SENATOR Sherman
RAPS HENRY FORD
Reference to NeWberry Trial
and Other Matters Brings
Bitter Debate.

An attack upon Henry Ford by Sen
ator Sherman of Illinois in the Senate
yesterday led to a bitter debate over
the Newberry election case now being
tried in Michigan. The Illinois senator
charged that Ford's attorneys were as
sisting the government in the prosecu,
ton of criminal indictments at Grand
Rapids and that literally hundreds OF
E'ord's private agents were sWarnlhs
about the trial, scrutinizing every nook
within 100 miles of the courtroom.
Senator Sherman insisted that the
federal government had become merely
an appendage of Henry Ford. Dlgress-
ing from the discussion of Ford. Senator
Sherman described the Red Cross as an
institution having the support OF gov
ernmental authority much as henry
Ford has that support He said that the
organization was becoming TOO auto
cratic
Refers to Van Schaick Nomination.
The Senate in a few days. said Sena-
tor Sherman, will have an opportunity
to pass upon the nomination of DIR. Van
Schaick, jr., as District Commissioner,
who acted an emissary of the Red
Cross in Belgium and France during the
war. Senator Sherman insisted that
according to testimony before the DIS.
trict committee DIR. Van Schaick acted
or otherwise, who wished to see the bat
tlefields.
This is what part of the Red
Cross funds were used for" said Sen
ator Sherman. Il venture to say that
40 per cent of every dollar contrib
uted to the Red Cross has been alb
sorbed in salaries and the travelling
expenses of the representative of the
organization. OF course. the Red
Cross has done a world of good, but
it is unregulated. Somebody should
see where the money goes. ANY one
who criticises the Red Cross today is
an outcast in the eyes of those who
obtain their livelihood as employees Of
the organization. Some day the great
contributing public will rise up and
demand to know how the money is
spent"
Senator Stanley Replies.
Senator Stanley democrat. Ken
lucky. replying to Senator Sherman,
declared the Illinois senator had vio-
lated every propriety by some or his
references This brought a protest
from. Senator Townsend. republican.
Michigan, who said the facts in the
Newberry case would be disclosed
during the trial and that senators
should refrain from any discussion
of it.
Senator Walcott, democrat, Della
ware, said Senator Sherman had made
the first reference to the case and
that throughout his talk had been
addressing "a jury in Michigan"
Such an address, If rendered in Michi-
gan. he said, would render the sena-
tor from Illinois in contempt Of court
and liable to penitentiary imprison-
ment."
Ballot Recount Committee to Meet.
While the debate was running its
course Senator Watson, republican. Of
Indiana, called a meeting for Monday
of the subcommittee appointed tore
count the ballots in the contested
election. 1t was indicated, however,
that the subcommittee probably
would postpone its task until the trial
of Senator Newberry and his cam
paign workers now in progress at
Grand Rapids was finished.

Order and Law

These words often linked together, but the things they stand for by always the There be order without law law, with very little order. The word law itself is fusing. In sense it means a command hibition imposed by god king-or perhaps. by a sovereign people, with strength enough force its will by penalties, death, fine mprison- ment. This kind of law is familiar children and when they grow it does often them that the word law mean anything else.

Tt is essentially true of the mind that it grows on what it feeds. Youth l is the time when the mind and mem ory are most sensitive. most retentive. and most plastic. It is especially inn portant. therefore, to begin the proper training of the mind at an early age. It is as difficult to dislodge cumber- some, useless things from the mind as 1t is to acquire new and better supplies of knowledge. What was done badly has to be undone-often at consider able cost. As with most worth while calls for the paying of a price Any memory must be prepared to pay the cost. He must be prepared to forego an endless round of even harmless pleasures. He must not hope to shine continually and conspicuously in so- clal or society circles during his forma = tive years. He must study while others play. His reading must be limited very largely to books and magazines and papers which will help him to ac- quire facts and a better understanding of whatever business or subject he is determined to master. He must util- ize most of his spare time and not idle it away
 For example, I have tried to learn all I could about the steel business in it's mining, manufacturing, selling and transportation branches; but to enable me to carry business information in my head, I have not attempted to re- tain in my mind minute detailed data about politics or baseball

DEAD FISH

In that fascinating story of an earl iei, simpler period of American life The Light in the Clearing Irving Bacheller puts into the mouth of his homely countryside philosopher the expression. "A dead fish can swim down stream"
 It is a pithy saying and condenses for the boy who is starting in life for himself q great principle of success What anyone can do without effort is not going to lead to success of any kind. That is so self evident a max i'm that 1t finds illustration in the woodland stream. The fish who wants to go upstream has to be alive. has to be making an effort all the time man is not diffeent. If he feels the effort cease and the current no longer makes him work. he has his warning. He is going down stream.-Mi1wauke
