nadian cars to be reduced and because of the industry's com- petitive position, it was reason- ably certain these savings would be passed on to buyers.

Mr. Macinnis also asked whether the $50,000,000 saved by the Canadian manufacturers in customs tariffs under the agree- ment would be used to pay the salaries of the 1,600 ford workers to be laid off in Windsor, Ont.

Mr. Drury said reports that 1,600 would be laid off are pre-| mature. There would be some temporary layoffs but the extent of them is not yet known .
