Again, Houdaille is a good example of this. Until the Big Three have a chance to catch up, some- thing should be done to limit the number of imported automobiles coming into this country and the United States and those allowed into the North American market should be required to pay a higher tax on these imports. This would make them look a little less attractive to the new car buyer. Once the North American auto industry has had a chance to catch up, Toyota, Datsun and other big selling foreign car companies should be required to open plants here, requring 75 per cent North American content of auto, parts, etc. This would create jobs for North American workers at competitive wages. The increased competition would also help in keeping the American auto companies on their toes. As U.A.W. Presi- dent Douglas Fraser has EAT Cr Ts i TN Ee stated, "they would be encouraged to improve small car quality in terms of design, engineering, work- manship and service." Massive lay-offs in the automotive industry will eventually, if not already, hurt the entire economy. Yours truly, Rick McEachern, G.M.C. Zone Committeeman Local 222, U.A.W.
