The anti.libel league, of Portland, is
arranging to initiate a law concerning
libel. 1t would make it mandatory
on a publisher who had published :
falsS statement concerning another to
print q full statement of the matter
furnished, sworn to, by the party ag-
grieved. 1t also makes it a misdemea-
nor for anyone to furnish a newspaper
a false statement, and makes it a penal
cffense for any newspaper editor or
manager to intimidate anyone. When
libelOus statement has been publish
ed, the evidence that the correctec
version of the story has been printed
can be presented to The Jury in mitiga-
tion of the offense.

now $50; $40 to $50 suits cut to $35.
