While Ford refused to be interviewed
on the subject his secretary today
admitted that such q deal is under
contemplation with the General Motors
Company.
II consummated, this exchange
would probably be the greatest
made in the money world for some
time past. involving hundreds OF
millions of dollars.
Rumors to this effect have been
circulated through Wall Street for
some time. but previously they have
brought strong denials from off,
cials at the Ford plant that this
deal was even contemplated.
In selling the controlling inter-
