improved since the big rain of Sunday
night

disappointed to find that the people of

Mr. Edsel B. Ford, President of the Ford Motor
Company, makes the following announcement:
"Weare making another reduction in the
prices of Ford cars and the Ford truck, effective
today. The new prices average $70.00 under
the former prices, and are the lowest at which
Ford cars and trucks have ever been sold.
List prices, F. O. B. Detroit, are now as fol
lows: New Old Re
Price Price duction
Chassis $295.00 $345.00 $50.00
Runabout... 325.00 370.00 45.00
Touring Car. 355.00 415.00 60.00
Truck 445.00 495.00 50.00
Coupe 595.00 695.00 100.00
Sedan 660.00 760.00 100.00
"This is the third price cut during the past
twelve months. On September 22, 1920, the
price of the Ford touring car was reduced from
$575 to $440; June 7th to $415, and now to
$355, making total reductions in this type of
$220, or 38 per cent. The same proportionate
reductions have been made in all other types.
One year ago the price of the Ford Sedan was
$U75; today it lists at $660.00 with the same
equipment.
"We are taking advantage of every economy
in the manufacture of our products in order
that we may give them to the public at the low
est possible price, and by donig that, we feel
that we are doing the one big thing that will
help this country into more prosperous times.
People are interested in prices, and are buying
when prices are right.
"The production of Ford cars nad trucks for
August again broke all previous high records
with the total reaching 117,696. This is the
fourth consecutive month in which our output
has gone over the hundred thousand mark, the
total for the four months being 463,074, which
has gone a long way in making possible the
present reductions. June this year, with an
output of 117,247, was the previous record
month.
"One noteworthy feature of our sales is the
increased demand for Ford trucks and cars for
salesmen. This class of commercial business
has been gradually ncreasing rite past sixty
days and we interpret it as a very good sign
of improvement in general business.
"No reductoin has been made in the price
of the Fordson Tractor, and none is contem
plated." Coover these new prices! See how little it
costs to become the owner of a Fori car or a
Ford truck. Can you really afford to do with
out one any longer?

regarding the delivery of the particular type of
car in which you are interested.

iKSSi W&A hv the nnhlie utilitv comoanies of the country to
KJrfi provide service for an additional million inhabitants
Oreffij is one of the interesting facts brought forth in the
recently published report of Senator William M. Calder's Com
mittee on Reconstruction and Production.
After a searching inquiry into the various conditions bear
ing upon the housing situation and the country's industrial pro
auction, the Committee finds that the business of public utilities
has outgrown their plant facilities owing to the inability of the
companies to finance improvements and additions necessary to
take care of increased service demands.
"Prior to the war," states the Committee, "it is estimated
that the normal annual requirements of elecric railway, gas, and
electric light and power companies for extensions, betterments,
and improvements was about $500,000,000, proportioned as
follows: electric railways, $250,000,000; gas companies, $125,
000,000; electric light and power companies, $123,000,000.
The Committee has informed that for four years not over
40 per cent of such betterments has been made, leaving an ac
cumulation of about $1,200,000,000. if to this sum is added the
$700,000,000 required alone for service to new residential
buildings held in abeyance, a total of approximately $2,000,000,
000 seems necessary for the public utility program in the im
mediate future.
"The question of placing these businesses on a sound finan
cial basis in order that credit may flow to them is the same ques
tion which confronts steam railroads and housing, but in the
case of public utilities the situation is more difficult because
there is no central body as now provided in the case of steam
lailroads which might adjust rates in proper relation to operat
ing costs and capital investment The utilities likewise suffer
in their effort to secure new capital for necessary extensions of
service by the almost insurmountable difficulty of having to com
pete for such capital with municipal, state and similar tax
exempt securities. Until these problems are solved the public
should recognize this underlying reason for much of the faulty
service and for the failure to provide the additional facilities
urgently demanded to meet community needs." paid adv.
