Henry Ford and Politics.

The editor Of Henry Ford's in

the Chicago Third party ConVen-

that the Presidency was not TO be
sought for and not to he refused.
II he had been nominated it would
only have been after platform
acceptable to him had been in
dorsed by the convention; and in
essence that platform would have
been, Put the United States on Its
Feet" He would have come to
Washington, if elected, not as a
marty leader. but to make the gov
ernment the front office of the peo-
ple's business" As for the outcome
of the convention, the Ford opinion
is that the decent and constructive
elements of the gathering were
Unanswered out of position by the
cranks. Mr.. Ford, apparently. is
not much interested in the foreign
relations OF the United States. His
whole emphasis is on making the
