There can be no assurance given against an advance in
these prices at anytime. We guarantee however, that
there will be no reduction in these1 prices prior to August
1, 1916.
Profit-Sharing With Retail Buyers
On August 1, 1914 we mad a the announcement that if w'
could make and sell at retail 300,000 Ford cars between
August 1, 1914 and August 1, 1915 we would share profits
with the retail purchasers, to the extent of from $10 to
$G0 on each car. We have sold over 300,000 Ford cars in
the time specified, and profit-sharing checks of $50 each
will be distributed as rapidly as 'possible after August 15,
1115. Retail purchasers who have not yet mnilcd us th'dr
profit-sharing coupons, properly 'endorsed should do s-j
without delay.
Our plan to profit-share with retail purchasers of Ford
cars during 1914-e5 has been most successful. We thor
oughly believe in it, but realizing the uncertainty of con
ditions generally makes it advisable to defer any an
nouncement of future profit-sharing until a later date.
We are, however, confident of our inability to 'reduce
costs for several months, and therefore can oFTer r.o profit
sharing for cars delivered "duping August, Sfptemlter fcnd
October, 1915.
