...shut down its St. Louis assembly plant for a week. Beleaguered American Motors, which suffered a 17.4% sales loss last year and is off to a slow start with its restyled 1967 models, this week will close its Milwaukee and Kenosha, Wis., plants for ten days, after that will lay off 4,100 workers...
