Aug. 10~Henry Ford favors a. high tariff for Can- ada. according to statements made by the auto manufacturer 1n an exclus- ive interview with the Bordcr Cities Star. "I see no reason to object to the raising of tariff schedules in Canada." he said. though I'm not a tariff advocate in the United Stem.

Mr. Ford considers Canada s great country commercially. but says that is not s. tithe of what it will become. He says that differences in cost of making cars in United States and Canada is just a matter of quantity and that the price of Plcrd products in any country are not based on tar- iff differences. but only on the cost of manufacture.
