MONEYS WORTH
1859 Top Stories-W: Compact Cars
BY SYLVIA PORTER

In 1859 a revolution occurred
in Detroit and the American
automobile industry entered
the fifth epoch in its history.
Throughout 1860 the first re-
suits Of the revolution will be
emerging. Even now, though,
there is sound basis for pre-
dieting that among the results
will be a record or near-record
auto sales year.
But to me, impressive though
the prospect is, it wouldn't
justify the placing of the
American compact car among
the top business stories of the
year. What does justify the
ranking is the potential mean
ing Of the upheaval to the en-
tire economy-for If the COM
pact car is the success it seems
set to be, the whole country
will feel a lift.
We're an exceedingly car
conscious Nation and you know
how the auto magnates first
scoffed at the soaring popular
ity Of the, small foreign car
here, then frowned, then went
into action and placed stakes
running into millions of dollars
on their own competitive mod
els.
You know how nightly
American Motors and Stude-
baker Packard have proSpered
because of their Rambler and
Lark. You know how excitedly
enthusiastic was the public S
initial appraisal of the new
models this fall and how de-
cisive is the general approval
of the return to a wide variety
in auto styles and price ranges
The compact car does mark
the take-off of the automobile
industry in a new direction
AS Business Week defines tht

european Correspondent Of The etal


GENEVA, June /. - The
Western side at this foreign
ministers conference seems to
have weathered It's latest tea
Dot tempest.
The sharp reaction to the
Htpeech Of British Foreign Sec
<retary Selwyn Lloyd last SAT-
furday suggesting improvement
In certain respects" Of the
ssituation in West Berlin has
given rise to q new interpreta-
ton Of what Mr.. Lloyd meant.
According to this new In
depreciation, It did not mean,
as it seemed at the time. that
Mr.. Lloyd was suggesting the
possibility Of o number of
minor allied concessions In
Berlin in return for q Russian
undertaking to respect the
status quo. It Is now empha-
sized that Mr.. Lloyd denied
any personal knowledge of "in-
reference by the Western gov
ernments in the affairs Of West
Berlin" And that he spoke of
improving conditions in the
city from both points Of view"
Interpretation Denied
Specifically, it is now denied
that Mr.. Lloyd was suggesting
THAT the American radio sta
7 ton RIAS is a negotiable West
ern asset. Much Of the reac-
ton in the American camp was
directed against the notion
. that the stations fairly innoc-
> uous propaganda should be
!, toned down. or that the sta
I. ton should be moved elsewhere
!, as q ressure-relieving gesture.
Despite the cautious official
! backdown. however. Mr.. Lloyd
:, was. in fact. suggesting changes
j which would represent sim
! provements" mostly from the
. Russian point Of view. The only
: counter concession that the
. allies are seriously interested in
. is q formal Russian acceptance
.of their garrisons in the city
and continued access to them.
sMr. Lloyd's speech. furthermore,
was checked with Secretary Of
State Herter before delivery and
represented agreed allied policy.
despite all the fuss over certain
Interpretations which followed.
The reason why the squabble
is relatively unimportant is that
few people here seriously believe
chat the Russians would accept
Mr.. .Lloyd's suggested improve
rnents" as the basis for a set
tlement in Berlin, assuming the
allies could agree to offer them.
Not Taken Seriously
Russian Foreign Minister
.Gromyko has spoken at great
length, to be sure. about the
dire activities of Western in
telligence agents in the city.
.denouncing their subversive
sdoings as a major source Of
cold war tension. He has spoken
also Of the military threat
posed by some 10000 allied
troops in the city and inveighed
against the Indictment to acts
of sabotage, arson and poison-
ing Of livestock.
4 These charges. it's generally
..felt, are largely for outside
consumption. II Il not believed

ousiy. Or that any Western
gesture to reassure them that
these various alleged activities
would be reduced would inn
press them as valuable con-
cessions.
There is one exception which
Mr.. Gromyko has not mention
ed at all. Although the Rus
slams. naturally enough. are
not likely to bring up the
question Of the thousands Of
East German refugees that now
through West Berlin each year.
II Is quite certain that they
would dearly like to see the now
halted.
This. Of course, the allies are
not prepared to offer. The best
they might do is to meet Mr.,
Gromyko's indirect charge that
many Of these refugees are
being used as agents by turn
ing over the problem Of ham
ding them to the United Ma
tons. On the other hand. this
solution. which would give the
refugees an entirely new status
and focus the attention Of the
world community On the most
damning evidence Of Com

appeal much to Mr.. Gromyko.

point up the new impasse

larger vertical tanks would not
only be safer than a number of
smaller horizontal tanks be-
cause of the accident-ratio fac
