Full-dress debate, such as last week's in the Senate, is almost as empty of reality as the cook books and tracts that filibusterers read into the Congressional Record. Even as a powerhouse of arguments, this Congressional debate was of little or no importance.

But the close of the 1939 automobile year on September 30 showed: 1) profits up moderately; 2) total production of 3,587,000 units (4th best year since 1929) up 33% over 1938; 3) new car stocks not over 147,000 units-within 2% of their historic 1938 Sept...
