Job for Every Man
Cure for Unrest,
Ford Declares
Peace and Prosperity Cannot
Be Gained Through Money,
Auto Manufacturer Tells
Delegation From League.
Detroit, Jan. i!.—(By A. P.)—Henry
Ford believes that the "one sure cure"
for world unrest is “to create every
able-bodied man in the world a job of
some sort,” the manufacturer told a
delegation representing the interna
tional labor office of tht league of na
tions. whose members held a long
conference with him at his Dearborn
offices.
The delegation, which came to this
country recently to obtain Ideas that'
might he introduced in other countries
for benefit of workers, is headed by
Albert Thomas of France, director of;
the International labor office.
During the Interview, M. Thomas
deplored the present unstable condi
tions In many parts of Kurope and
suggested that equalization of ex
change rates might have beneficial
result*.
Mr. Ford replied that in his opinion
the question of bringing the world
back to peace atid prosperity could
rot he solved through money, declar
ing his belief that the solution rested
in expansion of Industry, improve
ment of agricultural methods and edu
cation of the workers of the world.
Mr. Ford told his visitors that "all
the money In the world could be
dumped into the sea and as long as
men would put one stone on top of
another and till their ground, they
wxiuld have products to barter and
exchange, and world commerce would
go on without interruption.”
"Tho solution Is a 'Job for every
man,'” the manufacturer said.
"Let the people of the world once
get the Idea that all they need is to
do a good doy's work six days a
week and that in this way they can
make their own prosperity, and there
will he no more talk about unstable
conditions.”
Mr. Ford declared one of the most
urgently needed reforms facing the
world pertained to more widespread
use of farm machinery. He told the
delegation that "farmers everywhere”
must be taught the use of machines
und their economic value before last
ing prosperity can come to any people.

A Sale Full of Money-Saving Opportunities

□HE LOOKOl l IN THE FOHETOP” worked to good advantage in tlia long-time prepa
rations for our January, 1923, White Sales. In consequence The Brandeis Store
was never better prepared than on this occasion to carry its January White Sales to suc
cessful conclusion. For many months preparations for this sale have been in progress. Our
representatives have eone to mills and to jobbers and have obtained merchandise in large
quantities and for cash at lowest possible prices. We have made a number of special pur
chases from individual firms that nave added materially to the advantages ourCustomer?
have in this sale. We made these purchases nt a time when the price of cotton was low. Since then th
south has been made glad by the rapid rise of its all-important product. For instance, the price of raw
cotton has increased more than 25 per cent since we made these purchases and that price continues to climb
The prices of Silks and Linens have also materially increased since our purchases for this sale were made
But having bought this merchandise at low ebb prices we pass the advantages to our customers and sell at
low ebb prices in the face of rising markets. For these reasons it is plain that our January White Sales
of 1923 will eclipse every other sale of their kind in the history of this big store.

the air from 21.000 radio “transmitting
stations." Secretary Hoover of tho
Commerce department told tho house
merchant marine committee today, at
hearings on the Kellogg White federal
radio control bill. Rerpesentatlves of
amateurs and various others Inter*
'rated In wireless communication, also
were heard by tho committee.
The hill provides that the Com

vision gser all radio communication,
assigning wave lengths, licensing op
erators and otherwise supervising
wireless communication to bring or
der out of the present chaos of Jaz*
hands, sporting services and crop re
ports, which are running simultane
ously on the same lengths.
Vigorous protest was made against
a provision of the bill which stipu
lates that whenever apparatus Is used
fer other than government business
it shall come under supervision of
the Commerce department.

miral Slegemeyer, protested that navy,
operators in many cases would hare
to obtain license from the Commerce

ed. Secretary Hoover told the com

casting stations were in operation and

largely from them. This broadcasting
j problem, he said, is undermining the
j useful possibilities of the Whole art
of wireless. Thousands of requests,
be suid, are arriving each month from
all parts of the country, that some
regulatory action be taken. Koine
cities, he said, hate as many ns 20
broadcasting stations, each interfering
with the others.
