Forel's Home Town Starts
80 Henry for President" Club

DEARBORN. Mich. May %. In this,
the home town Of Henry Ford, a group
Of enthusiasts to night started what
they hope will be an epoch in American
history. They formed an organization
TO beat the two leading political par
ties of the country and make Henry
Ford the next President of the United
States.
In several respects the meeting ap-
reared a throwback to the political
days Of half century or more ago.
Each OF the l37 persons present wore
large red cardboard band around his
hat on which was emblazoned in large
black letters, we want Henry The
effect was that Of the "stovepipe" hat
parades Of Harrison's S day.
After outbursts of oratory in which
the automobile manufacturer was
iauded without stint. a n arborn

organized. This. according to plans.

to be organized throughout the coun

We have been electing a bunch TO
represent us in Washington and they
are running the government as for

laration.
"W hat is needed is change. and
Henry Fcrd is the man TO make it
with he declared Further. he as
serted Mr.. Ford was the only big manu-
facturer that had turned his entire re-
sources over to the government for war
purposes. What Mr. Pointer said about
the other manufacturers required both
censorship and deletlon.
W lillian I. Kronberg, editor OF The
Dearborn Press said: MIR. Ford has
made no formal announcement Of his
attitude on the question Of being a
candidate for President Of the United
States. but | cam state positively he
Is in receptive frame of mind. Al
though he is really Republican, that
party would now refuse to accept him
because Of his democratic senatorial
campaign.
"Therefore, if the Henry Ford for
President Club can induce him to do
so. he VIII become a candidate on a
platform Of honest currency among
other things"

Aim to Raise Standards of

About forty members of the Actors
Equity Association met yesterday at the
Hotel Ambassador and made arrange
ments for the opening Of the Forty
eighth Street Theater by the Eauity
Players. Inc, next October A years
lease or the .heater was obtained and
S93,300 was pledged to set co-opera-
tive theatrical enterprise on its feet.
The season will open October Is and
at least five productions viii be pre-
sented, ending with Equity festival
week when a different bill! will be pre-
sented at every performance.
Shakcspearian plays and plays by an
cient and modern writer's will be pro-
duced. Although many seuts are to be
sold by subscription for the season
thre is no idea Of confning the pro-
ductions of the Equity Players to any
particular type nor Of catering 10 anv
particular group.
Not Fighting Managers
The intention Of the founders is ia
produce plays of the widest possible
appeal, run each for about two months
and then turn it over to one of the
regular producers, if it is desired.
Frank Gilmore. executive secretary Of
the Actors Equity Association, who
announced the plans. said that this
time the men and women backing the
Equity Players had no intention Of
fighting the managers.
1t is not an Actors Equity Associa-
ton enterprise, although those associ-
ated with il are members of the asso-
ciatlon. 1t is an attempt to produce
artistic plays on 4 cooperative basis
in way which. it is thought. will
prove beneficial to actors. managers
and the public. New plays and new
methods which 4 manager conducting
MS house solely on business principles
might hesitate to accept viii have
their chance with the Equity Players.
IT is not movement in opposition
TO the managers said Mr. Gilmore,
put rather is intended to be of as
sistancc to them by increasing the
output Of plays and the movement of
:heatcrgoers.
Will Pass on Processes
FIRST. managers may secure pays of
proved success without assuming the
dead llft Of initial production. as the
Equity Players. Inc. will only maintain
then, if the play succeeds, pass il on
to a regular manager
"Sccondly. new ideas aud methods
Will be tried out. thc results of which
managers may use in producing their
own plays.
Thirdly and most important. the
project is intended to stimulate theatcr-
gong and to increase the number Of
those interested in the stage
