To Union Defenders Editor Herald: I wish to answer article by Union No. 653 in your issue of February 1. In my article I stated that unionism was founded on fact. In union there is strength, but strength can become a menace men-ace if it gets in the wrong hands. I have the greatest respect for Mr. Green and his opposite for Mr. Lewis and his plan for one great union. I think he aspires to become another Mussolini or Hitler. Non-union labor knows full well what organized labor is organized for. They believe in Mr. Gompers and his successor, "Lewisism" the better it will be for all concerned. Union labor has stood in the way of recovery more than any other one thing. They refused to take their share of deflation. In these United States there is about twenty million mil-lion men from 21 to 50 years old. About two million belong to organized labor. These few demand de-mand closed shops. This demand has caused many strikes. This is what I called "tomfoolery and dog in the manger." They won't work themselves or let anyone else; or at least Mr. Lewis won't. As for best growers, they haven't posted any pickets as yet. Higher wages only increase cost of living. Regular employment is what counts. Too high a wage can be just as bad as too low. This principle applies to all classes of employment. JEO, T. PEAY rx -X,' ' JWZ ' v ' -ffefc -T . ' 'iff ' . .v.-v "..v.-. -v. v." .

Editor Herald: This judicial crisis is the fruits of delay and abuse of power-delay power-delay by congress and usurpation by the courts. The whole course of judicial decisions for generations gener-ations shows a tendency to ignore the spirit of the constitution; to bend the letter thereof to the benefit of the few. especially the exploiters of humanity. Property rights have been made to take precedence over human right The preamble of our constitution has been persistently ignored. Common Com-mon sense as contrasted with professional or biased sense, would dictate that the whole constitution should be in'.erpreted to "achieve justice, insure domes-lie domes-lie tranquility, promote the rreneral welfare, and secure blessings bless-ings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity." The lawyers themselves are to blame for this sorry mess. Their own doctrine in theory is that the doubt shall always be resolved in favor of a statute, yet mere majorities of the supreme court have vetoed the acts of congressj one man's vo'e nullifying all that the president and congress may have done. If congress had long ago made it necessary for a full court to declare a law unconstitutional this crisis would not have arisen. But the technic of lawyers is to make litigation interminable. We have been ruled (or more properly misruled) by lawyers, and it is high time the laymen's commonsense was substituted sub-stituted for the lawyers' technical techni-cal methods and procrastination. And Roosevelt's move is in the right direction, even though some portions of it may srrrn drastic Our constitution was mado as a bulwark against governmental usurpations likely to harm the people: hence the narrow interpretations inter-pretations which prevent the government doing things to bene fit the people does violence to i the whole scheme of the consti tution.

From 9:15 in the morning until 3:15 in the afternoon they enjoyed a program of demonstrations and exhibitions from the departments, including one-act plays, band and orchestra numbers, debates, athletic stunts, demonstration dancing, a devotional devo-tional and a luncheon served to 250. Principal Karl Banks of the senior high school and Principal B. M. Jolley of the Junior high school gave interesting talks before be-fore a joint program of the two groups. Principal Banks presented present-ed some of the problems confronting confront-ing school and society, such as meeting the condition of unemployment unem-ployment by making opportunities opportuni-ties for work and fitting people for it; meeting the desire for "canned" entertainment by encouraging en-couraging the making of hobbies, by home study and by creative recreation; meeting the general laxity in law enforcement by guidance both in and out of school in ideals of citizenship. Principal Jolley showed the necessity of cooperation between parents and the school in making successful student records. He presented figures showing that in the Lincoln school the chief cause of student failure is irregular attendance. The day's program ended with the evening presentation of "Way Out West,'' an operetta from the Junior high school under the direction di-rection of W. M. Vernon. Perhaps the outstanding quality of this feature was the unusually gooo. acting of the entertainers although the singing was commendable and, in the case of young 31don Harding, excellent. Chairmen of the day. Raymond Partridge of the Senior high school and C. H. Farnworth Jr. of the Junior high school, as well as the two faculties, are to be complimented for the well planned and executed day's program.

The 25,ooo,cxxth Ford car rolled off the Ford Rouge Plant production pro-duction line on January 18, 1937. 25 million cars since 1903 . . . more than one-third of all the cars ever built . . . enough cars to transport the entire population of the United States. The figures represent a remarkable contribution to the social welfare, the industrial stability and the general progress of our country. People respect Ford efficiency. They know Ford uses fine materials, the best workmanship at good wages, the most ' exact precision measurements. They -know these things are passed along to purchasers in the form of extra value. Naturally, they like to do business with such a company. That's why it has been required to produce 25 million cars. Naturally, too, they expect more of a Ford car, more this year than last year more each year than the year before. They have every right to. The experience gained in building 25,000,000 cars enables Ford to produce today a really superb motor car at a really low price with the beauty, comfort, safety and performance of much more expensive cars. The 1937 Ford V- 8 combines advanced design, all-steel construction, extra body room, and brilliant brakes with a choice of two V-type 8-cylinder engines the most modern type of power-plant. The 85-horsepower engine provides top performance with unusually good economy for its high power. The 60-horsepower engine gives good performance with the greatest gasoline mileage ever built into a Ford car at the lowest Ford prices in years. People expect more of a Ford car because it's a Ford and they get more, for the same reason. It is undeniably The Quality Car in the Low-price Field. FORD MOTOR COMPANY -See It In Oar Showroom!
