FORD To MAKE
EUROPEAN WAGE
SURVEY PUBLIC
Figures Sought to Decide
Pay Level in Plants
Across Ocean.

By Times Special
NEW YORK, Dec. 9.-Henry
Ford's survey to determine how
much he will have 10 pay his Euro
pean workmen in order to enable
them to live as well as his Ameri->
can employees nearly is complete
and shortly will be made public.
The findings, the Review of Re
views declares, threaten to stir again
the antipathy of European business
men and politicians against America.
The survey was undertaken for
Ford by the international labor Of
flee, semi-independent branch OF
the League of Nations, after the De-
troit manufacturer announced a
year ago that he would pay Ameri-
can wages in his more than twenty
European factories. France. and
Italy did their utmost to kill the
inquiry.
The most recent statistics OBJ
tanned by the investigators, iona
than Mitchell says in the Review
Of Reviews, show that American
workers receive from two to five
times as much as Europeans. This
comparison is in purchasing power.
Italians Poorly Paid
Although such statistics have
been gathered for several years,
they have not been published wide
~ in Europe. Because of the i'm
portance of Ford's name, the report
on his survey Mitchell declares, will
receive notice everywhere.
italians will discover" he says,
that in the United States work
men can have five times as much
TO eat, five times as many rooms
TO live in and clothes which are five
times as expensive. Furthermore,
they will learn that they are worse
of than any other Workmen in
modern Europe. They are worse off
even than the workers of Spain and
Estonia."
In varying degrees, the same in
formation will be disseminated TO
Other european nations, says Mitch
ell. and increased unrest among
workers is feared as result. All
this he declared will be blamed on
Ford
Watched Loss of Markets
In every country" he continues,
manufacturers and their political
spokesman assert that wages al
ready are too high, and that any
further increase would be national
suicide.
Europeans have come to regard
Ford as a sort of symbol of Ameri-
can big business. They have watched
American big business take markets
away from them in Asia, in South
America, in Africa. Now they are
beginning to ask themselves whether
Europe itself eventually will not

LITTLE HEED is PAID
U. S. HOLIDAY IN PARIS
Few American Flags Appear and
Small Crowd Attends Rites

BIZ United Press
PARIS, July 4.-The Fourth Of
July was celebrated in France today
more quietly than at any time since
the World war.
Only one ceremony nearing an
official French recognition of Amer
icas independence anniversary was
held here. That was luncheon at
the American conservatory at
Fontainebleu, presided over by the
minister of the navy, Jaqua Louis
DumeSnil.
American flags were few in the
city, and only half the usual at
tendance was present at the morn
ing ceremony at the monument TO
American volunteers in the French
army. The monument still shows
traces of the mutilation it received
during the anti-American wave in
1926.
without fireworks and without
cocktails, the Americans in Paris
we're received by Ambassador and
Mrs. Walter E. Edge this afternoon
in the beautiful embassy garden
overlooking the famous Trocadero
gardens.

PINE TREE SHATTERED
 BY LIGHTNING BOLT
Israel Putnm School House Struck Current Enters Building Through
 Roof

Putnam was in the thunderstorm belt during the noon hour last Satur- day. In comparison to storms expert enced north and west of. this city all Putnam had was an April shower. From Worcester and Hartford come reports of loss of life and thousands of dollars worth of damage.
 Lightning bolts struck in two plac- es in this city. A veteran pine tree near the home of Ernest C. Morse was hopelessly shattered. The aerial at the home of Edward H. Burt was knocked off. At the Israel Putnam school lightning tore through the roof and into the building. It found it's way out on the electric light wir- es. Superintendent of Schools Leon N. Farrin was in the building but was not injured.
