automobiles will roll off assembly
lincs a little faster next' year but
1 not fast enough to balance output
! and demand by the year's end.
That's the conviction of most of
the Industry's chroniclers and top
1 level executives In the low and me
dium price fields. Generally they
see a moderate leveling off in the
demand for higher-priced cars and
j for the heavyweight commercial
! vehicles.
But against Urn they explain tint
Increasing demand for vehicles in
the other groupings will more than
balance whatever tapering off may

Not Worried
The car manufacturers are not

Chiang ordered severe punish-

Even pro-government sources

Liaoning area where fighting has
been the heaviest.
The official Central News agency

seven miles north of the city and

Protests CAB Rule
JUNEAU, Alaska, Dec. 27 tPl
Territorial Atty. Gen. Ralph Rivers
said today he had filed a protest
with the civil aeronautics board in
Washington, D. C. against a pro

lations seeking to place charter air
cargo planes between the United
States and Alaska on regular sched

cargo planes to carry passengers,
thus increasing the territory's pas

Increase Story
A task ahead of the Industry tor
the coming year Is to better con
vince Its public that while retail
prices have advanced steadily since
the war the increases have not been
out of line with the upward move
ment In other commodities.
For whatever It may be worth In
this connection the Automobile
Manufacturers' association In Its
current Issue of "Automobile
Facts'' notes that In the United
Stales the average car costs 47
cents a pound. England, it adds,
"has traded 600 tons of automobiles
and 7300 tons of Argentine beef
indicating that British cars cost
more than meat."
This week's operations in the in

j Waterfront
! Strike Looms
SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 27 i.-P
Refusal of CIO longshoremen to
handle cargo bound for countries
where workers are struggling against
'reactionary employers, landlords
and governments" was declared
quite likely today by Harry
Bridges, head of the Longshoremen's
and Warehousemen's union.
He said his union expected de
mands from overseas workers that
they refuse to load arms and other
materials for nations such as France.
Italy and Greece.
In 1938 and 1939 the longshoremen
refused to load scrap Iron for Japan
until ordered to do so by Wayne
Morse, present republican senator
from Oregon, who was waterfront
arbitrator for the West Coast.
Bridges said four union members
were being sent to Europe for "some
first hand, real lowdown dope on
what's cooking In many foreign
countries."
It is probable, too, he added in
his column In the union's official
newspaper, that the longshoremen
will have to strike June 15 "to pre
serve the hiring hall.''

Snow Hampers
Fire Fighters
By The Associated Pres
Spectacular fires broke out In
snow-covered Portland, Me., and in
Philadelphia and York, Pa., today
as New York city, its street clogged
with 25.8 inches of snow, faced what
fire officials called the "gravest
emergency" In the lire department's
history.
Portland firemen, hampered by a
northeast storm, were fighting a
blaze which destroyed the Union
wharf coal plant, when a second
fire swept through a big empty
stockyard building in the freight
yard of the Grand Trunk railway.
A 400-ton loading tower toppled
into fiery pieces upon five fisnlng
boats moored near the coal wharf.
Damage was estimated at about
$225,000.
In Philadelphia, a pre-dawn fire
destroyed the Interior of a five-story
warehouse.
At York, the lumber yard of the
Home Furniture company was de-'
stroyed, causing damage unofficially
estimated at 1100,000.
