iOVERHEAD EATS ECONOMY
Thus, overhead charges have be-
come major cost of today's auto
mobiles, eating up the economies of
great savings in labor cost. Jumped
together items of overhead based
upon style changes and promotion
for GIN zoomed from $182.6 mil
lion in 1887 to ST. ,405.4 million in
1857, an increase in 20 years of
go per cent.
The automotive industry has be-
come trapped in these costs. because
the tendency has been to intensity
style changes and promotional drives
when sales decline. This forces costs
per car sharply upward, making it
difficult to reduce price tags in order
to sell more cars-the action that is
supposed to keep the economy on an
even keel. Instead, factory prices re-
main rigid.
What is more, the report offers
considerable evidence that restyline
and advertising probably do not ma
terially increase sales for the indus
try as a whole-but mainly bring
about redistribution of business be-
tween companies. GIN has so many
in this kind of warfare
that the result is greater power for
the dominant corporation.
DIVERSIFIED ACTIVITIES
One of GINS big advantages over
rivals is the variety of products other
than automobiles in which it holds
important industry positions. For
years it has been the largest recipient

products is impressive. And it has
almost unlimited access to capital.

US. TROOP PLANES
 AT UNDISCLOSED BASE IN EUROPE

WASHINGTON, tA - The De- fense Department said Tuesday the movement of troop carrier planes from Donaldson Air Force Base, sc, to an undisclosed des- tination in Europe 'has been completed at this time"
 Asst. Defense Secretary Murray Snyder gave that reply to in- quiries about the rush departure on an undiselosed number of CHA Globemasters late Monday from the military air transport base near Greenville, sc.
 Planes from that base returned only recently from an earlier "operational readiness exercise to Frankfurt, Germany. In May, 31 fGlobemasters from Donaldson and other troops carrier bases flew to Germany. They were replaced at Donaldson by IS transports flown in from Larson Air Force Base, Wash.
 The Larson planes were re- turned to the Northwest as all the transports of the 63rd Troop Car rier Wing returned to Donaldson.
 Although the Pentagon refused to say whether the planes landed in Europe, the destination was believed to have been in Ger many, possibly Frankfurt again.
 Their presence in Germany would be at least a precautionary measure if the United States should decide to fly Army troops from Germany to the Middle East. No such movement has yet been disclosed.

 MIDDLE EAST

WASHINGTON, R The United States took the Hateful step Tuesday of throwing Amer ican military force into the seething Middle East.
 Five thousand Marines began moving ashore-by invitation-in embattled Lebanon.

 Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson of Texas, the Senate Democratic leader, said that in the judgment of the President the action was necessary to preserve freedom in the Middle East" Johnson added:
 Americans will certainly unite when the. security of the free world is imperiled."
 Rep. John w. Mccormack of Massachusetts, House Democratic leader, said that under the cir cumstances there was no other course he Eisenhower could take. There was no other road but that of appeasement."

 White said a third American escaped after being beaten.

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO. Mar. % A.-The strong
est influences in grain futures trading
emanated from Washington again this
week and while prices swung rather
widely at times on the Board Of Trade
they finished with narrow changes.
For the first time in several weeks
an old crop wheat contract lost ground
and, more unusual, it was the biegeSt
loser. The May delivery is of 2s4
cents bushel despite the fact that
supplies in commercial positions are
well below requirements until the new
crop is harvested.
trade advices indicated that flour
millers and other commercial wheat
professors have accumulated stable
stocks which. should be adequate for
their needs forNsome time. This led
some dealers to believe that although
commercial stocks may be tight they
won't be as tight as had been thought
and that the amount Of producer re-
demptions from Government loans will
not need to be heavy to meet re-
quirements
