OLD FORD RACER FOUND
'9ss" Beat Nile q Minute Record in
1904.


Ford Racer 1893" which in 1904
started the Ford reputation toward
Success by Beating the Mile Minute
record in the hands of Barney Oldfield
and Henry Ford, himself, was recently
discovered and bought by w. L. Hugh
son, Ford Dealer In San Francisco.
The car was cleaned up, shined and
insured for $4,000, and sent on an.
exhibition tour. It was shown at the
San Francisco Automobile Show and
proved to be great attraction.
This car made Its debut in 1904
when Henry Ford drove it to Success
at a speed Of one mile in 80 As Sec
onds on race track built on Balti-
more Bay. The Ford Times" Of July
1908, referring to 1899" says, ut won
race after race in every part Of the
country. It's performance was real
sensation, not only here but abroad,
and did as much to make known the
name of Ford as any other circum-
stance"
This same article, af.er Boosting of
the 10000 Ford owners-there are
now more than 1900, 000--Goes on to
tell why racing was discontinued. I'm
the early days Of the Industry Racing
undoubtedly stimulated business and
was Of benefit as trade bringer for a
new. product. Today il il unnecessary
to engage in races and stunts to
awaken interest-the interest is wide
awake and the problem is how best to
provide for that interest which a
growing demand for cars evidences.
There was a time though, when no
entry list was considered complete
until the Ford entry was in, and The
records of these four and five years
ago are replete with trfumphs of
Ford cars, guided to victory by such
expents as Henry Ford, Frank Kulick
and by Barney Oldfield."

STATIC AND TREASURY DEPART
MENTs OPPOSE PLAN OF
FERED BY FARMERS AND
GERMAN AGENT.
LIEN HELD AS NECESSARY EVIL
Senate Committees Fail to Act After
Hearing-See Move Up to War
Finance Body-Mr. Brauer
Here.

WASHINGTON urging
the establishment OF a huge credit in
European countries, Germany includ-
ed, by which market could be found
for American foodstuffs, were pre-
scented recently to the joint senate
committees on agriculture, finance and
forestry.
The chief argument was made by
J. r. Howard, representing the Ameri-
can Farm Bureau federation. No
definite action was taken and it was
the sentiment of the committee that
the objects desired could be best OBJ
tanned through the operation of the
war finance corporation, which is
about to be established.
Efforts to Great $1,000,000,000 credit
in the United States for Germany, as
a means of encouraging trade relations
and bringing relief to the agricultural
interests of the country, will not be
encouraged by the state or treasury
department.
Plans Held Impracticable.
High government officials regard
the proposition as impracticable and
unwise and will so advise the senate
committees on banking and cur
rency and agriculture.
The suggestion for the establish
ment of 81, 1000, 100000 credit for Ger
many, in which Austria may par
ticipate, is part of the program in
.augurated by the farmers organiza-
lions of the country, which see i'll this
plan an opportunity to market Amer
lean surplus foodstuffs.
The German side of the proposition
is represented by William Wallace
Brauer, who is here for the business
interests of Germany
. Mr.. Brauer has been in consultation
with Mr. Howard. While Mr.. Brauer
does not represent the German gov
eminent it is understood that Berlin
has applied to the reparations com
mission to acquire certain foodstuffs
by giving a priority lien on the tax
able returns of Germany.
1t is acknowledged that without
this priority lien it would be impos-
sible for Germany to give security for
the credit desired here. Even in that
event, according to government oftl-
Gals, it is doubtful If proper security
could be given.
No Balance Of Trade.
1t was pointed out here that even
in her most prosperous days before
the war; Germany was never able to
pile up balance of trade in her favor
of more than $500, 100000. Now that
she is shorn of her colonies, OF her
merchant marine, and parts OF her
territory, and is vainly endeavoring TO
liquidate her war debt and meet the
demands of the allies for Preparations,
she could hardly be expected to build
up any balance of trade at all.
