MO ANARCHY IN
F0RD'S VIEWS
BISHOP WILLIAMS TESTIFlES IN
THE 100000 LIBEL CASE
AGAINST TRIBUNE.
WON'T TELL 4HALF-TRUTHS'
Noted Divine Says If Manufacturers
Theories Are Anarchistic Then,
He Is In Danger Of Beeom-
ing Anarchist Himself.

Mt. Clemens, Mich.-The Chicago
Tribune rested it's defense IN the
100000 libel suit which Henry Ford
has brought against it 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. ]. 8. 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.
Tord's views were far from being
anarchistic and were, In fact, Chris
tian, common and often commonplace
The Bishop refused to be led by
Tribune counsel in his answers and
insisted on telling "the whole truth. -
Asked whether he thought Henry

Real Tobacco In Prussia.

Real tobacco, good tobacco, was
once grown In more than one Prussian
province. an exchange says. In
B-andenburg, particularly, so much to-
bacco was cultivated that Frederick II
felt called upon In 1776 to regulate
matters. First the quantity was cut
down, and later II was allowed to be
grown only in districts In which agri-
culture did not flourish. In one year
alone, 1872, 16S,0O0 hundredwelght
was grown. In 1880 Frederick ordered
a Berlin chemist, Achard, to expert
ment with the object Of improving the
quality Of the tobacco. Attempts were
made at Lichtenberg, near Berlin, to
introduce Virginia tobacco, and Ach-
ard was given handsome pension for
life for his services In improving to.

Fall Suits Or
Tailored Lines

The 1919 autumn suit is strictly
tailored. Its lines have none ,of the
sOftness of recent seasons and often
the edges of the coat are bound In
braid, which makes it even more
severe, notes a prominent fashion
writer.
1t seems certain that the strictly
tailored effect with the three-Quarter
length coat and skirt with circular
fullness will remain with us during
the season.
Reminiscent of the time of Louis
XIV and Louis XVI with the 'nipped.
in" shoulder and semifitted waistline
are many Of these jackets with coat
skirts that are full and flaring and
equipped with big pockets at the sides,
and though the skirts have more full
ness than the models Of the past sea-
son they are still straight of line.
The lines of the coat as well as the
one-piece dresses have the effect of
the redingote. The fullness, a little
below the hips, Is set in by cartridge
plaits, as well as by cleverly placed
stitched tucks, which gives the slim
silhouette.
Distinctive Models.
A smart coat and skirt costume is
fashioned on the lines of those which
no doubt will be seen on the modish
woman this fall and winter.
This suit is made Of soft, green
duvetyn. The closing of the front is
effected by one single button at the
waistline. The collar is high and
fastens with two buttons. There is a
single wide revers faced with velvet.
The full flaring coat skirts slant away
from the front. The skirt is also
made with seam which begins at the
left side Of the waistline and slants
toward the right. A hat Of green vel
vet in same tint as the coat revers
completes the costume.
Another suit Is made of black vel
veteen, the coat semifitted and fas-
tened straight down the front from
The Clio messenger., 1919-12-25

may be used in describing suit with
coat which Is straight and long to
the knees. It has a fiat back and
front, while circular ripping fullness
is held under narrow belts at the
waistline at either side. A narrow
rolled collar runs almost to the waist
line where the two front sections Of
the coat meet and fasten with link
buttons Of black bone. There are
pockets outlined with bands Of the
material, but no trimming Is used.
The skirt, which Is ever so slightly
circular, falls in ripples to a becom-
ing length.
Especially created for the woman
who favors loose lines In spite of the
new semifitted effects Is a lovely de-
sign that would be charming in duve-
tyn or velvet, materials to which
1t Is very well adapted. Most distinc-
tive are the lines of the coat. Though
back and front are fiat, there are
loose flowing sides that tuck In un-
der at the bottom. The narrow belts
of the material confine the waist In
front, while a straight band Of the
material forms the collar, crushing
softly around the neck. Long fitted
sleeves are finished with unusual
cuffs, loops Of the material. The skirt
Is very simple with easy fullness.

colors. Often a blouse, say of navy
blue or brown georgette crepe, VIII
have a relieving note of beige or some
light harmonizing tone and frequently
they are made over lining OF the
lighter tone material.
One blouse, admirably adapted as an
accompaniment of a smart fall suit
was Of navy blue georgette over beige.
The beige formed round yoke and
short undersleeves. Tiny eOlored but
tons trimmed the beige yoke and un-
dersleeves, and the edges of both the
OverblOuse and underblouse were
piped In dark blue.
Another equally charming blouse
was made of brown georgette over
bisque lining. This blouse was also
fashioned with yoke and under
sleeves of the lining material. The
bodice was trimmed with green but
tons and tiny frills of the bisque crepe.
To be sure, there are more elabO-I
rate models, many of which are OF chif-
fon or georgette crepe and are elabO-
rately embroidered in beads or silk.
dull gold or silver thread. But blousesI
of this class deserve story all their
own. Models in the dressy blouse
class as well as those intended for
more practical wear, are made with a
peplum or in the form of a basque
the latter doing away with the neces-,
sity of belt.
New and Vivid Colorings.
The smart woman Of limited income
will pay little heed to the new and
rather vivid colorings. She will quite
wisely choose one Of the lovely
browns or blues or green's which are
offered, leaving the new Liberty reds
for her more fortunate sisters with
larger wardrobe. For the materials,
she will choose duvetyn-that is. If
she can afford it-but, If she finds this
too expensive, then she will favor fine
velours or a soft velveteen, POiret
twill or heavy English serge.

MOTOR CARS MAY
DOOM RAILROADS

USEFUL FOR farm HAULING
New Element In Transportation Prob
lem Should Be Considered While
Studying Reorganization Of
Transportation System.

O. A. Morse. assistant director Of op-
grafton of the United States rail-
way administration, and one Of the
best known railroad men In America,
believes that the motorcar may doom
the short-rail lines of the country.
"The perfection Of the motortruck,
together with the universal use of the
automobile, has introduced new ele-
ment in the transportation problem
that should be taken into consideration
it this time, while studying the reor-
Kanization Of the whole transportation
system" said Mr.. Morse.
"Where, therefore, the development
Of the country for so miles on either
side Of trunk line has required the
construction Of light branch lines, It
Is a question to be seriously consid-
cred whether this policy should be
continued or whether the products Of
the farm should not be handled by mo-
torcar to the main lines"
Situation Not Surprising.
The situation described by Mr..
Morse is not surprising to makers Of
motorcars designed especially for
farmers needs. Purchases by farmers
Of business cars of medium capacity
aave increased enormously during the
last year. Their wide touring radius
lnd low haulage cost have enabled the
farmer not only to curtall freight
charges on purchases of building ma
serlal, implements, seed, groceries, etc.,
but to take immediate advantage of
me prices at the most advantageous
markets.
Even sheep and calves are rapidly
transported to market so miles dis
tant without the delay incident to the
nse of the railroads.

yineer made the statement that the

Motor Army City Washington

+. II. Akers, Chicago. manager of
large automobile concern, has pre-
sented the results of some investiga-
tlons relative to motor stages and
freight lines.
While Mr.. Akers believes in COM
mon with many other automobile men
that rural express lines have a future
before them, he has run across sew
eral problems which must be met and
solved before they can be complete
success. He advocates the establish
ment of rural express commission
operating under the state government,
and regulating rates, competition, etc.,
as protection to this very young in
dustry. Here is a case which Mr..
Akers investigated:
"Not long ago one Of our truck deal
ers in Washington saw very feasible
untraversed motor express route be-
tween a small town and fairly good
sized city. A young clerk in clothing
store had consistently saved his mon
ey-had been reading the govern
ments propaganda-and saw in the
rural express idea an opportunity of
becoming his own boss-a proprietor
of a rural express line-with every
chance to expand. The young man
enlisted the help of the truck dealer.
Together they canvassed the mer-
chants in the town and were assured
Of enough business to make the line
pay, providing reasonable amount
Of freight could be secured in the
city to haul back.
"The young man purchased the
truck and soon had a thriving little

chin to q little below the waistline
with a row Of small, round, material
buttons and loops. The sleeves are
also button trimmed. At the hips three
f1ounces have been inset, which gave
the modish flare. This unusually smart
costume is topped by small black
draped toque.
Still another Is an exceedingly at
tractive frock of velvety finished
brown duvetyn. 1t has the new high
collar buttoned close up around the
neck and chin and the new fiaring
sleeves button trimmed to the elbow.
The bodice Is made basque effect. The
skirt Is rather wide and has large
pocket draperies at the sides. The
costume Is accompanied by chic
dark brown velvet hat trimmed at the
edge with an antique gold cord.
Tho Dressy Blouse.
After the momentous question of
the fall suit has been settled the aver
age woman Immediately turns her at
tention to the blouse to accompany It.
In former years the white lingerie
waist was considered good form and
quite elaborate enough for ordinary
wear and most occasions. But condi-
tions have changed. Such charming
blouses have been developed these
latter years that the simple shirt
waist-forerunne of them all-now
seems to be relegated to the row Of
discarded garments. Perhaps the
laundry problem has had something to
do with this. While many business
women prefer the tailored shirtwaist
It is now apt to be Of soft plant
crepe or satin or silk requiring no
starch and the simplest laundry at
tention.
Well-dresse6 women everywhere rec
ognize the value of the blouse In the
exact shade of the coat suit, making
thus a perfect costume as a rule suit
able for almost every occasion.
Smart oeorgette Models.

business. Then another truck dealer
got busy and persuaded another man
to enter the business. A truck dealer
in the city at the other end of the
line induced a man there to inaugu-
rate line on the same route. Shortly
there were four competitors on the
one line and when the business was
split four times there was not enough
money left to pay gasoline bills.
Commission Needed.
"Had a properly constituted COM
mission been established with the nec-
essary authority to grant franchises
and limited the route to two competi-
tors the enterprise would have been
success. With the franchise there
would naturally go some undertakings
on the part of the truck owner For
example, he would have to give
bond to deliver on schedule the same
as the parcel post contractor in any
city, with a penalty attached for fails
ure. Rates would be established by
this commission. A truck owner
should not be compelled to make rates
so low that he can't give good serv-
fee or yet, because of his franchise,
be allowed to charge exorbitant rates.
"The return loads bureau, which Is
another factor in conducting the rural
express system, is something else that
will need careful attention. The evil
Of all loads being return loads, will
be a menace to the rural express
system unless carefully guarded
against. 1t is the greatest system Of
transportation ever devised and as
such should be protected from its pit
falls"

When the question Of surface roads
