3Henry Ford, 1916How Employers Feel Toward
Cigarette SmokersHere is an Automobile Companys
Attitude
Cigarette smoking is acquiring a hold on a great
many boys in our community. Since it is such a
bad practice and is taking such a hold upon so
many people, we think it is a disgrace for a
grown man to smoke cigarettes, because it is not
only injurious to his health, but it is such a
bad example to the boys.

White Slaver, 1916. (reprinted by the Historical
Society of Michigan, 1992)
4Henry Ford, 1916 (continued)
Boys who smoke cigarettes we do not care to keep
in our employ. In the future we will not hire
anyone whom we know to be addicted to this habit.
It is our desire to weed it entirely out of the
factory just as soon as practicable. We have
two objects in interesting ourselves in this
matter First, to help men and boys second, we
believe that men who do not smoke cigarettes or
frequent the saloon can make better automobiles
than those who do.

Overall Score
29Omar Paulk Grade 8 In the neighborhood, the
phrase to smoke means to kill someone. He got
smoked means he got killed. When smokers finish
a cigarette, they say they are killing the
cigarette. My drawing asks the question, Whos
Smoking Who? It means the cigarette is killing
the smoker.
