Ford Discusses Hoover Manufacturer Declares He Is Best Man in Country For Position He Occupies Under Changing Economic and Political Conditions. BY A. M. SMITH. DETROIT, May 31 (N.AN.A).—With economic and political conditions changing every day, President Hoover is the best man in the country for the pP%flélon he occuples, according to Henry rd. “He has a conscience, for one thing,” Mr. Ford said. “He belleves in living up to his promises and insists on his party doing the same thing. That is not so common in politics as to be passed in silence. “Nobody envies the President his job except the man who does not under- stand how difficult it is. It is not mere- ly the administration of the Government, that falls on the President in times like these, but the people look to him for leadership in the work of economic restoration. “The President started that work some time ago. In fact, before the break in the stock market the Presi- dent was aware of the dangerous ten~ today | dencies. He tried to forestall them. The country will rgmember how the Government attempted to cool the wild spirits of the speculators by making gambling money a little harder to get, and it remembers how this attempted 0| control was resented by financial in- e H EgE .

And the President had no power to compel them to listen. President Can Only Advise. “That is one of the things a Presi- dent has to put up with—he can ad- vise, but he cannot compel the coun- try to take his advice. He can only 'h;lg the country to do what it is ready 0. “When our economic trouble finally arrived, as all thoughtful men knew it would, the President tried again to stem the’ worst consequencies. He got hold of the industrial leaders of the United States and told them not to rock the boat, to hold everything steady—above all things not to cut Did they take his advice? wages. ‘Those who did were wise; those who | did not injured the country. The Presi- dent was right in both instances, and very farseeing, and the country will| have to adopt his counsel in full before we can get hack on the main road of prosperity. It 1is regrettable that American business did not listen to him earlier last year. In his con- structive counsel to the country he has not sounded one false note. Thrift in Expenditure. “I have no basis for saying s0, but I feel that the President would not agree to the E‘mgnm of curtailment in any- thing that has to do with production, whether in industry or agriculture. and make all they can and pay all they can and buy all they can and use all they can, for that is the way to go forward in this country. Our best it is aroducuve expenditures. here is a bi r on in this coun- try, a war between business as a serv- jce to human life and business as a source of private profit. After all, the only way to justify our business ac- tivity is to show that we are serving the life of the people. Doing business on the principle of ‘all the traffic will bear’ is bound to disappear. I am sure the service principle will win, but I can't say when it will become universal. It always wins where it is tried. I hould say that the President is on the Box of Face Powder With Each Everybody ought to grow all they can | |the Grand Avenue State Bank side of business as a service and cer- tainly that is where we should expect him to be.” “They say the President is not much gf ; politician,” was suggested to Mr. ord. “If he was, he probably never would have been President,” Mr. Ford replied. “The people distrust liticlans. 1 don’t mean public servants when I say politicians. ~ We need and recognize and respect public_servants. I don't understand why a President should be expected to be a politician. We send a large number of Representatives to ‘Washington to look after the welfare of the Nation. That is all they have to do. There 15 no room for politics in that. Why should a President have to lay politics with Congress? No more han Congress should have to play poli- tics with a President—which would be disgraceful. Both of them have the same job—working for the country; and there is no politics in that. So far as I have been able to observe, politics con- sists chiefly in serving oneself. So that it is rather in a man’s favor that, hold- ing public office, he is not considered a politician.” Feel President is for Them. “How do you think President Hoover has impressed the country during his first year in office?” Mr. Ford was asked. “Well, about all the country is able to feel concerning a President in the first year of his administration is whether he is for the people or against them,” Mr. Ford replied. “The people of the United States feel that Mr. Hoover is for them without reserve. In this country a man’s detailed knowledge of his Government méstly depends on how much time he has before breakfast SiaR, Waovninuiol, PART IN DANCING Russian Wolf Hound Is to Be “Master of Ceremonies” in Program. BY GRETCHEN S. SMITH. A slim, white-haired individual of Russian cestry will judge the dance of his native land which, on June 7, will be interpreted at the Wardman Park Theater by eight young girls, members of the Evelyn Davis School. The individual, whose name is Nicolai, will be master of ceremonies at the request of his inseparable companion, | Miss Glorida de Sacas: youngest %!Hm-mm-m ago. ‘Although Nicolal is the personal of Miss Gloria, the Minister’s oldest daughter, Miss Maria, who made her ofll‘gfl bow to society d the past Winter, also shares the ection of the at dog. Stretched at full length on the drawing room of the Sacasa home, Nicolai ap] lazily _indif- ferent to the conversation which cen- tered about him, only oocasionally perking an ear with casual interest at the mention of his name. Won't Get Excited. Explaining_that Nicolai would take part in the Russian dance, Miss Gloria said: “He will be in the center and eight of us will dance around him. No, he won't get excited: he is always quiet and calm and friendly. He is very dif- ferent from Chils, she laughed. ‘Would you like to see Chila?” Going to the door, the little girl called in another wolfhound, who with one great bound, landed playfully in front at great pet of his da: stant companion of to the eounsellor of Don Evaristo Carazo. Fond of Sports and Dancing. Minister Sacasa's daughters are two of the most delightful members of the younger diplomatic set. Natural and spontaneous, they are both fond of dogs, sports and dancing. Miss Maria arrived in this country during the past Winter, coming to Washington from London, where she has been at school for the past two years. Her education has given her a fluent knowledge of the English h.nxu-fi. while at the same time she speaks French with equal ability, ha spent some time in school in Paris. Eleven-year-old Gloria, who attends icolal, she belongs the legation, Dr. FEDERAL SUPERVISION OF MOVIES IS URGED|c Baptists Convention Feels Pictures Demoralize Children and Hurt Foreign Relations.

That is the highest tribute the people give a President—the tribute of confidence. “Of course, Mr. Hoover merits this. Public instinct in these matters is never deceived. The people feel that he is the same man now that he was before and with the same convictions. In his stand on the tariff, in his refusal to equivocate about prohibition, he has convinced the country that he possesses eat moral strength.
