The fiscal year of the Ford Motor
company ended July 81, and this con-
v%ention, preceding an anticipated ~

demand for Ford cars, Is of exceptional
Importance to the Ford Motor company
and to the automobile industry as a
whole, since 2S Ford assembling plants
| were represented, where the combined
present production is 1900 car a day
and which lave over 5000 employees.
The manufacturing effort of the COM
pany for the first six months Of the
present yea was concentrated almost
entirely upon the output OF war mate
rails, and 1t was not until March, 1919,
that the production Of Ford cars and
Ford parts began to assume normal pro-
portions. At the present time output Is
averaging about 1900 cars a day, and
production for the year ending July 81,
1919, Is over 525, 900 cars.
The production of 5000 Ford cars a
day has necessitated the development
OF departments at branch assembly
plants and the Ford dealers organiZa-
tion to a point where many OF these
plants are assembling for the demands
OF the particular territories they serve
an output Of cars greater than the pro-
duction Of the average automobile fac
tory.
In the convention particular attention
was given to the question of the pro-
duction efforts which are being made
to meet the demand for Ford cars
throughout the world, and an estimated
output Of approximately 1000, 600 cars
was announced for next year. further
