S. plan United Press International WASHINGTON — The maker of Datsun, the No. 2-selling imported car in the United States, testified Wednesday it would be too much of an economic risk to build an assem bly plant in the United States. But a Toyota official said his company is considering such a move. In testimony before Congress’ Joint Economic Committee on what, if anything, ought to be done about the rising share — 22 percent — of the U.S. auto market being taken by the Japanese, Toyota and Nissan Motor Corp. (Datsun) officials strongly opposed legislation that would limit their imports. “If Congress were to authorize such quotas, others nations could be freed from their obligations (under existing trade treaties) and* the end result might very well be some form of retaliation and a dangerous disrup tion of international trade, ” said Nor man Lean, senior vice president of Toyota sales in America. The legislation proposed by the United Auto Workers, he said, is drawn so that it would discriminate against only Toyota and Nissan, the two top exporters. UAW President Douglas Fraser said the Japanese should decide to build cars in America or their "con tinued unfair exploitation could well result in an overreaction of protec tionism.” But Yasuhiko Suzuki, vice presi dent of external relations for Nissan USA, said investing $300 to $400 million in a U.S. auto plant now is “extremely risky ” because of the dol lar’s strong position against the yen and because by the time American- made Datsuns were built, the Big Three U.S. auto makers will have recovered from their current slump and will out-compe| e jl cars. j;I Lean, however, sajj'; the question ofaU,S »|: very serious r J “ ^ tigation.” The administratinj announced its op limitations, saying States imposed I 200,000 unemployed[k| workers would get LiL 6 Closet warmo It is now possi dyer Bring us your tired... your scratched...your worn-out speakers, and Dyer will give you UP TO 100% of the original purchase price in trade on any new pair of famous name-brand speakers in stock.
