* Henry Ford
* 8 hour - 5 day work week established
* 1st report on system used today
This 70+ page newspaper has a two column headline on the front page: "Ford Establishes a 5-Day Week After Test; Expects Spur to Labor Will Bring 6-Day Pay".
Tells of the introduction of a 8 hour - 5 day work week by Henry Ford which is widely used to this day in most companies.
Other news of the day. Usual browning with little margin wear, otherwise in good condition. Should be handled with care.
