DETROIT, Nov. l2- (E9 -
Henry Ford said today that If

tiple-engine carg O. passenger
planes Will be manufactured al
Willow Run after the war.
The government has given
US first option on Willow Run

to take up the option, - Ford
said.
He added that while war work
had precluded extensive expert
mental work some research
looking 10 development Of the
plane had been carried on with
small models and engines.
The design, he said, isn't
complete. but we are trying 10
develop a plane which will not
need such tremendously long
runways for take-off and land
ing, a plane which can be oper-
ated al a fraction of the cost now
necessary for flying big planes,
and one which Will be as posi-
lively safe as II is possible 10
make il.
Ford said he expected his
company TO experience greater
expansion after the war than at
present.
England" he said, already
has asked Us TO build new

He said his first reason for
taking up the option on willow

Initiation Remarks
Al Press Conference
To the Editor Of The Star:

40 tuo HultoE u 4no 0thEs
Your newspaper, like many an
other, Is serving the public well
every day by bringing to their at
tention the important subjects of
the day. I have great deal of re-
spect for The Evening Star and the
job 1t does day in and day out.
However, I was very much dis
turbed to read the story regarding
my press conference in this after
moons edition This story bore the
headline, Subsidies or Nothing is
OPA Anti-Inf1ation Plan. Bowles
says" and the subhead, Director
Declares Price Administration Has
No Secondary Line of Defense"
Quite frankly I think it puts an
implication on my statement which
is completely unwarranted. It is
misleading 1t implies that OPA will
throw in the sponge. The story
leaves the impression that OPA
threatens to give up its efforts to
control prices If Congress votes
against subsidies.
1t seems to me important that the
public understand the position of
this agency.
The point thought I had made
was that there cannot be a new
stable line in price ceilings. Once
the present line breaks and increases
start, there is bound to develop a
series of new pressures, one leading
to others, which increases costs, first
here then there. If you raise one
mans prices you raise the cost of
10 others. That is why I said:
You can't throw out subsidies and
still say you are going to hold the
line on living COSTS"
Regardless of the outcome on the
subsidy issue, the task of controlling
prices obviously remains. If the
limited use of subsidies is discon-
tinued, we shall make every effort
to keep increases to the very mini
mum. We will be just as deter
mined to do our part in stabilizing
prices for the American family and
costs for American business.
AS have often stated, the ques-
ton OF continuing the present cost
Of living program, with the limited
use of subsidies, is policy matter
to be decided by Congress. Con-
gress is our Board of Directors
Whatever its decision, we shall hold
to our determination to keep prices
as stable as possible, within the
limits of the law.
