minds can only speculate
To get the retail price so low
the masses can buy it raw ma-
terials and supplies going into u
car must be bought at the lowest
figure. To get them at this figure
they must be bought in tremetld*
oust volume. So mammoth an in-
take of (foods requires colossal,
production to consume. Such huge
purchasing and production de-
mand staggering sums.'
Mr. Ford’s schedules are elastic
and capable of large expansion.
If a strong market develops, and
men supposed to know say Mr.
Ford’s potential seljing field was
never tefon? so great he volume
of production will bt increased to
meet it.
Based on a'n anticipated produc
tion of 1,500.000 cars a yea r.
gross purchases of raw materials
and supplies will average more
than *52,000.000 a month. During
peak production in previous years
purchases have exceeded $80,000.*
000 a month.
On this basis Mr. Ford will
spend more than $300,000,000 in
Detroit and Michigan for raw ma-
terials. manufactured supplies,
freight and labor in the rest of
1032. In the Detroit district alone
all the other
items that go into the making of
a motor car and it is eusy to see
that industry will be stimulated
in literally thousands of plan**,
scattered all over the world, by
the initiation of this new Ford
program. A hundred thousand
men put back to work in his own
plants will mean at leant that
many more givei] jobs elsewhere.
Not every industry can start up
like that on one man’s sayso.
Boards of directors and bankers
have to be consulted before any
chances are taken. But nobody but
Henry Ford himself has to be con-
sulted in this case, and ! believe
he has given himself good advice.

average monthly payroll in the
Detroit district will run to more
