TO OUR CUSTOMERS:—
Commencing January 1, in keeping with the policy adopted by
the FORD MOTOR CO., from its inception, we are going to place
our business on a CASH basis.
In adopting this policy it is our earnest desire to cast no re
flections on anyone’s credit. However, is is a policy, when once
placed in effect, must be rigidly observed.
Our profits are small, and the SERVICE rendered FORD own
ers through AUTHORIZED FORD DEALERS is without ques
tion unequaled by any organization.
Our business transactions with the FORD MOTOR CO., the
Union Oil Co., and accessory houses are all on a spot CASH basis.
We will appreciate your cooperation in helping us to maintain
this policy.
THanking you for all your past business, we remain,
Yours for Service,
