This is true of numerous items besides tires and it makes remote the likelihood of any major reduc tions in new car prices for the near future. More than a few industry sources a hd beeenex Unpeg lower prices had been expecting lower prices with the introduction of new mod els later this year. Some informed sources say there not only will be no price reduc tions during the remainder of this year but add that increases art wholly possible. The same sources say that oma current refinements may have to be taken off forthcoming models if present price levels art to be maintained. There hasn't been any complaint so far this year about anything having been left off new tars. Most car buyers have been so eag er to get new cars that extra equipment has been easy to sell. Delivered prices, too, seem to have been of less importance than when the car could be made available. 11.30 5.90 14.50 7.50 the way through! 4 Y V
