MARION, o.. Jan. s.--Represen-
tative Butler, of Pennsylvania,
chairman of the House naval COM
mittee, was called into conference
today by President -elect Harding to
consider means for reducing naval
expenditures without impairing the
efficiency of the nations first line
defense. Although favoring navy
strong enough to insure safety to
American shores and to American
commerce, the President-elect feels
that much of the present expendi-

be dispensed with by exercise OF
greater economy and il possible the
navy's building program could be
safely curtailed.

it, pick out one line, point to it and
say: "They have got it on US there;
that must be corrected"
A man who would say the same
thing to his face wouldn't last 80
seconds.
Mr.. Liebold and Mr.. Ford were
talking again.
They were talking about the Jews
this time.
Mr.. Ford made statement. He
thought 1t was original with him. I
had heard Mr.. Leibold make the
same statement before.
Jew, Favorite Topic.
In the last months Of my connec-
ton with the Ford paper as its editor
no subject could come up but Mr..
Leibold would ring in the Jew, and
Mr. Ford would, too.
II became nauseating.
1t was nauseating to Cameron who
now writes the articles against the
Jews.
1t was nauseating to Roland.
1t was nauseating to myself.
Roland, who was and is associate
editor and special writer on the pa
per, used to rail out about il fierce
ly, while Cameron would dish up his
biting bits Of sarcasm, and give vent
to expressions Of uttermost disgust.
/ recall once, when Roland lot
back from Mexico.
Liebold had been down to Mexico
and Ford expected to start a trac-
tor plant there, and so there was a
sort Of general conference about it.
Roland told Of something of a
change Of attitude as between the
Catholic clergy and others. Liebold
always had an explanation with the
Jew at the bottom Of It.
"0h, understand gil about that"
said Liebold, "the Jew money lend
ers Of Europe induced the Pope to
. order his priests in Mexico to do so
and So" and he proceeded with stuff
so sickening that one could not listen
II out in patience.
The whole stuff Of us were a be-
draggled looking lot Of dishrags that
day.
But the hopelessness Of II all was
in the fact that Mr.. Ford was eat
ing up all Of that sort Of stuff that
was dished up to him and was re-
senting more and more any express
sions Of sanity that might be put
out to counteract the poison that
was being fed him.
Ignorant Of Cause.

put on the witness stand he could
not tell to save his life just when
and how he got started against the
Jews.
am sure that Liebold could tell.
Mr.. Liebold not only Is tanning
the flame Of anti-Semitism in Mr.
Ford's brain but he struck the match
that liz the fire.
Mr.. Ford might tell you that he
sold some tractors to England sew
eral years ago, and that the money
was due for them and that he went
to New York to the banking house
Of the Morgans to get the money, a
couple Of million or so, and that the

ly' Of current issue. His statement
is appended.
What Started Ford Against the Jews
E. G. Liebold was talking.
He was talking to Henry Ford.
Mr.. Liebold is Mr.. Ford's private
secretary.
Mr.. Liebold titled back his chair,
unbuttoned his coat, put his thumbs
into the armholes Of his vest, ex-
banded his chest, and said:
"Mr. Ford, YOU don't have to
think; YOUR thoughts come to you
like q flash, from q sub conscious
mind, and you have your problems
solved"
Mr.. Ford, who usually sits we'll
settled down in his chair, straight
ened up a bit, his shoulders went
back bit, his chin raised bit, and
his eyes sparkled.
A look Of satisfaction spread itself
over Mr.. Liebold's countenance.
It was the look Of satisfaction
which comes to a mans face when he
feels that he has put something
over.
And, oh, the pity Of it ALI
Mr.. Ford, in one way Is unlike
many rich men who have acquired
their riches quickly, and in another
way he is like them.
Unlike many Of them, Mr.. Ford
has acquired nothing that smacks Of
the snob. He is q plain, lovable
man to be with and talk with. He
has the viewpoint Of the average
man, the interest Of humanity. II
q man works for him he wants that
man to work; he has no use for q
laggard or a shirk, but he wants the
man well paid for his work, so that
his family may be we'll provided for.
But like many another rich man,
Mr.. Ford surrounds himself with
flatterers, and they know It. That
was true Of Carnegie; 1t was true Of
Rockefeller, the years Of his great
est trouble with the public; II is true
to a great extent Of Munsey.
But there lie q certain contradic-
tory element in his nature that you
must know to understand the real
Henry Ford.
Suspects No Flattery.
The flattery from word Of mouth
appeals to him BRIGHTLY unless he
suspects It Of being flattery-then,
good night. But IL one once gets his
confidence, It can be smeared on
pretty thick and Mr.. Ford seems to
like II, and the men who fawn on
him make the best Of It.
But the printed word Of flattery
appeals to him not at all, or very lit

A SENATORIAL JOKE

When the legislature was trying to
adjourn and one house was waiting
on the other, both houses waiting
for committees to report their con-
ferences, they often put on lot of
stunts of different kinds to fill in the
time.
Senator Thomas was presiding in
the senate and Joel Priest, industrial
agent Of the Oregon Short Line, was
called on for speech. He was not
a member of the Senate, but hap
pened to be among the spectators and
he responded with his usual line of
bunk.
Among other things he said, "Now,
gentlemen, you are about to return
to your homes and you have my per-
mission to go and make your peace
as best you can with your constitu-
ents and to build all the political
fences you want to as long as you
don't build any on the right-of-way
of the Oregon Short Line. AS l look
over the faces in this senate, | see
a good many gentlemen here who
will never return" When Mr. Priest
said that they began to throw things
at him and he brought his speech to
an abrupt close.

SECRETARY BEGINS LABORS

H. A. Benson has taken up the
work of his new task as secretary Of
the fair and is studying an account
ing system for the purpose of putting
the accounts in the condition that
will harmonic with the system in use
at the auditors office at the court
house.
Mr.. Benson says he does not know
much about fairs, has never had any
experience in such a position and
frankly stated that to the county
commissioners when they talked to
him about taking the position. He
said they seemed to want an account
ing system above almost anything
else and after going over the situa-
tion thoroly he accepted their offer,
to take the position. He says he
will greatly appreciate it If he can
have the support and cooperation Of
the town and county.

LESSONS IN NURS-
ING PROGRESSING

Mrs. Elizabeth Morton, the nurse
who took up teaching sanitation and
nursing in the home in this county.
is progressing with the work in a
very satisfactory manner. She gives
lessons twice a week at Rose, Grove
land, Moreland, Riverside, Rockford
and Thomas. s#
The lessons are given at 10 o'clock
and at about 1.30, no two lessons be-
ing given on the same day at the
same place. She drives from one
settlement to another between los
sons. She has about forty in most of
the classes and it is not too late for
girls and women to join if they wish
to take upthe work. The tuition is
free, but a person can get more out
of the work If they buy one of the
books that has the lessons where they
can take the book home to study. The
book costs 81. Sixteen lessons will
be given in each community before
the work is finished. Mrs. Morton
will then start classes in six other
communities probably in the upper
or northern end of the county and
will spend eight weeks in that work.

EXAMPLE OF ADVANTAGES
OF ORGANIZATION

The growers of Grimm alfalfa seed
have sold 100000 pounds of their
product in the last few months at
SO cents a pound and yet got it to
the consumers at about 8 cents a
pound lower than they had been
getting it, The seed was sold thru
the farm bureau of the state of
Michigan, growers here guaranteed
the seed to the farm bureau and the
bureau guaranteed it to the farmers.
If our growers had not organized,
if they had not stood together in
guaranteeing the purity Of their seed
and standing for the same price, the
seed brokers would have obtained
their crop at about 80 cents pound.
These brokers in turn would have
sold it so that it would have cost 55
cents or so cents to the consumers.
Then if any of this seed had fallen
into the hands of INSCRIPTIONS seed
men, they would have mixed it with
other seed and sold it as pure Grimm
alfalfa seed from Idaho. That in
turn would have defrauded the pur-
chasers and hurt the market for
Idaho seed. When the Grimm grow
ers united they not only get the
better price for their product, but
they sold it to people who are able
to guard it's purity and thus protect
the purchaser.
The immediate cash advantage to
the Grimm growers was 100000 and
this money had already been distri-
buted among the seed growers in the
Springfield, Sterling and Aberdeen
country. Grimm alfalfa seed is said
to be the only agricultural product
that has not fallen in price the last
few months and the present prospect
is that it will stay at a high level
because of the great demand for it.
When organizing enables people to
put out better product at a lower
price and at the same time to benefit
and protect the consumers, it Is
pretty good organization.

Nurse Will Leave
After Two Months
Valuable Service

| Miss Brose, the drawing teacher,
and Miss Countryman are preparing a
health poster exhibit which will be
given later. The children are work
ing very hard to make this one of the
best exhibits ever shown in Black
foot and we hope that the parents
will not miss seeing it when the time
is appointed for it to be held. The
best posters will be sent to Boise and
exhibited in the state poster contest
which is being given by the Idaho
Anti-tuberculosis association. Some
very worth while prizes are to be
given.
The pupils of the Central school
had their second weighing and meas
uring last week. Miss Purvis' room
is proud of having the highest num-
Der, who were gaining this past
month. Only few children lost in
weight which was due in most cases
to sickness. The children are very
much excited over the weighing and
a large number reported that they
had been trying to have the proper
kind or food and rest the past month
so as to enable them to make their
normal weight.
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday
Of last week were spent in the
Sisters school. Every child in the
school has taken an active part in
the health crusade. Visiting day for
the parents was very we'll attended
and excellent cooperation given by
all.
Last week Miss Countryman I'm
ished the work at the Irving school.
The parents and children seemed to
take an unusual interest. Friday
afternoon thirty-nine parents visited
the school to have personal talk
with the nurse.
This week Miss Countryman is
working in the high school. Her
work will close in Blackfoot as soon
as this school has been inspected.
Several adjoining towns are asking |
for her services and those who have
raised sufficient funds from the
Xmas seal sale will have it's equiva-
lent in demonstration. We are in
hopes that Blackfoot may have
permanent school nurse next year, or
sooner if possible, to carry on the
work in the schools.

Killed Him With Kindness
Another man reports of having a
talk with man who had been in the
habit Of dragging the roads for pay
and was indignant that the commits
sioners had asked people to drag
them this spring free of charge. He
declared that he would not do any
work on the road at all until they got
the pay for 1t again. The friend ap-
preached him consolingly and said,
in kindly terms, "Well, now that's
all right, we will let you use the
roads just the same as if you helped
to drag them. When you go to town
you don't have to get out and travel
at the side Of the road or In the bor-
row pits, just get right up on the
grade and travel in the middle of the
road like other people, we will keep
the roads in condition for you until
