Fay ha* been custodian of the tomb for eleven year* and a collector of Lincoln material for sixty year*. BY HERBERT WELLS FAY (Copyright. 1932. bv United Press) SPRINGFIELD, HI., Feb. 12. Abraham Lincoln, if he should return to the earth today and be asked the primary reason for his nation’s present difficulties, would sum the cause up in one word: “Fear." The Great Emancipator’s speeches, letters, and actions, point quite clearly to the position he would take regarding the present depression. I imagine I hear him saying: “My countrymen, though you seem to have great regard for me—more than you had when I was living among you—you are forgetting the principles under which our country prospered.” Agriculture Slighted What were those principles? Lincoln would explain that when the nation was young, our main occupation was agriculture. He would add that agriculture then was and still remains the foundation of industry. “The men on the land raised the necessities of lif' and in good times or bad they were able to live,” he would say. Lincoln probably would point out what he encountered in office: “During the war, gold went to a premium that took it out of circulation and financiers were puzzled.” Lincoln then had no friend he could send out to get a few millions, but as a last resort he issued “greenbacks.” Financiers growled, but he sent the printing presses to going. Greenbacks became a medium of exchange among the people from coast to coast and helped to save the credit of the nation. Too Many “Shaking Rope” But Lincoln would not overlook one economic question. He’d ask: “How can my people have a depression in time of plenty?” If asked for a simple formula to overcome depression, he’d say: “We won the war by everybody acting shoulder to shoulder and doing his duty.” He might point a moral as he did when a delegation of New Englanders went to Washington to tell him how to run the government. He heard them through, calmly admitted that all they had to say might be true, but added: “Gentlemen, suppose a man was walking over Niagara Falls on a tight rope and had all your valuables in a sack on his shoulders and he was using all the energy at his command to steady himself—you would not shake the rope, would you?” If Lincoln were here today, he probably would say, “there are too many persons shaking the rope.” Aged Man Accusd 9*f Timet Special COLUMBUS, Ind., Feb. 12.—Drury Burton, €O, is in jail here charged with attacking an 18-year-old girl who lives near here. ■ You’ll Want to Meet “CONNIE” ■ SEE Q PAGE O

At least, 3,200 of these companies depend entirely on Ford for business.

Other leaders In the automotive industry, their own 1932 models already on the market, anticipate Ford’s entrance into the field as a boom to industry. Alvan MacAuley, president of the Packard Motor Car Company, said with Ford cars for sale there will be no reason for further delay of sales in the low-priced field. “Prospective buyers have been waiting to see the Ford models,”

MacAuley pointed out. “With Ford cars on the market eally in March,
