Prepared for Action To-day.
With the House agriculture COM

which was reported to the House to-
day by unanimous vote, includes
retailers among those liable under
the Food Control Act, and it's enact

NOMINAL DAMAGES
 AWARDED TO FORD

 It was then that the editorial was written. It called MT. Ford an Zig norant idealist," and remarked that his views on disarmament might be different if his factories were On the Rio Grande instead of the peaceful Canadian border.
 Counsel for the manufacturer at first filed suit in the federal court at Chicago, but later withdrew it and instituted proceedings in the state court at Detroit. Here the Tribune applied for a change of venue and Judge James G. Tucker of the circuit court of Macomb county, at Mount Clemens, was agreed upon to hear the case. Selection of jury be- gan May 12. It consisted of eleven farmers and one road builder.
 A feature of the case was the pro- duction by the defendant of more than twenty witnesses from the Mexican border to testify to raids, murders and other acts which, to the mind of Tribune counsel, established the c 4,A 4t,oo ,r,oe o condition Of anarchy along the border.
 Professor Reeves of the University of Michigan, appearing as an expert testified that many of the Ford utter ances corresponded with the teach ings of well-organized anarchists. He gave definitions of the word "anarch- ist' which contained no reference to homb-throwing, but which denoted one who works to overturn the gov ernn1ent.
 Counsel for defendant argued that government existed only so far as It could enforce it's deCrees and protect the lives dLu pIOpC1 y VI ACo that without force there can be no government and that where there IS no government there is anarchy. Therefore, they sought to establish that in opposing the recruiting Of soldiers MT. Ford opposed govern ment itself, and, by the same token sought to establish anarchy.
 Therefore, they sought to estaD- fish that in opposing the recruiting or soldiers MT. Ford opposed govern ment itself and, by the same token, sought to establish anarchy, hence Ford is an anarchist" they sald' The defense throughout was one or Justification and the right of talr comment.

nesses for the plaintiff Many of MT. FOrd's utteranCes which the defend ant had called anarchistic, he said, also were to be found in the scrip lures and in the writings of nOn- anarchistic philosophers. As to the Ford propaganda, he drew the dis tinction that man might mistakenly advocate policies which would result in anarchy without himself being an anarchist. If his object was to es- tabIish anarchy, then he could be characterized as an anarchist. MT. Ford's object, it was stated, was to establish universal peace.
 Counsel for MT. Ford attempted to prove that the editorial was written in maliCe-specific malice as we'll as the malice assumed in the mere pub lication of the editorial. To this end they charged that the Tribune was pro-German and that it's advocacy of intervention in Mexico was a mask to hide friendship for Germany. The theory advanced was that by inter- vention American munitions would be diverted from the enemies of Ger many.
 MT. Ford did not accept the def- nitions of anarchy given by Professor Reeves. He personally as witness, and by other means, insisted that by anarchist the Tribune meant the old fashioned bomb-thrOwer of the Hay market square variety. That, his lawyers asserted was the impression that Tribune readers would get from the editorial.
 The hearing was one of the longest on record, according to counsels. Transcript of testimony approximated 2,O00,O00 words.

BASED ON LIVING COSTS
Special Despatch to The suS.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-The Admin
lstration's decision on the demands OF
the Elk crafts constituting the rail-
road shopmen, for an increase in
wages to meet the high cost of liv-
ing and the wages paid for similar
work In other Industries viii be an
nounced Monday or Tuesday. 1t was
learned to-day.
While no Information regarding the
decision will be given out until formal
answer 10 presented to the shopmen,
It is understood that the wage de-
mands, approximating an aggregate
increase OF s165,oo0 900 a year, will be
granted to a substantial amount. 1t
is regarded as likely that the increase
granted will be predicated upon the
basis Of placing the railroad workers
on the same wage plane with men in
similar trades in the shipyards and
manufacturing industries where work.
ing conditions are equivalent.
Returns on the strike vote by all the
railroad shopmen will be in Monday.
Consequently announcement Of Director
General Illness decision on wage de-
mands will come at practically the same
time.
Despite the Administrations efforts
there has been no substantial reduction
in living costs. The high cost of living
has been made n determining factor in
wage demands not only by the shopmen
but by the railroad brotherhoods, and
all the other unions of railroad workers.
In the face OF the present situation II
seems certain that the Administration
decision with respect to the shopmen
will be made on the basis OF the present
high costs.
1t Is expected that an announcement
with respect to rates may be made CO.
Incident with or Immediately following
wage increases granted. Extensive rate
studies have been made for the Director
General, showing expected returns from
the application Of various rate levels.

THREAT TO TIE UP

Senator Thomas Cites Circu-
lar as Proof.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 23.-"Success OF
the strike on which the railway shop
men of the country now are voting will
depend entirely upon how we can stop
the transportation service of the coun-
try" said a circular presented in the
Senate to-day by Senator Thomas (Colo-
rado) The Senator said the statement
had been sent out by the railway en-
ployees' department of the American
Federation OF Labor.
The circular, dated August 5. said II
II came to a strike I'VE want to make
the tieup complete and keep 1t In that
condition until We get proper recogni-
ton"
Senator Thomas said this situation
was a perfectly legitimate development
OF the action OF Congress in 1914 in
exempting organizations of laboring men
from the operation OF the antitrust law.
Demands OF the shopmen as we'll as
other railroad employees for increased
wages now are being considered by Di-
rector-General Hines of the Railroad
Administration.
