HENRY FORD on INSTALLMENT
BUYING THE M0RTGAGING
OF THE FUTURE
ARIZONA Republican,

One who has mortgaged his fu-
ture up to the hilt, offering no
other security than himself, is a
cipher in society, according to
Henry Ford. A man may mortgage
his home or any property, real or
portable, and yet be figure to be
reckond with. But the man who
has mortgaged himself is a slaye
to his creditors and of no conse-
quence to anybody save them and
himself. Or, as Mr.. Ford puts it.,
he is out of the market, of no in
terest to producers.
Mr.. Ford was talking about in
stallment buying, which, having
assumed such gigantic proportions
in recent years, has come in for
wide and conflicting discussion.
There is a general agreement that
within reasonable limits INSTALL
ment buying is beneficial to pro-
ducers and consumers. To the
former it opens wider and liyelier
market, and it enables the buyer
and his family to enjoy the neces-
stiles and even some of tn luxur-
les Of which they would otherwise
be deprived.
But if instal1ment buying is thus
to be mutually beneficial, therpuf-
chases must not absorb the full
earning power Of the buyer, where
as unless the buyer keeps a tight
rein on himself he is apt to let it
go even beyond that, and then lie
is ,hopelessly mortgaged to the IL
ture.e His situation is different
from that of the man who puts u
mortgage upon his farm or upon a
bouse, or herd of cattle or a crop.
That. mortgage may enable him to
get money for an Investment which
may result i'll the Improvement of
his property and the increase Of
his wealth. The Investment made
by the installment buyer is dit
ferent. 1t is in a form Of property
from which he can hope for no re-

WHAT'S 1T ALL ABOUT?
(Arizona Daily Starr

(Arizona Daily Starr
The landing of United States ma
rines and sailors in Nicaragua con-
tinues a mystery. They have
landed, for official reports given
out at the navy department say so,
but why? Is there some situation
so menacing that it is not safe to
trust the people with the secret, or
is it because the state department
does not know itself?
The United States, under the
Monroe Doctrine, has contracted
with the rest of the world to police
the two Americas, and it has an un-
questioned right at times to step in
when the nationals of other coun-
tries are concerned. But from
what little the American people
have been able to CLEAN of the
present situation, there is no for
eign qustion. A revolutionary
party is close to becoming a de
facto government and for some rea-
son the United States does not
want it to. Whether this has any
connection with the Nicaraguan
claim that Mexico is taking part in
the revolt is a mystery along with
the other things yet to be ex-
planned.
1t looks, in the absence of other
information as if the United States
had acted too hastily in recogniz-
ing the Diaz regime and now is
trying to justify it's policy. At any
rate, it would be a happy thought
on the part Of the state department
if it would tell the country what
it's all about.

MATCHING FEDERAL AID IN
NORTH ARIZONA ROAD PRO-
JECTS is BEING URGED
(Holbroek Tribune)

The matching of 100000 that has
been deposited by the United
States government for the rebuild
ing of the road from McNary to
Whitewater is now up to the state,
and it is hoped that at the coming
session of the legislature some ac-.
ton of the kind will be taken. The
Navajo county supervisors and the
county engineer are doing their
best to urge that the appropriation
be made to match that of the fed
eral government. AS to the neces-
sity of the work there can be no
question. The road is one of the
most travelled from this section to
the southern part of the state and
vice versa, and it would be of great
value to the indian reservation
through which it passes.
Another appropriation that is
being urged is the one for 100000
to match federal aid for the build
ing of the bridge at Lees Ferry,
across the Colorado river, into
Utah. This measure also will be
brought before the legislature for
action. With the completion OF
the bridge and the Improvement OF
the road much travel from Utah

We once knew a man of SUBJ

of mortgagem In that way he raised
money to buy adjoining land. He
was always spurred on by an am.
bition to lift the mortgage in order
that he might put ON another sor

he could not be happy in a state Of

But the man whose whole earn

At the outset, nothing.
But there would be three SUBJ
sequent dangers, anyone of which
might arise to affect Mexico's po-.
sition as a market for $140,000,-

Try of approximately $170,000.-

1: An internal revolution.

g. American intervention.
These possibilities, of course,
depend respectively upon the
present strength of the Gales

the Mexican people and the
lengths to which the United

the benefit of American oil and

If President Coolidge We're to
sever relations with the Gales
government, these fellows would
feel they were being told to "go

tually have this country's official

A real revolution probably
would disrupt Mexico's foreign

Mexicans against the United

day. The score was 11-9. 2-6, 6-3.
After Tilden evened affairs by TAX
ing the fourth set, Richards appeared
to the spectators to be more worn
by the battle than the champion, and
the general expectation was that Til.
den would take the fifth set.
The Olympic player. however,
proved surprise by obtaining a lead
of 4-1. Tilden took two of the next
three and in the last game of the
match, on Richards service, the cham
pion was leading at 30-love. BY dar-
ing services, however, Richards forced
Tilden into two errors, evening the
points, and the game then went to
deuce. Richards got the advantage
point on a backhand volley close to
the side line and won the match and
championship with a low return to
Tilden's backhand
1t was Richards second victory over
Tilden in month, the other having
