FORD To PROCEED WITH
GIGANTIC IMPROVEMENTS
Puts Up $10,000,00O Bond to
Protect DisgruntIed Stock
holders in Detroit.

Detroit. Jan. 6.-Henry Ford, presi-
dent of the Ford Motor company, was
today allowed TO proceed with the con-
struction of $4,000, 900 smelter on the
Detroit river near this city. The three
circuit judges presiding at the injunc-
tion suit brought against Ford by the
Dodge Brothers company accepted a
bond of $1O,000,0O0 to secure the
Dodges from any possible losses.
The bond was furnished by Henry
Ford. Horace H. Racksham and Frank
l.. Klingensmth. The bond is to Sc
cure the Ford Motor company from
any possible loss which might result
from work on the smelter up to the
final disposition of the case.
John f. Dodge and Horace e. Dodge,
who are stockholders of the Ford
company, charged that Ford's plans
for spending great sums of money for
developing the eompany's business
were reckless and unwise" and peti-
toned that Ford be compelled to dis
burse the company's profits as divi
dends. Henry Ford owns 81 per cent
of the stock of the company. The
Dodge brothers own 10 per cent.

Ships Are Oil Burners.

Every capital ship and every de-
stroyer is now designed to burn oil
and oil only" Secretary Daniels wrote
Senator Tillman, land the features OF
the design are such that 1t Is impos-
sible to return to the use of coal. The
speed of our destroyers and battle
cruisers would be impossible of at
tainment with anything but Oil.
'It Is therefore of the highest inn
portance to the nation that the oil in
these lands be reserved for the use
of the navy. We do not want the
value of the oil but we want to pre-
serve the oil so that We may be as
sured of a supply for our ships, and
il we are to be placed in such po-
sition of inferiority as we would be
il forced to abandon the use of oil
the condition would be one of national
humiliation"
