"ND PLATFORM

We have it on good authority now that Henry Ford will run for the presidency if he is nominated on an independent ticket without plat form. This reassuring statement is dcduced from the remarks Of one of Henry's lifelong friends who goes aheas with his plans to make Henry president. after long conference with the little automobile manufac- turer of the plcasautFblue eyes and near white head Of hair
 Someone has wisely said that po- Hticsl leaders are to be found in the rear Of the procession Of the people, not at its head. In other words the successful leader finds out what the people arc determined upon, as he marches in the wake Of Inc throng, and then, having heard the gossip floating back to him from those who are marching ahead. he seizes upon the loudest whisper Of all of them. and makes those demands his own. So he is in a position to go ahead and use that general demand as slogan for a successful campaign.
 Now were Henry 10 have no plat form. he would be in an ideal position to seize upon the varying demands Of the people and make them his own were Henry that sort Of man. II is easy to think Of many politicians who would do this. lt is easy 10 think of many who have thought they heard the ioudest cry oF thr people but whose hearing has been shown to be defective J.

SALESMAN HELD IN
 DEATH OF TWO MEN
Arrest Diamond in Cleveland for Shooting Bank EnplOyS

New York, Nov, 26.-Barlow Morris Diamond. a Brooklyn salesman who l was arrested last night in the hotel Statler at Cleveland as one of three hold-up men who shot to death two employes of the West End bank on November l4 and escaped with $4S,- 900 in cash, arrives today under heavy guard to face witnesses who police say have identified his picture as that of one of the hold-up men.
 In the murder and robbery William s. Barlow, a retired police sergeant. and William H. Mclaughlin, a war veteran employed by the bank, were shot down in cold blood without the slightest warning. Their two assail- ants escaped in an automobile driven by confederate. It was through this car that Diamonds arrest was brought about, after detectives had trailed him through Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, Toledo and Cleveland.
 In the prisoners pockets at the time of his arrest were found a loaded revolver and s2,200, mostly in s20 bills, the denomination Of a large part Of the money stolen. He had great deal more than this when he left New York, the detectives said, but spent layishly on his tour. In Philadelphia, they said, he stopped at the Hotel Lorraine under the name of schwartz" giving lavish entertain mont to chorus girl and boasting
 
 The police first connected him with the case through the license plates on the automobile in which the hold-up men escaped from the scene of the murder. The plates were issued in fictitious name, but the application gave the address of a building owned by Diamonds mother. The prisoner once served term of six months in Connecticut for grand larceny, police said. His fingcrprints, they added corresponded with marks left in blood on the door handles Of the car. Five witnesses to the crime identified his rogues' gallery picture at police headquarters as that of one of the hold-up men.
 Diamonds mother, who collapsed when told of his arrest, had an ac- count in the West End bank, police said. and her son frequently went to the institution on business for her. The bank is within a stones throw of the Diamond home.
 on information supplied over long distance telephone last night by the detectives who made the arrest poe lice said they expected within a short time to locate two men believed to { have been the other members Of the gang.
 Diamond, who is 2s. widower and | the father of a five year old boy was | at one time one of the best known | athletes in Brooklyn high schools.
 The wide area covered by New ! York police in the search for thn | prisoner became known last night | when officials said they had recalled | detectives for 20 cities. They are | positive. they said. that the other two men they seek are at hotels here.

might possibly step in if the people wanted a man at a time when the constitutiOnality of procedure or such silly rcd tape would not come into question. now strengthens his position of desiring to be free from any pre- Niously laid out course. He would be president only if he could do as he saw fit, having made no plans public, being free from the embarrassing ne- cess:ty of considering the law or other handicaps to free action, and if he could be to the country what he has Leen to the people who work for him The trouble is. however. that we, all of us would like to have just a little hand in things, and we would like to feel suPe that the President of the United States, whoever he is, will abide by the fundamental rules that have kept this country strong and powerful through many distressing periods.

FIGURING AHEAD

Some time ago the Herald called attention to the fact that in asking to he allowed to do a certain piece of work which would cost cetrain sum of money no board should say that this work should require the board to exceed it's appropriation, unless eN- penses had been figured ahead and were found to be such that the board would not exceed its appropriation even if such certain expenses together with the amount of the contract sought were included.
 Where the amount left in the treasury of a board will no more than met the fixed salary list plus the cost of work that surely must be done. then any extra expense will, in fact if not in theory. exceed the boards appropriation.
 Today 1t is found that the hoard Of public works will have to have an ap- propriation for cleaning the streets Of snow this winter. Quite possibly the board has known for some time such added appropriation would De needed, Mayor Paonessa has been confident Of it. The only excuse for emphasizing the matter again is that it should be understood a board may seek an ap- propriation for work-work badly needed--and may say the cost of such work will not technically exceed it's appropriation as there is money in the treasury to meet that expense and yet, by using this money at that time. it will be inevitable that its general appropriation will have to be ex- cecded in order to take care of salar- icy and work that simply has to be done.

CHICAGO STUDENT IS
 FOUND MURDER VICTIM
Body of s. F. l.. Tracey. With a Bullet in the Temple, is Dis
 covered Lying in Street

Chicago, Nov. 26. - The second crime of violence within a week hav- ing as a victim a University of Chi cago student, came to light yesterday with the finding, of the body of S. Freeman Louis Tracey of 1217 East Fifty-third street, lying in East Fifty eighth street near Woodlawn avenue. The youth, who was 23 years old. and until recently a political economy stu dent at the university, had been shot through the left temple with a 32 calibre bullet. Powder burns and a number of scratches upon the face indicated Tracey had engaged his slayer in desperate hand-to- hand battle.
 The body lay in tumbled heap near the curbing and crimson trail led a block east over Fifty-eighth street and north to a point over E. 63s Kenwood avenue. It is here the shot was fired. it is believed.
 Detectives have failed to discover clue to the identity of the slayers, or any reason for the staying.
 The victims clothing was undis- turbed. his coat, vest and overcoat were buttoned and s41 in cash and his watch were found in his pockets.

Washington, Nov. 26-Considera- tions of mere temporary partisan advantage" will not tempt the Demo- cratic members of congres to play cheap or mean politics at the ex- pense of the people as did the Re publicans during 1919 and 1920" Representative Garrett of Tennessee declares in a statement urging absti- hence from partisanship in dealing with the problem of taxation.

His statement. issued after a conference with Representative Cor dell Hull of Tennessee, chairman of the Democratic national committee, emphasizes with reference to Secre- tary Melons proposals for tax reduc- tions that everybody. everywhere" favors reducing the normal taxes.

SOMETHING WORTH WHILE

There is an amusing side to the Herman situation at last-at least it will not cease to bring q smile of half relief, half contcmpt-unless the German people themselves refuse ab-
 solutcly to work to bring the good out Of the situation that may now come.
 Berlin changing chancellors, is still
 apparently firm in the statement that
 Germany can not pay any more repar-
 ations. But the people in Germany who have the money to pay the
 reparations are arranging with France to do that very thing-pay repara-
 tions. The picture presented is that of Berlin closing its eyes and protest ing that Germany can not pay, while
 right under Berlin's eyes the Rhine and Ruhr industrial interests are sign ing a contract with France to pay at oncs 279,000,OO0 francs, to pay IS per cent of the output of the mines to the allies and another tax of 10 per cent a ton on all the rest of the coal they sell. The joke of it is that Ser lin knows this is going on and could see it if she would stop making her gestures and would open her eyes she has been peeking through the lids, saving Ter face and allowing the men who should promise to pay, and who can pay, to satisfy France and at the same time sticking to her position that Germany can not pay.
 Well, Germany could not pay until these very men who have profited by the fall of the mark and the political troubles, were forced to attend to the payment themselves. Now, if the workers, the practical diggers of coal in Germany. will dig-as the interests will insist they do--there would seem to be no reason why those separations will not be paid. If, however, the working people listen to the insstenee of Berlin that Germany can not pay, and if those workers refuse to obey orders of the men for whom they are working because they will know their work will pay separations, then pay ments are as far off as ever. So, it is mp to the German people themselves, the encouraging feature being that men who were clever enough to bring profit for themselves out Of Germany's distrcss--namely the wealthy Ger mans--will probably be clever enough to make the workers work, the mine produce, and start payment of repara- tions for their own sakes at least.
 Meanwhile the allies are united on one point, the one insisted upon by the council Of ambassadors. Germany must put no obstacle in the way or allied investigation and constant su- peryision in the matter Of keeping Germanys armed force within the limits prescribed by the Treaty of Versailles

Britain to Protest if
 English Boat Is Seized
By The Assoclated Press.

By The Associated Press.
 London, Nov. 26.--If the schooner Tomako, seized by the American au- thorities off the New Jersey coast. is proved to be a British ship with her papers in order, the British govern ment will probably lodge formal protest to Washington against her seizure outside the three mile limit. it was said here today. The British protest, if made, would be in order to keep the record clear on the three mile issue, pending final agreement on the rum-running treaty permitting seizures outside that limit for this es- pecial offense.
