DETROIT (IP) The Ford Motor Co. yesterday showed its 1946 model Ford, Lincoln and Mercury cars to a delegation of 33 governors in Detroit en route to the conference at Mackinac Island.

This was the first public showing of new Ford cars which are to be manufactured after July 1. Details of the new Ford de luxe, which also has design changes, were announced recently. The new Mercury and Lincoln cars are featured by new front end design, chiefly in the treatment of the radiator grill. On the Lincoln a double grill effect has been achieved with the upper being of curved design and the lower straight across the front end. Similarly In the Mercury the noticeable changes are in the front grill aa well as In instrument board design.

From Henry Ford II, executive vice president of the company, the governors heard the statement that unless the company's production quota of new cars for the remainder of 1945 can be sharply increased "we are going to have to lay off about 50.000 to 60.000 people." Ford said that the company's first aim was the production of material for the prosecution of the war against Japan but that he thought that both this and peacetime production can be handled. He praised the efforts of the San Francisco conference and the part President Truman took in it. DSR Board Rejects Detroit Dream Road DETROIT (UP) A $240,000,000 transportation "dream' scheduled for Detroit's postwar period had gone up in smoke today as the transportation board definitely de cided to abandon its crosstown rapid transit plans. Board members ignored advice of New York and Chicago experts, who were paid $48,000 to provide an over-all transportation recommendation of roads and transit systems. They said, however, they would ask for additional width In the pro posed crosstown right-of-way, providing the state and federal governments would pay the greater part of the cost.

Samuel T. Gilbert, president of the DSR commission, said board members could not see where the proposed Warren-McGraw expressway and rapid transit system, which was to be the heart of Detroit's mass transportation, was Justified. Gilbert said the board instead approved resolutions to name a committee to plead with state and federal officials for a roadway at least 371 feet wide. The space would provide three traffic lanes in both directions, and a 46-foot center mall, plus sloping The board estimated cost of an extra mall at approximately $60,000 to the city, or about one-sixth of the total cost. Together, the mall and a crosstown expressway, minus the rapid transit, was estimated at $37,576,000.

WA8HINOT0N Congre found Itself today in lu usual fiscal year-end appropriation loe. Jam. Tied-up in the senate, the house or in conference between the two were four big supply bills involving approximately And unless at least one becomes law by midnight, a score or more of government activities technically Kill have no operating funds.

Most important, and least con troversial, of the four measures hanging fire the $38,620,904,581 army supply bill. It finances the activities of the war department during the 1948 fiscal year starting at midnight. It is awaiting senate action on a conference recommendation approved yesterday by the house. The other three bills snagged are the $1,100,738,922 labor-federal security agency appropriation bill: the $3,634,044,236 second deficiency appropriation measure carrying lend-lease funds, and the war agencies supply bill, financing home-front war activities. The house already has completed action on the labor-federal security measure and prompt senate concurrence was expected.

The senate has not yet acted on the second deficiency bill which the house passed early this week. Neither has It acted on the war agencies bill, which has been held up by a filibuster over efforts to provide house-denied funds for the Fair Employment Practice Committee. Should the senate finally vote the FEPC some money to keep that agency alive after midnight, the bill laces a filibuster in the house. The key to the appropriation puzzle lies in the second deficiency supply bill, which contains a section authorizing any federal agency whose regular funds are not provided by law by midnight to continue business in anticipation of the funds provided in the pending bills. Because of this section, congressional leaders were anxious to speed the measure to President Truman as quickly aa possible.

The funds In the pending bills irtll boost to approximately the new money voted by the 79th congress. This compares with an estimated $67,000,000,000 appropriated during the first six months of 1944.
