Mr. Ford discussed these and other things with the United Press correspondent as We sat in his modeat workshop and office at his winter home in, Flórida.

Ford is as firmly opposed to alcohol as he ever was.
My only thought on the liquor question is that the present law in the United States should not be changed in any way," he said.
Of course it can be enforced. is being enforced more and more. People should stop talking about it, and the papers ought to stop agitating about it. People want Prohibition. Our President had made it clear where he stands on the matter. It is time to quit talking so much.
Non-Drinking Workmen.
"In Ireland, for instance, we find that a wage of something more than a pound a day gives our Irish en ployees a purchasing power equal to that of our American employees who have a minimum wage of seven dollars a day. So that is what we Pay in Ireland. And that is what seven American dollars are worth in Ireland's money."
Ford Factories in Britain, Asked about the prospects for his Irish and British factories, Ford was enthusiastic.
"We find certain advantages in manufacturing tractors in Ire- land," he said. " and so we have been building them there, and have shipped many of them to this coun try for sale."
He now has a large plant under construction in England, and his representatives, after surveying the Dearborn working out plans for a South American field, are now at South American factory,
"Its location has not been deter-, mined," Ford said. "There are many factors to be considered, in- cluding not only markets and facilities for manufacturing, but the isolation of one South Ameri can country from another. Each country, is separate by itself," "

What is all this discussion about automatic machinery and who is it throwing out of work Ford queried. "It is just some thing to talk about, and it is not throwing people out of work.
