'AS 1942 MODELS
Only Minor Changes Ex-
L pected Due to War Effort
'Car of Future' Delayed
By Anthony G. D Lorenso
United Press Conference
Detroit 0J.PJ Americans who
expect the automotive Industry
to suddW them with ultra-
streamlined passenger cart Im
mediately after the war Is over
are in for a surprise.
The industry, bending its back
to help win the war as quickly
at possible, believes, the lirsi
nost-war car will be virtually
the same as the 1942 model with
oocsiblv a few minor changes.
The motoring public probably
will have to wait a year or more
after the war it over for the so
called "car of the future", be
cause the industry's designers
and engineers are knee-deep In
"model changes" lor war proa
ucts.
c. E. Wilson, president of
General Motors Corp., in peace
time the industry's largest pro
ducer of passenger cars, de
clared recently that if any com
pany turns out a "radically-different
car immediately after the
war Is over "then it hat been
cheating a little on Its war pro-
cram.
Better Cars Later
"The post-war car," Wilson
said, "will be substantially the
same as the one bought prior to
Pearl Harbor, with perhaps a
different color scheme or some
minor change."
George T. Christopher, presi
dent of the Packard Motor Car
Co. long a supplier of automo
biles for the "carriage trade"
agrees with Wilson that the Im
mediate post-war car will be vir
tually unchanged from present
new models.
However, he explained the ln
dustrv's experience with new
materials and technique on the
war program would contribute

toward "mora efficient, more
economical and bcttsr motor ear
transportation lr the years to
follow the war."
Cost of an aircraft engine.
Christopher said. Is "about 10
a pound" while the cost of the
average car it only 32 cent a
pound.
How many oi in elements
that make up the $10 pound
aircraft engine, Incorporated in
the car of the future will the
public buy?" he asked. The
motor buying public can only
answer that one. Here again
we run into post-war economy,
income, taxes, living cost and
general economic conditions
that will follow the war are
still unknown factors."
Silver Improves Engines
Availability of materials and
fuel. Christopher added, also
will have "a marked bearing
on the car of the future.
Materials have been brought
into new practices in war work
and their adoption to the auto
mobile may bring about interest
ing results, he said, -silver, tor
example, never used before in
automobiles, is contriDuung w
major engine lmporvements."
The silver connecting rod In
the Packard-built Rolls-Royce
aircraft engine, Christopher ex
plained, "takes more stress than
all corresponding bearings In an
8-cyllnder car engine" In the
post-war automobile.
Although the first cars after
the war may be unchanged, de
signers long have toyed with
super-streamlined models hav
ing aero-dynamic properties. In
many of these "dream" cars the
engine and the luggage com
partment have exchanged places
with the former behind the rear
teat.
WELCOMES FLIERS

Higher Civilization
Than Ever Imagined
Expected After War
Austin, Tex. (U.R) A higher
civilization than most persons
ever imagined tt possible lor
Americans after the present
war because of Industrial ad
vancement. Dr. Clarence A.
Ayres, professor of economics
at the University of Texas, be
lieves.
Dr. Ayres opposes the opinion
of those who think the United
States has reached an industrial
peak. And those who predict
that future generations will be
poor because of the heavy debts
Incurred during the war.
"We have been successful In
building industrial sinews, but
not so successful in using them,"
Dr. Ayres said. "I do not be
lieve we will emerge from this
crisis until a better distribution
of wealth is brought about. We
are going to have to live much
better than before if we are to
absorb the products of this new
industral equipment.
The professor predicted that
the post-war world will find the
airplane used as much as the
automobile for trips away from
home, and that plastics, tech
nology and new method of food
preparation will change radical
ly the average citizen's way of
living.
"It will seem utterly old
fashioned to drive from Austin
to Dallas (200) miles, when an
airplane will take you there In
50 minutes," Dr. Ayres said.
