Ford production for the first four
months of the year passed the half
million mark. According to fleures
supplied by Automotive Dally News,
trade newspaper of the Industry, the
output of 1935 Ford V-8s reached a
total of approximately 550,000 units
with the month ending April 30.
Fifteen days ago It was reported
that Ford Motor company officials
at th head office did not hesitate to
say: "By the end of April the com
pany will have produced better than
600,000 units." And from all indi
cations, the Ford production for the
first 17 weeks of the year went con
siderably over 500,000 units.
This remarkable Industrial aocom
llshment tends to prove that Henry
Ford was speaking the truth when he
said, late last November: "So far as
the Ford Motor company Is concerned,
the depression Is over." And It also
tends to prove. Ford dsalers declare,
that It was no Idle dream when Henry
Ford set "a million and more" as the
goal of the Ford organisation in 1035.
"That goal of 'a million mor' cars
Is now in sight," said O. A. Bult
wlnkel, manager of the Ford Motor
company Richmond plant, "and, pro
vided the demand holds up as antici
pated, which it undoubtedly will un
less more unforeseen conditions arise,
our objective will be attained.
"W. C. Cowling, our general sales
manager, has made statistical returns
which show that up to Aplrl 10 Ford
sales for the year totaled 334,437
units. That means that from Janu
ary 1 to April 10 more Ford cars and
trucks were sold than during all of
1932.
"Our dealers everywhere are' mov
ing in on the second half of the com
pany's million-car production with
rrnewed enthusiasm and greater con
fidence," the Ford branch manager
reported. 'The record-breaking pro
duction of the past 17 weeks has
been an inspiration to the dealer or
ganization and sales records are be
ing broken in keping pace with the
great Ford output.
"Here at the Richmond branch we
have been working at top speed ever
since the first of the year, turning
out between 300 and 400 units a day,
and employing approximately 3400
workers. With our dealers of the
Richmond area becoming more aggres
sive all the time, there should be no
abatement In our output. Instead,
there should be further Increases in
production and sales volume."

This week we shall give more de
tailed description of one of the fewj
English cars we have ever seen Ulus- I
t rat Ions of that has relly good lines
It is called the Avon, open 2-4 seater !
sports cat. In the catalogue we ro- I
celved It states, "Such a thorough- ;
bred commands attention, and Is a
leader of an entirely new style."
However, we are sure most Americans
would think: that it was Jiv , catch ins
up with our stream-Urn . body de
signs. The car Is very sporty-looking
probably because of its stream-lined
fenders and unique paint Job for the
most part, but little doubt its low
ness also plays a big part. It is less
thiin five feet high with the top up
r this Is much lower than moat
American cars, yet It is supposed to
have considerable clearance. The car.
as you may have guessed from the
name, seats either two or four peo
ple, and we muBt say that If four
people were seated they would be In
pretty close quarters. The car has
a wheel-base of only nine feet two
Inches and only a little better than ,
six feet Is allowed for the front and j
rear seats. Of course it Is the rear ,
sent th.it suffers when there Is a
lacking of room and though we hav j
not had the pleasure of sitting in the
back seat of this car we are sure that 1
there would not be much room for '
one's feet especially ours!
This condition of skimpy passenger
room is not at all unusual in Europ:
which shows that not much attention
Is given to the comfort of passengers
compared to what Is done here in
America we suppose that In Europe
a person considers himself so lucky
to even own a car that he doesn't
stop to think about comfort! How-
ever, you should take most everything
we have said with the consideration
that this car is built primarily for
sports use and not for comfortable
touring. Perhaps if you were to know
that this car is what would be called
a two-door phaeton here In America
you could better understand Its des
cription. Feotures of this car are: a
slanting V-type radiator, disk wheels,
built-in trunk, raklshly slanting
windshield which folds down, and of
course all of the standard equipment
which is usually found on foreign
cars which includes a four-whool
Jacking system, automatic stop and
reversing light, spt'clnl bumpers upon
which one's license plates are mount
ed, spring steering wheel, twin elec
tric horns, signaling system and so
on.

Mr i
Before you buy ANY new tire
consider these FACTS about Wards
if ITSBT fill fi I iTlf nmrnAmPA
ITfl You cannot buy a longer wearing
lUi first-quality tire at any price! .
Gruelling tests over some of the country's worst roada prove that New
Riverside, give up to 28 MORE MILEAGE than other leading
first quality tires. This extra mileage means you get as much as one
FREE mile in every five throughout Riversides' long life!
You cannot buy a safe' first-quality
tire at any price!
The same extra q'uality that gives you New Riversides' extra mileage
gives you greater safety tool Extra skidding protection built into
New Riversides' thicker, flatter, 2-way Center-Traction safety tread I
Greater blowout protection in New Riversides' improved, strengthened
carcass, with Latex dipped cords and double insulated safety plies!
SYou cannot get a stronger guarantee
on any other first-quality tire! .
When you buy a New First Quality Riverside you get a written guar
antee that protects you against EVERYTHING that can happen to a
tire in service Blowouts Cuts Bruisea Faulty Biakes Wheels
Out of Alignment Collisions WITHOUT LIMIT as to number of
months or miles of service I New Riversides have to be America's bee",
first quality tires to be hacked with such an unlimited guarantee!
EP You get the benefit of Wards savings
KJ In EXTRA quality and LOWER prices!
It costs juat as much to make a New Riverside as it does any of the
leading first quality tires BUT it costs a lot less to sell them to you!
First, because Wards way of buying tires eliminates most of the lelling
and service expenses the manufacturer incurs in selling the average
dealer! Second, because Wards cost of selling tires is distributed over
thousands of other item while the average dealer must distribute
these costs over just a few! New Riversides, America's best first
quality tires, are priced no higher than many other second-line tires!
