DEPOT: lib and Cenlral (aaTDaimiGaD Ford Says Plant Thousand Warplanes Daily Dearborn, Mich., May 29. iU.R Automobile Manufacturer Henry Ford says that if he is given six months' preparation he can turn out one thousand warplanes day at his River Rouge factory. Furthermore, said Ford, he lsi ready to throw the resources of the world's largest factory into national defense. He said the one thousand planes a day fig ure is no dream, and declared that such a rate of production could be achieved without ad ding any new imildings to his plant. The River Rouge factory cov ers one thousand acres and is equipped with railroads, ships, blast furnaces and more ma chine mechanics than any otner industrial concern in the wor.d. The production facilities of the plant, after necessary re vision, could be concentrated on the output of airplanes, engines and parts. Surveys of the plant already have been made by army and navy experts. Incidentally, at its peak output, the plant has turned out 10,000 automobiles per day. Ford said that peak produc tion in national defense can be reached only if industry is per mitted to manage itself. He is a foe of what he calls government interference in business. Ford suggested that competent aviation experts such as Colonel Charles Lindbergh or Captain Eddie Rickenbacker, the presi dent of Eastern Aairlines and a former auto manufacturer, be placed in charge of the mass pro cram. The manufacturer declared that whenever the order is given he and his industrial empire will swing into the national defense program, as, to use his own words, "any American citizen should."
