Auto firms cut output amid steel rationing
By Associated Press Detroit May 8 The latest steel cutback hits passenger car and station wagon production with a new five percent reduction starting June 1. Manufacturers may use no more than 75 percent of the volume used in the first half of 1950. Concerns arise over possible civilian car quotas, echoing 1941 wartime limits. Auto factories have built 2,196,637 passenger cars and 537,115 trucks this year, with 113,343 cars and 30,594 trucks attributed to this week’s output. Some makers, mainly smaller firms, have halted output due to material controls, Kaiser-Frazer among them, which has halved production and now begins a two-week shutdown of car assembly lines on Monday.

Judge Blasts Assessment in Erie Case Over State Street Store
In Erie on May 5 a county court opinion ordered further hearing on an assessment appeal by the Kresge Co and the Kline family against the city’s $471 280 valuation for 902-08 State street. Judge Elmer L Evans held that location earnings uses and future market value must be weighed, noting that assessments must align with similar nearby properties. The appeal seeks $398 484, with city assessor George Leach admitting no nearby comparisons were used. A second item reports a three year old Freddie Hockenbeery and his brother Charles Jr, playing with a rifle. Charles was shot in the abdomen and in critical condition at Altoona Hospital after the gun discharged amid play.
