 Echoes of the past. If MT. Hughes turna m ear of welcome, MT.

No use to talk to them of preparedness or MT. Wilson's ''vacillating foreign policy, says the Nebraska sage. Mex leo, Mexico, Mexico! That IS the 1n- spiring and protuberant issue. Let us see the theory of Senator Fall, who be- slowed his wisdom upon MT. Hughes yesterday. A Washington dispatch to The Tribune admits us to the mysteries of the New Mexican statesman's psy- chological laboratory:
 The sentimental appeal is
 brought in on the Mexican issue
 and has a special bearing on the
 hyphenated voters. These men,

 patriotism, might be anxious to F. demonstrate it, and could do so F. more easily by getting aroused
 over the Mexican situation than in
 almost any other way. This idea,
 suggested by MT. Fall, was decla-
 red to be sound psychology by sew
 eral Senators whose opinions he asked ~ }
 It has been noticed that some Re publican Senators and Representatives who did not support MT. Wilson in his assertion of American rights upon the r high seas are purple over the MeKi can situation. And now the ingen ious MT. Fall furnishes those citizens who agree with the Wisconsin branch of the German-American Alliance il demanding "of our Administration ar energetic and effective protection O. all our citizens in foreign countries provided, however, they do not expos themselves intentionally to any dan ger by entering the war zone, and thu forfeiting the right to enjoy such pro tection," with a limited and Republi can "patriotism."

THE MAN WHO TRIED
 TO STOP THE WAR

Henry Ford, the man who tried to stop the war. will celebrate his fifty third birthday on Sunday. The fam ous motor car manufacturer,>D >Detroit's most celebrated citizen, Is far from discouraged by the result of his mis- sion to the warning nations of Europe. and he believes that the movement he initiated may yet have practical and benef1cent results. As shrewd man of affairs, MT. Ford probably realized. before the peace ark Oscar II. had covered many leagues of ocean, that he had ''bit off more than he could chew" in attempting to "get the boys out of the trenches before Christmas'' If he had ever entertained such a notion. Little harm can come of the venture" said MT, Ford on the eve of sailing, land great good may result" He added: "It will keep alive the thought that peace is possible aslwell as desirable" This statement probably his real attitude toward the peace mission. Realizing the great power of advertising, and that war was getting much more publicity than peace, he engineered great ad- vertising campaign to set forth the merits of peace. Mr. Ford. before he became a peace emissary. got into the limelight by splitting large "helops'' with his employees. who are probably the best paid workmen in the world. He embarked in the automobile manu- facturing business aboht fourteen years ago with capital of s2S,00o He TOW employs about 30,000 people. and the latest report of his company showed assets of $S5,000,0 900 and cash in bank $43,000, ,000. About 600 of his work men are ex-convicts, and he declares they are among the best of his cm- ployes.
