wouldn't let them pay through the
House of Morgan, but let them send
the money to Cork where he was
building a tractor plant.
But the Jews in the House of Nor
gan didn't start Mr.. Ford against
the Jews. He had expressed him
self as against them long before
that, and I argued with him about
it long before l went with him, long
before the Dearbon Independent was
started, but I did not realize how
strong hold it was getting on him.
Mr.. Ford may really feel that it is
one of those thoughts that come to
him suddenly from some supernatur-
al source.
Liebold calls it "sub-conscious
mind"
Ford, palmer in terms, calls it a
"hunch."
Cameron now calls it, "Mr. Ford's
uncanny way of divining Ne truth"
Censors Ford's Correspondence.
Mr.. Ford's "hunch" did not come
in "uncanny" fashion from Sub
conscious" mind.
1t came from a mind very con-
scious of what was being done.
For many years, Mr.. Liebold, en-
joying the full confidence Of Mr..
Ford as his private secretary, has
decreed what correspondence and in
formation should and should not
reach Mr.. Ford.
Mr.. Ford may not have always
kept within the bounds imposed by
Liebold, and often read clippings
outside of those sent by Liebold, but
the door to the Ford mind was al
ways open to anything Liebold want
ed to shove in it, and during that
time Mr.. Ford has developed his dis
like for the Jews, a dislike which has
grown stronger and more bitter as
time went on.
In one way and another the feel
ing has oozed into his system until
it has become part of his living
self.
/ am sure that Mr.. Ford actually
believes there is a combination of
international Jews to bring on an
other war for profit"
] have heard him say that he can
prove it.
That must be taken as an express
sion of belief on his part rather than
a statement Of fact.
He has been told so.
No Proof of Conspiracy"
But they have no proof and have
had none and can produce none.
They assert an international con-
spiracy and, asked for proof, rail
out against the movies.
They would have US fear the down.
fall Of our nation as a result Of jew
ish domination Of international af-
fairs and, asked for proof, talk about
the "Orientap mind.
They say they are not anti-Sem-
itic and hire detectives to hunt the
run down against any Jew or Jews
individually and collectively, and
find that an owner Of show play
once sold theatre tickets on the
streets Of New York.
They charge an international con-
spiracy and, asked for proof, assert

to have an understanding about that,
for am going to mention Germany
some more in this article and maybe
in others.
am not bringing in Germany
through prejudice either for or
against the people, but because facts
force it.
Pipp Of German Birth.
In writing what I do I have no
inherent prejudice against the Ger
mans merely as Germans. I have
a prejudice against their militarism,
the domineering Prussian officials,
and some Of their methods, but not
against the ordinary men and wo-
men of German birth.
My mother was born in germany
and left there SO years ago, her
father coming to this state a Luth-
eran preacher, she then to young to
remember anything about her native
land, and having only such Of its
traditions as she got from her father
in his land of the free.
My father was German, too. The
name Pipp is French, a contraction
of the old French name Of Pippin,
but the blood was German or SO
nearly so that one would have to 60
back a great many generations to
find any French blood in the veins.
The Germans were and are great
nation on propaganda.
During the war their printing
presses were as busy as their guns.
They would write whole book on
science to get in a few paragraphs,
or pages at most, OF propaganda
against England.
During the war, England gather
ed all the books she could get hold
of that were sent out by Germany
as propaganda against GermMy's
enemies. Samples Of each were kept
in q room in London and there were
more than two thousand Of them,
and they were marvels Of their kind.
More than one hundred years ago,
some one in Belgium made q very
clever and bitter attack on England.
That was reproduced in every detail,
the type was made to match it, the
paper matched and the binding imi-
tated so cleverly that one would real
ly think he was getting an original
print.
w. ]. Bryan once wrote q drastic
criticism of England's treatment Of
India. A stack Of pamphlets lay on
a table there. I counted 20 Of them,
all in different languages, all the
Bryan article-printed in Germany.
German Propaganda.
I put q whole day in that room
studying German propaganda and
then left that ] had learned only q
very small part Of what was actually
true, that there must have beer
many hidden facts that I never could
learn.
Since the war, Germany has turn
ed many Of those presses toward. thu
Jews.
The Jew is denounced and revilet
much after the same fashion that h,
is being assailed here, only they have
gone further in Germany.
There are two distinct reasons why
the Germans went against the Jews

Mexico should have high class,

would personally contribute $1O0 To-
ward corn show prize for such an

Others are also talking of the need
for such an entertainment and will no
doubt give as literally. This being
Centennial year pageant could be a
part Of the affair and both the stud
ents Of M. M. A. and Hardin would
be glad to participate in this.
The general feeling here is that
Mexico should have a fall festival
every year and that the Chamber of
Commerce should take il up at once
and start plans as time will be re-
quired to work out all the details.
Renewed interest in the saddle horse
business would mane night horse

MONDAYS RAIN
ASSURES CORN;
FALL Is GENERAL

A rain of IL inches that fell Mon
day night is said by farmers to be a
virtual assurance Of the corn crop and
an assurance that there will be good
one.
The early prospects for corn were
fine and with a fairly large acreage
planted farmers were optimistic until
the dry weather of July put kink
in their optimism.
Four rains that have fallen during
the past week have taken about all
the curls out however, not only from
their optimism, but those that were
beginning to come in the corn stalks
themselves. More than 2 inches Of
rain has fallen in the last seven days
and telephone reports indicate that
it has been general.
The thermometer too took a slump
for the better Monday and dropped
from 81 to 6S, making sleep little
more popular.
In spite of three weeks drought
during the last month the rainfall
for July was about normal, the rains
of July A and those of the last week
both being heavy ones.
Last month was. not une hottest July
we have had either, a perusal of the
weather mans records show. In 1901,
for instance there were 18 days when
the mercury passed the century mark
and one day it hit liz. Records kept
as far back as 1892 by J. F. Llewellyn
show only two other Julys when the
mercury climbed above 100.
