Decline Predicted In 1950 Auto Sales Commerce Department expects drop of 10 to 20 per cent below 1949, saying last year's record production not likely to be matched in next few years.

Washington, Jan. 8 UP) The Commerce Department predicted today auto makers' sales this year will drop 10 to 20 percent below 1949. Declaring last year's all-time production record of 6,200,000 vehicles is "unlikely to be equalled in the next few years," the department report said: "Factory sales of motor vehicles in 1950 are estimated at from 5,000,000. to 5,500,000 Units, a decrease of 10 to 20 percent below 1949, bul about equal to 1929 and 1948 production the only other years when the 5,000,000 figure was reached. "Sufficient orders are on hand to maintain production during the first six months of 1950 at the high levels attained during the last half of 1949.

Heavy purchases of cars will take place, as in prewar years, in the spring and summer. Factory sales of lower priced passenger cars will probably expand due to increased The' auto industry, which has the biggest dollar volume of sales of any manufacturing industry (the department estimated them at over $10,000,000,000 in 1949, wholesale value), is a major weight in the economy.
