The tomato crop in this section
has proved a very short one owing
to the recent storm, while those
who did not contract at the can

serious injury in this section were
sweet potatoes and soy beans, the
prospect for good yields and prices
bids fair to be good at this time.

II VELYN PRENTICE" by w. E.
L Woodward. is the brisk and
straightforward story of bored
young wife. an aging husband and
q slick young city teller.
The wife in question has more
money and leisure than are alto
gether good for her. She is de-
voted TO her husband and she is
faStidious enough to abstain from
the customary monkey business OF
her set; but she just naturally has
more time on her hands than she
can use. and when she encounters
a soft-spoken young poet She drifts,
very casually. into an adventure.
Unfortunately. II Is often a lot
easier 10 drift into an adventure
OF this kind than It IS 10 drift out
Of il again. and our young wife is
not long in making this discovery.
Her poet turns out 10 be conniv-
ing rogue, he sponges on her for
money. boards the love letters she
sends him and at last. when she
wants 10 break things of. uses
them TO blackmail her.
The wife. consequently, finds
herself in an utterly impossible
situation. Being a yourg lady Of
spirit. she does, what other young
ladies of spirit have done before
uses a revolver 70 settle things.
The poet is blotted out the wife

scared, sadder and wiSer-She goes
safely back to the arms OF her IN

significance IN all of this. But it's

is just as good business today as
it was then. good business for
everybody
There have been times when
high wages at the Ford plant sim
ply enabled our workers to go out
and buy the cars of some other
maker who perhaps was paying
poor wages, while his workers
couldn't afford TO buy either his
car or ours.
That is the sort of thing that
can't happen under the indus
trial recovery act. Good minimum
wages all around will mean good
business for everybody. And I
think the government intends to
make it stick"
You can't pin labels on Henry
Ford. But he is at least a little
bit Of a technocrat. He doesn't
believe in democracy as a ruling
caste system or as plan of gov
eminent. but they had one idea,
at least ne admits. The idea of
production for use. That is abso-
lutely sound.
"A business ought to make
money, yes, but not for the sake
Of money. To put back into ex-
banding, building up, research, and
the safeguarding of the business

FORD retains an evident life

But aren't those very men by
their ingenuity and skill The ones
who are cutting down the oppor-
tunity TO work, the number of
jobs and creating chronological
unemployment? Ford shook his
head emphatically.
"So-called chronological unem-
ployment is largely a myth" he
said. There are more men at

there ever were carriage makers.

nETROIT, July 25.-Henry
II Ford. 10 years old next Sun
day, and a rugged individualist"
if there ever was one, has no more
fear Of the future than the most
ardent young enthusiast in Presi-
dent Roosevelt's brain trust.
Changing times, an uncharted
future. the beginning of a new
era, abandonment of the gold
standard. a new deal for capital
and labor-these worry him not
at all The suggestion that many
people are confused and shaken
by an unstable present and an
uncertain future brought a quick
reaction from Ford.
"Afraid?" he asks. What are
they afraid OFF"
He dropped the foot he had
propped against the edge of a
desk in an Office in his Dearborn
plant and leaned eagerly forward
in his chair
What is anybody afraid Of?
OF course, we now are at the end
Of an era" he went on. But
what is there about that to be
afraid Of? There is a place in
the world for everybody. That's
basic under any system
Why the changes that are
taking place make today even bet
ter as a time Of opportunity. Op-
poftunity is always the same, ex-
cept that it becomes more numer-
Gus.
This talk about the end of in
dividualism is nonsense. You'll
notice that only the strongest
kind Of individualists talk that
way. There will always be oppor-
tunity for the individualist.
GONE things are being de-
- stroyed today. but there are
some things that ought TO be de-
stroyed. The wrecker and the
builder both have their place.
Sometimes it takes a wrecker to
make place where the BUILDER
can build. But there is a place
for everybody in any scheme of
things We might adopt"
Many people are worried. sug-
gested. because Of the worldwide
confusion over money.
Suppose We come 70 an entire
ly new conception Of money, and
of banking? Something all new,
without any connection with gold?
What Of it?" Ford'S quiet
voice became more emphatic.
What of it? Nine-tenths of all

anyway. and what is a check?
The credit of somebody who has
produced something! I've no OBJ

wants gold. have 1t. The rest of
US can get along without it.
It became clear that Ford re-

committed-that is outside Of get

touched, boarded, handled, but as
sort of life-blood flowing
through productive industry.
I recalled how the net worth Of
the Ford Motor Company had
dropped more than IS, eco 900
last year. Money Ford had had,
and which was gone.
T ASKED how it felt to lose
l. s57.OO0,OoO in a year. His I'M
usual view of money came imme-
diately to the surface.
I'VE didn't lost a cent" he said
quietly. I'VE just spent that
much more than We took in. The
money wasn't lost. 1t was spent,
in wages. in material, in useful
work. It's still in productive use
somewhere in the country. That's
not losing money!"
Signs Of the upturn that is.
quickening throughout the indus
trial world were discussed. Ford
agreed that they appear most
promising.
But even if industry gets back
TO normal production again." 7
asked, suppose it is unable to re-
absorb a great many of the people
it once had Jobs for? What will
become of them?'
Industry never has been able
to absorb all the people who
wanted to absorb it," Ford shot
back. ut is a fallacy to assume
that industry can, or should, sup
port all or most Of the people.
The purpose Of industry is to work
for the people, not to have all
the people working for it.
yet because industry has
caused so many people to leave
their homes and find themselves
stranded in the city, it is up to
industry to help them solve their
problem.
U AM doing this by decentral-
Il izing spreading small in
dustries throughout the country,
so that people may have a double
security. one in the land, another
in their jobs. People are leaving
the cities to go back to the land.
The tidal wave that swept them
there is receding.
But as they go, they take with
them not only the same abilities
they had when they came to the
cities, but new abilities acquired
there. They are better trained,
better thinkers.
LAS industry decentralizes,
which we already have Begin to
Go, people will find a new way of
combining native abilities brought
from the country with new skills
learned in the cities. Then they
won't go around demanding that
somebody give them a job.
They will make their own Jobs.
They will be free of the pay roll
habit. Just because a man is off
the pay roll, he needn't be out of
a job"
With the government now seek
ing TO enforce as part of the New
Deal" minimum wage codes in all
leading industries, any conversa-
ton with Ford naturally must
turn to his own pioneering along
minimum wage lines.
Many have seen a prophetic
touch in the revolutionary"
stroke of a few years ago when
Ford adopted a SIS minimum wage
