A—10 Methodist Group Asks U. S. to Stay Out of War Conference Pledges Church to Stronger Education Program By the Associated Press. ASHEVILLE, N. C., May 25.—The Southeastern jurisdictional confér- ence of the Methodist Church asked the United States today to stay out of war. A report adopted by the confer- ence, representing nine State con- ferences, said: “We must not yield to the fallacy that the United States must go into the war if it is to serve in es- tablishing a new peace basis. We can serve best by staying out. “Only those who have escaped the blood lust of actual fighting can see the world situation steadily and see it whole.” The anti-war resolution was adopted after the conference killed *THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

Cool black with frosty white “How Do I Profit by the ord Way of Doing Business?” TBAT advertisement we ran recently, called “The Ford Way of Doing Business,” was well received and widely discussed.* It told how Ford pioneered in high wageés, a shorter working day and, week, better industrial conditions, and the Ford policy of lower prices and lower profit. But the advertisement was not complete. It did not answer the question which may be in your mind! . . . “How does the Ford way benefit me?” It is a natural question to ask how high wages, short hours and splendid shop conditions affect the price you pay for a car. You can see that the car may be better, but'why should it cost less? ’I}l'e answer lies in the vast number of cars made. In efficient methods. In improved machinery which increases the output and value of man’s work. Compare the Ford V-8 of 1940 with even the highest priced car of 10 years ago and you can see how that principle works. Every year you get more automobile for your money.. Every year, as the average wage to automobile workers has increased, the over-all cost to you of owning and running a car has grown less. The major influence in keeping quality up and keeping prices down today is the Ford policy in these matters. : It is now generally conceded that the Ford high-wage policy (the minimum wage in Ford plants Henry Ford says: “Good and lasting business must produce profit to the buyer as well as to the seller. And of the two, the buyer’s profit must be, compara- tively, the larger one. It pays us to sell the Ford V-8 be- cause it pays you to buy it.” is $6 per day and skilled workers receive much more) has been of immense benefit to all industry. Other manufacturers in many lines now pay better wages, too, and the result has been to create buying pow;:r, provide volume markets and greatly increase the value which a dollar will buy. ’Bnen there is the question of profit. Can it be shown that Ford profit per car is lower —and that the buyer gets the benefit? On this let us refer you to the Federal Trade Commission’s recent report on the Auto- mobile Industry by direction of the United States Congress, Annlyzlng the govern- ment figures compiled in this report, a leading financial pub- lication says, “In the four years 1934 to 1937, inclusive, a fairly prosperous period for the motor industry, the Ford Motor Com- pany extracted a profit averag- ing less than $6 per car.” The news story then compares this figure with the $48 and $46 profit averages on other leading low-price cars. Tl:eu are direct benefits to you of the Ford way of doing bqnlneu. This explains .why your Ford car can have more cylinders, more equipment, more costly design and construction in chassis and body—and still cost you no more than other cars in the same price field, O FORD MOTOR COMPANY %1 you decire & fres copy of the edvertisemens hoaded “The Ford Wey of Doing Business,” write the Ford Motor Company, Dearbor, Mick. trim.
