FORD'S DENIAL OF PRESIDENTIAL HOPES HAS ALL EARMARKS OF KEEN POLITICIAN FORD'S DENIAL OF PRESIDENTIAL HOPES HAS ALL EARMARKS OF KEEN POLITICIAN Senator James Couzens. Political observers profess to see in the repeated denials of presidential aspirations by Henry Ford the keen hand of a shrewd politician. With the nation-wide straw vote of Collier's Weekly showing Ford an odds on favorite for the 1924 derby, the flivver king declares he's too busy to dabble in politics. Neither Republicans nor Democrats take Ford's recent statement seriously. Many a promising presidential boom has been amplyiously only to be killed by premature exploitation and this is apparently what Ford—if he really intends to become a candidate—and his backers intend to avoid. Senator James Couzens, former partner of Ford, now is one of Michigan's representatives in the U.S. senate. THE PLAIN DEALER, ANAHEIM, CALIF. As Seen By The Plain De KIDDIES "LION OF ARGONNE" TO SEE BUDDIES OF RAINBOW DIVISION PLANES DROP D The army air service is doing much to aid in the fight on the dreaded boll weevil, which annually destroys millions in cotton crops throughout the south. Airplanes equipped with special apparatus for discharging a poisonous dust fly at a low level over the cotton fields. The dust, specially prepared, is poisonous to the boll weevil but in no way harms the cotton plant itself. Settling low over the ground, the dust exterminates the weevil. The process is being effected by the army planes near Tallulah, La. The planes are equipped with with air suction hoppers which discharge the pest eradicating powder. The fine spray settles over the cotton plants and onto the ground. One plane is able to spray a great screage daily. The southern planters believe the new system will do much to reduce the boll weevil evil. Gen. H. J. E. Gouraud. Gen. H. J. E.

Felt hats and furs seem a trifle warm for the hot weather, but "Let us be fashionable or die."
