AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE
TO OUR CUSTOMERS AND FRIENDS
We are happy to be able to tell you that the lawsuit brought more
than four years ago against Ford Motor Company and Dearborn
Motors Corporation by Harry Ferguson and Harry Ferguson, Inc.
has been settled by agreement of the parties.
There are three points connected with this settlement which, as a
present or possible future owner of a Ford Tractor, we went to
make clear to you. Regardless of what you may hear to the con
trary, these are the FACTS. , .
3 POINTS OF INTEREST
To Our Present and Future Customers
IFord Motor Company will conttnut production
of tht present Ford Tractor without interrup
tion, and Dearborn Motors Corporation will con
tinue to market them nationally as in the past. By
the end of 952, Ford Motor Company has agreed
to make two simple changes, and only two changes,
In the means of operation and control of a pump
used in the hydraulic system in the Ford Tractor.
After these simple changes have been made, there
Is nothing in the settlement of the suit to prevent
Ford Motor Company from continuing the manu
facture of the present Ford Tractor for as long at
It may choose.
2 Ford Motor Company will continue to produce)
and Dearborn Motors Corporation, and our
selves as dealer, will continue to supply all repair
parts for all past, present and future Ford Tractors.
3 For J Tractors will continue to offer all the
advantefti of the present system of hydraulic
control, the present method of attaching and
operating implements, and all other features re
sponsible for their wide popularity. Dearborn
Motors will continue to offer its same complete
line of Implements.
A STATEMENT
By Henry Ford II
"In normal times Ford Motor Com
pany would carry such a suit to a
final conclusion in the courts . . .
These are not normal times. Under
the circumstances we were glad to
get rid of the litigation to avoid the
expense, harassment, and further
interference with our tractor busi
ness involved in additional years
in the courts.
"The settlement in no way Inter
feres with Ford Motor Company's
continuing to offer to the farmer
the lowest priced tractor with hy
draulic control and the present 4
method of attaching and operating
Implements."
It is i source of deep satisfaction to us to be in a position to debunk
conclusively and finally in this way the assertions that have been
made and the propaganda that has been spread over the past four years.
