Some Very Interesting Facts About the Ford

kins, general sales manager of the
Ford Motor Co, gave an interesting
talk on what il means TO manufacture
200. 900 complete motor cars in twelve

figures. was full of the romance OF
business. Ten years agt the company
was capitalized at $2S, 900 and did an
annual business of 5000, 600. Today
it is the largest motor cal factory in
the world; has capitalization of $50,
900 600 and sells annually $500, 600.
900 worth Of cars in all the world.
The January sales Of Ford cars, -
said Mr.. Hawkins, were nearly 50,
0O0. 900 for the month or more than
twice the gross receipts Of the Grand
Trunk railway system for the same
month. In the last four months we
did a business Of nearly $50, 900. OOC
and two Of these four months were not
real good ones He further stated,
The Ford is an organization Of young
men. Lot IN executive head has been
added to a single department Of the
business in more than six years, during
which time the output of cars and
annual sales have nearly doubled each
year. We use banks only as deposition

In our quest OF foreign trade We should
make every effort to promote amity with

that many OF us advocate the Substitution
