MOTOR CAR PROBLEM.
ELIMINATION OF NOISE. FORD ON DISADVANTAGES DETROIT, July 31. Mr. Henry F’ord, who to-day celebrated his G'itli birthday, says he believes, that, from the engineering standpoint, the outstanding problem in the manufacture of motor-cars i.s the elimination of noise. “Noise means bad design,” Air. Ford explained. “When the various measurements are held closer to those specified by the engineers, we shall have more silent- and altogether better cars. “Let us extend our reform to noisy streets and workshops,” lie went on. “Noise means friction, and that means wear, and wear is costly. Wear that oomes through friction is the most -costly waste in industry.”
