PLANNING FOR
AUTO OUTPUT

auto industry has been ibout 4,

v Individual Quotas
Individual manufacturers will
be assigned quotas, which Nelson
promised would be announced
well before July 1." Quotas
will be based approximately on
1941 production with allowances
made for smaller manufacturers.
Nelson said.
The first new cars will go to
"essential users." Nelson said
the office of price administra
tion had decided that rationing
of new cars would continue until
such users' needs had been met.
He said he personally felt that
car rationing could be ended by
January 1.

demand. Some United States
delegates- like the compromise
idea, but say that in view of com
mitments already made to Rus
sia at Yalta they can not press
it. Russia has been standing
firm on the Yalta formula which
provides that any one of the big
powers can "veto" a council de
cision to take action.
Last night a committee of
United States, Russian. British
and Chinese officials drafted a
statement in reply to small na
tion questions about this for
mula. This statement promises
that any nation, great or small,
may bring a dispute before the
security council and that the
council may discuss it, without
taking a vote. Thus the veto
could not be used to prevent the
airing of charges and counter
charges. Tokyo Tries Tc
Pacify Soviets
SAN FRANCISCO, May 23
(IP) A Tokyo broadcast declar
ed today there was "no reason"
for Russia to "engage in war
with Japan" and also said that
if Japan should - desire peace
with Britain and the United
States, her proposals possibly
would be made through the
USSR.
The broadcast, intended for
Japanese in American areas and
recorded by the federal com
munications commission, assert
ed that although "Britain and
America are doing all they can
to drag' Russia in, Russia needs
to reconstruct first of all and
there is no reason for her to
throw away this opportunity
by engaging inwar with Japan.
