Steel Buyers

CLEVELAND, Feb. 6 (AP).-
Steel magazine says the reduc-

parently has ended.
The Woodworking weekly re-
ported that for the first time
this year its quarterly survey
Of metals buyers shows an in
crease in the number Of pur-
chasing agents reporting in
ventory building plans. The
number expecting further re-
ductions fell to the lowest level
in a year, it added.
"Two-thirds of the buyers of

the magazine said. But over
stocks, still plaguing 16 per
cent of the respondents. are at
the lowest point since strike

Better weather will stimulate
building, work on farms and
railroad maintenance and any
expansion in construction will
accelerate demand for steel,
the publication said.
Sales executives who 10 days
ago were talking hopefully
about small gains in steel buy
ing this month "have changed
their tune" it added.

Auto Sales Tired of Winter Too
By CHARLES YARBRoUGH

The week ends announce
ment that the auto industry will
hand layoff orders to about
10000 workers as a result of
production cuts, deepenS the
gloom in the business.
But there is hardly an expert
in the country who wouldn't
put weather high in the list of
reasons why there were over q
million unsold, 1861 autos on
hand as of January 20. Few
people go beyond the thinking
stage of buying a new car in the
middle Of a winter such as this
one.
Obviously, both the manufac-
turer and the dealer are not
keen about general price cut
ting, such as two Of the inn
ported car builders have an
nounced.
RENAULT led off with q
sharp reduction two weeks ago.
Last week. the British RO0tes
MOtOrs-builders Of the Hillman

YOUR
MONEYS WORTH
'Coveot Venditor'!
~ SYLVIA PORTER

lof its policy declaration, I
called on Gus editorial direc-
tor. Mildred Brady, for details.
The approach is not as radi-
cal reversal or as great an
innovation as you might sus-
pect, she emphasized.
The principle Of full disclo-
sure has been accepted for
some time in the food and
drug industries. Current law
requires that labels declare in
gradients in food and warn
against possible damage in
proprietary medicines. In its
last session Congress passed q
hazardous substances bill re-
quiring full warnings on labels
Of potentially poisonous prod
ucts.
Principle Recognized
AS for our courts, they've
long recognized the caveat ven-
ditor principle. In 1915, in q
New York case Judge Cardoza
laid down the principle of O
sellers liability by stating that
a manufacturer placing q car
on the market assumed o re-
sponsibility to the consumer
arising out Of the consumers
purchase. AS recently as this
past August. a New Jersey Su-
.preme Court decision reinforced
the judgment. declared there
is a trend and design in legis-
lative. and judicial thinking
toward providing protection for
the buyer"
What caveat venditor would
mean in the marketplace now
lis an extension of the prin-
ciple, a legal enforcement Of
the sellers responsibility to the
buyer" Mrs. Brady explained.
1t would mean, for instance,
that sellers would be required
to disclose in full all informa-
ton about prices and qualities
Of goods. and this information
would have the status Of q war
ranty.
1t would mean that the bur-
den Of proof Of compliance
with the laws on honest and
full disclosure would rest on
the sellers.
OF course. none Of this will
h Happen overnight. but the
trend is obvious. Not too many
years from now, I think you'll
wonder how it could be that
caveat venditor was news in
the presumably civilized econ
omy and marketplace of the
United States in 1861.
