FORD TO RESTRUCTURE ITS GLASS BUSINESS

     Dearborn, Mich., April 4 --- Employees of Ford Motor
Company's Glass Division were advised today that the company
intends to significantly restructure its North American glass
operations.

     The company has initiated preliminary discussions with
several major glass companies about the possibility of acquiring
an interest in Ford's glass business.  More intensive discussions
with these companies will take place over the next several weeks.

     The division has plants in Dearborn, (Mich.), Nashville,
(Tenn.), Tulsa, (Okla.), Juarez, (Mexico) and administrative,
design and development, sales and warehousing activities located
in the United States.

     The Glass Division supplies automotive glass to Ford
assembly plants in North America, produces automotive glass for
the after market and also produces architectural glass.

     The division has approximately 4,100 employees.
