Mr. Ellis is said to be highly re-

circles, and, if his opening cam

He told his first audience he was
seeking the Office because he felt a

satisfied with their prospects OF
representation and because he had a
vision of larger and more useful

Well-informed sources believe Mr.
Ellis will draw votes away from Mr.
Collins as we'll as from Senator
Bilbo.
A fourth man making an active
campaign is Nelson T. Levings, who

it for granted that the Democratic
nomination is equivalent to election.
OF course, not all of the 100000
colored veterans would be eligible
without the poll tax requirement.
Many of them are under voting
age. But the Importance Of siz-
able bloc of potential GI votes be-
comes apparent when the figures
for the senatorial elections in 1912
are studied.
In the first primary in 1912. the
total vote cast for five candidates
was only l22, BAG A second primary
was necessary and in the run-of
only l3l 1875 voted. Senator East
land won that primary with 74,747
ballots to 6,746 for former Senator
Wall DoXeV.
In November. 1912. Senator East
lands vote in the general election
dropped to 5l.355, indicating that
more than 10000 of his supporters
in the primary did not bother to go
10 the polls, since MS election was a
foregone conclusion.
There will be a Republican NOM
inee for Senator on the ballot in
November this year He is George
L. Sheldon. a former governor of
Nebraska from 1906 to 1908, who
moved to Mississippi and makes his
home at Clinton. Mr.. Sheldon rep

main 10000 white veterans who
would have no difficulty entering the
Democratic party. II these men are
thinking along one line, their votes
easily could be the determining
factor.
One veteran political observer was
asked if he thought the average
returning serviceman would be in
clined to follow the long standing
preference of his family as between
the leading Democratic aspirants.
He replied that while it undoubt-
edly will be true in some cases, he
believed it likely that some families
would be swayed by the views OF
their returning veteran.

Of the colored generation returning
from the war have a better chance

FORD DEALER LEARNS
CAUSE OF AUTO SHORTAGE

Following is the text of tele-
gram sent Thursday night, Feb. q,
by Henry Ford II from Los An
geleS to Chester BowleS, Office of
Price Administration, Washington,
and released through Fred Ken
nedy, Mt. Victory Ford dealer:
Your public statement of Thurs
day leaves me no other course but
to make public certain facts which
you either do not know or refuse
to reveal.
Our application to OPA on last
July 20 was made While we were
still at war with Japan. Since
fighting had stopped in Europe, the
War Production Board decided
that limited production of auto
mobiles was in the public interest.
A total of 39,910 was fixed by
WPB as the maximum number of
passenger cars the Ford Motor
Company could produce during the
last six months of 1945.
Obviously you cannot make &c.
$40 cars in six months in a plant
designed to produce more than
100000 every month without great
ly increasing production cost per
unit. Low cost depends on volume
production, as everyone knows. So
when the Government--not the
Ford Motor Company-fiXed pro-
duction volumes it thus determined
cost and selling price.
Let me give a specific example.

estimated for that small volume
Have no fear tnat tne Ford Mo-
tol Company will charge the A
merican people one penny more
than it has TO for cars. If we did,
competition would take care of
such a situation very quickly.
Fer your information, Mr. Bowl
es, to meet competition we now
are selling one of our truck models
at $500 below OPA ceilings.
We would like to sell all Ford
cars below OPA price ceilings, not
above. But low costs and low
prices depend on large-scale pro-
ductiCn. That, in turn, depends up
on an uninterrupted flow of parts
and materials to our assembly
lines. When you say that only from
10 to 25 per cent of our parts are
under OPA price control you miss
the point, Shortage on only few

CPA Action Halls Two
Construction Jobs
Al La Fontaine's

The Civilian Production Admin
istration yesterday invaded Jimmy
La Fontaine's gambling place or
Bladensburg road, just over the Dis.
trict line, ordered work stopped or
one ''nonhousing" construction
project and obtained voluntary
agreement to halt another.
Investigators found that a barn
was being built of lumber and a
three-story fire escape of steel with.
out prior authorization of the CPA
Work on the barn was voluntarily
halted, the CPA announced. The
barn was just about completed yes
terday when the owners of Jimmy s
place agreed to quit work on it, the
CPA said.
The order was given to stop work
on a fire escape, also in the final
stages Of construction.
In connection with that project
the CPA informed the establishment
that failure to comply may subject
you to severe criminal penalties
provided by law" but at the same
time pointed out that the club could
request hearing on the compliance
action.
Edward M. Synan, Washington
area construction manager for the
CPA, said his Office had received nc
applications for any construction on
the property. He pointed out prop
erty owners can spend up to $40C
for alterations and repairs on any
dwelling without prior authorize
ton.
If it is commercial enterprise
he added, up to $1,000 can be ex-
pended without permission from
.CPA.
