By DAVID J. WILKIE
DETROIT Hi The bigaest sell
ing job the u'.o industry has
known lies immediately ahead o!
the new car retailers; it cuniem
plates the retail delivery of llj
million or more 1955 model cars
jn the nest 10 to 12 weeks.'
Of the cars to be sold, some
thing like three-quarters of a mil
lion currently are in dealer in-
Federal Highway
Funds To Go To
Northwest Jobs
WASHINGTON Ifl The Pacific
Northwest will receive $35,732,521
of the 875 million dollars in federal-aid
highway money the fed
eral government is dividing among
the 8 states.
The Commerce Department an
nounced Tuesday Washington will
set $14,093,430 of the total. Oregon
il2.9W.044, and Idaho $8,128,047
lor the fiscal . year beginning
July 1. ,

ventories. At least as many more
are scheduled lor production be
fore the factories are fully con
verted to 1956 model assembly.
Optimistic industry experts are
saying most ol these cars will be
sold before new models appear;
they agree profit margins on most
sucn sales will be unusually slim.
Less optimistic authorities say
there will be many "new" 1955
model cars on sale by used car
dealers for months after the 1956
models appear. That means many
retailers may clear out their cur
rent model inventories by selling
cars, at cost or less to retailers
whose chief business is the sale of
second hand vehicles. '
Generally the new car retailers
will have from now through most
of September to clean out their
outKOing mouel inventories. Most
General Motors and Chrysler 19a6
lines are scheduled for October
and early November introduction.
Ford and Mercury cars are ex
pected in the showrooms several
weeks ahead of Chevrolet. Ford is
trying to whittle down a produc
tion lead of some 80.000 cars held
by Chevrolet.
Tile new models are scheduled
for introduction four weeks and
more ahead of any previous' new
date. It has been suggested in
some quarters the switchover to
new models was set ahead so that
new car retailers could get their
tales campaigns started betore
normal Chrisunas buying flattens
too many purses.
The first 1956 model to go ou sale
this vear should be Ford's im
proved Lincoln. It Is expected
tarly in September.
