OPTIMISTIC OUTLOOK.
MR FORD AND INDUSTRY. DETROIT, Nov. 1. Mr Henry Ford to-day set the 1935 production quota of his company at one million automobiles, the highest since 1930. Mr Ford has made this decision because, he says, “our experience during the last six months and what we see in the future tells us that a year of improved business is ahead.” Mr Ford said: “The depression would be over for the whole country very soon if American industrialists would forget alphabet schemes and run their industries from sound American business sense,” Ho recommended that “they take hold of their country, too, in the same way.” Mr Ford’s statement was received with deep interest by Washington officials, but the "White House spokesman emphasised that _ President Roosevelt does not intend to issue any “prosperity is just around the corner” pronouncements.
