FROM PRESENT indications, the nation's car industry will continue to have a lot of unused production capacity for a long time, observes Dave Wilkie, dean of automotive editors. He points to the recent shelving, of both Ford's and General Motor's plans for light cars as one indication of the manufacturers' retrenchment from earlier plans. Automobile manufacturers have called upon 35,000 dealers to join in an intensive drive to increase the flow of scrap metal to steel mills and foundries. Already limited production will be further depressed unless there is a substantial increase in scrap metal collections. THE RUBBER Manufacturers Association believes many months of full production will be needed to fill dealers' shelves with new tires.

Inventories are at abnormally low levels, despite record production of passenger car tires. Directors of Willy Overland Motors. have been told that the outlook for some automotive materials is becoming somewhat optimistic. The OPA announced that no increase in present copper prices is planned "in the foreseeable future." The statement was made to discourage any future withholding of copper or copper scrap in anticipation of a price rise. RUBBER PRODUCERS in Ceylon were greatly disappointed by the announcement that the price of rubber during October would be 71 cents a pound, a drop of 29 cents from the current price of one rupee.

The WAA announced an Intensified $16,000,000 advertising program to speed up surplus property disposal. Henry J. Kaiser announced he would continue to fight for a reduction in the Government loan on his Fontana Steel Plant and would seek an additional development loan for more steel for the West Coast.
