_ v in W iiMHW*"*' • t »*r^wwutwv v», vwww mmtMK w ■ ~ Lincoln Fordson Fourteen Millions “Squashing Rumors” The manufacture of the 1 I millionth Ford on July 21st„ passed almost unnoticed, because Ford records are made only to be broken and every six months sees another million Fords produced, This enormous Ford Production, sieadilv maintained year after year, is sometimes lost sight of in the riot of claims regarding percentage increases. People sometimes are misled into thinking that a percentage increase means a large increase in actual numbers produced. A factory which produces 100.000 cars one year and 150.000 the next has aSO increase but their total production may still be a negligible factor in an industry which produces four million cars annually. So instead of dealing in percentages, we merely chronicle the fact that Ford Motor Co., has produced four million cars in the last twenty-five months, a number which almost surpasses comprehension. 1,056,000 To July . Ist These figures represent the number of new Fords pro luted and sold in the United States alone between January Isl and July 15th 192 ft They do not include export busings or Fords produced in the world wide Ford plants, such as lord of Canada, England, Irish hree State, France, Den nark. Italy, Cermanv, Japan, etc etc the combined total of which almost staggers the imagination. HOW ABOUT INDIANA? A little percentage figuring of our own will he interesting. Indiana branch territory has always absorbed its proportion of the “million every si< months" production This vear for the past 100 days there have been sold in Indiana 12.2',, more new Fords thin in the same period last year and an 18 s'; increase since the recent price cut.
