Ford, General Motors
Close Assembly Plants

STOCKHOLM.-Both Ford and
General Motors have decided to
close their assembly plants in
Stockholm. The great majority
Ct the five hundred employees
will be able to find new jobs with
out much difficulty. General Mo-
tors, the oldest and biggest of the
two plants, was founded in 1927,
when American cars made up
ninety per cent of all automobiles
sold OH the Swedish market. To-
day, American makes represent
only five to six per cent of all
cars sold in Sweden, where smaller
automobiles, as in m amy other
European countries, have become
more and more popular. Because
the difference in import duty be-
tween parts arid assembled cars is
small, and ST n e the gain in
freight costs for automobile parts
is outbalanced by the higher pack
ing costs, American cars assem-
bled in Sweden actually come con-
siderably higher than the finished
ones. The original advantage of
importing automobile parts from
the United States, in other words,
has been eliminated.
