NO DEPRESSION
FORD ASSERTS
By LESLIE ID. HARROP
United Press Staff Correspondent

Copyright 1893, BY United Press)
DEARBORN, Mich, Feb. l. -
The depression is over and we are
in a period of recovery, Henry
Ford told the United Press in an
exclusive interview today.
The period from 1928 to 1929
was the real depression, Mr.. Ford
stated. for it was then that quail
ity and design in manufactured
things came to a standstill, prices
went up and values dropped.
Five years more of the so-called
"boom period would have ruined
this country" he asserted.
Technocracy he dismissed as whim
of the times; a moving picture
label for an old story; dictatorship
by college professors"
Machinery will never go until
man is ready to resume old methods
and give up the ease and leisure it
had produced for him.
Everybody I talk to these days
wants me to discus technocracy,
said Ford, "or prophesy the return
of the bad old times. 1t simply
shows how little thinking is being
done these days
IF people would stop to think
they would see that nothing could
be worse than return of what
we had previous to 1929. We are
just recovering from that period"
Imperial Valley press., 1933-02-01

, 125 feet. A new steel beam has
been placed in the front of the
store to support the extra weight
of heavy steel folding doors which
have been installed. A new side
walk has been built and the exter-
ior of the store front has been re-
painted.
On the inside the store has been
greatly improved. All new fixtures
have been installed permitting an
attractive display of goods, fix
lures, walls and all woodwork be-
ing finished in a neat and restful
shade of green.
With the reopening of the rem
ovated store, Safeway will operate
its own meat department, in charge
of George o. Kelly, with Guy Bird
assisting him. The latest design in
show cases will permit meats to
be displayed without being exposed
to air or dust, all meats being kept
fresh by refrigeration system
Safeway has established a reputa-
ton for the high quality of its
meats, only baby beef and the best
in pork and lamb being purchased.
An innovation which will be
pleasing to customers in summer
weather is cooling system which
will keep the temperature in the
store several degrees below that in
the street, permitting patrons to
shop in comfort. X-ray lights of
the latest design, giving abundant
light without causing eye strain,
have been installed throughout the
store.
Because of the enlarged space
and extra departments, the per-
sonnel of the store will be in
creased by six persons, making 10
in the grocery department and two
in the meat department.
The general contract for altera-
tions was awarded to Emery Cir
ard, and sub-contracts were given
to the Ferguson Electric company,
Richmond Brothers, plumbing, and
j. H. Johnson, painting.
"We have been highly pleased
with the patronage extended to us
by Ell Centro residents in the past"
Fiske stated, "and believe it has
justified the expense to which we
have gone in enlarging and reno
waiting our store. The additional
space and new equipment will per-
NIT us to give the very best in
service to our customers. The
highest quality goods at prices that
enable shoppers to save money are
offered the public and in the at
tractive surroundings afforded by
our new store shopping will be
made real pleasure
"a chance to make real savings
in purchases will be afforded by
our opening sale," said Manager
Mantle, land we invite shoppers to
watch for our advertisement in The
Press. We are always glad to as
Sist customers with advice and in
formation on our goods, and serve
them in any way possible. Our OBJ
ject is not the profit on the i'm
mediate sale, but to keep the custo-
mers' good will and make them
want to return to our store reg
ularly. We shall be pleased to see
all our old friends and many new
ones when we reopen for business
tomorrow"

SNOW BLOCKS
INDIAN TRIBE

GRAND CANYON, Ariz., Feb. l..
W.R-Blocked behind huge barriers
of deep SHOWS, more than 200 In
dians on the isolated Havasupai
reservation were near starvation
today, Superintendent Roy Adams
informed officials here today.
Sufficient wood for fuel and shell
ter was believed available, it was
said.
The recent IL days of continuous
snowfall shut off the reservation
from the remainder of the world,
Superintendent Adams telephoned
M. r. Tillotson, superintendent of
the Grand Canyon National Park.
The Havasupai reservation is To-
Gated in the small side canyon of
the Grand Canyon and is 38 miles
from here by devious and winding
trails down the steep slopes.
The Indians have been without
food or supplies for the past week.
Adams informed officials here.
The food usually is packed in to
the reservation from here.
Adams requested snow plows to
be used to open the 38-miles road
to the head of Havasu Canyon
where it meets trails to the reser-
Vation.
Rangers and National Park en-
ployees started the difficult task
of removing deep SHOWS from the
road as soon as word of the In
dians' plight reached here.
OFFICIALS were confident they
could break through the impeding
barriers in two days. The road is
