from farmer representatives in Con-
gress for enactment of a sweeping
law exempting all farmer and farmer
organizations from liability under all
antitrust legislation that has been
enacted by Congress.
The House Judiciary Committee
has begun hearings on exemption bills

a grape growers organization in their
State have been before the Depart
ment of Justice and must go before
the Federal Trade Commission to de-
fend themselves against possible
prosecution for violation of antitrust
laws in their collective bargaining and
profit-taking operations.
Nothing containe ed in the antitrust
laws say these exemption bills,

PLOT To KIDNAP
EDSEL FORD FO|LED

TOLEDO. Ohio. Oct. ga con-
spIracy to kidnap ,Edsel Ford and de-
mand 100000 ransom, has been frus-
trated by the arrest here of four-men.
Toledo police announced. The ar
rests are the result of revelations by
Claude Gray. who is said by the po-
lice to be a Burns detective opera
tive.
Gray, the police say, told them he
had gained the condolences of the
conspirators by posing as an ex-con-
vict. and thus learned their plans.
The men under arrest are Joseph
Fisher, Edward Kenney. and Earl
Cameron, all OF New York and Rich
ard Ramsey, of San Francisco
The men were arrested at a room
ing house raided by the police under
Gray's instructions.
Plotted to Drug Ford.
According to the police the men
plotted to drug Ford and take him TO
Mount Clemens, Mich, where he was
to be held prisoner until the ransom
was paid
Gray told the police that Kenney
was a former bell boy at the Pont-
chartrien Hotel. Detroit, who knew
Edsel Ford
The four men are being held by the
police here for further investigation.
The four men planned to rob the
Ohio Savings Bank and Trust Com
pany here, according to Gray. TO OBJ
tain funds to carry out their scheme
and had provided themselves with a
new automobile and necessary arms
and the hold-up was to have been
staged today.
All negotiations for Ford's release
were to be conducted from New York,
where three of the kidnapers were
to go as soon as they had Ford safe
in Mount Clemens. When Henry
Ford had signifed his willingness to
pay the 100000 ransom, a telegram
telling him of his sons whereabouts

THE VICTORY AT SEA

sation a thousand miles away from
the western front and the German sub
marines. 1t was the most inspiring in
stance of self-control that / have ever
known; only one other case in history
can be compared with it, for Lloyd
Georges attitude at this period con-
stantly reminded me of Lincoln in the
darkest hours of the Civil War, when,
on news of such calamities as Fred
ericksburg or Charlottesville. he would
entertain his cabinet by reading se-
lections from Artemus Ward, interlard-
ed with humorous sayings and anec-
dotes of his own. Perhaps Lloyd
Georges cheerfulness is explained by
anotherd trait which he similarly had
in common with Lincoln; there is a
Welsh mysticism in his nature, which
am told, sometimes takes the form
of religious exaltation- Lloyd-George's
faithin God and in a divine ordering
of history is evidently so profound that
the idea of German victory probably
never seized his mind as reality; we
all know that Lincoln's absolute conf
dence in the triumph of the north rest
ed upon a similar basis. Certainly
only some such deep set conviction a s
this could explain Lloyd George's Sc
renity and optimism in the face of the
most frightful calamities.

for work.
The children have an equal stake in
the home with the parents and should
early be made to feel that responsibility
and bear their share of work.
Older children, who are earning an
income but living at home should pay
board and rent to their parents,
quite as they would pay strangers for
the same service-the amount depending
somewhat upon the income received.
Few parents demand all the earnings of
their children. or have any right to them
but the childs self-respect and train
ing i'm independence requires that he pay
his way if he can.
All children, old or young. and the
husband as we'll should share the gen
special duties. Each member of the
family should be responsible for the care
of his personal belongings. and should
be taught to keep clothing. books, toys.
tools. etc, in their place and in good
order.
Besides, each member of the family
should be assigned some daily worlSs in.
washing dishes, making beds, caring for
fires. hopping floors and porches, etc
some task which not only relieves the
mother but trains the child to take his
part in the group life and work as a
ly.
Such habits in the family group will
often enable even a large family to dis
ponse with hired help, and effect lasge
saving.
Young boys and girls should early be
taught that household duties are digni-
fled and important and not demaning.
The work mother must do is not too
mental for her children.
Good discipline, sane living standards,
and domestic economy demands full fam
lily cooperation in home-making.
