The following letter shows that
a move is gaining Roadway for the
pooling of the entire wool clip of
the mountain states.
To the Flockmasters of Idaho,
Montana, Utah and Wyoming:
Gentlemen:
There never was a time when
the flockmaster of the Northwest
needed as large a price for his wool
clip as he needs at this time; there
never was clip of wool from this
section that cost as much as the
1920 wool clip cost; there never
was a time when it was as diff
cult for the flockmaster to obtain
the approximate cost of his clip
OF wool as it is at this time: and
there never was time when all
the flockmasters in this section
could work together, through a
commission, for their complete mt
tual benefit as they can at this time.
/ believe that if we do not Join
hands in pooling this wool and do
not place it in the hands of one
commission of our best men to sell
for us, the flockmasters will not
receive twenty-five cents on the
dollar of its actual cost, and / be-
lieve too that eighty per cent of
our flockmasters will find them
selves Utterly ruined before the
close of the present year.
believe that have a complete
mailing list of all the fockmasters
in the four states named above and
am sending this letter 10 them,
$500 in all, hoping they will join
in pool of this wool, place it in the
hands of a commission of nine of
our best men, empowering such
commission to handle the sale of
this wool for the year of 1920,
where it has not been sold, and for
the year 1921. The commission
should be composed of two men
from each of the four states, Sc
lected by the flockmasters in their
respective states. A ninth com
missioner should be selected by
all the flockmasters in the four
states to the end the commission
would never be locked and unable
to act.
There are in the four states for
the two years approximately one
hundred and thirty million pounds
of wool. Our commission with
amount Of wool to sell will be able
to command the attention of all
who desire to purchase wool.
A hundred million dollar for
eign trade finance corporation is
being formed and it is possible
that all this wool if pooled may be
sold through this corporation to
the nations of Europe. An in
dividual flockmaster would be
unable to get the hearing from
this corporation or from foreign
nations that this commission would
be able to obtain.
This commission should be Sc
lected in the very same manner
the directors of the Federal Re
sere Banks are selected. Under
the plan each flockmaster would
have the right ii nominate men of
his own. choosing, send the nom
nations in, then ballots would be
prepared showing the nominations
and the balloting would be on these
ballots with the knowledge Of the
nominations as to number.
am enclosing herewith the pro-
posed agreement for signing by
those fockmasters who are willing
to join the pool. l believe this COM
mission of nine of our strongest

EDSEL FORD, son of
A Henry Ford

that MIR. Ford does not make a prac-
tice of giving interviews. The usual
route to an interview with the auto
mobile manufacturer when he is in
Dearborn is through his secretary.
Those who try it may abandon hope
in advance. To reach this secretary
is task in itself To get him in
terested in Ford interview Is like
trying to walk on the water of the
artificial lake in front of the tractor
factory. He can't be approached
with any success on the subject.
The Tribune interviewer did not
see Mr.. Ford's secretary. Another
official in the employ of the multi
millionaire manufacturer was found
with humanity in his heart. He was
sympathetic, but again the channel
led through the office Of the secre-
tary. 1t looked like failure. The
sympathetic official however, despite
his poweriessness in the matter, had
ell the attributes of the true gentle
man that he is. The Tribune's In
terview with Mr.. Ford must trace
indirectly, perhaps, back to him. He
asked The Tribune reporter to lunch
con in the little lunchroom near
the tractor plant. 1t was sheer
decency and good will to do so. AS
matters developed, it was one of
the kindest acts he has perhaps ac-
complished fer months.
Sitting at a large round table in
the lunchroom was Henry Ford,
chatting on current topics with his
officials. The Tribune man was in
troduced, but not as reporter. 1t
was only from respect for the host
that Henry Ford was not button
New-York tribune., 1921-02-20
ANY One Will Do

Finally the youth informs you
that your official will be ''over" and
eventually he came "over" on his
way home somewhere in Dearborn.
Efforts to ascertain where Ford
officials live in Dearborn are futile
at the general store. They know
there, but they won't tell; they are
just that cautious. The reason is,
perhaps, that another reporter is on
the trail. Or perhaps these store
folks are Just naturally that eau
tious with every suspicious charac-
ter who tries to cross the barrier.
But Henry Ford, the most ap-
p,oachable, perhaps, Of all Of Amer
ica's multimillionaires, has had no
hand in the red-tape precautions
that the stranger finds at his gates.

aversion to newspaper men; is ex-

perhaps much misunderstood by ths

NAL permission to speak with Mr..
Ford for publication seemed to be
through the tortuous and uncertain
maze Of the secretary's Office, ''fn-
stinct born of experience told The
Tribune man that all would be lost
if the temptation to buttonhole then
and there in the lunchroom was al
lowed to persist. Putting aside the
embarrassment which might have
been caused the host for unwitting-
ly perpetrating newspaper plot to
interview, the temptation was one of
the greatest perhaps in the history
Of newspaperdom.
Henry Ford passed out the door
and back into the solitude of months
in the factory beyond. And The
Tribune man soon after went back
to Detroit with sense of decency
and ethics at the expense of a GER
tain kind Of enterprise.

and mildly wonder what it is Of his
business, anyway.
"Wall, you take run over there
to the general store and tell 'em
about it; they'll phone, and if it's
all right they'll give me the high
sign and I'll let you through" in
forms the watchman.
1t is probably a good precaution,
and no one blames MIR. Ford, but it
is inconvenient, and you cross the
street to the general store.
Once inside, there may be noted q
stock of goods that leaves nothing
to be desired. A gentleman in a white
apron is cutting a round steak off q
hindquarter of beef. The customer
waits. A youth is selling another
buyer couple of boxes Of breakfast
food. The next customer, Ford
employee, wants pair of rubbers
and can of tomatoes. And finally
you fdget around from the more
elderly man in the apron to the
youth of the breakfast food, rub
bcrs and tomatoes until yon have the
undivided attention of the latter.
You name an official of the Ford

cial and parental endowment OF
physique which would make a far
better mechanic than q member of
the literati. But something happened
in the Office of that hospitable Ford
official as The Tribune man rumbled
over the interurban road Illuminating
on three or four other strategic plans
to work back toward an interview
which fitted out of hand in the lit
tie Dearborn restaurant. These
plans are not necessary to the story.
Fate decreed that they were not to
be needed.
From Mr.. Ford himself and the
official came the story of post
luncheon developments.
who was that young fellow with
you at lunch?" asked Ford as he
dropped into the officials Office.
THAT was Forrest, of The New
York Tribune, who came all the way
from New York to talk to you," re-
piled the official.
We'll, why didn't he talk to me
when he was introduced" queried
the manufacturer.
"He felt that it would be taking
advantage" defended the official.

Laper clan has met at Dearborn for
more than year.
My second return to Dearborn was
on the following morning, bright and
early. There were the same mis-
givings en- route from the inter
urban to the guarded railway cross
ing, the same rebuff by the guard
and the same delay at the general
store. Officials just across the track
were "not in." Finally the youth
of breakfast food and rubbers got
interested. He volunteered to take
q note across to the official I wanted
TO see. The note was penned, and
he commented as he pulled his cap
from a peg near the cannon stove
in the corner:

the youth promises to telephone. He
sells box of matches and a bar of
soap before he does the trick.
And then he tells you that the Off
cial is not in and will not be in. Then
he waits on another customer. You
name another official. He phones
again between sales and the answer
is the same. Finally you insist on
other officials and eventually make it
a broad-gauge request-"any off,

BY Wilbur Forrest

wv HEN Henry Ford, the
Nv worlds greatest manufac-
w turer of automobiles,
broke silence Of more than a year
in Detroit week ago to talk for
publication he did so because the
multimillionaire Ford to to-day has
the same mechanical turn of mind
of the mechanic Henry Ford Of the
comparative yesterday.
It isn't often that the wandering
newspaper man writes his expert
ences of mechanical newsgathering.
In the same proportion the stage
hand is reticent when the man who
pays 81 for an orchestra seat
seeks the knowledge that lies be-
hind the wings. But it will not be
confessing secrets of newspaper
dom, folding back the wings or let
ting out the mysteries OF any magic
art to confess that interviewing
Henry Ford for The Tribune was a
combination of the interviewer
horseshoe" luck and a series
Of circumstances which revolved
around Mr.. Ford's mechanical mind.
Boiled down, the interviewer
looked like he might have made a
better mechanic than a writer and
Henry Ford's mechanical mind led
him to seek an interview with the
wonldha interviewer.
