HENRY FORD'S public aimouneemcnt that ho will under no cir cumstances bo a candidate against President Coolidge, and will support the President if he is nominated, might be expected, 'under normal circumstances, to effectively terminate the Ford Loom. But the conditions surrounding Mr. Ford's candidacy arc not nor mal and probably nothing short of a burial certificate will end it. For the enthusiasm for Mr. Ford is not based upon Ford, the man, but Ford the Myth, and as long as dinary hysteria to place the world's will continue. If a few of the Ford fanatics they feel, this pronouncement 'by mistake. Hut they refuse to think at all.

In a lucid interval perhaps some porters might sec somo light if they would ask themselves to explain Mr. Ford's endorsement of President Coolidgc.

But essentially ho is not. lie is politically a conservative, he believes in leaving politics to politicians who aro siufe and sane. His real interests and abilities lie in directions absolutely non-political. Ford, the Miracle -Mun, isn't Miracle Man, let us repeat, is a myth.
