On October 31 of last year, Henry Ford
cmnoiinced his intention to build a million
Ford V-8s in 1935. We are pleased to re
port that this goal was reached in exactly
ten months instead of a full year.
One million cars and trucks is cm im
pressive total. But figures by themselves
mean nothing. It is what they represent
that counts. Selling a V-8 at a low price
has brought a new kind of automobile
within reach of the people. Producing it
has provided steady work for himdreds
of thou;>ands of men in the Ford plants, in
associated industries and on the farm.
These million Ford V-8 cars and trucks
have helped to make things better all
around. In the first ten months of 1935 the
Ford Motor Company paid out. in the
United States alone. $140,119,326.00 in
wages and $523,111,389.00 for materials.
