HENRY FORD To
HURT COOLIDGE
SO Says William Jennings
Bryan Regarding Ford's En-
dorSement of President

MIAMI, Fla, Dec. 22.-William
Jennings Bryan, candidate for dele
gate to the national Democratic con-
vention from this state, issued a
statement today in regard to Henry
Ford's endorsement of President
Coolidge in which he states that the
reaction will hurt Coolidge instead of
helping him.
The statement adds;
Mr.. Ford has been talked of as
the candidate of the masses, his sup
port coming from both Democrats
and Republicans, who interpreted
his candidacy as a protest against
the reactionary policies of most of
the Republican leaders and some of
the Democratic leaders. Mr.. Ford
as the millionaire champion of the
poor people of the country, would
make an inspiring spectacle, but Mr..
Ford loses his prominence when he
joins with the rest of big business
men in support of reactionary can
)didate.
"He will not carry with him any
of the plutocrats, because they are
already supporting Mr.. Coolidge; the
Presidents opposition to the excess
profits tax made sure of their sup
port; but Mr.. Ford's desertion of the
masses will create an irritation that
will become more pronounced as the
campaign approaches. The men who
| have difficulty in keeping their
household expenditures within their
incomes the men, who as a rule,
buy Ford cars-will resent the aban-
donment of their cause by one of the
richest men in the country, whom
they egarded-mistaken it now
seems-as their friend.
His use of the word safe in de-
scribing President Coolidge will
suggest a companion word sane,
which usually accompanies the word
safe when used to describe public
men and political policies. These,
who talk of safe and sane can
didate, reflect upon the intelligence
as well as upon the good purposes
| of the masses. President Coolidge
! will find Mr.. Ford the most expen-
sive booster who has yet climbed
! into the band wagon. His action
emphasizes the deepening division
between those with big incomes and
/ those with small incomes.'
