Gives Warning That Severe
Pruritics Will Ba Enforced.
In The Senaie
And in The Shop.
Two prominent American citiz-
ens were heard from the other
day.
One stood on the floor of the
United States Senate and heaped
partisan ridicule ana political in-
vec'ive upon Henry Ford, manu-
fac'.rr r ar.d noted advocate of
the five dollar a day for laborers.
Senator Lawrence Y. Sherman
of Illinois, who always has placed
party above patriotism and pro-
gress halted the already overbur-
dened wheels of progress at thf
eleventh hour of legislation, to
tell a handful of politicians what
he thought of Henry Ford.
He wasted two golden hours of
sen atorial time on sarcasm when
it is action the nation asks of its
senate.
On the other hand that same
day Henry Ford did this:
I am going to provide jobs 4000
disabled soldier," Ford announced
and without discharging any of
the workers now employed.
These disabled soldiers will be
trained to earn the same wages
other employes receive No dis
ability other than the loss of both
arms will bar a returned soldier.
And Henry Ford started hiring
disabled veterans that day!
while the country is begging con-
gress for reconstruction prosper-
ity legislation Lawrence Sherman
give us hot air [and peanut pol-
itics.
While the nation vainly waits
for congress to help solve the un
employment problem facing so
many big employers are shutting
down because they won't pay
high prices and high wages,
Henry Ford opens his shop, at
good wages to 4,000 soldiers and
disabled heroes, at that!
Honestly, folks, we belive this
land of ours is so great and pros-
perous because there are so
many Henry Ford's and so few
Lawrence Sherman's.
Remember we guar

Food control In America held ihe
price of breadstulTs steady, prevented
vicious speculation and extortion and
preserved tranquillity at home.
In no other nation is there so willing
a sense of voluntary self-sacrlfic as
In America—that was liliown la the
abstinence from wheat.
Find more wheat. It cume; more
pork, it came; save sugiir, it was done.
So Americans answered the challenge
of German starvation.
Good will rules the new world as
fear governed the old world. Through
sharing food America helps make the
whole world kin.
