...DaimlerChrysler subsidiary that assembles the Smart Car, has taken that idea further than any other company. Its plant in Hambach, France, is really seven separate factories, each occupied by a different systems partner. The chassis is shuffled off to a subfactory run by the German firm of Krupp Hoesch Automotive, where the power module is installed. Bosch plunks down the front end, which includes the cooler, headlights and crash box. German plastics, chemical and industrial-ceramics company Dynamit Nobel snaps on plastic body panels and the whole vehicle is done in four hours--down from...

...howl went up in West Germany, Russia's No. 1 oil-pipe supplier (633,000 tons from 1959 through last October). Just three and a half months ago, three giant Ruhr firms-Mannesmann, Phoenix-Rheinrohr AG, and Hoesch-signed a contract for another 200,000 tons. Ruhr steelmen denounced Chancellor Konrad Adenauer as a NATO stooge for trying to enforce the new rules.
