RIFT BETWEEN FORD
AND PARTNER WIDE
Couzens Says Views on Pre
paredness "Disgust" Him;
i. Friendship Is Changed."
STRONG - LANGUAGE USED
Manager of Automobile Concern De
clares He, Is "Willing to AVorlc
AVith Mr. Ford, but Not for
Him" Career Reviewed.
DETROIT, ..Oct. 3 7. Despite assur
ances given. out her that James Couz
ens, vice-president and general man
ager of the Ford Motor Company, had
no personal feeling in resigning his
position when -he disapproved of Mr.
Ford's utterances on the subject of
preparedness and National defense, Mr.
Couaens, in elaborating his reasons,
used strong language here today. He
paid he had been "disgusted." and that
the "friendly feeling" of the past 14
years had been "changed."
"I have, disagreed with Mr. Ford's
public utterances on finances, unpre
paredness and about everything else
of late," he declared with strong em
phasis. "I cannot be carried along on
that kind of a kite.
"I was quite willing to work with Mr.
Ford, but not for him. The friendly
relations .that existed between us for so
many years 14 in fact have been
changed. We started in the automobile
business together, and it was through
my efforts that the Ford Motor Com
pany was built up around one man:
Henry Ford.
"The world is perhaps interested in
the fact that I have resigned from the
concern because the company occupies
such a unique position in the financial
world, but concerning our own personal
difficulties they ought not to be of pub.
lie interest.
Views Have Inspired "Disgust.'
"Mr. Ford's utterances on public mat
ters, especially that of preparedness,
have disgusted . me. . 1 disapproved of
them, and it was of so serious moment
to me that I at last decided to break
relations with him. ' I told him bo and
we had it out." . ..
Mr. Couzens denied the many rumors
that Mr. Ford's views and expressions
on the European war had hurt business
in the least.
Mr. Couzens' connection , with the
Ford concern has been second only to
that of Mr. Ford himself, and his per
sonality is an interesting one. He was
getting only $1800 a year as a. clerk
in 1903 when the Ford Company made
its small beginning, yet in 1914 his
cash dividends totalled $5,000,000 and
stock dividends $5,200,000. an amount
second only to the dividend of Mr
Ford himself, which was $29,000,000.
A "V' XTn 1 ...... 1 - I .. L L
- . iuaii.uui.iuii, n, tin i ucaici, nuvi
was Henry Ford's original partner, was
Air. Couzens' employer, and it was
through him that Mr. Couzens had the
opportunity to buy Ford stock.
He had saved $400 out of his salary
and Mr. Malcomson gave him a J500
bonus. He borrowed $100 from a sister
to make an even $1000 and bought his
first block of stock in the new and
struggling company. He gave also a
note for $1500 to make up his initial
investment of $2500, the smallest, by
the. way, of any of the present Ford
stockholders.
Bulnfi Talent Appeared at Once.
The former J1800 clerk waa made sec
retary and business manager of the
company, of which Henry Ford was
vice-president and general manager. At
once he began to display that talent
for business detail tHat aided so re
markably in making the enterprise a
success.
"1" remember riding up the street with
Henry Ford in that car of his." said
Mr. Couzens later, in telling of those
times, "and talking over what salaries
we were to ask for. We decided that
he should get $3000 a year and I $2500.
T started out with a one-armed stenog
rapher, and finally got a bookkeeper. I
wrote the first annual statement out in
long hand with an indelible pencil."
The company under the joint man-
s cement of Ford and Couzens was an)
Immediate success and paid a 2 per
cent dividend when five months old a
10 per cent dividend when six months
nUl and when it was nine months old
a 68 per cent dividend.
It was at Mr, Couzens' suggestion
that Henry Ford bought out Malcolm
son's stock in 190b for S175.000 because
of differences between the two original
partners. Ford and Couzons indorsed
each other's notes for the amount,
which was paid when due. It was this
purchase of stock that gave Mr. Ford
his first control of the company.

MORE MEN PUT TO WORK
Volume Unequaled Since 1007,
While Steamship Companies Are
Seeking Craft to Handle
Enormons Export Trade.
NEW YORK, Oct. 21. A general. re
vival of freight traffic,- unequaled since
1907, was reported today ' by almost
every railroad entering New York TTity
or with terminals on the New Jersey
shore across the Hudson River,
At the office of the Brie Railroad it
was said that tonnage figures far last
month, available today, showed that
the business done in September, 1915,
was the greatest ever recorded on the
books of the company during the oper
ation of the road.
Tonnage on the Baltimore & Ohio of
shipments to New York and for export
has increased 40 per cent, it was said,
within the past 90 days.
The New Haven Railroad is moving
more freight today, it waa said, than
It has moved for years before. The
New York Central linee report that
business is so good that hundreds of
extra men have been added to handle
the traffic, and deliveries of 5000 to
000 cars recently ordered are being
hurried to care for the traffic.
Previous High Rerord Etanaled.
On the Central Railroads of New
Jersey the volume is equal, it is said,
to the previous high record of the com
pany. The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
declined to state the volume of busi
ness being done over its lines, but in
railroad circles it was reported that
seldom in the road's history had it
been equaled before.
Steamship, companies have pressed
into servlee every possible craft to
carry the enormous volume of exports
acres the Atlantic and are working
the vessels at top speed. A great many
trans-Atlantic passenger liners have
been taken off. but their places have
been filled-as far as possible by char
tering other vessels, from coastwise
craft to tramp steamers and even sail
ing ships. It is no uncommon thing
for a trans-Atlantic liner to be turned
back to England within 4g hoars after
arrival.
Merchandise exports from this post
last month, according to figures made
public today, broke all previous rec
ords. Their value was 163.00,000. In
September, 1914. exports from this port
were a lit:le under J62.000.000.
Shipping Situation Improving.
Most of the big shipments coming to
New York are for export, it is said,
and the shortage of ships has been al
most acute, though conditions today
are reported as better than a month
ago.
Knormoua shipments of steel and
grain have poured into New oYrk over
the New York Central lines within the
past fortnight. Along the New Haven,
especially at Bridgeport, Hartford, New
Haven and other manufacturing cen
ters, the volumne of shipments most
ly munitions is in quantities without
precedent. Many solid trainloads of
munitions roll over this line to New
York City every day, an official of tho
road said, and men in the traffic de
partment are working day and night
to move them promptly. Even heavier
shipments of munitions, boots, shoes,
woolens and other commodities appear
in prospect, it Is said, as soon as fac
tories built and building reach their
maximum capacity. Howard Elliott,
chairman of the road, has issued an
appeal to shippers to co-operate with
the road in helping to move shipmenw
propmtly.
Every road entering New York has
added many extra men to its payroll.
WAR HURTS SHOE TRADE

Civilian Business Ixst.
CHICAGO. Oct. 21. Notwithstanding
enormous war orders received here
for shoee and boots, the European con
flict has greatly injured the foreign
shoe trade of the United States, ac
cording to members of the Western
Association of Bhoe Wholesalers, who
are holding their annual convention
here.
"Bhoe dealers and manufacturers of
the United States," said S. W. Campbell,
of Chicago, secretary of the association,
"are losing millions of dollars owing
to the war, and this notwithstanding the
millions of dollars being sent here for
war orders, because our trade with the
civilians of Europe each year Is many
times that we are now receiving for
war shoes and boots."

WILSON, IN THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION. POINTS TO
PEACE AND ABUNDANT PROSPERITY IN UNITED STATES.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 21. President Wilson today, in a proclamation
designating Thursday, November 2 6, as Thanksgiving day, called at
tention to the fact that the United States has been at peace while
most of Europe has been at war, and to abundant crops, ample financial
resources and prosperity. The proclamation says:
"It has long been the honored custom of our people to turn in
the fruitful Autumn of the year in praise and thanksgiving to Al
mighty God for his many blessings and mercies to us" as a Nation.
The year that is now drawing to a close since we last observed our
day of National thanksgiving has been, while a year of discipline be
cause of the mighty forces ef war and of changes which have dis
turbed the world, also a year of special blessing for us. .
"Another year of peace has been vouchsafed us; another year in
which not only to take thought of our duty to ourselves and to man- .
kind, but also to adjust ourselves to the many responsibilities
thrust upon us by a war which has involved almost the whole of
Europe. ..
"We have been able to assert our rights and the rights of man
kind without breach of friendship with the great nations with whom
we have had to deal.- and while we have asserted rights, we have been
able also to perform duties and exercise -privileges of sjiccor and .
helpfulness which should serve to demonstrate our desire to make the
offices of friendship the means of truly disinterested and unselfish
service.
"Our ability to serve all who could avail themselves of our serv
ices in the midst ef a crisis, has been increased by a gracious Provi
dence, by more and more. abundant crops; our ample financial re
sources have enabled us to steady the markets of the world and
facilitate necessary movement ef commerce which the war might oth
erwise have rendered impossible; and our people have come more and
more to a sober realisation of the part they have been called upon to
play in a time when all the world is shaken by unparalleled dis
tresses and disasters.
"The extraordinary circumstances of sueh a time have done much
to quicken our National consciousness and deepen and confirm eur con
fidence In the prinelples o( peace snd. freedom by which we have al
ways sought to be guided. v
"Out of darkness and perplexities have come firmer counsels of
policy and clearer perceptions ef the essential welfare ef the Na
tion. We have prospered while ether people were at war. but our
prosperity has been vouchsafed us, we believe, only that we might
the better perform" the functions which war rendered it Impossible
for them to perform. '
"New. therefore. I. Woedrow Wilson. President of the United States
ef America, do hereby designate Thursday, the twenty-fifth of Novem
ber next, as a day of Thanksgiving and prayer, and Invite the people
throughout the land to cease, from their wonted occupations and in
their several homes and places of worship render thanks to Al
mighty God."
Government, However, Introduces
Through His Testimony What It
Regards as Most Im
portant Evidence.
NEW YORK. Oct. 21. Although
Charles S. Mellen, cx-presldent of the
New York, New Haven & Hartford
Railroad Company, was characterised
by Frank L. Swaker, the Federal, at
torney. as a "frankly hostile witness"
In the course of the continuation of
his testimony today at the -trial of the
11 New Haven directors under the Bher
man law, the attorney succeeded, never-
tneless. In introducing evidence against
the defendants contained in the Gov
ernment's case. '
Mr. Mellen frankly conceded that the
early competition between the New
Haven road and the Kew York & aew
England, whleh It subsequently ab
sorbed, was of the cutthroat variety
He testified that it was a state of rival
ry between the Buston & Maine and the
New Haven that led up to the agree
ment by which the two roads' agreed
to keep out of each other s territory.
' Roads Kept Oat -of New 'York.
He Identified minutes of the board of
directors' meeting of the New Haven
whereby steps were taken to enter into
agrement with the New York Central
to keep other roads from entering New
York City. He told how the New Haven
had secured control of two of the New
York & New England's connections
with New York and cut. them oit.
With evident relish, he related the
story of having, as manager of the New
England, brought the New Haven to its
knees by threatening a. rate cut and of
making "such a nuisance" of himself
that he was virtually bought off by the
New Haven with an offer of the vice
presidency of the road, which he ac
cepted. Th.ls was In 1192.
Taft May Be Witness.
The possibility that ex-President
Taft would be called by the Govern
ment was suggested to newspaper men
today 'in a note passed over to their
table by one of the defendants coun
sel. Attorney R. 1 Batts. for the Gov
ernment. said, however, that there was
no intention or doing so at the present
time.
The suggestion was that Mr. Taft
would be needed to tell of conferences
between him and Lewis Cass Ledyard,
one or the defendants, over the acqui
sition of Boston Ac Maine stock by the
New Haven and in the matter of the
limitation of the inquiry into New
Haven affairs begun in the latter part
of Mr. Taft s Administration. The Gov
ernment alleges that Mr. Ledyard used
his influence with the Administration
to confine the inquiry to the relations
of the New Haven with the Grand
Trunk Railway, of Canada.

M. Betts receiver of the Hamilton Trust
Company, and the Cornucopia Mines
Company, and in its various phases
went through every court since pro
ceedings were started in October, 1S12,
in the Federal Court In Portland. The
fight waa carried through four cases in
the Portland Federal Court, three in
the Court of Appeals at Ban Francisco,
one in the Judicial Court In Washing
ton, and finally tho Supreme. Court
there.
The suit was' for injuries sustained
by . John Bisher, Jr.. of Halway, a
graduate of Baker High School and now
a student at the University of Oregon
at Eugene. During a vacation he
worked for the mining company and
was repairing the insulation on the
high-tension wire of the mine near
Cornucopia when the power was turned
on and 2400 volts passed through him.
As a result his right arm was ampu

the left hand destroyed. Young Bisher
will use the funds in an effort to edu
cate himself so that he will not need
his hands to make a livelihood.
