Artifact Overview

Henry Ford's office kept a file of newspaper articles that covered Ford Motor Company and other topics of interest to Mr. Ford. These clippings are from the days following Ford's announcement of the Five Dollar Day profit-sharing plan in January 1914. While Ford's primary goal was to reduce employee turnover, the raise generated great publicity around the world.
