TO every automobile 01Vmer

'Nnr1rrs year. ago We made and sold
the first Model 7 Ford Car. In announcing it
20 the public we said:
"1Ve sOiU build a motor car for te great mnI-
fitHds. 1t WiU Be large enough for The family bit
smaH enough for The iudividual to RIM and care
for. II s0iH Be constructed Of he best materially

eff I were starting in business today, or
asked TO restate my policy, / would not change
one sentence or one word of that original
announcement In plain, simple language it
gives the reason for the very existence of the
Ford Motor Company and explains its growth.
IN THE last nineteen years we have made
100000 Ford cars and added TO the world
nearly 300,0o0,O 900 mobile horsepower. Yet
I do not consider the machines which bear my
name simply as machines. / take them as con-
crete evidence of the working out of a theory
of business which I hope is something more
than a theory of business theory that looks
toward making this world a better place in
which to live.
'Ihe Model t Ford car was a pioneer. There
was no conscious public need of motor cars
when we first conceived it. There were few
good roads and only the adventurous few
could be induced to buy an automobile.
'The Ford ca5 blazed the way for the motor
industry and ssh the movement for good
roads. IL broke down the barriers of time and
distance and helped to place education within
che reach of all. 1t gave people more leisure.
II helped people everywhere to do more and
better work in less time and enjoy doing it.
IL did a great deal. / am sure, to promote the
growth and progress of this country.
1--WE are still proud of the record of the
Model I Ford car. If we were not, we would
not have continued to manufacture il so long.
But 1927 is not 1908. Ii is not 1915. II is
not even 1926.
We haze built a neW car to meet
modern conditions

have 50 greatly changed in the last few years

s~truction Is desirable. So we have built a new

car. To put it simply-we have built 4 new
and different Ford to meet new and different
conditions.
1--WE believe the new Ford car, which will
be officially announced on Friday of this week,
is as great an improvement in motor car build
ing as the Model L Ford was in 1908.
Smart netU hw lines and

ssThe new Ford is more than a car for the
requirements of today. It goes farther than
that. 1t anticipates the needs of 1928, of 1929,
of 1880.
The new Ford car is radically different from
Model T. Yet the basic Ford principles Of
economy Of production and quality Of prod
uct have been retained. There is nothing quite
Like the new Ford anywhere In qualify and price.
stThe new Ford has exceptional beauty of
Line and color because beauty of line and
color has come 20 be considered, and / think
rightly, a necessity in a motor car today.
Equally important is the mechanical beauty Of
the engine. let us not forget this mechanical
beauty when we consider the beauty Of the
new Ford.

sEvery part Of it has been tested and &C
tested. There is no guessing as to whether it
will be a successful model. It has to be-.
There is no way it can escape being SO, for IL
represents the sum total of all we have learned
about motor car building in the making of
$4,000, 600 automobiles.
The nesV Ford wiU sell at

stThe price of the uew Ford Is low In accor-
dance with the established Ford policy. hold
that il is better TO sell a large number of cars
at a reasonably small margin of profit than to
sell . few cars &C a large margin Of profit.
I'VE never forget that people who buy Ford
cars arc che people who helped co make this
business big. II has always been our policy 60
share our profits with our customers. Tn one
year our profits were so much larger than We
expected that we voluntarily returned $50 TO
each purchaser of a car. We could never have
done that IF this busibess had been conducted
for the sole benefit of stockholders rather than
to render service to the public.
ssNo other automobile can duplicate the new
Ford car at the Ford price because no other
manufactures does business the way We do.

The lexington sites are those
known as squares $50 and 673. The

While the city planners and others
concerned with the proper develop

the selection of one of the lexington
sites, the Commissioners, it was in
Dictated, are inclined to he more sympa'
thetic toward ore of the Southwest
sites, chiefly because it would be more
economical to acquire property in the
southwest.
According to information gathered
by District officials the property in
the Southwest sites Is assessed at
about 80 cents a square foot. while the
assessment on the lexington sites
range from 81 to So square foot

missioners, may be forced to recon-
mend a definite site. although they
would rather not do so until the
commission merchants select a new

GALES AWAITS FLYER

MEXICO CITY, December 10 H).-
President Gales, it is expected, will
be present at the landing field when
Col, Charles A. Lindbergh, the Ameri-
can lone eagle, reaches here by air.
| The date so far as known has not
yet been fixed. but Lindbergh will
alight on the Valbuena army flying
ground.
Scores of kilograms are coming t.
the presidential, offices from towns
and cities throughout Mexico asking
Lindbergh to fly there also. If these
requests are not granted, thousand
will do the next best thing and come
to Mexico City to see Americas pre-
mier airman. The railroads are pre-
pairing to handle the largest eXcur-
sion crowds in Mexican history.
The American Ambassador. Dwight
w. Morrow. will have Lindbergh ut
the embassy as his guest. but PreSi-
dent Gales also desires that the aVia.
tor should spend part of the time as
the Presidents guest at Chapultepec
Castle.
The army aviation department is
preparing plans for the reception. a
squadron of army flyers will be dis
patched to some point in the north.
ern part of the republic to escort the
noted aviator to Mexico City. The
people are thrilled at the announce
ment of Lindbergh's proposed flight
consequently this is eclipsing all
other news interest here.

thai the members had agreed am ing
themselves not TO discuss the matter
in any way.
Every inquiry, even that going 10
the question of the authority Of the
committee to summon diplomatic or
consular officers of The Mexican gov
eminent, were met 10y the chairman
and other members with the same
statement, but there was no FEplana-
ton of why such an agreement had
been entered into.
The Senate Sergeant alarms. David
S. Barry. said he was und-' orders of
such character that officially he did
not even know that there was sucn A
committee as the Senate created Fri
day after the publication in the Hearst
papers OF the charges of fund fW
Senators.
Identifies Are Secret.
Aside from that as to the authority
of the committee to summon Next
can diplomatic and consular officials,
there still was speculation as to the
identity OF the four Senators for
whom ghe huge sum was created. At
least TIVE sets of names were goins
the rounds.
AS to the authority of the commit.
tee to summon Elias and perhaps
other consular officers there seemed
a division of opinion in some quar-
tors, but among Senators who have
inquired into the situation there WAS
little doubt that subpOenaes could be
issued for such officers.
Inasmuch as Mexican officials have
repeatedly denied the authenticity OF
the documents now being published by
the Hearst papers. there was indi
cation that they would resist The op
portunity TO appear before the inyesti
gators for questioning.

Department has no information as Il

anticipated that Col. Lindbereh will
have any difficulty IN reaching his de
sired altitude. With the $50 gallons OF
| fuel aboard, the plane will require a
minimum run Of 1,500 feet. IL the
ground is soft, then at least $500 feet
will be necessary.
The colonel will carry with him
much bigger larder than on his New
York-Paris flight. He will have two
canteens Of water and weeks supply
of concentrated food, this in case nc
is forced down in some isolated spot.
Weather Is Watched.
Weather conditions have not been
overlooked. Reports by telegraph and
cable have been ordered beginning to-
morrow, from Roanoke, Chattanooga,
birmingham, Atlanta, Montgomery,
Jackson, Vicksburg. New Orleans,
Galveston, Tampico, Vera Cruz and
Mexico City. The famous flyer will

bergh will use gasoline of Government

line and oil consumption probably will
be little higher than when it was
first put into service.
Having this in mind, Col. Lind
bergh has decided to carry $50 gallons
OF gasoline and Is gallons of oil, an
amount considerably in excess of
what would be required IL the pilot
could be guaranteed still air through
out the journey.
Col. Lindbergh's engine used only
six gallons of oil on the New York

sumption was slightly i'm excess of
10 gallons per hour, BY flying with
the altitude control adjustment which
gives a lean mixture, Col. Lindbergh
believes he can keep his fuel con-
sumption down to the transoceanic
figure.
Wind is Big Factor.
The take,off will depend on the di.
rection of the wind. Should the wind
be either north or south, the pilot
will utilize the full length of the field,
but If it Is one of the frequent strong
west winds. he will utilize the
southeast section. To this latter area,
the pilot has given much considera-
ton. He has found that by backing
the tail of the Spirit of st. Louis al
most against the railroad tracks that
skirt the east end of the field he
would have run of exactly one,haN
mile.
