DETROIT, Oct. 22.-Henry Ford, an
astonishing number Of people up here
believe, will be the Democratic nomi-
nee for President in 1924. It is i,npos-
sible in any discussion Of Michigan
politics in either party to avoid this
Ford Presidential candidacy. 1t seeps

times of the most surprising character
No word has come from Fofd, ,sithz
directly Of Indirectly, so far as ths
writer could learn, which encouraged
any Of his retainers--a those who
would like to be retainers with good
places on the pay roll--to go forward
with this plan for making him Presi-
dent. His, favorite expression when
asked about 1t by his close friends is
to says
"That is on the lap Of the gods"
That is as near to commitment as
he has ever gone.
At the Democratic State Convention
some weeks ago William A. Comstock,
chairman Of the Democratic State Com
mittee, offered resolution indorsing
Ford for President. There was an up
roar. and some plain talking took place
behind closed doors.
Ex-Governor w. N. Ferris, perhaps
the most popular Democrat in the
state. and the candidate of his party
for United States Senator this year
against Senator Townsend, was dis
mayed.
Ferris Opposes Endorsement
He did some earnest talking with the
Democratic leaders, saying that much
as he admired Ford in many respects
1t would embarrass him to an extraor.
dinary degree to have the Ford issue
injected openly in the campaign By
having the Democratic party Of the
state pledged to Ford for President
He pointed out that this would have
the effect Of driving many Independent,
voters who do like Ferris, as they have
often shown, but who disagree with
many of Ford's policies, to vote the
straight Republican ticket.
1t was. such an obvious case Of TAX
ing aboard a needless burden that the
other Democrats saw it as Ferris did
and the issue was withdrawn without q
fight. So far there is no Indication
that the move has hurt Ferris with the
Ford supporters. Henry himself has
made no statement as to Ferris's can
didacy, which lis the most important in
the state in that Ferris Is conceded,

state ticket who has a chance of be.

Upstate Slurnf,
lrn Registration
Blow TO Smith
Tammany Fears Loss of
Cities Carried in 1921 by
Democrats for Firs t
Time in Many Years
Also Anxious About City
Rolls i'm AIS Home Dis
trict Declared Padded
With 8, 500 Illegal Names

Figures from upstate cities, showing
a decline in registration this year over
last, especially in cities carried by the
Democrats in 1921 for the first time in
many years, are regarded by Republi-
cans as indicative Of slump in the
Smith upstate vote, while the cam
paign managers Of Alfred E. Smith
sought yesterday to find consolation in
the returns by observing that normally
these communities were Republican and
that the loss in registration would cut
both ways.
The fact remains, however, that Tam
many has been fearful all along Of
a light upstate registration, or, in
fact, of anything short Of an unprece-
dented heavy registration, at least in
the cities which went Democratic last
year.
Tan1many's reasoning was that the
upstate registration would have to be
heavy to indicate tremendous interest
in the campaign; otherwise, the Tam
many wiseacres argued, it would mean
that the cld-time Republican strength
would be revealed in the vote north of
the Bronx, overcoming the Tammany
vote in tho city.
Padding Is Charged
From sources that have hitherto
proved reliable on the ways of Tam
! many, The Tribune learned yesterday
that Tammany anticipated a light reg
istration and had prepared for it. One
of The Tribune's informants said that
many names had been illegally regis
tered in the 1st Assembly District
AL Smiths home district. This poll
tician said that he had information
that close to $500 names had been so
registered in this one district by Tam
many Hall.
This is one of the two Assembly dis
tricts in Manhattan which did not
show falling off in the registration
ending week ago Saturday, ThAre
the registration in 1921 was 1885.
This year it was 1913. Elsewhere in
Manhattan, with the exception of the
4th, another Tammany stronghold, the
slump in the vote averaged nearly 1000
to an election district. This means
tremendous slump in the Smith vote
in the city. 1t is frankly admitted by
Smiths friends that it will mean a
loss in the Smith vote which they are
fearful up state will overcome.
Await Full Figures
1t will not be possible for couple

parties, to forecast accurately the eff

state, as until the reports come in from

The total registration in this city

Following are reports on registration
in upstate towns and cities:
ALBANY, Oct. 22.--Albany, of sur
rounding cities, alone showed an in

to-day in reports which still were in

Ifs Storm on Baltic

RIGA, Oct. g (By The Asso-
ciated Press).--The Russian mr.
mored cruisers Rossiya and
Grombei and several other vessels
have been lost in a storm IN the
Baltic Sea.
The Rossiya was a 12,195-ton
vessel and the Grombei a ship of
13,430 tons. The former had a
length of 4S0 feet and the latter
Of 472 feet. The Rossiya was
laid down at the Baltic Works in
1893 and completed in 1893 and
the Grombei was started in 1898
and completed in 1901.
The Grombei was scuttled by a
mutinous crew at Cronstadt in
November, 1920. 1t is probable
that she was later raised and re-
paired. The Rossiya (also known
as the Rossia) was said to have
participated in the Cronstadt
mutiny in the wintar Of 1921.

PoWer Cannot b Delegated

NENATOR OWEN, Democrat of Oklahoma, who
~ has been permitting his mentality to lie fallow
for a considerable spell, has at length broken into
print again, this time with a proposal which casts
some doubt on his sanity as a legislator. 1t is a
proposed amendment to the tariff bill, as follows:
The United States tariff commission is hereby
authorized and directed to ascertain the difference
in the cost of production at home and abroad of
every article imported from any foreign country
into the United States or into any of its possessions
where duty is imposed on such article. The said
commission is directed to calculate the specific
duty equal TO the difference in the cost of produc-
ton at homo and abroad of such article which with
10 per cent added thereto shall be published by SAID
commission as the duty fixed upon, such article by
the congress of the United States"
This is a proposal pure and simple for delegated
legislation, something congress is inhibited from
doing. The proposal carried its own denial, for
it would not be the duty fixed upon such articles
by congress, but by the commission itself. All bills
for raising revenue must originate in the house of
representatives and while Senator Owen niay argue
that his amendment does not run counter 10 that
constitutional provision, it is doubtful if the house
itself would ever countenance the amendment or
that the supreme court would approve it even il
the house should do so. Senator Owen reasons that
it would take the tariff out of politics. But that
will never be done SO long as there are two schools
of thought to make it an issue. When the Southern
Tariff association and a few other such organiza-
lions have succeeded in converting the entire coun-
try to the protective tariff idea, it will disappear
from politics, and not until thep.

The Men Want No Strike

THERE Is every reason to doubt that the men
l. themselves, that is the railroad employees, really
are in sympathy with resistance to the decisions OF
the United States Railway Labor board.
The truth is that the men have been expecting
a reduction in their wages and, as would be the case
among any other intelligent set of men, they have or
are making preparations - meet the new scale. The
strike statements arr made by leaders of the unions
whose viewpoint has been distorted by months of
effort before the board % resist the inevitable
downward trend of wages.
The employees, on the other hand, are in the main
sincerely interested in taking care of their jobs and
their homes, and few employees in any industry have
more good reasons for doing so. .
1t should noe be forgotten that the men in rail
road service work under much more favorable con-
ditions than in outside shops and industries.
The existence, and the policy of the labor board
have benefited the railroad employees because the
board has prevented these reductions in wages until
long after the wages of men doing similar work III
other industries had been cut
To leave railway wages on their present high
basis would be to make railway employees a favored
class at the expense of shippers and other classes
of people, including other working men.

Education a la Cafeteria

ABOUT fifty per cent of the tax money collected
u is used for purposes of our schools and public
education. Our school system is receiving the
Thoughtful attention of business men to a greater
extent than even before.
All are in favor of the best possible free school
system. The day has arrived, however, when there
is a division of opinion as to how far our public
universities should go in e%nlarging the variety of
subjects which may be added to their courses.
Further there is a growing sentiment against the
practice of adding innumerable free courses in
state universities covering everything from bare
legged dancing to vaudeville.
The cost to the taxpayers is running into the mil
lions and the question, is becoming more persistent,
"are the legitimate functions of state institutions
being exceeded Should the state teach free of
charge all the various courses of the arts and the
