war; How? Why. II all the papers got
together and demanded II and made the
people realize what 1t means to them
public opinion would stop 1t pretty
quickly.
Il o regret a single thing I have
even a single day we vii, have saved IS
many men as our factory has at work
turning out 1000 cars u day. And I
believe that the sentiment we have
aroused by making the people think
will shorten the war. Nothing done In
IA good cause can fail. I did not want
to go to Europe. ! have a Job in De-
troit and I want to get back to II. but
would 60 over again II II were neces-
Sary.'
Mr.. Ford denied iatly that there was
any lighting mons the peace delegates.
There was a difference Of opinion many
times he admitted. lust as there would
be ut a church convention. or a political
convention. or In IA village. You must
remember that the group we took over
was virtually a community. They were
people with strong opinions and they
didn't always ugree. Nobody does that
unless he 10 a mollycoddle, n ] assure
you there were no m~ollycoddles on
boa d. But let me say positively that
the peace party left the ship In perfect
harmony"
The pacifst leader denied further that
Louis Lochner, his press agent. had been
deposed as leader Of the party after
Mr.. Ford's departure and that CASTOR
Plaintiff. general manager of the Ford
Motor Company. had succeeded him.
ut was always understood that Mr..
PLAINTIFF was to take tho leadership" he
said. "Ha was my business agent. Mr..
Lochner was my secretary and was
never expected to manage the finances
Of the party"
He was certain that his absence
would have no III effect on the morale
or the determination OF his followers.
ct will rave no more effect than my
going to Europe had on the Ford fac
tory he said. They are under efi-
cient management. they are sincere and
they are all on one mission"
lie did not know what his plans would
be. II was not a question OF health, but
Of what was best TO do. He expected TO
stay until this afternoon and take the
5 o'clock train for Detroit, possibly
spending a short time during the day
at the Automobile Show. Hut he re-
peated again his assurances that. ever
though he did not want I o do II, he
would gladly return to the peace party
IL II should prove advisable.
Bryan Pleased.
II was 80 o'clock last night be-
fore MIR. Bryan reached the Waldorf
and went to the Ford apartment, For
an hour he II the automobile maker
were closeted together and then the
newspaper men. who had been waiting
patiently below since shortly after y.
SAINT fnr Mr. vryat mat than, A.,
a room at the other end OF the hall,
for Mr.. Livingston had been complain
ing that the pacifst was worn out from
| the stream OF MESA GEES and friends that
had been at his doc throughout the
day. and Mrs. Ford was protesting that
she had mot had ive consecutive min
utss with her husband all day"
I'm glad to see Mr.. Ford In such
| good health after his Illness" said MIR.
Bryan. ~ think his expedition has
achieved y great deal OF success. II
achieved = partial success even before
1t sailed. for the mere discussion OF
peace that Il started was an advantage
THE presence of the peace party In
foreign countries stimulated the talk Of
peace there beyond doubt, aud the in.
formation that the members Of the
party will get on the other side will aid
them In the discussion of peace ques'
tons when they return here. There is
a great advantage in the fact that Il
man in Mr.. Ford's position should devote
himself So whole heartedly and so dis
in,erestedly to a movement OF such i'm
%portance."
do you think II has shortened the
war" Mr.. Bryan was asked.
How can any one say" he answered
W hope il has. but all W. know Is
that every day brings the end so mucl
nearer"
