With the opening this year of two important new units, the Ford school system now enrolls nearly 10,000 students. Latest ad- ditions arc an aircraft apprentice school and a U. 8. Navy Service school to train Uncle Sam’s blue- Jackets. Henry Ford started a school system in his automobile factories 25 years ago when he foresaw a future need for skilled manpower in industry. This foresight now is expected to go a long way toward solving his need for skilled hands in filling more than $700,000,000 in national defense orders. Ford training facilities have grown in the past year to become the largest of their kind in the world. Space within the 1,200-acre Rouge plant devoted exclusively to classrooms, laboratories and school shops has been increased from three to five acres. One hun- dred instructors have been added. In the new aircraft apprentice school, youths are being trained in machine shop, assembly, disas- sembly, inspection and testing of the Pratt & Whitney airplane en- gine which Ford is bullding for the U.S. Army. The school is located in the front partion of the new $27,000,000 airplane enginc plant on the Rouge grounds. Another unique Ford school pro- ject linked closely to national de- femse is the Navy Bervice School. Costing around $1,000,000, this school was provided and equipped through the Ford Motor Company, at no expense to the government. ‘The first sections were erected in B o tme oF o, e e e T were discussed but no| Parsons the emotional, Mrs. G.
