We Are EeolMc: n TO All .ftord Cars "As 'Much as $50 un- Some Models" Effective Immediately A Statement by Henry Ford II "ALTHOUGH more tnan one million of our . customers are waiting for delivery of their cars at present prices, we are immediately re ducing the price of every Ford car some mod els as much as $50. "This is our 'down payment' toward a con tinued high level of production and employ ment in the months ahead. We believe that the 'shock treatment of prompt action is needed to halt the insane spiral of mounting costs and rising prices and to restore a sound base for the hopeful period of post-war production we are now entering. "Let me review briefly the considerations which have led us to take this important step. "The Ford Motor Company is in the mass production business. Mass production depends ' upon large markets. It will continue to succeed only if it can produce more and more at lower and lower cost so that more and more people can buy. Large markets begin to disappear when prices rise. "The un-American spiral of mounting costs and rising prices has hurt everybody some groups more than others. Many have not bene fited from post-war wage increases, but have had to share the burden of resulting higher prices. Already, millions of American families are unable to buy the things which, in normal times, make up their standard of living. In the short view, we can see inflation. In the long view, there is danger of depression "The period since V-J day has been an un happy and costly period of reconversion to peacetime production. Ford Motor Company has lost millions of dollars since VV-J day, even after all tax adjustments. "But the crisis of this wild aftermath of war seems to nave Lccn passed. Ouf own produc tion, though still limited by material shortages, is now steadier. Productivity Of our employes, which hit a new low during the period, seems" fo have started its return to normal. Ford Motof Company made a modest profit for the last three months of 1946, and we intend to continue to operate in the black. "The American economy now stands at a turning point. Mounting costs and rising prices have warranted caution and hesitancy. There is even general fear that this dangerous, un-American cycle cannot be corrected without an eco nomic recession. We think this fear can be dis pelled by common sense and action. And among free men that becomes an individual respon sibility. "The Ford Motor Company therefore pro poses to accept its losses since V-J day as an item of the cost of a great and victorious war. We are closing our books on that phase of Our production history. We have decided that now is thetimeforusto make an investment in the future. "Because they must build up depleted cash re serves or because they are still losing money, many businesses may not be able to follow suit. But we hope that our suppliers, our employes, and our other economic -partners will back, each to his own ability, our attempt to return to .the economic pattern which has helped to make America great the principle that higher wage and a' higher standard of living for all depenc upon lower costs and lower prices through in creasingly efficient large-scale production. "We hope, as we move forward, that we will be able to reduce prices further, and that we will not be forced to raise them again to compensate for cost increases." Henry Ford li PRESIDENT, FORD MOTOR COMPAN I
