THE EVENING Roosevelt Four Years More Inconceivable, Says Ford President Indepe Henry Ford tells here his reasons Jor supporting Gov. Landon in the presidential race and gives his views on industrial progress and the European situation in an inter- view obtained by an eminent journalist who received the 1933 Pulitzer award for distinguished Joreign correspondence. Later, the writer, who was president of the Berlin Foreign Correspondents’ Association, was ezpelled from Ger= many by the Hitler regime. BY EDGAR ANSEL MOWRER. DETROIT, October 30 (N.ANA). —"“I just cannot conceive having Roosevelt for another four years.” Whereupon Henry Ford uncrossed his legs, crossed them again, fumbled with a tiny plaid-bound book and re- sumed: “Once Roosevelt had taken office, I offered him my co-operation. But I found it impossible. You just cannot depend on the man for anything. “The Government! But who is the Government?” And without waiting for an answer, he continued in & voice so low that it was almost in- audible: “That sort of thing may go in Eu- rope, but we just aren’t that sort of people. “But Landon is different. I met | Landon here and we got on fine. You | remember when Coolidge was Presi- | i dent they used to go in and ask him | all sorts of silly questions about how | to do this and do that and he never | answered a word, he just grunted. And they had to go back home and tend to their own business without | any butting in from him. Landon is| like Coolidge. I am for Landon. I haven't voted for 20 years, but I am going to vote this time. For Landon and for Knox. Now there’s a vigorous fellow. I met him two years ago at| Alma, Mich., where he went to school. | | No Vice President has ever got out and | campaigned the way he is doing.

After a second he began talking again. “Of course, we are going to have prosperity again. Lots of it. But we can expect some more bad depressions, too. You see, most of the manufactur- ers won't keep up with the times. They don’t replace good machinery with better. But the machines are im- proving all the time. Why, right here in Dearborn we could put in better machines.” “But didn't you just replace your plant a few years ago?” the interviewer asked. “Yes, The lathes are still all right, but already the rest could certainly be improved. The new machines aren’t made yet, but we know how they ought to be made. Why don't the manufacturers keep up with the times? Why didn’t the French fel- lows pay decent wages for shorter hours so they wouldn’t have all those strikes?” Mr. Ford stopped, but his assistant, William J. Cameron, answered: “That's the European idea, and lots of fellows here have the same Euro- pean notions.” Financiers Hold Back. Henry Ford moved about a little. “The manufacturers don't keep up because their bosses, the financiers in New York, won't let them. The financiers get rich by wrecking ine dustry. Once the damage is done, they turn to something else. High Don’t be ‘“‘ashamed” of your house. Neglectful e: depreciation iveries free Phone or Come In. Free Delivery. J. FRANK 2121 Ga.

It cost me a hundred million dollars to get out of their hands, but it had to be done.” Mr. Ford's eyes flashed for a second and his voice strengthened. “What about the labor situation in Detroit and Toledo?” the interviewer continued. “We have no trouble at Dearborn,” Mr. Ford answered, with a touch of pride, looking out on the artificial lake before the laboratory where we sat. “But the labor leaders—" “Who are the labor leaders? They come from New York, too. Who is behind them? The same New York financiers. “The Black Legion, too?" “Just & handful.” Henry Ford is 73 years old. teaded to shift. in the Asiatic markets.

It isn’t the events that count, it's the opportuniy for human experience.” Somehow, he looked even frailer than usual, under his sun-brown skin. Politics seemed remote. More inter- esting to him was the show village of Dearborn he has created, with its in- creasing number of reproductions of historically famous American build- ings. “We know it must all come out right in the long run,” said the friend of ‘Thomas Edison, wriggling a little on his chair. “Meanwhile, the short run may be somewhat less satisfactory,” the inter- viewer felt impelled to remark. “That’s just it,” Mr. Ford agreed. “It changes.” ‘Was he thinking of the new Lincoln Zephyr, the N.

Shave in Self-Serve Shops. Moscow, Russia, has opened a self- | serve barber shop as an experiment. In quarters formerly occupied by=an old-style barbering establishment | comfortable chairs have been lined | up before washstands and long mir- Tors. Customers are invited to sit | and shave themselves for a nominal sum. The only barber present is Nina Saveiiyeva who is called an “in- | structor.” Her duties require her to see ‘o it that patrons wash their hands before shaving and receive the necessary supplies. Also, she is| pleased to instruct the inexperienced | how to do an artistic job. It is likely that more shops of the kind will be established, a vote of customers showing that most of them approve of the new method. You, too, will find it delight- fully natural to take root at the Taft, and you will flourish in its hospitality and courteous sorvice. 2000 ROOMS WITH BATH, from $2.50 HOTEL AtrrepLewss, Myr. 611 7th St. NW.
