thieves nor Of the stolen silk has been
obtained.
Louis Deacon, driver Of the van, and
his helper, John Werger, reached this
city late last night and told of the dar-

On the truck were two and a half
tons Of silk, being transferred from
W llkes-Barre, Penn, to this city. The
thieves, driving a high powered limou-
sine, held up the van in a lonely part
OF the road, compelled the two men on

them for ride about the country
while the others Of the gang were loot

returned to the van, securely locked in,

Mr.. Root, following Mr.. Guthrie, de-
clared that under the act before the

there was no occasion for the enforce

National Committee for Florida, call
err at headquarters, said all sign,
pointed to a sweep of the state by the
Republicans.
Thousands of men in Florida" said
Mr.. Anderson, "are now saying they
will never vote the Democratic ticket
again. The inefficiency of the admins
tration, the incompetency of the last
Congress, the obvious drift of leading
Democrats toward Socialism, waste OF
public money and the back breaking
taxation have brought about this dis
affection. There is scarcely such
thing left in Florida as the Democratic
party. 1t has degenerated into a band
of selfish politicians rallying for per-
sonal profit. The people are taxed like
poems, and the carpet-bag era looks like
the golden age compared to what Flor
ida suffers now. The big fact is that
the native stocks of Florida are not
Democratic in principle"

The committe declined by a vote Of
10 to to exempt light wines and beer
from the provisions of the wartime
prohibition enforcement act. This gives
a clear indication that no measure for
the repeal of the wartime prohibition
of beer and wine will be reported by
this committee before July /.
Those who voted for eXcmpting beer
and wine were Representatives Igoe,
of Missouri, who made the motion, and
Gard, Of Ohio, Democrats, and Rep

On a tie of 8 to 8, the committee
decided not to separate the wartime

was made by Representative Walsh, Of
Massachusetts, who insisted that Con-
gress would be placed in a ridiculous
position if it passed this omnibus bill
and the President within month or
six weeks rescinded wartime prohibi-
ton of wine and beer.
The effect would be to continue such
prohibition, even after the President
acted, unless Congress could be
brought to consider the repeal and
amendment of part of the enforce

beverages, the use of which is pro-

-"The Chicago Tribune" which is be-
ing sued by Henry Ford for 81, 900 900
because the newspaper called him an
anarchist, scored a point in tho trial
of the suit to-day when Judge Tucker
ruled that '"rhe Tribune" was privi-
legged to show Mr.. Ford to have been
an anarchist in any way it saw fit.
Regarding the matter of prepared
ness, which has figured SO largely in
the trial, thu judge said:
GLOW much or how little prepared
ness was actually necessary for the
adequate preservation of the lives and
property of our citizens on the bor-
der, or how much or how little pre-
paredness Henry Ford believed in are
not relevant matters, it seems to me.
but whether Henry Ford sought to in
terfere with or nullify the efforts of
the government to prepare to the ex-
tent it conceived to be necessary,
whether that preparedness was much
or little, adequate or inadequate, is
relevant.
"Whnthar what he did or said justi-
fed the criticism aimed at him in the
editorial in question viii be the main
question in the CASE"
The ruling came when F. E. Acker-
man, former reporter on New
York paper, was giving testimony re-
garding an interview he had with M1..
Ford, in which the automobile mann
facturer said the sinking of the I5usi-
