HENRY FORD SEES
GOLDEN CENTURY
Motor Car M-lier Says Times Are
Good, Government Is O. K. and So
Is Mitchell.
Seal Harbor. Me . Sept. 19.—Henry
Ford says the United States is facing
a eemnry of prosperity.
"Times are good.” he said, "and
will be even better.
The motor car manufacturer was;
interviewed today in his ouinmer home *
here and his son. Edsel Ford, joined'
in. i.
The interview wa* arranged becausej
of a rumor that Uol. Mitchell, severe!
critic of the American air policy, was
to quit the army and join Lie Ford
airplane organization.
“Do you mean he is to join us if he
is fired from the army V” asked Edsel
Ford.
“If lie is tired or leaves." said the
reporter. "Is there any probability
of Uol. Mitchell’s entering the Ford
organization ?”
Roth Henry Ford and Edsel _ de
clared there was no basis for the
Mitchell story. The question had not
been diecussed nor considered.
“The story came about, no doubt,,
because Uol. Miti’hell made a visit ao
Detroit. His wife’s folks live there,** ;
said E(l«el Ford.
The conversation then turned to
Ford’s airplane interests.
“When are you going to have us i I
all flying about in planes. Mr. Ford?” j
“Whenever the public wishes,*’ ,
Henry Ford answered. "Public de- j
mand can be met always. It is as
true of the airplane as it is of tlie 1
automobile.”
Cal!r> Flying Safe.
“Then you believe the airplane has
become safe enough for common
use V’’
“Again it is the same as in the
case of the automobile.” Mr. Ford
«aid. “The first persons to drive
automobiles were heroes. They went '
. out in them and killed themselves or
crashed into trees and poles. but !
eventually learned t» drive. Today j
almost everybody can drive a car.
The same is true of airplanes. The
lust flyers are heroes, but when the!
public becomes accustomed to flying. I
flying will be common. As to safe
ty. cur planes are flying regularly
and without casualties.”
"If a need arises for more air
plane transport, airplanes can be used.
If an airplane can be used profitably,
airplanes will become more common.
There is no sense of having a thing
like that unless it is useful. Os
course, if you haven't the money to
buy an airplane you can’t have it.
“The airplane of the future, in my
mind, is a combination of dirigible,
heavier-than-air plane and ’helicopter, i
We are working toward that end 1
now. That gives you stability and
speed anil the ability to navigate more
easily.”
“How soon will that come?” he was
asked.
Henry Ford shrugged. They were j
working on it, that was all.
“What do you think of Col. Mitch
ell’s attack?” the reporter asked.
“You just keep in mind that uor
government is doing what is right,”
said Henry Ford. Then he wmiled
“Rut it’s a good thing to have some- '
body like Mitchell. Keeps things I
stirred up.”
The talk turned to national defense
and war. Were we to have more
wars? Yes. < Was lie still opposed
to war?
“Yes; and I’m opposed to capital
punishment for the same reason. Most
useless thing you can do to a man—
kill him. A man is useful if he
works. It is senseless to kill him.” :
Did Mr. Ford think our system of j
government was working out satis- j
factorily?
“Fine! lie exclaimed. “I like it j
just as it is. Wouldn’t change it. I
Congress is slow’ and ponderous, and j
that’s a good thing. No; the gov- 1
eminent is all right.
“Times are good and will be even ]
better. The thing we must bear in 1
mind is service. Service —that s the j
thing. The individual should give it j
in work. Organizations should give j
service. Service brings prosperity.” j
Roland Burke Heimessy, the editor
poet has published a handsome volume ]
of “Liberty Aflame and Other Verses.” !
The verses are exquisite and the book j
is in wide demand. It is dedicated to j
Arthur Leslie of the Mncfadden Rub- I
lications. |
Because lie has a prejudice against
taking their lives the beggar in the
Orient carefully removes the vermin i
from hi< body and places them gently !
on the ground for others to acquire. I
