direction OF his industrial empire.

nate whose rapid recovery from the
major operation he underwent last
saturday has amazed even the most
optimistic, received newspapermen
Thursday in his suite in the Henry
Ford hospital.
Rumors he is contemplating retire.
ment drew chuckles from Ford and
he reminded his questioners, "the only
way to retire is to retire every night
ana get up early the next morning
ready to work again."
Ford said he was going to "show
them something really new" in auto
mobiles and indicated his dream of
utilizing farm products in industry
was another step toward realization
The paint on the 1893 Ford, he said.
Will be developed from oil extracted

LEADERS LIKE TO
Be CAR|CATURED
Curtis, Garner, Hoover and
Coolidge Get Pleasure
From Cartoons

Washington, Dec. 2. - @ - More
than 40 years Of cartooning in thu
nations capital have taught Cliffort
K. Bergman, Of the Washington Eve
ming Star, that men like to chuckle
at themselves.
Far from taking umbrage at the ex.
aggerated physiognomies that come
from the cartoonists pen, presidents
vice presidents, speakers and senators
vie with each other in collecting
their own caricatures. the veteran
cartoonist said.
Take Charles Curtis and Cactus
Jack Garner for instance.
Curtis has thirty-eight Of Berry
mans cartoons of him In q framed
frieze in his vice presidential office
During the recent campaign, Berry.
man turned the full barrage Of his
wit upon vice presidential candidate
Garner, principally poking fun at his
lack Of verbosity.
As fast as the sphinx series" Gar
ner cartoons were published, Speaker
Garner sent to Bergman for the orig
inals.
I'm going to make Charles Curtis
look like a piker," said Garner, and
now he has more than 40 Bergman
cartoons to make new frieze for that
vice presidential office.
Bergman conceded, q few men, in
Guiding President Hoover. had picked
slight flaws in their thinning. The
president, who derives great enjoy
ment from an odd collection Of por-
traiture Of himself, told Cartoonist
Bergman his pencil had not paid
proper attention to the results OF
medicine ball.
"Your are making me too fat"
pointed out the president, at the same
time selecting the fishing ones to
hang at Camp Rapidan. =
Appreciative indeed was Calvin
Coolidge, cartooned in cowboy outfit,
Indian garb. and scores Of other
laugh-producing guises. !,
