I Thm lorn priced mmtomutbtt* hat brought grmmtmr opportunity mmd midmI hour, of recr^^to mem BECAUSE the automobile is each an important factor in the lives and prosperity of so many people, the purpose of the Ford Motor Company is something more than the mere manufacture* ef> motor car. ^ There is no service in simply setting «p 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 setting price. All are a part of the plan. The Ford Motor Company looks upon itaelf as charged with making an automobile 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 tMngs is never-ending. Therk ia ceaseleaa, effort to find new methods and new machines that will save steps and rim* in manufacturing. The Ford plants are, in reality, a great mechanical university, dedicated to the advancement of industry. Many manufacturers come to «ae and share the progress made. The greatest progress cornea by never standing still. Today's methods, however successful, can never be taken as wholly right. They represent simply the efforts of the moment. To- Mttt bring mm imprsrs- . \ ment in the metnods of the day befwi^ Hard work usually finds the way. Once it was thought impossible to cast gray iron by the endless chain method. AH precedent was against it and every s previous experiment had failed. But fair '} prices to the public demanded that waste* ful methods be eliminated. Finally the way was found. Abetter way of making axle shafts saved thirty-six n1'!!'"" dollars in four years. A new method of cutting crankcases re* duced the coat by $500,000 a year. The perfection of a new machine saved a similar amount on such a little thing aa one bolt. Then electric welding was developed to make many bolts unnecessary . and to increase structural strength. Just a little while ago, an endless chain eosveyor almost four miles long was fan at the Rouge plant. This conveyor l»-- 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* All of these things are done in the interest of the public -- so that the benefits of reliable, economical transportation may be placed wilfcj.
