B. A. Murdock attended a meet­ ing of Ford dealers in Columbus last Friday what general .business -con­ ditions were reviewed. The Ford company has a business policy of always taking their agents in all branches of the business, knowing that tb«p interests must be mutual in a way. At this meeting a representative from the Detroit office* went into detail relative to present, automobile: conditions, ' > Some interesting figures .were giv­ en out that have a bearing on the jusinea* as a result o f the recent, re-, Juction in prices.* The expert showed the dealers that the company lost $30.52 bn every touring car 'manufactured. On the runabout the loss is $44.86, On the sedan, $31.88 is the loss, On the profit side the plain chassis- nets $1.77. A truck, $30; coupe, $30, It was nlso announced, that there would he no other reduction for the: next twelve months, neither would there be any change in,models as has been reported. The company has ninety million dol­ lars worth of material contracted for the coming year at the old price which should indicate in the face of ;he above figures that the company could not stand .any other reduction. In fact' it is almost certain that unless the company can go into the market and make additional purchases an lower prices -than, present con­ tracts, there will be an* increase in ;he prices after-the first of the year.
