FORD MAY CLOSE
HIS CASE. TODAY

MT CLEMENS. Mich, June 5.-At
the opening OF court today It APPEAR
ed certain that Henry Ford's lawyers
in his libel suit against the Chicago
Tribune would finish their case today.
They were nearing the close yester-
day when they sought to introduce q
Tribune article headed can Idiotic
War" IS one Of their exhibits. deelar-
ing II was OF pro-German character.
The defense objected to its presen-
tation, saying that at the time the
article apreared-April 9, 1e16-they
were running q forum page contain
ing articles by special writer's on
many different subjects, Attorney
Kirkland, for the defense, said Il was
unfair for the plaintiff to choose this
one. and said he could read 5000 art
icles from the Tribune files which
were pro-ally.
Arguments on the deposition con-
tinued today.

Be Careful What You
Wash Your Hair With

Most soaps and PREPARED shampooS
contain too much aIkali, which Is very
Injurious. as IL dries the scalp and
makes the hair brittle.
The best thing TO use Is MuLifsd
eceoanut oil shampoo, for it il pure
and entirely greaseless. It's yeiy
cheap. and beats anything else all to
pieces. You can get this at any drug
store, and few ounces will last the
whole family for months.
Simply moisten the Lair with water
and rub it in. about a teaspoOnsul Il
all that is required. IL makes an
abundance OF r1cn. creamy Iather,

Senator Lawrence Y. Sherman,
chairman OF the District Committee,
said: II shall vote for the retention
of the half-and-hah plan. 1t is the
only equitable distribution Of expen-
ditures for the District.
Senator Sherman also Is a member
OF the Appropriation Committee.
. "The question will come up indt-
rectly in the Urgent deficiency BILL
said Senator Sheman, but will be
disposed Of definitely in the District
measure. It is my belief that a large
majority of the Senate Is in favor
Of retaining the present fiscal rsla-
lions until the whole question Of Dis
trict appropriations on a fair basis
to the District and the Government
has been worked out.
Should the question be brought up
as a separate matter before the Dis
trict Committee, Senator Sherman Is
confident that the half-apd<half plAp
will be retained. A majority Of tnc
committee is in favor Of the present
fiscal system.
Senator Jones Of Washington, one
of the stanchest friends of the Dis
trict, was emphatic in stating that
the Senate would stand by the Dis
trict, as IT always has done. He ex-
pressed the greatest confidence over
the outcome

Whether it comes up in the Senate
as a rider to the District appropria-
ton bill or as a separate matter al
together. the half-and-half fiscal re-
lations between the District and Fed
eral Government will be preserved.
This was the consensus of opinion
expressed today by members Of the
Senate Appropriations Committee and
the District committee, who de-
clared that sthe Senate would do as
it always has done, and restore the
half and-half' plan of appropria-
tons
THE action of the House in killing
the .half-and-half plan," said Senator
smoot Of the Appropriations Com
mittee, means that the question will
be fought out again between the two

approve the half-and-half plan. This
was Senator Capper, the new Pro-
gressive from Kansas, who also is q
member of the District Committee.

said today he would vote to retain
