( i ""imi tesseu J jtz: it r : : : - j The low-priced automobile ha$ brought greater opportunity and added hour of recreation to milliom of men and women. B ECAUSE the automobile is such an im portant factor in the lives and pros perity of so many people, the purpose of the Ford Motor Company is something more than the mere manufacture of a motorcar. There is no service in simply setting up a machine or a plant and letting it turn out goods. The service extends into every detail of the business design, production, the wages paid and the sell ing price. All are a part of the plan. The Ford Motor Company foots upon itself as charged with , making an auto mobile that will meet the needs of millions of people and to provide it at a low price. That is its mission. That is its duty and its obligation to the public. The search for better ways of doing things is never-ending. There is cease less, untiring effort to find new methods and new machines that will save steps and time in manufacturing. The Ford plants are,' in reality, a great mechanical uni versity, dedicated to the advancement of Industry. Many manufacturers come,to see and share the progress made. The greatest progress comes by never standing still. Today's methods, however successful, can never be taken as wholly right. They represent simply the best efforts of the moment. To morrow must bring an improve ment in the methods of the day before Hard work usually finds the way. Once it was thought impossible to east gray iron by the endless chain method. All precedent was against it and every previous experiment had failed. But fair prices to the public demanded that waste ful methods be eliminated. Finally the ray was found. . .. Abetterwayof making axleshafts saved thirty-six million dollars in four years. , A new method of cutting crankcases re duced the cost by $500,000 a year. Thq perfection of a new machine saved a similar amount on such a little thing as one bolt. Then electric welding was de veloped to make many bolts unnecessary and to increase structural strength. Just a little while ago, an endless chain! conveyor almost four miles long was in stalled at the Rouge plant. This conveyor has a daily capacity of 300,000 parts weighing more than 2,000,000 pounds. By substituting the tireless, unvarying machine for tasks formerly done by hand it has made the day's work easier for thousands of workers and saved time and money in the manufacture of the car. 11 of these things are done in the interest of the public so that the benefits of reliable, economical transportation may be placed within the means of every one F O R D M OjT O H COM PAN i
