for Factory Workers.
BIZ United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, April 26.-Henry
Ford, Detroit motor car manufac-
turer, here on pleasure tour,
called on President Hoover and
outlined to him his ideas for COM
bining farming and industry.
On leaving the White House, Ford
said he had told the President that
city workers, if put on plots of
ground away from crowded factory
communities, could save as much
as $500 a year each If they would
raise their own foodstuffs for ta-
BILE use"
The gray-haired manufacturer,
looking leaan and fit, said he told
Mr.. Hoover he believes farmers
should put in less time on actual
farm work. and that the time saved
could be used in local industries.
The plan, Ford said, roughly is
that big factories should distribute
their workers over farm lands, put
ting their workers where they could
raise their own food at least.
On prohibition Ford was emphat-
icallly in favor of supporting the
eighteenth amendment.

ALBANIAN Is Permitted to
Address Chamber on
Election Contest.

By Htted Press
WASHINGTON, April 26.-The
resounding oratory of j. Thomas
Hef1in, former senator from Ala
bama. once more echoed through
the senate halls today as he spoke
in support of his contention that
he had been defrauded of re-elec-
ton as senator from Alabama in
1890.
Senator Bankhead Dem., Ala.)
whose election Hef1in is contesting,
was not in the chamber when the
former senator arose from the seat
assigned to Senator Swanson Dem,
Va and began speaking. Bank
head arrived later and sat in the
rear row on the same side of the
aisle.
Practically the whole senate body
remained in the chamber.
Hef1in began by thanking the SEN
ate for going back to 1851 for a
precedent and allowing him to speak.
Only in extraordinary cases are
nonmembers allowed to address the
senate.
Voices Gratitude
Fl shall never cease to be grateful
for the kindness and justice done
me in this regard" he said.
The former senator outlined
briefly the progress of the contest
He asserted that he had not been
given sufficient time to take testi-
mony in central and southern Ala
bama, and that no time at all had
been allowed for rebuttal evidence.
adding that the case was without
a parallel in the history of this
body"
The idea of turning off the con-
testant and saying, Your contest is
closed" Heflin continued. What
Kind Of justice is that?"
Hef1in recalled that the contest
had been declared closed while he
was out Of town.
"ActiOn in Absence"
10 and behold" he said. while I
was gone the contestant and his
friend on this side, with the aid of
my genial friend, Senator Blaine,
decided to take action in my alb
sence.
Il have always tried to be fair
and just, and I expect that in re-
turn from my former comrades"
Heflin paid tribute to the sense
of fair play" of Chairman Short

the case even before it was brought

Helm was read out of the regu-

pendent" Democrat. Bankhead
was given majority of about $4,000
in the official returns. Heflin claims
there were widespread irregularities
