PEARRORX, Mich. June 12.
Henry Ford, pioneer of muss pro-
duction, will enter the 35th year of
his industrial history next Wednesday
a year that may decide the question
of mass unionization of some 120,000
Ford workers.
Opposing forces are the Ford Motor
company, wholly owned by the Ford
family, and the committee for indus
trial organization, led by John L.
Lewis. The American Federation of
Labor, at odds with the CIO over
policies, may take a hand.
Ford started hia company June 10.
1W3, with assets of $25,000 and his
own mechanical genius. Company
estimates now place its value at ap
proximately $700,000,000, half cash.
It owns the world's biggest industrial

C4) Alarmed by the absence of any
overtures for ransom, Long Island
police expressed fear tonight that the
missing Mrs, Alice McPonell Parsons
had been slain by her abductors.
Inspector Francis X. McGnrvey of
the state troopers ordered a thorough
search of the wooded areas surround
ing the farm from which the wife of a
socially -registered poultry breeder
disappeared Weduesday noon.
Scouts to Help
Suffolk county authorities, chafing
under the passage of "2 hours with
out any further word from the writer
of a ?2C,000 ransom note found at
the scene, asked scoutmaster Allen
Land to muster hia troop of 35 boy
scouts tomorrow to aid in the search.
Rumors wptc current that a $50.-
000 ransom demand bad been madi
by telephone late today, that Kichnrd
fton Pratt, wealthy relative of Mrs.
Parsons, had received threat notes,
and that the authors of the ransom
note had been contacted, but all the
reports were officially denied or re
mained unconfirmed.
Lacking any tangible clues, investi
gators turned their attention to a 30-year-old
naturalized Russian woman
who had lived on the Parsons' squab
farm with her 11-year-old son since
1031.
She was Mrs. Anna Kurpinooff,
who adopted the name Parsons when
she been me a citizen and whose status
in the household has been various.
described as companion anJ rervant.
Denies Report
Asst. District Attorney Harry Brim-
ner denied a published report that
he said Mrs, Parsons and Mrs. Kupri
anoff had drawn up reciprocal wills.
"There were no reciprocal wills be
tween the two women,'' he said, "and
as far as 1 know, Mrs. Kuprianoff
has never drawn up a will. As f;ir as
I know she has no property that
could be used as the basis for such
s reciprocal agreement."
Federal agents questioned her and
her third husband, Alex, for several
hours last night in the Ray Phre
barracks of the stitc police. Neither
was detained.

gon grangers returned to their homes
today nfter participating in one of the
largest state conventions ever held and
with instructions to state officers to:
work for assignment of the 103S na
tional grnnge convention to Oregon.
The filth session was brought to a
close with an nddress by Albert S.
floss, fnrmer state master of the
Washington grange and now an execu
tive of the federal land bank.
Goss, although representing one of
the nation's largest lending agencies,
advibed farmers not to borrow money
unless they were in desperate need of
it.
Commenting on the criticism of the
land bank by grangers for its an
nouncement that the bysteno would dis
continue loans in Oregon if the legis
lature passed a hill prohibiting defi
ciency adjustments, (Joss said the
judgements were abused to a lament
able extent and urged grangers to seek
remedial legislation.
The convention passed a resolution
further endorsing the work of Rep.
Pierce and lauding him for his fight
"in making congress bring the benefits
of Ronneville power to the common
people."
The grange supported the Pierce
bill, calling for civilian administration
of power nnd a postage stamp power
rate, earlier in the week.
