HENRY FORD'S PEACE WORK.
Washington, I). C., Dec. 31.?In ai
article under date of December 25, Mi
George. E. Miller, Washington cor re
spondent of the Detroit News, call
attention to the deliberate, concertei
effort upon the part of many bij
newspapers of the country to cas
odium upon the trip of Henry Ford t<
Europe in an effort for peace.
The Detroit News is one of the fev
big papers in the United States tha
have shown a spirit of fairness in thi
matter. There is missing from th?
News the spirit of malicious misreo
resentation, coloring and deliberat<
falsehood so much in evidence in cer
tain New York papers and in papers
of smaller cities that ape the bij
city's news methods?all apparentlj
set upon a determined effort to plung<
the United States into the great war
and to discredit any effort that mighl
shorten the conflict. Mr. Miller's
story tells some of the motives behinc
the attacks on Mr. Ford.
The article says: A persistent om
could say wilful misconception anc
misstatement of Henry Ford's peace
expedition is carried in the press of
tiie east and also brought across the
ocean in the British censored cables
Ford has deserted and the expedition
is a failure, is the statement, accompanied
with editorial comment in
which Mr. Ford is patronizingly characterized
as a generous soul but ignorant.
The kindest thing some of
these publications find to say about
him is that he is a rainbow chaser
with a good purpose and a poor plan
for its accomplishment.
The New York papers almost without
exception misrepresented the character
of the Ford enterprise from the
first. For this Mr. Ford was himself
to blame to some extent as he failed
to issue a comprehensive statement
of his plan in the beginning. News
papers disposed to he hostile towards
any step to end the war took advantage
of this to ridicule the expedition
and their example has been very
largely followed on both sides of the
ocean. The papers controlled by the
steel and munition interests have been
the most persistent in declining to
print the facts about the nature of
Mr. Ford's project.
Yet it would not have been difficult
for them to ascertain that this biff
body of people carried abroad in the
Oscar 11 was not the real peace commission
to carry out Mr. Ford's purpose.
Though stated over and over
avrain that the ship was chartered to
attract the attention of the world to
the peace plan, and for no other purpose,
this fact has been sturiously ignored.
And because the boys did not
jump out of the trenches the moment
the ship arrived in European waters,
the whole Ford enterprise was and is
denounced as a farcical failure. That
the Oscar II was the advertisement
of what is to follow has never been

stated in the eastern papers. That
there is to be a commission of respon(i
sible men to undertake the peace suggestions
after the Oscar II passengers
- have returned to the United States
s has been carefully omitted from the
1 papers which exhibit such apparent
? fear that Ford may bring about peace,
t Of course the Ford enterprise may
3 be a failure. Of that Mr. Ford freely
acknowledged cognizance before he
v sailed from New York. But it is not
t fair nor just nor honest to denounce it
1 as a failure before it has failed, and it
hardly can fail until the commission
- which is to operate has tried. It is
2 Mr. Ford's purpose to have this com
mission sit for months and even years
3 if that be necessary. It is to be a
r body that will never cease to try for
r peace until the peace is secured. This
; was stated specifically to the eastern
, papers but is ignored by them in their
t attempts to rush the announcement
? of Ford's failure to the world.
' Again much is made of the asserA
.* il_l T7? J 1- ? ' ? '
nun >.iiav roru nas ananuonea tne
' peace expedition. Yet the eastern
' press was informed repeatedly that he
' did not know whether he would go to
Europe in the first place nor whether
he would remain long if he did go.
There was doubt in Mr. Ford's mind as
1 to whether he would be of any service
in Europe.
He did not believe that his personal
presence would be of aid. He finally
, was persuaded to go, but if he is returning
now his friends who have understood
his views will not interpret
that for an admission by him that h;s
peace plan is a failure. On the contrary
they will understand that he can
do more on this side the ocean than on
that.
The people of the world will gei
their best opportunity to judge of the
caliber of the Ford enterprise when
they learn the personnel of the real
peace commission. That has not been
announced and cannot be until the
crowd from the Oscar II has made the
rounds of the neutral countries. When
the expedition finally lands at The ,
Hague the composition of the com- I
mission will bo determined. After j
that, perhaps long after that, will j
come the time to judge as to whether ]
Mr. Ford has failed.
A little candle is as easily blown out
as a little salary is blown in.

THE SMALL FACTORY.
The Wilmington Star elaborates Am
[a subject of frequent exploitation in
The Observer?the small factories in
Philadelphia and the superior advantages
Charlotte offers in the way
of electric power and labor over
Philadelphia for their establishment
and operation. Incidentally, The Star
tells from personal knowledge how
one of the large run factories in
the United States pot its start in a
cow stable when the cow was driven
out by the enforcement of the sanitary
laws. The rug manufacturer
told the present editor of The Star
that the family hated to give up
"Bossy," but she had to be sent away
to the rural districts. Meanwhile, he
had a couple of rug looms in the
garret and possibly one in the kitchen
and the children considered it play
to operate the looms and make rugs.
One firm took the rugs as fast as
they were made and wanted whole
carloads of them if it could get them.
As the industry was profitable, the

rug factory, and neighboring hoys
and girls were employed to run the
looms. The business outgrew the
stable and in turn outgrew large brick
factories built for it at different times,
so that now it covers several blocks
and is the center of a suburban town
built up around it and because of it.
The Star states the case truthfully
when it says that in Philadelphia, U|.
town, down town, and in and around
town, there are small manufacturing
industries. They can be found in the

many have become adepts at textile p

for the development of the
