In one of the most exciting and in

gets triumphed over the Moorhead
high school for the second time this
season at the Moorhead normal last
light. The final count stood. Fargo
is. Moorhead 10. Close guarding, es-
p~ecially on the part of Moorhead, kept
the score down and prevented either
team from ever gaining much Of a
lead.
Coach Robinson gave some Of his
promising subs a chance to snow their
mettle and left three regulars on the
sidelines during the first half. Subs
Is rather a poor name, for they made
b better showing that their more ex-
~perienced teammates succeeded in do
Ing during the last half. They played
Moorhead to a standstill and when
the half ended the score stood 6 to 5
IN their favor.
Melchior got over the floor in fine
style and was the star of the first half.
His accurate throwing of fouls helped
roll UP the score. Comstock and Dixon
did some excellent guarding and held
their opponents safe.
-Four fresh men started the second
half for Fargo, Moorhead came back
strong and soon by means of several
long, pretty shots by Wheeler, gained
a lead of three points. Rusk replaced
M. Perry at guard and an instant later

shot of the game. This stemmed the

But such unfair treatment couldn't
go On forever. The native buyers
awakened to the situation. Naturally,
their preference was for the light
American cars because they cost only
a pittance in comparison with the
European automobile. Well, with the
outer walls of prejudice battered
down, the American cars simply
swept foreign countries by storm.
There wasn't a chance for the foreign
cars to compete with the lightweight
cars America was sending over there.

HENRY FORD TELLS OF sTRue-
GLE FOR SUPREMACY ABROAD.

There is one chapter of the Ameri-
can motor ear industry which has
never been told so far as / know and
which to me is one of the most inter
esting ones said Henry Ford, presi-
dent of the Ford Motor Co, recently.
Il refer to the struggle of American
car manufacturers for recognition
abroad. Probably most Americans do
not know there has been such a strug-
gle.
They hear nowadays of how the
lightweight American cars have cap
tured England and Europe and how
they can be counted by the thousands
in Australia. But how many Ameri-
cans know that it was only a short
time ago when foreign prejudice
against American cars was SO strong
that a garage which happened to be
headquarters for European cars regu-
larry refused to admit American cars
for repair? How many know that the
bitterness against the American cars
was so strong that foreign accessory
dealers in many cases wouldn't sell
tires for American cars2 Owners of
American cars couldn't even buy q
spark plug from the agents of Euro
pean cars.
"Of course all such conditions are
over now and the American car own
ers in the Philippines or Brazil re-
ceive as courteous treatment from the
automobile repair men and accessory
dealers as the owners of French, Ger
man or Belgian cars. But 1 tell you
it was a struggle to place the Ameri-
can car in the front rank among the
other nations as well as at home.
The chief reason for the hostility of
foreigners to American cars was their
low price. They didn't cost nearly as
much as the foreign cars and the for
eign agents, through ignorance of
American manufacturing conditions,
concluded{ without investigation that
the American cars must be very much
inferior. Nothing but the healing
balm of time could alter that preju-
dice. 1t was Just a case. of sticking
on the job with the American cars
and proving by years of good service

that the American ear would do the
work.
From the Ford dealer in the Philip
pines / learned that the battle for
recognition was about as hard as it
could be made. The French made it
almost impossible to sell an American
car to a native. They influenced the
native buyers in every possible way,
so l am given to understand. They
were always telling about American
cars that were out of commission.
Usually it was for some trivial thing
which could have been fixed in a few
