FORD'S ARTICLES WERE CHRISTIAN
 TEACHINGS, CLERGYMAN TESTIFIES
Bishop Williams Testifies World Would Be Better if People Followed Principles Auto King Propounded.

Mount Clemens, Mich, July 25.- an Episcopal minister and lecturer, an Episcopal minister and lecdturer, testified today for Henry Ford in Mr. Ford's $1,OOO, ,O0O libel suit against the Chicago Daily Tribune.
 Bishop Williams testimony was in tended to refute that of Prof. Reeves of the University of Michigan who some time ago testified that many of MT. FOrd's ideas were anarchistic He was questioned by Attorney Alfred Lucking, senior counsel for Mr. Ford.
 What is an anarchist?'' asked MT. Lucking.
 "One who believes, advocates and works for the elimna ton of govern- ment and does so by violent means"
 MT. Lucking quoted MT. Ford as advocating world viewpoint rather than the national viewpoint.
 No Anarchistic Ideas.
 "Is there anything in that this is peculiarly anarchistic?' Bishop Will Hams said the remark of Mr. Ford was not peculiarly anarchistic but was a sentiment occurring frequently in the Bible as love thy neighbor as thy self
 The essence of Bishop Williams testimony was that nothing in the teachings of Mr. Ford were peculiarly anarchistic. Some were in the Bible, some were held true by many persons not anarchists, he said. Even refer ence to war as murder was made by Carlisle and E.m CrSOn as well as many other philosophers, witness stated.
 Termed Christian Teachings
 Talking the Ford articles as a whole, was there anything anarchist ic?" lsked MT. Lucking.
 Mo- replied the witness.
 ''They are Christian teachings?"
 Taught in many pulpits. If these teachings were followed out this would be a pretty good Christian world"

DROP WORLD TREATY
 TO TAKE UP OLD ONE
Agreement Between United States and Columbia Pro-
 vides For $25,OOO,OOO.

Washington, July 25.-Under pres cnt plans of republican leaders, the peace treaty will be set aside tempor- arily for consideration of the treaty between the United States and Colum- bia, proposing payment to the latter of $25, 900 for damages arising from American acquisition of the Panama canal.
 Chairman Lodge of the senate for eign relations committee said today the Colombian treaty would be taken up by the committee next week with the senate. Action on the treaty has been urged by state department off, cials.
 It was understood an agreement has been reached between Senator Lodge and Under-Secretary Polk of the state department by, which the committee would eliminate the clause of the treaty suggesting regrets to ColOm bia for the partition of Panama.
 Republicans have held up ratifica- ton of the treaty for several years because of this clause and some time ago the amount of the damages to be paid Colombia was reduced to $15,- 000,000 but in consideration of the elimination of the regret clause the original sum of 25,OOO,O0O was re- stored.
