Henry Ford Keeps
Older Men On Jobs
The following story has been re
leased by the Associated Press:
Henry Ford doubts that there
are "enough brains under SO
(years of age) to supply the man
agement needed in industry."
He said so today in a state
ment endorsing President Roose
velt's National Employment Week
proclamation, particularly the ap
peal for jobs for men more than
40 years of age. The proclamation
fixed the first week in May as
National Employment Week.
"My own opinion is that men
do not tome to full usefulness un
til they are 40," said Mr. Ford,
who despite his advanced years
has no intention of "retiring."
"For years," he added, "1 have
advocated the employment of men
over 40 becau.se their experience,
steadiness and judgment are ab
solutely necessary to the best suc
cess of industry."
Mr. Ford said that of. the 85,
967 Ford workers in the Detroit
area 37,433 are more than 40 years
old. The oldest employee, he said,
is 87 and was hired at . 70. .
"I still have the first man I
ever hired that was before 1 was
married and before I was in busi
ness," Mr. Ford went on. "He
worked with me on a little saw
mill, and he still is working with
me. I don't believe in retiring men
for age. 1 believe the longer they
work, the longer they live."
Mr. Ford was almost 40 yeans
old when he founded the small
automobile business that developed
into his present great industrial
empire.
v The Ford Company has no old
age retirement rule. v
The Highway Safety Division
has revoked 27,367 North Caro
lina drivers' licenses since 1935.
