COUZENS IS MAN
OF STRAIGHT TALK
Friends Call Him Strong-Mind-
ed; Opponents Say He Is
Stubborn"
BY F. e. BOGART, Jr.,
Universal Service.

DETROIT, Mich, Nov. 29. -
James Couzens. mayor of Detroit,
who succeeds Senator Newberry, is
man of brusque personality.
His friends refer to him as strong.
minded. Opponents brand him stub.
born. He always has spoken his
mind plainly.
Though Mr.. Couzens' assertive.
ness has plunged him into frequent
spats with public leaders he has
clung to the doctrine Of tolerance
In all his contacts with others, in
public and private. Next to his
pride in this respect stands his
ebulliency of spirits. Even though
he was laid low by two serious
operations last spring. he remarked
on his fiftieth birthday In August
Henry Ford has said of Couzens:
Jim is the only man ever worked
with who has the courage In.
variably to say mo- when he means
no."
Couzens was the financial director
Of the Ford enterprises for fourteen
years. His associates called him
"the fellow with ice water in his
veins"
However. Couzens is not merely
an accumulator of fortunes. Much
has been said of his hospital plans
and other philanthropic deeds. But
there is still another side that re.
flutes the "ice water" description.
This is illustrated in his Oft repeated
assertion that the happiest period
Of his life was that just after his
marriage, when he earned $3.50 q
month, this sum just enabling him
to indulge in simple uxuries for the
pleasure of his wife.
Couzens loves the outdoors. Not
only does he like to keep himself
physically fit, but he gets a spir.
itua1 benefit. from the beautiful
country scenea such as those
around his property IN Bloomfield
Hills and his stock farm at Roch.

Republicans were paired for the
legislation with Republicans and
L. Democrats against 1t.
All doubt as to the result was
swept away when Republican
Leader MondeIl closed the debate
with a ringing appeal which
brought the friends of the legisla-
ton to their feet in a demonstra-
ton which for spontaneous enthu-
siam seldom has been equalled in
the House.
Before the final voting began
three hours were devoted to the
consideration Of amendments. The
Democrats kept up their avowed
efforts to so mutilate the legisla-
tion that its trainers would not be
able to recognize it. But its cham
pions stood up against the last-day
assaults with the same stubborn
resistance which previously had
saved the essential features from
damage.
