$50 Total Costs Ford
Can Collect Under Law

MOUNT CLEMENS, Mich,
49, Aug. 15.-The amount of
costs that Henry Ford may re-
ceive from the Chicago Daily
Tribune. in addition to the six
cents damages awarded him last
night by a jury, which heard his
libel suit against the Chicago
newspaper, will not exceed $50.
Under a Michigan law where
nominal damages are awarded,
not more than $50 costs can be
assessed against the losing party.
Alfred Lucking, senior counsel
for Mr.. Ford, said this morning
that little attention had been
given to the matter Of costs and
that until he had looked up the
law covering the case, he could
not say how much the plaintiff
could expect to receive. Among
other attorneys, however, the
opinion was held that In cases
where damages awarded amount
to less than $50, the costs col
lectible may not exceed the judg-
ment awarded. In this event,
Mr.. Ford could demand only six
cents costs from the Tribune.

Pans, Aug. 15.-The relegation Of
the Turkish question to the oblivion Of
unfinished business" appears to be
having a fortunate effect in simplify
ing the problem-for the Turks. For
the Peace Conference the effect is
rather disquieting. The Young Turk
revolution, for which the stage al
ready has been set, Is threatening to
reestablish the power of the Commit
tee of Union and Progress and to over
throw the present pro-Ally Govern
ment and to complicate the Turkish
situation into one colossal muddle OF
chaos and disorder.
Diplomatic advices received by the
Peace Conference say that Mustapha
Kemal, chief Of the revolutionaries, has
transferred the Erzeroum National AS
sembly to Sirwas and virtually set up
a government there. His army is said
to be gathering new strength daily.
His latest adherents are officers of the
old Teutonized army regime, among
them Gen. HALL Pasha, uncle of Enver
Pasha, who early this week escaped
from prison TO Asia Minor, where he

which Voltaire affirmed to be the only

Two Power Range of This Machine
 Saves Expense

As the Peerless Motor Car Com pany enters upon the fourth year of its production of the Two-POwer- Range Eight, officials look back with pride upon the results of tests which have proven it's remarkable economt- cal advantages.
 They point in particular to the sue cess of the Two-Powe Range model in the Los Angeles Camp Curry econ Gmy run in which this car, the only multiple-cylinder entry, carried off the honors. With total weight of 4,850 pounds, including passen gers and baggage, the Peerless made the 644.4 miles over boulevards, through canyons, across desert and up noun tain roads, averaging 16.6 miles to every gallon of gasolene

 While there is no prospect of a drop in passenger car and truck prices no one in the world can forecast with certainty the price movements of the next ten months. and the Packard people feel that it is no more than fair to assure the present buyer of a new car or truck that if a reduction becomes possible during 1919 he will share in it.
 To quote c. R. Norton, general dis rribution manager:
 If at any time during 1919 we should be able to make a price re- duCtiOn in either cars or trucks or both, this reduction will be made re- troactive, and we shall refund to every purchaser of a new Packard car or truck as the case may be between January 1 and December 31 1919 in elusive, tho full amount of the differ ence beJv cen the price hs paid and the new price. In case of contract executed prior to any such price re- duction but where vehicles are unde- livered at the time of reduction the distributor will rewrite the contra cts tU conform to the new price,
 This is, we believe, the first instance on record of any automobile company guaranteeing that an early buyer will be reimbursed in case of a price re- ductiOn.

PACKARD'S SNOvEL
 PRICE INSURANCE
Its Price Takes Decided Drops-Buyers All Get
 Refund.

Not since the war ended has any thing in the automobile business been done to stabilize conditions so much as the Packard Motor Car Company's recent announcement that it would protect all patrons against a drop in prices. Packard's new policy has un- doubtedIy cleared up the minds of many prospective purchasers who weight but strong in texture, and per lection is closely approached. The loafing range is obviously for ordi- nary driving; the sporting range, for high speed and power.
 The mechanical construction which makes this two-Tange feature possible involves a special carburetor contain ing two sets of jets. The one set is sufficient for the needs of the car when a speed of less than 45 miles an hour is maintained. This is the loafing range.
 The second set opens automatically when the car advances beyond 45 miles an hour, insurinE maximum speed and power. This is the sporting range.
