Vi VAtiK. KOI IR MARKETS AND FINANCE Kaiser To Build Cars In Argentina ' BUENOS AIRES, Argentina I '-Henry J. Kaiser signed a contract early Tuesday to manufacture cars, ' trucks and jeeps in Argentina in 'partnership with President Juan D. Feron'8 government. i ' The U. 8. industrialist will invest 'r 10 million dollars worth of mach ., ' inery, representing about one-third of the capital, in the new company , .He . will manage the mnnuinctur lng lor the new company, to be owned by himself, the Argentine government and Argentine private jnvestoi'B. . The' agreement culminated two j months of 'negotiations. It was to " have been signed Monday after noon but last-minute details de delayed the ceremony until after midnight. For Kaiser, the deal permits , nlm. to manufacture automotive qtiipment in Argentina --'starved !. for cars and trucks 'and with j machinery he owns in the United States. This machinery Is useless to him there, where the auto mark et Is oveisupplicd and the Independ ents are being squeezed by Ford and General Motors. For Peron, the agreement repre sents the first big Industrial In vestment under, his plan to attract foreign capital, making Argentina Industrially self-sufficient and aid the nation's lagging economy. Kaiser's goal is to produce 40,000 units annually in Argentina. He promised to build the plant in one year, start turning out motor cars by the end of the second year and reach full production in three years. Although machinery now In the United States is to be used here, Kaiser's son Edgar said that did not mean operations would be dis continued at the Kaiser - Fraser plant In Toledo, Ohio. Kaiser hopes to establish automobile plants In , other Latin American countries, particularly Brazil and Colombia, using equipment not needed now in the United States.

Shippers Hit Unfair Haul btAtTLE Wi Seattle and Portland shippers are protesting wnat Ihev call "unfair" diversion oi pacific Northwest camw hv trans-p a c I f I c steamship com panies working out of San Fran cisco. The complaints against steam ship companies of the Westbound Conference by Port of Seattle and Portland Commissions' of Docks were mado at opening of a hear ing here Monday bv the Federal Maritime Board. The hearing con tinued Tuesday. ; Complaints say conference firms absorb the longer haul rail freight costs in moving products from the Pacilic Northwest to San Francis co for trans-Paclllc shipment. And that's "unfair," they contend. Joseph J. Usher, Port of Seat tle's traffic manager, told the board that 78.000 boxes of apples most of them grown in Wash ington and Oregon were shipped to the Far East Inst year mostly from San Francisco. Tile figure compares with only 15,000 boxes shipped from Oregon and 5.840 from Washington ports, he snid.

Radford said Tuesday the United States must put in creased reliance on ready to - use military power because "the So viets have indicated a willingness to employ any and all means to achieve theic objectives." Radford, chairman of the Joint chiefs of staff, said Russian pos session of nuclear weapons and modern alrpower makes it impos sible tor the United States to enjoy what he termed the luxury of get llng ready for war alter an attack on this nation or its allies. In a speech prepared for the Texas Mid-Conllneni Oil and Gas Assn., the admiral cautioned this nation against bene misled by any short-term maneuvers on the part of the Russians. He said: "A temporary defense effort geared to some current phase of the world situation would place our survival at the mercy ot a foreign dictator, one who can raise and lower at will the international ten sions and temperatures."
