The Ambassador to France flew to New York by trans-Atlantic Clipper Saturday in order to “get in touch” with the President after being unable ta communicate confidentialIv with his Government since June 12. He refused to discuss that his conversations with President may indicate that Mr Roosevelt has determined not to Yollow the lead of Great Britain, which withdrew recognition from the authoritarian Government of Mearshal Henri Philippe Petain and tecognized the fugitive French comfittee in London

There isn't any question as far as I know, honestly have not discussed question with the President.” “There has been speculation,” a Teporter told him, “that your report will color Mr. Roosevelt's decision on the possibility of recognizing the French committee in London, The ambassador minimized & possibility “I believe the President makes his own decisions,” he said ~ “I really came up here because we have an awfully lot to talk about and we had only scratched the sur-| face by train time last night,

Business Began After Rival

Tried to Outwit Ford In Deal.

Ry TIM TIPPETT

A nameplate-maker once tried to get the best of Henry Ford in a deal. And that's the reason Indianapolis today is the home of the plant that turng out nearly all those pretty nameplates on American automobiles. David Ross, a young Indianapolis nameplate manufacturer, walked into Henry Ford's office to solicit an order. He found Mr. Ford pacing the floor over a “fast one” that had been pulled on him that day by another nameplate-maker, “Here,” said Mr. Ford in effect, is a tough job. This fellow has 27 patents on this kind of work. If vou can make a nameplate to fit this car that doesn’t violate patents the job's yours.’ David Ross could and did. He's been making Ford since. Too, with the years, have come Chrysler, General Motors and Studebaker,

And all these plates pour out of IJ

a little plant on Lord St. Not more than 50 people work there at peak production time, The simplest nameplate takes 29 hand operations, the complex ones many more. Some are handpainted, some are hand-buffed and polished. Machines are precision built to give exacting work without fail, One machine (it costs thousands of dollars) is so accurate and precise that it can engrave Lord's Prayer on a pin head-

City Plans Appeal for U. S. Supreme Court Review Of Old Lease.
