It is not generally known that our tractor, which we call the "Fordson," was put into production about a year before we had intended, because of the Allies' war-time food emergency, and that all of our early production (aside, of course, from the trial and experimental machines) went directly to England. We sent in all five thousand tractors across the sea in the critical 1917-18 period when the submarines were busiest. Every one of them arrived safely, and officers of the British Government have been good enough to say that without their aid England could scarcely have met its food crisis.

白话
福特说，很多人不知道，他们的“福特森”拖拉机提前约一年投产，是因为一战时盟军粮食紧急。早期生产（除试验机外）全直接运往英国。1917-18年潜艇最猖獗时，五千台拖拉机跨海运抵，全部安全到达。英国政府官员说，没有这些援助，英国几乎无法应对粮食危机。
