DETROIT, Feb. 5.-Henry Ford
has met the FIRST business reverse in
his unparalleled career. As a result
OF it he has begun a complete reor-
Eanization and renovation of his im-
mense manufacturing industry and
he has started at the top.
Wages OF factory employees-the
highest paid in any industry to the
kind of labor utilized-have not been
reduced and, 50 far as anybody in
Detroit knows, they will not be re-
duced. But Mr.. Ford has already
discharged eight or ten OF his most
highly paid executives-who have
been with him for from 10 to IA years
and many more are slated for dis
mbssal. 1t has been given out that
various reasons, but the fact Of the
matter is they were asked TO resign
and this fact is generally known in
Detroit,
Some Of the men who have been
separated from the Ford enterprises
have stated that they quit because
they could not agree with Mr.. Ford
on business policies. There is a basis
OF truth in that However, the NOV
ing cause Of the dismissals is Mr..
Ford's belief that his executives have
not been delivering results equivalent
to their salaries.
Whether Mr.. Ford, who is. quite
temperamental, blames his executives
for not foreseeing and preparing for
tie slump in orders which caused the
shutdown of the Ford plant last De-
cember is known only to himself and
tho few who are in his confidence.
Experts in factory management say
that Mr.. Ford probably does enter
tain the belief that his high-prced
managers fell down on the job, but
they say further that Mr.. Ford has
more probably arrived at the belief
after many years, that such salaries
a he has beeh paying to his eKecu-
tives constitute an incentive to waste.
It may be that one OF these outside
factory management experts got TO
Mr.. Ford and filled him full Of food
for thought. They form a highly or
Eanized and aggressive profession or
craft in these times. One of them
said TO me in the Hotel Statler last
night, when the subject Of Henry
Ford came up-as it always does in
conversation in Detroit:

BABYS ADOPTION STANDS.
Brooklyn Court Gives "Dresden

ter parents Mr.. and Mrs. Charles G.

proved, and she began a legal fight TO
recover the little girl.

MAY PAY NEW STAFF ACCORD
ING TO RESULTS.

ct take It that Mr.. Ford contem-
pla ties building up another executive
STAY. He will probably gather in men
from other manufacturing orGaniEa-
tions and he will probably pay them
more money than they are getting
now and give them additional re-
wa rds, according to what they can
show for the benefit OF the business.
You may safely reckon that their di-
rect pay won't be more than onc-third
of the emoluments Of the men they
splaCe."
Among the Ford executives VINO
have walked the plank are Frank l..
Klingensmith, Vice President and
Treasurer, rumOTed salary Sl50OO0 a
year who was supposed 10 know more
about The finances OF the Ford or
anization than anybody else; w. G.
Anderson, European agent; Harold
Wills, engineer; John r. Lee, head OF
the sociology department; Norval
Hawkins, sales manager, and Charles
l.. Brownell, publicity director. The
Rev. Dean S. S. Marquis, head OF the
welfare depa rtment, whose salary was
comparatively small-S10,0O n year
has handed in his resignation.

HIGH SALARtEo EXECUTIVES
DIDN'T DELIVER THE GOODS.

Henry Ford has been paying his
executives and some other officers of
his company the highest salaries in
the world. You will find here and
there a man in a great organization
who is getting as much or more than
the highest paid Of Ford's men, but
no organization in existence ever paid
so many men 50 much money for
their services,
THE business has grown like a
thing manipulated by magic. Money
has arrived in a golden stream. The
Ford products-motor cars, tractors,
parts-practicaHy sell themselves.
Manufacturer appreciate that the
actual physical work of producing
Ford cars is the acme of efficiency
and economy. The men in the fac
tories are worked right up TO the
limit of their endurance and they are
well paid for it. II one man makes
a slip in the Ford manufacturing
system he slows up a dozen or twenty
or fifty other men and the workers
are keen to avoid slips because they
know there are two men outside in
the employment office waiting for
every job.
THE production system is all right,
but manufacturers have long been
convinced that Mr.. Ford's executive
system was all wrong. He has been
paying men from $4,000 a year 70
$4,000, and as high as $4,000 year,
for work that Is done in other plants
by men drawing from $4,000 TO $780,
900 a year
'"While the Ford company has been
saving in the factory by the utiliza-
tlon of concentration and ingenious
methods, II has been wasting in
other directions, because money hasn't
meant anything TO the executives
They have never had any incentive
20 save. Easy money means easy
mana cement processes.

WEAKEST LINK IN ROAD
SYSTEM IS MAINTENANCE

The weakest link in our American
system Of improved highways is it's
I methods OF maintenance. We shall
never achieve real progress In good
roads development until we remedy
this condition, says Alexander John
son In Motor. =
II is the present habit among road
builders In this country to lay down a
hard surfaced road and then leave II
trustingly In the hands OF Providence.
This bespeaks a bland and childlike
habit or thought which is inspiring,
hut unhappily it Is costing the coun-
try good many hundreds Of millions
Of dohars in premature repair expenses
and needless rebuilding costs. No 9TH
er product OF mans constructional
genius Is subject TO quite as many
vicIsitudes OF wear and exposure as
the highway surface. Millions OF ve-
lIcles OF varying weight are passing
over the road surface every year. In
addition II is subject to constant attack
by the elements, rain, snow, sun, cold
and heat. All are free TO do their
worst. And they take full advantage
of their license. The total cost Of re-
pair and rebuilding operations thereby
made necessary would stagger not hu-
manity, but the taxpaying section.
thereof II patrolman is constantly
watching any given strip Of highway
and on the first sign OF a break gives
first aid or summons the repair gang
to DO a somewhat more ambitious job.
there will be no pot holes TO develop
into great gashes that necessitate re-
building. II is the old saying Of the
stitch in time.r Any one of our really
effective road surfaces will last for
years enough to make an adequate re-
turn on the money invested in 1t, II IL
Is given proper attention. II the "if'
could be eliminated there would be no
more stories OF highways built from
the proceeds OF bond issues and re-
built long before the amortization OF
the original bonds. And that is pre-
cisely the sort of financial wild-catting
that makes good roads progress diff
cult.

In France the Jobs Of highway pa

The pay is not large. but the patrol

Suppose our hard surfaced highway
system eventually comprises 100000
miles. A patrolman with a small mo-
tor car TO carry his tools and materi-
aia could handle ten miles OF road go-
ing over his DISTRICT every day and
making any needed repairs. A force
OF 10000 patrolmen would cover the
entire road system. II we placed the
