Henry Ford for Senator

Since he headed his crazy ex-
petition to Europe to get the
boys out of the trenches Henry
Ford has presented works meet
for repentance. Individually,
there is no more willing or pow
erful supporter of the war. At
President Wilson's urgent re-
quest" Mr.. Ford says, he has
decided to accept the nomination
for United States Senator from
Michigan if rendered him. The
Democrats of Michigan have in
conference declared their will
ingness to support Mr.. Ford,
though a Republican, if the Re-
publicans nominate him at the
primaries next August. Doubt.
less the Republican party OF
Michigan will welcome this acces'
sion of Democratic votes for
Republican nominee and for sc
important an Office. The wal
administration. on the Other
hand, will gladly welcome in the
Senate a Republican supporter Of
the war program. 1t looks as
though everybody would be sat
