
Ford said the assembly lines
still were working five days a
week-two shifts a day-at the
company's big plants in Dagen-
ham and Doncaster.
British manufacturers are
keeping an eye on the huge in
creases in production in France,
Italy and Germany, Offering
stiff competition in the overseas
car market.
One dealer said the British
situation was "a mild refiec-
ton of what is happening in
America"

which dealt with the common

cations, representatives of the
Jewish Community Center, per-
sons living in the area and repre-
sentatives of the community at

how these services can best be
made available.
