Two Year Car Shortage Seen By Local Dealer
H C Dorman of Athens automaker distributor warned at the Rotary Club that it will be at least two years before customers can custom order new cars. Only three of 10 orders can be filled this year due to demand outstripping supply, material shortages, and labor disputes. He said dealers are forbidden to push accessories or resell new cars to used dealers, and noted city buyers often use private owners to move stock at profit. Farmers keep cars longer, averaging 14 years versus about 10 for city owners. A second speaker, Josef J. Richards of the VA training facilities, spoke for National Employ the Physically Handicapped Week.
