Tops in auto industry will meet
to ‘re-invent car* to conserve fuel
United Press International
DETROIT —* Transportation Secretary Brock Adams has called
hundreds of the nation’s top automotive experts to Boston this week
to begin an “all-out search” for a revolutionary, fuel-conserving car
for the 1990s.
The two-day conference, described by transportation officials as
the first of its kind, is intended to lay the technical groundwork for a
top level automotive summit meeting in Washington this spring.
Adams called for the summit during a recent Detroit speech in
which he accused the automakers of taking a “patchwork approach” to
improving fuel economy.
He hinted tough federal mandates for fuel economy through 1985
may be just the beginning and challanged the industry to “re-invent
the car” by the 1990s.
The auto companies have been relying mainly on downsizing and
weight reduction to meet federal mileage standards. Their work on
power sources has been largely limited to refinements of traditional
internal combustion engines.
Adams invited some 600 experts to the Boston meeting. They in
clude automotive and oil industry engineers and technicians, inde
pendent researchers, consumer advocates, environmentalists, gov
ernment officials and others.
He said objectives of the conference will be to come up with a pool
of technical options for automakers to choose from in designing cars
beyond 1985 with attention focused on “the need for a more fuel-
efficient and safe automobile.”
The conference will include panel discussions by experts on the
state of research on future engines, fuels and power train systems and
vehicle structures and materials.

Protest farmers fed
United Press International
WASHINGTON — Some of the
farmers who tied up Washington
traffic last week in their quest for
higher crop prices were invited to
dinner in local homes Sunday by
people interested in their problems.
The people-to-people program
was started by a Washington radio
station and both farmers and local
citizens responded in modest num
bers.
Jack Eden, garden editor of
WTOP-AM, told Sunday morning
listeners they could pick up dinner
guests on a local street corner if they
were interested in the farmers’
complaints.
About 100 of the more than 1,000
farmers who are in Washington for
the protest stood in line waiting for
invitations and many received
them.
Kyle Schartz, 17, of Great Bend,
Kan., tried to keep warm as he
waited for strangers fo drop by and
pick him up.
“I came down to eat,” he said.
“I’m starving.”
He and his family spent the week
in a trailer as part of the American
Agriculture Movement encamp-

ment on the snow-covered Mi
mile-long area between theCif
and the Washington Monun
surrounded by art galleries

Schartz said they would stay
long as it takes” to win congressit ahead of

farmers’ loans for their crops

“I’m just sympathetic with lb Carpel
