FORD NEVER SAW BOOK.
Did Not Authorize Statement He had
Returned SIS. 900. 900 War Profits.

4 special dispatch from Washington
to the Detroit Journal says:
Henry Ford has never seen the book
entitled. The Truth About Henry Ford,
nor did he authorize its publication, con-
sequently he feels no responsibility for
its circulation or statements it may
contain
This is the Detroit automobile man
ufacturer' answer to a letter which
Secretary of the Treasury Andrew w.
Mellon wrote him several weeks ago in
curing about a statement in the book
to the effect that Mr.. Ford had returned
war profits amounting to S29,O00,OOO to
the government of the United States.
'sWhen the book. which was written
BY Sarah Il. Bushnell, first appeared il
caused considerable comment in Wash
ington. for it contained the direct state
ment that Mr. Ford had refunded all
his war profits to the government. 1t
was said that this refund amounted to
Sz9O00D00.
The treasury department promptly
announced that there was no record of
any such payment and naturally there
was considerable interest in the matter.
Mrs Bushnell stated in the preface
Of the book that she wished to acknowl-
edge gratitude to Mrs. Henry Ford, from
whom she had received most, of her
data ''She personally helped me to
secure accurate and authentic 1nforma-
ton the preface sets forth.
S.Mr. Ford was in Florida when Secre-
tary Mellon s letter reached Detroit and
it was not until day or so ago that the
Detroit manufacturer s reply was re-
ceived.
In his letter to Mellon, Ford makes
no claim that the refund was made as
alleged in the book. He simply declares
that he did not authorize the statement
about his refund of war profit, conse-
ouertly that he feels no responsibility
for it.
con January IA. 1919, before sen
ate committee which was investigating
war contracts, Alfred I4ucking, Mr..
| Ford : attorney. stated that Mr.. Ford
would refuse personally to accept cent
! of rrrGt from his various war con,
tracts.'' asina

FARM DROVE FORD
TO MAKING AUTOS
Hard Hand Labor Started His Mind To-
ward Labor Saving Ma
chiDerV

NEW YORK, April 29.-Life on a
farm drove Henry Ford into making
automobiles.
Mr. Ford says so himself in an arti-
Gle which he calls My Life and Work
written by himself in AIcClure's Mag
azine for May, with the collaboration of
Samuel Crowther, author and editor.
And Mr. Ford still feels the same way
about farming. Not that he has any
thing against farmers. he points out
but there is too much hard hand labor
en- farms Because he was born on a
farm and knew without question just
what farming means, Mr.. Ford invented
an automobile with which he hoped
first. to tighten the farmers task and
second, to aid people with a lot of
money in their search for enjoyment and
business relief.
That, in a nutshell, is what Mr.
Ford's article gives as the reason for
the Ford car. incidentally it is the
reason for his interest in farm tractors
and for lot of other things which have
happened in Detroit recently.
OF course, says Mr.. Ford. the horse
less carriage was common idea. He
had it. as did several other inventors
But Mr.. Ford figured that steam was
the best means for moving his car, and
he set about making a machine to OPP
crate by steam. He built one, and it
ran. But it had defects, lots of them
He very carefully points out most of
them. When he found he couldn't work
out his difficulties to his satisfaction, he
turned to gasoline-and so was born the
Ford.
1t was in 1890 that / began work on
a double cylinder engine" he writes.
because it was quite impractical to
consider the single cylinder for trans
portation."
shortly after that the farm was left
behind definitely and completely, when
Mr. Ford went to Detroit as an engi-
neer and mechanic for the Detroit Flee
tric Co, at exactly so a month. The
lob wasn't much in itself but its great
beauty lay in that it kept him out in
his workshop for he had spare time and
he employed it.
Two years later Detroit got a thrill.
Chug-chugging down its main streets
came the gas buggy. In the seat was

PRINCE OF WALES
NOT MEN4CED
But There Was Much Disturbance
When He Arrived in
Madras.

London, Jan. Dispatches to to-
days newspapers from India agree
that the prince of Wales was in nc
wise menaced personally at the time
of the disturbance in connection with
his arrival at Madras.
Doubt is even expressed that he saw
anything OF the disturbance, although
the trouble occurred in the triplicane
quarter. adjoining the government
house, to which the prince rode along
a three mile route, watched by crowds
described as friendly, and even enthu-
siastic. 1t was after the princes arriv-
al at the government house that what
seems to have been the worst part of
the outbreak happened. A mob from
the triplicane, which is mainly the Mo-
hammedan quarter, rushed the statue
of Lord Ripon, former viceroy, and
an ornamental pagoda decorated with
British flags, portraits Of the prince
and palms.
All the decorations were seized, scat
tered and trampled in the dirt. The
greatest disorder prevailed.
Infantry. with machine gun, was
rushed to the sc.Ee. No firing was re-
ported, although the soldiers were pelt-
ed with stones.
