MICHIGAMME. Mich, Aug 2
-(By The Associated Press)----
Marking what is believed here to
be the start of a great develop
sment program by Henry Ford, the
first shipment Of iron ore from
Mr.. Ford's mine here has been
sent to River Rouge. near Detroit,
for conversion into iron and steel
that next will be seen in sutomo-
biles and tractors.
About sec cons of ore is being
sent daily to Escanaba by rail and
there dumped on anSore boat for
the Detroit district. at River
Rouge the ore Will be put through
the Ford blast furnaces. The only
break in the procession from the
Ford owned mine to the Ford pro-
duced Automobiles, is in the rail-
road and boat lines necessary to
carry the ore Mr.. Ford has not
yet attained control of these
transportation facilities.
The mine, known as the 1mper-
ial, will supply but small per-.

Ford industries but it is believed

owning 100000 acres of land in
the upper Michigan peninsula and
rich deposits of ore are believed
by experts to underlie at least a
part OF this vast tract.
Operation of the Ford mine
here is as as similar to the other
industries carried or by the manu-
facturer as is permissible Work
ing conditions for the men are
Revolutionary, mining men say.
When the workers come out of the
mine they remove. their working
clothes, stand under warm shower
baths, don street cloth and
then goto their homes. The wage
is Sc day for older employees and

Smell of the sea-there's sharp.
salty chill to it,
Setting your no-trils a-quiver
with zest;
Once you have known it, forever
you'll thrill of it.
Stirred by tingle Of joyous
All the seas 5glamorous spells that
enamor us,
All the seas power. tremendous
and free,
Make the blood surge in us, wake
an old urge in us,
Brought by the far-carried
smell Of, the sea!
Over the beaches and. marshes it
blows to us; NJ
Smell OF the sea-and we sniff
it and sigh;
Suddenly life on tie land seems
but prose to US
Oh, for a ship with the waves
shouting by.
oh, for the glorious battles with
Boreas
When we faced tempests with
truculent g1ee;
How all that wonderful, stormy
and thunderfuI
Memory comes 18th the smell
of the sea!
Smell of the sea-therc are odors
more savory,
Perfume. of gardens or hayfelds
in June;
But there is none that can hold
you in slavery
Like the scent blown over head
land and dune;
Salt is the sting of it; ali, as sing
of it
There's an enchantmer. I never
flee,
Down far and deep in me olden
dreams leap in me-
I'm in the spell of the smell OF
the sea!
