Exclusive Information.
After they had obtained exclu
sive information and turned the
evidence over to the authorities,
Goldstein and Mulroy received a
$100 check and a commendatory
letter from Victor F. Lawson, pro
prietor of the Chicago Daily
News, with which Mr. Mulroy still
is affiliated.
Goldstein now is employed by
the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
The reporters and six co-bene
ficiaries were selected from 102,
persons involved in the case.
Because their information was
regarded as the more important,
the reporters together received
half of the total reward.
Jacob Franks offered $5,000 re
ward and Chief of Police Collins'
added $1,000 to it.
Policemen and public officials
were eliminated on the theory
that paid enforcement officers
should not share in private re

AT LOWEST PRICE
LEVEL IN HISTORY
David T. Bussey, authorized
Ford dealer in Griffin and Spald
ing county, expressed himself as
follows regarding the new prices
announced on all Ford cars:
I A cut of $25 in the price of
the Fordor sedan, one of the most
popular of the Ford enclosed cars,
has been announced by the Ford
Motor Company. The same an
nouncement carried substantial re
ductions on all other Ford cars.
■ The price reductions come at
a time when (he car is enjoying
the greatest sales in its history,
for retail deliveries of Ford cars
have so far this year exceeded the
same period in any previous year.
Contributing to bringing about
lower prices are production ad
vancements during f the year in
which it has been possible to bring
about many improvements and at
the same time effect numerous
manufacturing economies by the
opening of new resources under
company control, the announce
ment says. yy
The big reduction in the price
of the Fordor sedan presents it to
a new and larger field of buyers.
Originally priced at $725 when it
was introduced in the Ford line
about two years ago, the price
of the Fordor was cut $40, when
reductions were announced Octo
ber 2, 1923, and now, much im
proved in appearance by better
and more attractive upholstery
and equipped with many accesso
ries, the new reduction of $25
brings this popular family cl osed
ear to the remarkably low figure
of $ 660 .
The net# list prices on
cars, F. O. B. Detroit, are as
follows:
Fordor Sedan ____ $685 to $660
Tudor Sedan ______ -$590 to $580
Coupe ,___________ -$525 to $520
Touring Car _____ -$295 to $290
Runabout ________ -$265 to 260
Ford Chassis ___ _. -$230 to $225
Ford one-ton truck
chassis ________ $370 to $365
The new reductions affect all
persons who are enrolled in the
Ford Weekly Purchase plan, as
those who have not yet taken
livery of their cars
benefit in the reduced prices.
This reduction in prices will
save over three-quarters of a
lion dollars to Ford car
during the month of .
