The outstanding act of President
Roosevelt in recent weeks is his
efforts to take the profits out of
war, and in that way lessen the
danger cl nations, especially this one
being influenced by those who might
gain by the conflict.
I believe this action of the Presi
dent is due to his love of humanity,
first last and all the time, and not,
stated in some papers, that it Is
business move, and the saving
of human lives is only incidental
to the advantage in a business way
to the nation.
In this connection the following
copy of a telegram sent to Congress
man Carl Vinson, by the undersign
ed in April, 1917 may interest your
Milledgeville, Ga.
April 24th, 1917
Hon. Carl Vinson
Washington, D. C.
»ee you commuted your self to
conscription. Its apparent fairness
only hides its fan#;. Amend the
bill to read—A census of the indi
vidual and corporate wealth of the
people shall be made and during this
war, or at it’s end, no individuals
shall retain for their own use
dollar more than shown at it’s be
ginning. except those persons who
have been actually under fire, or
have had husbands or children
der fire, or In a service subject to
fire from the enemy. Provide penal
ties, and stop all loop-holes. Make
wealth bear it’s part or there will
i a revolution.
JAMES L. SIBLEY
Well the revolution has come, and
e are all glad it is without blood
shed, so far, thanks to President
Roosevelt.
Congressman Vinson did not try
to make this idea a part of the law
of the land. If he had tried he might
have done for the last war, what
President Roosevelt is now trying to
do for the next war, make wealth
bear it's share.
On the other hand he might have
been thrown out of congress, just
Ramsey McDonald in England
s thrown out, and almost mobbed
by his fellow country men.
But after the war. the people of
England saw the justice and good
sense shown by Ramsey McDonald,
and now, and for years, he has been
head of the British Government
Congressman Vinson might have
been thrown out but to day he
might have been President At any
rate he would have been seventeen
years ahead of President Roosevelt
l this issue.

a Word
from Henry Ford
We expect to announce our new 1935 cars, and have
them m dealers* showrooms where you may see and ex
amine them, on Saturday, December 29th. The car., are
coming off the line now and distribution will soon com-
I have never been very much in favor of the custom of
yearly models. Good motor can do not become obsolete
simply because the calendar turns a leaf. Our former
custom was to put improvements on our cars as soon as
we developed and tested them, so that there was continu
ous refinement and progress. The custom of introducing
new models annually is justified when they are really
new, and not merely equipped with new talking points
for the purposes of salesmanship.
Last year’s Ford V-8 was a good car. the best we had
built up to that time. We don’t say to any customer with
a last year’s car that his car is out of date. If it is giving
him service, and if he is not in the market for a new
car, there is no reason for him to feel that he is behind
the procession. He still drives the fundamentally latest
thing in cars. The new car has all the qualities and ad
vantages of Lst y**r’s car, with something added.
The improvements we offer are not experimental in any
sense; they were thoroughly tried cut under every con
ceivable circumstance before we finally adopted them.
That, in fact, is our job all the year ’round—refining,
improving, making new balance of qualities, always ad
hering closely to our principle of continuous growth in die
basic purpose of the Ford car.
The 1935 V-8 engine is practically the same engine we
built in 1934, because we have not learned how to build
a better one. It has, however, some refinements, amongst
which are the copper-lead connecting rod bearings, and
the new type of crankcase ventilation.
Most of the improvements concern the riding qualities
of the car. There is now more comfort both in driving
the car and riding in it—and it was always a very com
fortable car to drive. This year we have paid particular
attention to the comfort of the hack seat rider. The rear
seat is now forward of the rear axle, so that all passengers
ride between the axles. With the new flexible springs, this
gives what has been aptly described as “a front seat ride
for the back seat passengers.” Besides, it has permitted
changes in the design of the body which have resulted in
those lines of beauty so much in favor with automobile
owners today.
We have always had three fundamentals—Durability,
Economy of operation and maintenance, and Comfort.
Safety, of course, is taken for granted. The Durability is
just what it always was; no one needs to be told at this
late day that Fords are built to last. THe Economy is
even greater than before—an 8-cylinder engine with the
economy of a four. As to Comfort, however, there has
been a very considerable advance, as I think you will
agree when you have tried the car out.
We built more than 20,000,000 cars previous to the V-8.
We have built 1,300,000 V-8 cars. The V-8, we believe,
is the proper engine for the low-price car field, which is
our field.
This 1935 car will be on display December 29th, with
all details ready for your information. It is entirely prob
able that some of our prices will be lower than in 1934.
We want them lower because we expect to build a mil
lion cars and better next year, and the price must be
right. If the price is right, people will buy; men will
go back to work; a thousand related businesses will feel
the new impulse. At least we are trying to make 1935
a busier, happier and more hopeful year.
