A Mixed Blessing
Eighty yean ago, worken at Henry Ford’s Detroit car facto
ry earned $2.34 for a 9-hour day. On January 5,1914, plant
officials announced Ford’s amazing plan to pay $S a day
for an 8-hour shift! This involved switching from two 9-hour
to three 8-hour shifts and adding a $2.66 “profit sharing”
bonus for all male employees age 22 or older, employed for
at least six months, and who were “clean, sober, and industri
ous.” To certify the last requirement, Ford created the
“Sociological Department,” whose job was to visit homes,
interview wives and neighbors, and ask personal questions
that wouldn’t be tolerated today. But in those days, $S a day
was a lot of money!

More than one-third of the
petroleum used in the
U.S. powers cars and
light trucks. Whatever your
current vehicle, you can help
reduce that consumption.
Keep your car tuned up and
filters clean. Keep tires inflat
ed to proper pressure.
(Radials are most fuel-effi
cient.) You can lose 2% in
fuel economy for
every pound below
recommended
pressure. Drive at a
steady pace; don’t
accelerate and then
slam on the brakes
it wastes gas!
