IDEA MAN How thirty-six words Paid off to the Tune of Six Thousand Dollars!

No, he didn't dream up a better mousetrap. But he's the kind of person who probably could if he put his mind to it. As the old maxim implies, though, if you figure out a way to do anything worthwhile more efficiently, chances are you'll be rewarded. It was certainly true of this ingenious General Motors em­ ploye, who recently collected $6,000 for a valuable suggestion that took just thirty-six words to describe-more than $166.00 per word! The GM Employe Suggestion Plan has paid out more than $70,000,000 and produced more than a million usable suggestions since its inception in 1942; It is worth noting that a great many awards go to conscientious employes who would have submitted their suggestions even if there had been no mone­ tary reward involved. Whatever their jobs, these are among the real stars of the General Motors team-people who are truly interested in finding ways to make products and processes safer, better and more efficient.
