Newspaper Eo- torprise Asm. and United Presa Bervice Star: By mati, out of etty, months, $2.7 $5.00, In the state $4.60 for @ month Here’s How, Herbert Sometimes The Star is too exclusive. A short time ago we printed an exclusive ‘nterview with Henry Ford telling how he turned a broken-down jerk-line railroad into a humming success—a money-maker. Apparently Herbert Hoover failed to read that copy of The Star, and we're sorry now that we copyrighted the interview, thus prevent- ing the Washington papers from picking it up. The reason we are sorry is that Hoov- or’s newspaper, the Washington Herald, has just offered this observation to the world: If Henry Ford will invent something to get rid of the red tape which obstructs the operation of railroads, a grateful public may at last forget the peace ship, as he will have to do when he undertakes to put such an invention to work. The left-handed slap contained in the reference to the peace ship is immaterial; if Ford was willing to put one of his millions on the 100-to-1 chance of getting the joys out of the trenches by that method, it was his million that he spent and he never has complained about the loss of the money. But the matter of railroad red tape is important and Hoover ought to know what Ford is doing in that particular. For Hoover is credited with evolving the present scheme, now before congress, to use gov- ernment money to keep the railroads operating ALONG THEIR PRESENT LINES. Here, Herbert, in Henry’s own words, is how he did it: “We cut freight and passenger rates 20 per cent and we boosted wages. And it won't take long to reduce the rates 50 per cent. “All railroads could cut their rates in half. We've shown them how. But I'm afraid they won't do it. “Under Wall street management the only way they know to make money is higher railroad rates—which is the poorest way in the world to get business, “Keep the railroad busy and the equipment busy and all the men on it busy. “On the D. T. & I. we are getting along fine—making money where the road never made money before—making it because the men are busy and their hearts are in their work. “We eliminated waste and deadwood. All railroads can—and should—do the “There is too much tradition in the railroads— doing things in old-fashioned THE SEATTLE STAR From Motortal Review INSPIRATION BY ANNA BIRD STEWART Yours is the hand That kindles first the fire; Yours are the eyes That see the vision true; THE BIGGEST WORD IN THE LANGUAGE If the president, therefore, will as. nist us, or if he will not oppose, |thru his secretary of war, the re. | duction of the army to 100,000 men | 1 venture to say that the congress | will pass @ measure bringing about such a reduction without any con |niderable delay Senator Borah (it) | Idaho, A MODERN TENDENCY We have long since pulled up the anchor and gone away from the con SATURDAY, AUGUST 20, 1921, “WINDS OF THE WORLD” | seaseaaesaesTesteEIIT Copyright by Bobbs-Merrill sessssssesssesiensy BEGIN READING HERE TODAY WHO'S WHO IN STORY | JILL ATHERTON, who lives in Acacia Terrace, sur- rounded by poverty.
