President John F. Kennedy 1917-1962 Invited Hanna Reitch to the White House and admired the Fuhrer "Hitler will emerge from the hatred that surrounds
him now as one of the most significant figures who ever lived... He had a mystery about him in the way that he lived and in the manner of his death
that will live and grow after him. He had in him the stuff of which legends are
made."

HENRY FORD 1863-1947 Henry
Ford was born on July 30, 1863, during the
American Civil War, on a farm at Dearborn,
near Detroit, Michigan. He was the son of William Ford, a prosperous farmer who was of Irish
stock. His mother was of mixed Dutch and Scandinavian origin. At 17 he became an apprentice in a machine shop in Detroit, and he also kept a machine shop of his own and
worked for a harvester company by repairing their portable farm engines. His mechanical genius showed itself in early youth,
and in 1890, when he secured a post with the Detroit Edison Electric Company, he realized that the public were more interested
in road vehicles than in tractors and he studied the principles of the gas engine to overcome the weight of steam engines.
In 1887 he had built his first gas engine and kept on building more. His first gasoline "buggy" was given a public
trial in 1893 at which it attained a speed of 25 miles an hour.
In
1903 he formed the Ford Motor Company with 12 shareholders and a capital of 100,000 dollars. In 1924 he was producing one
thousand of the world-famous Ford motor-cars a day. In 1924 the annual production of the Ford works reached the towering peak
of two million cars, trucks and tractors. The secret of his success lay in mass production methods, and high wages. Of humble
origin himself he had a deep feeling for his employees, and worked out rough and ready principles in regard to labor which
he constantly applied. One was to pay the highest possible wages, and in this he was a true reformer; another, to accept applicants
for work without questions or references. Many European socialists were impressed by Ford's proof demonstration that Marx
had been rendered obsolete by Ford and that capitalism could be rationalized and moralized. In 1918, Ford, who had been a
supporter of President Wilson, had unsuccessfully run for the Senate, and there was some talk later -- it caused alarm among
the professional politicians -- that he would run for the Presidency, but he announced that he would not stand against Coolidge.
Ford made great endeavors, most of them impracticable, to negotiate peace between the warring nations of Europe in the First World War.
In
1920 he went into print and bought "The Dearborn Independent," a very independent journal published in his home
town. It was noted for its courageous and continuous examination of the Jewish Question in America, and for its objective views on true Americanism. Ford also published his Book, “The
International Jew”.
Ford was accused by many
Jews, along with Deterding and Greuger, to be a financial backer of the Hitler movement in Germany. At the Nuremberg Tribunal, Baldur Von Shirach, Hitler Youth Leader,
said he had become "Jew-wise" through reading Ford's books.
Ford
was a resolute opponent of Roosevelt's policy
of "controls" in industry and commerce, but in his later years his political and other public activities were few.
He died aged 83, at Detroit, April 7, 1947. A famous American and one of the world's
outstanding individuals.
