Announcement that General smedley Butler will

Pennsylvania against Senator James J. Davis insures
Pennsylvania and the of the country of at least
one contest that ought to be exceedingly interesting

DROHIBITION has ceased to be
l. a sincere effort at moral re-
form, if, indeed, it ever has.
All it stands for now is pig
headed determination to retain po-
litical power by virtue of an or
gained minority large enough to
keep control of one-fourth of the
states and thus prevent change
in the Constitution.
That is not the kind of govern
ment, the kind of law, the kind of
moral code our fathers had In mind
when they founded this republic.

4 R.I1K
a DAY
BY BRUCE CATION

TN THE Tragedy of Henry Ford
4 Jonathan Norton Leonard I'M
dertakes to debunk the worlds most
famous industrialist. Whether he
succeeds is something each reader
must decide for himself. Certainly
the book is sharply critical piece
of work.
Ford, says this writer, is an ex-
1 tremely limited man who has had
just one good idea-the idea that
there is a tremendous market for
automobiles if only they are priced
cheaply enough.
He got this idea back at the
dawn of the present century, and
made it his guiding star. 1t made
the Ford Motor Co. the greatest
firm of its kind on earth and
made Ford the worlds richest man.
But Ford himself, the writer in
Sists, contributed that idea and
nothing more.
Ford, he says, is not a mechanic,
not a financial genius, not a clear
thinking economist, not a skilled
induStrialist. During the period of
his rise, he says, he leaned on men
like Couzens and the Dodge
brothers; when they left him his
troubles began and today Mr.. Leon
ard calls him just another automo-
bile manufacturer.
Leonard gives plenty of space to
such unfortunate episodes in Ford's
life as the peace ship, the jew
batting campaign and the Chicago
Tribune libel suit.
He is also violently critical of
working conditions at the Ford
plant, and he has bitter things to
say about Ford's "paternalism" to-
ward his workers.
You may find the book unfair,
in spots, but you'll not find it un-
interesting anywhere. 1t is pub
hshed by Putnam, and sells for So
