 We do not know what line the defense will 'aSe' but presumably Representative Tavenner believes he ken, within the law when he aided the indigent Mr. Ford to carry on his peaceatany price campaign with ,be help of public funds Whether he did or did mol, the fact stands that the tranng privilege has been often used to carry other publicity campaigns which had no better claims upon the revenues of the post office than Mfr EOrds In some cases the claim was very much less for Mir Ford Is disnterested He ia not using the malls free Of charge for the purpose O, establishing protective tariffs his own product
