MORE PEOPLE
WANT FORDS

More people want Ford cars than
ever before" C. NJ. Pickren, local
dealer said today.
Fifty thousand more Fords were
sold at retail in March than in any
one month in the history of the
Ford Motor Company, according to
word from Detroit. The March sales
totaled 179,764 cars and trucks.
For a whole year sales have been
running over 100000 month,
bringing a total of 1,429,979 Ford
cars and trucks into use in the Unit
ed States alone since April /, 1928.
''The company is now operating
on the greatest manufacturing
schedule in its history, so there are
more Ford cars being built than
ever before and improvements in all
the different types make the Ford
the best ii ever has been.
And Ford cars are now easier to
obtain than ever before because of
the new Ford Weekly Purchase Plan
which makes it possible for more
families to have car. Father, moth

the number of families
who are taking advantage of it as
