FORD WOULD REDUCE
STREET RAIL WAY FARE
Declares Business Would be Trebled
if Detroit Cut Fare in
Half at Once.

(By Associated Press Leased Wire,l
Detroit, Mich.-Further expansion Of
the municipal street railway system
should be the policy Of Senator Desig-
nate Couzens' successor as mayor of
Detroit, in. the opinion of Henry Ford.
One of the first things the new mayor
should do, Mr.. Ford declared, in dis
cussing the appointment of Mr. Couz-
ems as United States senator, is to cut
fares in half. This, the motor manu-
facturer declared, would treble the
street railways business.
Pledging aid to the municipality
owned traction system, Mr.. Ford said
a large amount Of additional power
was being installed in the River Rouge
plant of his company which he would
gladly furnish the city at modern
figure. "Our workmen" he said,
furnish a very considerable part of
the street railways business. When
they are not using our power in the
hops they might az we'll be using it on
the street cars going to and from
work, and with power at the lowest
possible cost they should ride at the
lowest possible fare"

of Irish Free State If He
Accepts Honor. -


London - The appointment of Tim
othy Healy as the first governor gen

garded as a certainty. 1t is under
stood that the post was offered to him
some time ago and that it's final al
lotment to the veteran champion of
Irish autonomy, depended only upon
his acceptance.
That acceptance, according to sew
eral of the best informed correspond
ents in Dublin has now been given and
the consensus of opinion today was
that the announcement shat the king
has been pleased to appoint" will i'm
mediately follow the declaration of His
Majesty's assent to the Irish bill, which
will pass it's third and final reading
in the House of Lords tonight.

the last time as the provisional parlia-
ment of Ireland 1t assemblies tomor-
row as one of the three states of the

tinued energy Of the provisional gov
eminent to forestall any last minute
attempts to prevent the final establish
ment of the Free State administra-
