Ford Employees Must Keen Sober.

Inc oo,OO employees OF the FORD
Motor Company have been notified
that violation Of the prohibition law
by them will cost them positions with
the company.
This drastic action was taken after
it has come to the attention OF the Of
ficials Of the company that bootleg
gers were operating in Highland Park
and Springwells, where the Ford plants
are located. Numerous cases Of flag
rant violations OF the prohibition law
have been brought to the attention of
Mr.. Ford, and he determined that the
law is to be obeyed to the letter so
far as his own employees are concern
ed.
Liquor has been carried into the
Ford shops and in several instances
accidents have resulted on account Of
it. A workman died after drinking
connection purchased near the River
Rouge plant A driver of one of the
company's trucks caused a series OF
traffic accidents as result of driving
while intoxicated.
In discussing his order against
drinking, Mr. Ford said:
1.-THE 18th Amendment to the Consti-
tuition is a part of the fundamental law
Of this country. 1t was meant Il be
enforced. Politics has interfered in
the enforcement OF this law, but so
far as our organization is concern
ed, it is going to be enforced to the
letter.
shrinking by our employees must
stop. We are going to end it, Start
ing today (September llth) it will cost
a man his position without any excuse
or appeal being considered, to have
the odor Of beer, wine or liquor on his
breath or to have any of these ntoxi-
cants on his person or in his home
81 have always been opposed to all
forms Of intoxicants, beer, wine and
liquor. They never did anyone any
good and they have caused great suf-
fering and misery in the world So
far as our plants are concerned we are
going to stamp out this business. If
the government hasn't enough men to
do it, we have. This should be
warning to those making intoxicants
and selling them to our men. We will
not tolerate present conditions any
longer"
Mr.. Ford's position is consistent
with the attitude of the majority of
big employers of labor. An intoxi-
Gated employee in shop is menace
to his fellow workmen. II is the uni
versal, testimony of employers that &C
cidents have been greatly reduced
since the advent of prohibition. But
contraband liquor is just as capable |
of producing mischief as liquor sold
under license. Mr.. Ford is justified in
taking the above stated action.
The liquor interests argument that
employers line up against the liquor
traffic in a desire to exact more work |
from their employees is confession !
that man drunk or partly drunk
cannot render full value for wages
received. But prohibition has also
brought benefits alike to employers
and employees. This is seen in better |
living conditions for the working men
and increased savings accounts. Mr.. |
Ford's action is an emphatic indorse-
ment of the prohibition policy, and is
in accord with Prohibition Commission

TopAY's AID TO BEAUTY

Hair 10 by far the most conspic-
uous thing about US and is proba-
bly, the most easily damaged by
bad or careless treatment. If we
are very careful in hair washing,
we will have virtually no hair
troubles. An especially fine sham
poo for this weather, one that
brings out all the natural beauty
of the hair; that dissolves and en-
tirely removes all dandruff, excess
oil and dirt; can easily be used at
trifling expense by simply dissolv-
ing a teaspoonful of canthrox
(which you can get at any drug
gist's) in a cup Of hot water. This
makes a full cup Of shampoo
so II is easy to
apply 1t to all the hair instead Of
Just the top of the head. This
chemically dissolves all impurities
land creates a soothing, cooling
lather. Rinsing leaves the scalp
spotlessly clean, soft and plant,
while the hair takes on the glossy
richness of natural color. also a
fluffiness which makes II seem
much heavier than 1t IL. After
canthrox shampoo, arranging
the hair Is 4 pleasure.

 Failure of the white molders to re- port for work Tuesday was in no way a general strike. it being the inten- ton of the men to return to their places in the foundries Wednesday or Thursday.
 An open air mass meeting was held early Tuesday morning on Twelfth street. west, at which discussion of pans Tor rSinoval of the negro mold CTS was discussed by the holders, no definIee plans being developed at the mlss meeting.
 In the meantime negro holders. who were brought here last week by otficers of the Rudisill plant from Chattanooga were molding at the plant under guard of four white men, the same number of guards being on duty at the plant at night.
 Heading holders of the city Tues day stated that there had been no talk of violence toward the negroes or the owners of the plant, but their idleness during the day was solely for the purpose of discussing the sit- uation developed by the foundry own CTS who. are seeking to run their shop exclusively with negro labor.
 The situation developed by this ef- fort was the main subject of con versation on the streets during Tues day. the bulk of the iron holders of the city being congregated at differ- ent points of the city throughout the day.
