disagree on feasibility of U. 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 »|:

tigation.”
