THE fact that Henry lord has ber-onio a eandiuate tor the United States senate, from Jliehitran at President WilsonV suggestion, lias aroused reat resentment among the nolitieians of lioth parties. The president lias smashed many lime honored customs and shown that he is not at nil hound hv established formula. His various actions have caused much consternation among the worshipers of precedent nnd he is persona non grata among the. profes sional politicians, largely because he appeals directly to the people. Henry I'oi'd is a republican be says because he was born that way. JJut in all essentials, he is a fundamental democrat because lie believes in sociaj justice and is not bound in auv way by partv lies and partisan prejudices, He has had the courage of his convictions and created wide spread indignation among the captains of industry because he believed in the wellare ol his workers and m paying living wages. J Us efforts caused him to be dubbed a freak, but his example has reacted upon all industry to Ilie beneht ol: the toilers. As a result, better hours and better wages prevail in big plants and more attention is paid to the conditions surrounding the employe and it has paid in increased efficiency. The incident of the Ford peace slu'p is being revamped by the jmrtisau press to deride and ridicule Ford's candi dacy and prove the assertion that while Ford is a master mind of manufacture and a mechanical genius, he is theo retical and, impractical and therefore unsafe. Yet the peace ship Mas promulgated at a time when the real purpose of (Jerniany was not comprehended in America and incom prehensible to th(! average American, who fondly believed the days of medieval barbarism forever outgrown. Few then realized tho menace to democracy and civilization of the Hun, and the peace ship was a sincere though mis guided effort to end the heedless bloodshed and devasta tion. Ford spent his own money in a worthy cause. His sincerity is unquestioned and of how many politicians can the same be said i It is said that Ford knows little of politics. Perhaps it is true. Jnit the average American knows and cares but little of politics, and the average senator knows and cares too much about politics. As senator, Ford would bring a trained, ef ficient mind to bear upon the practical altairs of government a mind accustomed to grappling with big aliairs m a big way and hence nu'glit be lonesome among the corporation lawyers and peanut politicians numerous in its membership. Ford has made the automobile a possibility for the man of small means and added much to the business efficiency of the world as well as helped materialy better the condi tion of the toiler. He has placed his mammoth plant at the services of the government and is doing as much or more t nan any individual to help win the war. He is building air planes, submarine chasers and battle tanks and furnishing tractors in wholesale quantities to the allied governments to help solve the food problem. Henry Ford has revolutionized agriculture in England and France and is enabling those countries, despite the shortage of labor, to solve the food problem. "Catipillai's of Plenty" is the nickname the French have applied to his tractors and thev ant just il ving the title. There remained in British agriculture in 1917, only 177,000 men of military age. The number of women work ers had increased hv 1 10,000, but few women could plow- ami more land must be plowed than ever before if the sub marine was to be del led. Henry rord said 'use tractors. offering all the patents and specifications of his own free as a starter. When it was found England could not spare the labor for manufacture, Ford built them himself. .De livery began in January, If) 18, and -1,000 were sent over by spring along wilh 1 1,000 of other makes and even the titled women of England are plowing. England and A Vales have thereby added H,r00,000 acres and (Scotland and Ireland l.oOO.OOO acres in crops. AVhen the first shipment of tractors was sent England, !,,")( It) were sent France, and otheis have gone since. There was no cargo space available, and they were lashed to the decks of the government naval transports. Schools were established and experts demonstrated their use. Crippled French veterans man the "Tractor batteries" and plow the fields for the peasants, clear to "No Man's Land." The .Michigan democrats nominted Henry Ford for senator. The republican politicians oppose him, but at the primaries, the people who voted for him for president when he was not a candidate, will see that he is nominated and elected, because they have belief in his sincerity and patriotism and care nothing about his politics. He may not make a brilliant statesman but he will compare fa vorably with the oratorical asses who have represented Michigan in the senate.
