The Nv international movement so far

upon n common respect for law and jus

righteousness for the removal OF causes
Of international war and for the sup

the unive stiles are to play powerful

lest a shallow and superficial sentiment

FORD BLAMES WAR
ON SELFISH WORLD

IT Simply Had to Break,
He Says.
OPPORTUNITY, AIM NOW
His Paper Sees "MOre Science
Behind Nut and Bolt Than
Professor Ever Knew"

DEARBoRv, Mich, Jan. s.-Henry
Fords hitherto. unpublished views on the
causes OF the world war are printed on
Mr.. Ford's Own Page" in the first is
sue OF the Dearborn Independent, which
appears tomorrow.
There IL a great deal OF discussion
In the newspapers concerning RESPONSE
bility for the war" says Mr.. Ford
Everybody seems to be asking who
started it, and many guesses are made.
The war began in a bad condition every
wherc-a condition which simply had to
break because II was 30 bad. Individ-
uals may have seized the occasion
for their own personal ends, hut there
was a world condition that made 1t pos
sible for them to do so.
The world was simply fostering with
selfshness. Men OF power regarded
workingmen as factory fodder. Well.
there are men who exploit their human
brothers as factory fodder who make
money for themselves.
I'VE were all chasing the things that
glitter and have no substance. Life
was becoming pretty much OF show.
We were losing what respect we had for
Jaw. Public life was debased. The needs
OF the party rather than the needs of
the people Influenced too much of our
legislation.
We were piling up mountains OF Inu-
nitions-great mountains OF tools for
man killing.
We thought society could remain
healthy with one part suffering need
and the other part rolling in luxury.
1--WE thought that system which
stepped on one man because he was
poor and bowed before another because
he was rich was going TO last.

Question of Opportunity.

opportunity often hides in the simple
things which are despi~ed by people OF
high notions says Mr.. Ford. Don't
stand around looking up at the sky
Look around your feet You will find
opportunity on your back doorstep We
are only in the dawn Of things as yet.
The man who sees is master.
ANY place Is good place TO start
from. Opportunity will not overlook
you because YOU wear overalls and your
hands are grimy with work Oppor-
tunity often lodges the front office and
shakes hands with the fellow at the last
machine down at the far end of the
shop.
There is more science behind bolt
and a nut than any professor ever
knew. A good man makes a good job
and a good start is made when man and
Job become good friends.
"One Of the benefits which will result
from a large development OF new indus
trial ideas will he the decrease o, ab-
sentee ownership. When only a few
lines are open the speculative capitalists
are always irving got hold OF what
another has built up. They want II not
to make II better and bigger. but TO OK
plot IL. The only interest they have in
the business or the product is the dollars
they can squeeze out.
Their game is not honest II is not
human. II doesn't produce anything
They are merely gambling in what other
men have built up by hard work and
honest dealing
"A business ought TO he, something
more than n mere source OF money. II
ought to show worth while product
and healthy proft. But II ought to
show some thing more. The product will
wear out. A business makes men az
