adequate highways and rapid
transit and erection Of shop
ping centers are cited as prin-
cipal causes" it said.
"Other considerations are
the increasing vacancy rate in
older units, increasing land
costs making it not feasible to
maintain low-rent substand-
ard structures and higher hous-
ing standards and better code
enforcement"
The home builders projected
the market in the 1960-69 span
at Is million dwelling units, of
which AS million already have
been put up.
Ten million of the total was
attributed to new household
formations.
In the remaining years of the

There are three basic courses,

The communications course

radar equipment, 1t also pre-
pares him to obtain a first

NEW YORK (AP).-About
one dwelling unit will be torn
down, otherwise destroyed or
abandoned for every three new
ones built in the 1960S, a
builders group estimates.
The National Association of
Home Builders, in sizing up
housing prospects for the years
ahead, said met loss from the
housing inventory" is expected
to be the second largest single
source Of demand.
It's influence on the hous-
ing market will be exceeded
only by the increase in new
households generated by ris-
ing population, the organiza-
ton said.
In the 1940s, dwelling units
were removed from the Ma
tons stock by demolition at a
rate of about 100000 q year,
and this doubled in the l950s.

The National Radio Institute
Is the brainchild of James e.
Smith, a native of New Hamp-
shire and 1906 graduate of
Worcester Polytechnic institute,
who came here in 1907 to teach
steam engineering and applied
electricity at Mckinley Techni-
cal High School.
Mr.. Smith introduced radio
as part of his course at McKin-
ley Tech in 1909 and the study
of wireless throughout the
Washington high schools in,
1912. During World War I he
supervise d Army classes In
wireless and was the co-inven-
tor of the natrometer, an in
strument used in teaching ra-
dio code.
In 1914 he organized the Ma
tional Radio School but con-
tinued teaching at Mckinley
until 1918. In 1920 the radio
school was incorporated and
its name changed to National
Radio Institute. Mr.. Smith was
president from that time until
1856 when he became chair
man of the board and his son.

A 49-year-old Washington
correspondence school thinks
1t can help the public schools
to curb their dropout problem.
The school is the National
Radio Institute which since II
was founded in 1914 has always
taught its students by mail
Now it is also reaching out into
the schools to supply interested
shop teachers with lesson ma
terials and kits to help them
teach all kinds of electronics
subjects to their pupils.
Because electronics is play
ing a growing part in the mod
ern world, the institute believes
it can do a real service in this
respect. 1t says that an hour
a day for two years devoted to
studying the operation and re-
pair of electronics equipment
will give a high school pupil
enough fundamentals to make
him employable. More ad-
vanced courses take more time.

Slow Output
OF "a Autos
BY CHARLES C. CAIN
AP Automotive Writer

DETROIT. - The United
States auto industry stepped
up its production wheels this
week with all but General Mo-
tors turning out 1864 models.
GIN will begin 1864 output next
Tuesday.
Chrysler. the first company
to start 1864 production and
the first one to introduce its
new cars to the public (Sept.
20) accounted for 1880 cars
last week out Of the industry
total of 1872.
Ford began output Of the "a
Thunderbirds and Lincoln
Continent-ls at its Wixom.
Mich. plant last week, but some
other Ford production picture
was clouded by a strike-set-
tied late last week-at its key
Chicago Heights, III. stamping
plant.
$4,000 Laid Off
Ford laid off nearly $4,000
workers as the interruption of
the flow of parts from Chicago
threw its early 1864 production
line schedules off balance. Ford
management was busy over the
week end revising its schedules
following settlement Of the dis
pute.
American Motors which end
ed its second week Of "a pro-
duction last week also had la
Dor troubles. Milwaukee body
plant workers walked off the
Job one day in an unauthorized
work stoppage. On two other
days, production schedules at
AMC were disrupted by what
the firm called production diff
ficulties.
The company announced
later that additional manpower
will be added and manpower
distributions will be changed
at the Milwaukee plant.
Strike Threat Passes
Shortly before the announce
ment, a union official said that
the threat Of a strike at the
plant has passed, at least tenn
porarily.
The company announcement,
authorized by William F.
Poupard, work manager at the
Milwaukee plant, said there
had been normal new model
start-up problems and a dis
agreement between the COM
pany and the United Auto
Workers as to manpower re-
quired to meet the schedule. ="
He added:
THE company and the union
executive board have been
engaged in intensive meetings
to clarity the facts and resolve
the differences. AS a result
Of the current startup ex-
perience and our meetings, the
company has decided to add
additional manpower and make
some changes in manpower
distributions"
Automotive News said that
auto production last week was
1872 units bringing the indus
try total thus far in calendar
1868 to 07.643 units. CON-
pared with 4,375.2S7 at the
similar date In 1862.
