Washington, July 25.-Plans Of
democratic members of the house war
investigating committee report, CEN
suring the war department for delay
ing sale of surplus foodstuffs and ask
ing adoption of policy of immediate
distribution, were blocked today by re-
publican committeeman.
By a strict party vote the demo.
Gratis request for a reopening of hear
ings on the food stock was denied
The democratic members had an
nOunced they would attempt to dis
prove statements contained in the re-
port. Simultaneous with their failure
and the direction by the republican
members that rule be asked for i'm
mediate house consideration of the
resolution calling for policy of sale
at once to the consuming public, the
democrats decided to submit a minori-
ty report challenging the statements
of the republicans.
Will Sell to Consumers.
Because OF prospective argument of
democrats that a change in policy of
sale would result in the foodstuffs fall
ing into the hands of spectators, the
republican committeeman today
amended their resolution so as to re-
quest tho sales TO hc mad directly 0
the consumers by the government.
Final committee action today fol-
lowed a long executive session, at
which the democratic members in ask
ing the reopenng of hearings submit
ted a list of additional witnesses, in
cluding Secretary Baker and other war
t,1.
democrats decided to include state
ments of the suggested witnesses in
their minority report. Conferences
had previously been held by the DEM
ocratic members headed by Repre-
sentative Flood, of Virginia, with sew
eral war department officials includ-
ing Secretary Baker, who denied it
was his policy to withhold the food
stuffs from the domestic market and
to protect the intrests from which
these products had been purchased"
as charged in the majority report
Says Interests Control.
Chairman Graham, after the COM
tee meeting asserted that such a pol
icy existed, and that subsequent re-
ports on other subjects would be made
by the committee to prove the policy S
application to various commodities as
well as food. He said that 'the same
private control of the government con-
tnues as was exercised by the council
of national defense in framing war
policies"
Mr. Floods eloquence with war de-
partment officials today led him to
challenge the majority report in a. let
ter which was Concurred in by the
other democrats in asking a reopening
of the hearings. The letter asserted
the reports statement that no sur
plus of foodstIff was declared for six
months was erroneous, for there had
been some sales before May. 1t also
challenged the statement that the food
was permitted to deteriorate during
this time.

BISHOP STARTLES
PEOPLE IN COURT
At FORD TRIAL
Says Jesus Was Greatest User
Of HaIf-Truths For Rhetor-
iCaI Effect Thus Explains
Ford'S Words,


Mount Clemens. Mich. July 25.---An
expert on theology was placed on the
stand today in the Henry Ford-Chi-
cago Tribune libel suit as a counter
balance to Professor Reeves of the
University of Michigan, who a few
weeks ago testified for the Tribune as
an expert on political science.
TOday's witness was Bishop Charles
D. williams of Detroit head of the
eastern Michigan diocese of the Prot
estant Episcopal church. and he
startled his hearers by stating that
Jesus Christ was a great user Of half
truths for rhetorical effect.
Judge Tucker said today he expect
ed the hearing would be finished and
a verdict returned the latter part Ot
the first week in August.
The appearance of Bishop Williams
in behalf of the plaintiff was to show
that while Professor Reeves had
found that many of Mr. Ford's ut
terances agreed in sentiment with the
writings of well recognized anar-
chists these views were not peculiar
to anarchism.
Not Exactly Anarchy.
A statment attributed to Mr.. Ford
that he would abolish the American
army and navy (Which Mr.. Ford as a
witness greatly qualified, was read
to Bishop Williams and he was asked
if it was anarchistic.
Pretty strong language, but I have
heard the same from others" said
the witness.
Mr.. Lucking was allowed to adduce
what the witness meant By strong
language"
Il think It IS rhetorical language
such as orators use. When you state
half truth you state it strongly in
order to get it over"
"Our Lord was the greatest example
Of stating half truths with tremen-
dous strength" the witness con-
tinued.
Use of Halt Truths.
"It comes to my mind where our
Lord said once: He that hateth not
his father and his mother and his
brother and his sister and his kins-
man. he cannot be my disciple That
would show that He taught hatred.
whereas He was the greatest promoter
of filal love. But He was making n
rhetorical statement. to show that
natural affections must not stand be-
tween man and his loyalty to truth
and righteousness
Attorney Elliott G. Stevenson.
senior counsel for the Tribune. could
not prevail upon the bishop to admit
that anarchy reigned in Mexico, al
though the lawyer related many incl
dents of serious disorders in that
country.
Witness contcnded that although
propaganda for which Mr., Ford was
responsible may have indirectly pro
NOTED a state of disorder IN parts of
Mexico. the manufacturer could not
therefore be stigmatized as an anar-
chist unless It was his deliberate OBJ
ject to promote anarchy.

Summary OF AnpcaI.

Il. Because these treaties attempt
to deal with matters whose proper
determination is entirely a right Of
the peace conference.
"2. Because they Contravenc the
allied formula of justice and princi-
pies now serving as the guiding rules
Of the peace conference,
"3. Because specifically they vlo-
late the territorial integrity and polit-
ical independence Of China as guar
anteed in the series of conventions
and agreements concluded by Great
Britain, France, Russia and the Unit
ed States with Japan.
%, Because they were negotiated
in circumstances of intimidation and
concluded under the duress of the
Japanese ultimatum of May 7. 1915.
IS. Because they are lacking in
finality, being so regarded by Japan,
who sought to make them final by
negotiating before China was suffered
to enter the war a set of secret agree
ments at variance with the principles
accepted by the belligerents as the
basis of the peace settlement"
Kept Out by Japan.
The petition declared that except
for the attitude of Japan, China
would have joined the allies In Au-
gust, 1914, or at least by November,
1915, instead of remaining out until
February, 1917. 1t also declares that
if Japanese Interference had not kept
China out of the war until Kiao Chow
had been captured the leased terri
tory of K!ao Chow would have been
directly restored to China as one Of
the states associated to win the war
against the central powers"
The Chinese delegates also charged
the japanese had arranged a secret
treaty with Russia for a military al
lance against the political domina-
ton of China by any third power but
failing to provide for such domination
by either Japan. Russia or both Of
them.

The rush of the busy season in
harvesting the bountiful fruit cror
is near an end. For the past two
months every available person has
| had the opportunity of earning good
wages and at the same time render
the grower valuable assistance In
saving his crop. During this time II
has been quite noticeable that not
an idle woman could be found, and
many who for two long months have
neglected their own household and
duties at home to do their bit In
earning few honest dollars for
winter clothing and other necessities
and to do what they could to gather
in the fruit in season. Many even
went into the orchards in all kinds
of weather and did a mans work
without complaining while dozens Of
big two-fisted shirky men could be
seen hanging around on the street
looking for work and praying to God
that no Job would show up. 1t is just
this class of men who are agitating
strikes, high wages and short hours
and causing SO much trouble thru
out the country. What would these
men think to see bunch of women
congregate in loafing places and on
the street corners squirting tobacco
Juice at crack in the sidewalk, and
chewing the rag because they were
only offered the paltry sum of five
dollars a day and not steady Job
at that If the women were only
physically able to do all the work of
men, there would be no coal strikes
or any other strike-only one swipe
at the man who comes home at night
without a cent in his pocket and
beefing because the town is dead
and he can't get job.

BUILDING STONES

In one of the large manufacturing
establishments of the United States
thousands upon thousands of grind
stones Of every size, from small one
up to great ones several feet in dia
meter, are used. AS these stones weal
out they are replaced by new ones
and since there is no further use fol
them in the shops they are carried
out of the way. In many such estab
lishments the custom is to let the
worn-out grindstones lie in heaI
or else to sell them to the highest
bidder, but in this place another use
IL made of them
The plot of ground on which the
establishment is built is very large
stone wall. Every stone is cut for its
particular place in the wall, and the
structure protects the plant and
serves to beautify the establishment
by its symmetry and grace The re-
markable thing about the wall is that
every one of the many thousands
OF stones of which it is built is a
grindstone that was worn out in the
shops. 1t did its work as a grindstone
and then, having given its best in
that service, it was given place of
honor and usefulness in the perma-
nent wall.
What lesson that is to US who

God is accomplishing many great

life of sacrifice and hand service.
