FORD WOULD END
 ALL S..'AGAIN
Auto Manufacturer Would Extend
 Operations 10 Entire World

Detreit, Jan la lBY Associated PFessl ,-HeRFy FaFd's industrial ek' pansien program is worldwide, moi national, in scope, and has been un' deriakeR with The underlying motive Of educating the people Of the world ta such q degree and Of making them so prosperous that wars will be end cd forever"
 This was disclosed today as the motive hack Of the Detroit manufle' turer's desire 10 extend his opera tions into every pafi or the world.
 Mir. Ford believes that "a busy, prosperous people do not stop work ta make war; they go 10 war only when il is necessary 10 protect their homes or their ideals when these are menaefd by some more idle nation"
 When the time comes that eNeFy- one, everywhere, has job, and last ing property has been created as Tee suit, the people ot ans nation will be too husy and too happy 10 even think about war" the manufacturer says, Therefore, it Is pointed ont by those in close touch with him, he Is con- Nineed that world industrial oNpan- sion, bringing with it prosperity for all peoples in an lands, automatically will make war impossible,
 Tho manufacturer IS known to be. lieye that the automobile is the agent that will usher in the millennium Of world peace.
 When the people Of any country get to understand automobiles and use them daily. they will know con siderably more about machinery" he declares. Then. in tho course Of a few years agricultural machinery will appear in that country. Hundreds Of bushels Of grain will be produced where only few were grown before. In many foreign countries the farm CTS know nothing of machinery. Probably they will not know it until they have learned to use automobiles.
 Machinery will help to make any country prosperous.
 There is another reason why world wide use of motor cars will help to end war. That is in the increase of travel on the part Of the persons of any country.
 Tn Mexico. villages fight one an- other. If we could give every man in those villages an automobile. let him travel from his own home town to the other towns. and permit him to find out that his neighbors, at heart. were his friends, rather than his enemies. Mexico would be paci- fled for all time.
 Russia could be saved by the ad- vent of the automobile. It would educate the peasants by instruction in machinery. Other machinery would be brought in to till the fertile acres if the peasants once were taught to use it. There would be no more hum ger anywhere in that country.
 The same is true, to a greater or less degree. of every country under the sum-"
 MT. Ford, according to those close to him, has come to look upon au- tomobiles, not merely as the products of his factories or the plants of other motor companies. but as means Of civilizing and pacifying every part of the world
