A ROOK A DAY

BY BRUCE CATTON

IN “The Tragedy of Henry Ford,” Jonathan Norton Leonard undertakes to debunk the world’s most famous industrialist. Whether he succeeds is something each reader must decide for himself. Certainly the book is a sharply critical piece of work. Ford, says this writer, is an extremely limited man who has had just one good idea—the idea that there is a tremendous market for automobiles if only they are priced cheaply enough. He got this idea back at the dawn of the present century, and made it his guiding star. It made the Ford Motor Cos. the greatest firm of its kind on earth and made Ford the world’s richest man. But Ford himself, the writer insists, contributed that idea and nothing more. Ford, he says, is not a mechanic, not a financial genius, not a clearthinking economist, not a skilled industrialist. During the period of his rise, he says, he leaned on men like Couzens and the Dodge brothers; when they left him his troubles began and today Mr. Leonard calls him just another automobile manufacturer. Leonard gives plenty of space to such unfortunate episodes in Ford’s life as the peace ship, the Jewbaiting campaign and the Chicago Tribune libel suit. He is also violently critical of working conditions at the Ford plant, and he has bitter things to say about Ford's “paternalism” toward his workers. You may find the book unfair, in spots, but you’ll not find it uninteresting anywhere. It is published by Putnam, and sells for $3

GLASS CHARGES PLOT TO BEAT BANKING BILL 'Night School’ Organized to Tell Bankers What to Testify, He Says, BY LYLE C. WILSON Inited Pres* Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON. March 31.—Senator Carter Glass (Dem., Va.), is vowing vengeance on bankers accused of conspiring to discredit his bank regulations bill. He says he knows their names, but will not

make them public now. The diminutive, belligerent Virginian is in the midst of a fight similar to that of eighteen years ago when he piloted the Wilson ad min i stration federal reserve act through the house. “Two men in Wash ington organized the op-

Glass

position to the bill and sent telegrams out inviting people to appear, and then organized a night school to tutor them in what they should say," Glass said. Whatever may have been the source of opposition to he senator’s bill, It was effective. Bankers big and little appeared before the committee to complain that the bill was deflationary, unwise and too drastic. There was much similarity between the statements of the various witnesses. That aroused Glass’ suspicions. “Why it’s an absurdity,” he said, “that man after man should come here and say the same darned thing one after another. “One witness told me that when he arrived here from New York he was called on the telephone, told to assail every provision of the bill, and was told where he could come for more information. “If all the men went to the same night school teachers, it is no wonder they all made the same mistake.” A subcommittee of the banking and currency committee is scheduled now to resume consideration of the bill in light of objections and amendments proposed by Eugene Meyer, governor of the federal reserve board, and other witnesses. Chairman Norbeck said that pending committee action on the Glass bill, no move could be made to investigate bull and bear stock market operations.
