Detroit, July 2s-Henry Ford has launched upon a new enterprise, that of glass making.
 The manufacturer has established here and begun to operate a plant that will produce glass for automo- bile windshields. It is said to be the first plant in the country designed specially for making of windshields.
 Keeping Things Moving.
 The Ford Production slogan Keep things moving" Is playing large part in the new methods introduced by the manufacturer in his latest field of endeavor. A continuous conveyor system makes 1t possible for the glass to be kept continually nov ing from the time it leaves the fur mace in liquid form until it becomes polished windshield.
 The molten glass is drawn from the furnace and passes under roller that gives it width and thickness, and then upon a moving conveyor that carries 1t ASA feet through gradu- ally cooling furnace. At the end it is cut and placed on another con- veyor that carries it through the stages of grinding and polishing, after which it is ready for use.

New York, July 2s.-The fiery cross burns not but the train of develop ments which followed the initiation ceremony held last Saturday night in Westfeld by the Ku Klux Klan con- tinues to be an absorbing topic of interest and discussion in this part of the state.

 Nott Rented Lot.
 When interviewed last night at his home, Mott admitted that he had arranged for the renting of the lot in Westfeld from Clifford Plum and that the lot had been leased with the understanding that 1t was to be used for an outing of Meriden busi- ness men He reiterated the state ment of King Kleagle Sanders that no army uniforms were worn by the guards at the Plumb place.

 ''Thee accusation that the Klan is un- n-American and unpatriotic is utter ly false. The Klan oath embodies sworn allegiance to the Constitution of the United States. The Klan rec ognizes the Constitution as putting into actual practice the ideals and precepts of the Declaration of 1nde- pendence and believes in the ideals and beliefs of great Americans such as George Washington and Thomas lief ferson and their compatriots. Klans men are sworn to serve in the interest of law and order and to hold them selves ready whenever the vested au- thorities of law and order enlist their service.
