| Washington, Dec l0.---Worried lest re.
ports of what is taking place aboard the
Oscar III. might annoy President Wilson,
Henry Ford sent wireless message to
the president yesterday, saying he would
send first hand information of develop
ments on the high seas.
In his message, Mr.. Ford says:
I "Hope you will not be annoyed by
misleading dispatches from newspaper
correspondents of proceedings on steam
er. / will keep you informed Of deyel-
opments"
II is believed Ford has reference to
dispatches that he would send denunci-
alton of the presidents message to Con-
gress.
Ford's wireless bills Wednesday on
one message alone were over 5000, not
Including the land tolls. Yesterday he
started off early, message No. read

New York, Dec l0---Judge Ben B.
Lindsey spoke Of his work in the Den
yer juvenile court on the Ford peace
ship Wednesday night to show that love
and not the power of arms is the force
that works the best advantage in inter
national as well as individual cases.
Judge Lindsey cited number of in
stances, drawing from his experiences in
sixteen years on the bench, to show that
the criminal responded most readily to
trust, giving statistics to prove that more
persons escaped while on their way to
prison shackled than when sent alone
on their honor
He took Il decided rap at the prepar
edness policy, telling how firearms were
unknown in the reform prison camps OF
Colorado except when they were needed /
to use against those living near the camp |
who stole from the convicts.
In summing up his address he com I
pared the militaristic elements with the |
third degree" policemen, seeking to show |
that the spirit of love in international I
politics would be as much no-e ,fTee.
tive than force in the dealings OF nations
as his own methods were compared with
those employed by the police wien ne
