DETROIT, February 19. — Halfway | through the first quarter of 1931, ,the | sutomobile industry still is laboring up- grade in_what might be called second . The level that will permit a shift to high-speed operation appar- ently still is somewhat distant | Nevertheless, there is no lack of op- timism among automobile executives| They point to upward revisions in pro- duction schedules by several of the in- dustry’s important units. In no case, they say, has there been speculation regarding demand. Dealer demand | alone has inspired the stepping up of production. | While this increase in scheduled out- | ut has been more or less spotty, the| act that it is based almest entirely upon assured demand has been regard- ed as particularly encouraging. Will Avoid Mistakes. | Although sharing all the enthusiasm and much of the optimism the new year | brought to the industry, the conserva-| tives among motor car manufacturers | are pointing out that some of the hopes for the first quarter are beyond all| possibility. | The total output for the vear, these| will aggregate between LIVING ROOM GROUPS Famous Karpen Guaranteed Construction featured at unusually low prices in THE FEBRUARY SALE OF LIEETIME FURNITURE Slip Sale These covers evils that brought on the crash of 16 months ago. Chifef of these, of course, was the race for a production record, while the merchandising outlets were felt to shift for themselves, finally breaking down under a deluge of cars they could not sell. A reorganization of merchandising outlets was one of the major problems | the industry had to work out. Much has been done in this direction, but there still remain some weaknesses that need to be overcome. Most of these can only be strengthened as the market | for motor vehicles opens up. Ford's Schedule. ‘The Ford Motor Co. schedule for February calls for 75,000 cars, and in March it expects to produce 80,000 units. It is estimated in authoritative quarters that stocks of unsold Ford cars during the last nine weeks, during which period the company has been either closed for inventory or working on a three-day schedule, have been reduced from 105,000 to 60,000. Rapid progress is being made on the Grand Rapids plant of the new Devaux- Hall Motor Co. Conveyors and machin- ery already are being installed in the former Hayes Body Co. plant taken over by the new company. The plant is ex- pected to be in production next month.
