Car Industry Faces War-Adjusted Vehicle Outlook
Industrial leaders discuss postwar auto production and prices. Mr Bleck cites higher material and labor costs and lower efficiency as key factors. Predictions place 1947 output around 4,000,000 cars with 2,250,000 built in 1946. Comanche county sold 745 cars from that total. Truck and commercial car production expected near 1,000,000 in 1947 and 940,000 in 1948. Dealers face merchandising challenges while used car markets remain jittery amid postwar price gaps. New member introductions and chamber activities are noted, with a Community Chest meeting and a Cameron College banquet scheduled.
