FORD CUTS WAGE SCALE IN RETURN TO ‘NORMAL RATE’
Noted Magnate Acts To End "Inflated Dollar'’ Conditions In His Plant.
Copyright 1931 By United Press
DETROIT. Oct. 28—(UP)— Htgiry Ford Is slashing off part of the “prosperity dollar” wage increases granted his employees during recent "boom times,” the I'nited Press was informed today at tne Ford Motor company.
While not definitely annonuced yet, the minimum pay for Ford workers probably will be reduced from 97 a day on $6, the rate in effect prior to 1929. Higher paid employees will suffer reductions ln proportion, or greater.
Ford announced his $7 a day minimum wagp more than a year ago, after a conference with President Hoover in Washington. In effect, he meant to pass to the workers some of the profits accumulated over the unusuRl years of 1928-29, It was said, with the idea also of giving business a stimulation.
After continuing wages based on what Ford considers the “Inflated dollar” of the last few years, the time has came to return to a 'more normal" basis, it was said.
