This was the answer Of Henry Ford.

the question, Would you accept the
domination for Pres1dent7''
The question was asked by Charles

No, the question"
You may quote me as saying" 4"
Ford went on, that I never ran for
anything yet--or from anything"
The interviewer explained he didn't

he writes. They simply don't hit

Would Abolish Poverty
Here are some of Ford's aspirations;
Il want to abolish poverty from
America. I want tQ make wagee
higher. 1 want to make a good home
possible for every child. No, 1t isn't
unselfish on my part. Low wages are
silly. You can't get rich by making
other people poor--they can't buy
our goods then, and there you are.
The only way to get rich is my max
ing people rich. Wealth wouldn't be
such curse IL everybody helped
carry it."
Ford spoke of things corning to
pass according to the big plan" and
said we are in the new era" now.

The newspaper atmosphere Of this

Newspaper editors OF even small towns

WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.-Surer-
power plants. situated in strategic In
dustrial centers, to supply great areas
instead of mere communities-woul
prevent a repetition OF the present fuel
famine conditions, according to DR..
George Otis Smith, director Of the
United States geological survey.
'SSper-power plants are demonstret-
tng their efficiency seven days a week
IN west coast States. and industries
there have experienced but little in
convenience. since the beginning Of the
anthracite and bituminous strikes"
Smith said in an interview with the
United News.
According to Smith, super-power
plants are great consumers Of coal,
but scientific economy governs their
operations. Hence no waste is charged
to overhead expenses
Coal Bought Cheaply
Long time contracts for coal, bought
at rock bottom prices and direct sid
ing connections with trunk line rail-
roads, from the mines to the super.
power plants. are prime factors in The
general efficiency and economic prin-
ciples Of scientific operation, accord
ing to Smith.
Tn the west coast States" said
Smith. ''the super proposition is very
popular. Power. light and heat are
supplied to q number Of cities linked
up with the super-pewer circuits, and
II is conceded By authorities in indus
trial and economic affairs that this
service is more economical than the
individual system in vogue generally
throughout the nation
The New England States realize
that actual near-famlne conditions ex
ist relative to the coal situation. and
IN Maine ths situation is serious
Region Is Crowded
For this reason. Smith believes that
plans long discussed for establish
unent of the super-poweT project on
the east coast will gain impetus.
This region. the most crowded
workshop Of the country. includes
only 2 per cent Of the area Of the
United States. but contains p per

Cowpeas Supply Big
Needs of Poor Soils

The cowpea is one Of the bes,
crops that can be grown TO supply
nitrogen and organic matter, the two
things needed most By poor soils Of
Kentucky. soils and crops specialists
Of the College of Agriculture say.
Unlike other legumes. such as alfalfa
and clover, the peas make a fair
growth on poor, sour soils without
either limestone or other fertilizers
although a light application of lime
stone and some phosphate fertilizer
helps them make a better growth.
The peas are especially valuable as
n soil Improvement crop because they
may be seeded by being broadcasted
and therefore need no cultivation.
In using the peas for soil improve
ment, many farmers seed them as a
catch crop after wheat, oats or rye.
Seeded at this late date. the crop
makes considerable vine growth
which il valuable for forage and fer
tility but which would hardly be suf-
