MORE FORD ECONOMY
Motor Company Arranges for Cheaper
Repair and Storage.

New York. Aug. 10.-Having just
made anoth er: reduction in the price of
it's cars, the Ford Motor company
plans to make it even more inexpen-
sive to own, a Ford by making a radi-
cal change in its sales system.
The innovation will permit Ford
owners to have garage and repair sup
plies at considerable lower rates than
at present. The purpose Is to avoid
the complaint that while one may buy
a Ford at a price unusually low, the
upkeep is frequently nearly as high as
that for the storage of a high priced
automobile.
The plan as understood by Ford
representatives in New York is to
abolish the branches now maintained
in fifty-one cities and turn their bust
ness to a large number of dealers with
garage and repair facilities.
Purchasers of Ford cars by this ar
rangement would be able to keep their
cars in Ford garages at very low rates.
