Suggested BY DR.. Guy Currier
That 1t Be Called Roosevelt
School

F. M. Currier today received a
letter from his son, DIR. Guy Currier,
Kensington, Kan, in which the latter
the hope that the board of
education would name the new Un-
ion school building after Theodore
Roosevelt. DR.. Currie is of the be-
lief that this would be a most fitting
manner in which Mankato could
honor the late president and distin-
guished American citizen. This ex-
cellent suggestion is passed up to the
board of education for action.

Paris, Jan. 22.-Various economic
delegations, owing to pressure of more
urgent problems before delegates tc
the peace congress, are studying each
for itself the blockade and kindred
subjects. 1t is probable joint discus
sious will be inaugurated soon.
The American viewpoint contem-
plates a certain relaxation of the
earlier "watertight" blockade which
would allow the entry Of foodstuffs,
lubricants. and other materials into
enemy countries. This, it Is held,
would permit the restoration of dis
tributing systems, -four mills and
other agencies involved in the prep
aration of food supplies. The block
ade, however, would otherwise be as
rigidly enforced as ever because of
its value as a weapon to force the
enemy to accept the peace terms that
will be presented.
Food Sent Into Vienna.
The relaxation Of the blockade as
regards foodstuffs is already effective
in a portion of the former Hapsburg
domains. Food is being sent into
Vienna as well as to liberated re-
gions.''
The problem of trade restrictions on
neutrals as part of the enemy block
ade is also under consideration.
Restrictions on Neutrais.
This problem, however, is compli-
Gated by the question of possible com.
petition between neutrals and the
handicapped entente belligerents be-
fore the latter are completely re-
stored to their antebellum efficiency.
1t is urged by representatives of vari-
Gus Allied governments that it would
be unfair to give neutrals undue IA
cilities to rush in and seize world
trade while the Entente belligerents
are unable to compete on equal terms.
American representatives, believe it
feasible to arrange a compromise be-
tween belligerents and neutrals in this
matter.
At least one of the European bel
ligerents has an economic program
which it desires to see incorporated
in the adjustments effected by the
peace congress. This program in
cludes the supply of raw materials
and the restoration and recuperation
of trade at moderate prices through a
system of priority export licenses.
The program also includes financial
and trade arrangements. it Is said.

NO ANARCHY IN VIEWS
OF HENRY FORD

Mt. Clemens, Mich.--The Chicago
Tribune rested It's defense In the
$1,000,000 libel suit which Henry Ford
has brought against 1t after spending
seven weeks and two days in attempt
ing to prove that it was justified in
calling the manufacturer an "anar-
chist." The 18th week of the trial
opened with Ford counsel offering re-
buttal testimony against The Tri-
bune's defense
The first witness for Mr.. Ford was
the Rt. Rev. Charles D. Williams, D..
D., Episcopal bishop of Michigan, who
appeared on the stand in rebuttal OF
the testimony of Prof. ]. s. Reeves,
professor of political science In the
University of Michigan who had pre-
viously testified that Henry Ford's
views were distinctly anarchistic,
Bishop Williams said that Mr.
Ford's views were far from being
anarchistic and were, in fact, Chris
tian, common and often commonplace.
The Bishop refused to be led DyI
Tribune counsel in his answers and
insisted on telling the whole truth. 7
Asked whether he thought Henry
Fords declaration that all armies
should be disbanded, all navies de1
stroyed and all material of war conf
verted into commercial implements
was anarchistic, the witness answer

Would Be Good World.

Il could quote a half-dozen pas
sages from Scripture that express all
most that idea. l should say that the
main theme of these statements byl
Henry Ford are distinctly ChristianI
commonly preached in Christian pull
pits and that If they we're lived up to-
this would be a pretty good Christian
world"
Bishop" asked Tribune counsel,
do you believe that Mr. Ford has
quoted, patriotism is the last resort
of scoundrel.'"
81 have often said So" responded
the witness. Il have often seen it so.
Concerning the doctrine of nom
resistance Bishop Williams declared
he did not believe in such a theory
but that many Christians did.
1T is the belief of anarchists" said
Tribune counsel.
Eyes and the belief of Christians"
"Wlll you be good enough to ans
wer the question" retorted counsel.

ians say that. am afraid l. am going

not asked you to tell"
you have not asked me for the
whole truth. have to follow my con-
science. | am a simple man"
II am afraid" continued the Bishop,
that if this is anarchy agree with 1t
mostly"
Ford counsel then called William
A. Dunning, professor of history and
political philosophy in Columbia Uni
versity, to testify concerning Mr..
Ford's theories and utterances. q
When Henry Ford" said counsel,
"said that we should stop talking a.
bout one factory, one state and one
country and begin to talk about the
world was he preaching the doctrine
Of anarchy"
mo that is the general thought Of
cosmopolitanism - human inclusive.
ness; it has permeated all speculation
on political philosophy ever since
there was such philosophy"
SIS there anything peculiarly anar-
ohistic about it,"
mo"
"Is it in any way essential to anar-
chlsm?"
NO"
Mr.. Ford also said that he believed
humanity could make mistakes but
could do nothing worse; he said he
believed everything tended toward
the good, and that even the terrible
world war would result in blessing to
the world. Is there anything anarchistic
about those ideas?"
"They were commonplace before an
anarchist was ever heard Of. The
idea that man is naturally good is
the basis of Plato's morals. 1t has
permeated moral philosophy ever
since"
Prof. Dunning was then asked TO
run through the articles and inter-
views sponsored by Henry Ford and
indicate the portions which would
convince critical examiner that Mr..
Ford was not an anarchist.
The witness promptly pointed out
numerous references to the govern
ment and to the use of the ballot
which showed, he said, that Mr. Ford
believed in the orderly processes Of
government and therefore could not
be an anarchist. In no writing or
interview, he said, could he find
single indication that Mr.. Ford was
an anarchist, either in the common
or philosophical conception Of that
term.
