HENRY FORD
IS
MAKES PECULIAR ANSWERS ON
WITNESS STAND.
In Moment of Petulance Admits He Is
An "Ignorant Idealist,' But
Reverses Statement.
(By Associated Press to Tba Observer)
MOUNT CLEMENS, Mich., July 1(1.
In a moment of petulance, Henry
Ford admitted on the witness stand
today that he is an ''ignorant idealist."
Ford subsequently reversed the state
ment, saying that he made it in order
to end the grilling of the attorney.
This was one of the alleged libelous
charges whf.ch the Chicago Tribune
made against him.
Attorney Eliott Stevenson, for the
Tribune, had been asking questions to
establish that Ford was Ignorant, Pur-
ng tho examinations Ford defined a
traitor as ''one who works against the
government." He defined an idealist
as "one who helps others make it
profit."'
Mr. Stevenson then said, "I guess,
Mr. Ford, we will let the question of
ignorant idealist rest right there."
Later, evidently with Arnold Ren-
nett vaguely in mind, Ford described
Benedict Arnold as " a writer."
FUNERAL OF MRS. FINE

sheriff of this county, is expected to
arrive from her home tin Los Anelc?,
Calif., to bo present at the funeral.
SOCIALISM CAUSES
WORRY IN JAPAN
TOKIO, June 15 (Associated Press
Correspondence.) The Increasing ten
dency of the Japanese workers to as
sort their Tights and to interest them
selves in socialism is causing leading
Japanese to study the means of meet
ing this labor problem. It is pointed
out that strikes are increasing and
that as Japanese labor has no organiz
ed voice, the strikes are liable to lead
to dangerous violence, as in the case
of the. rice Hots last year.
The Herald of Asia says that there
is a considerable element affected by
socialist theories, but that owing to
the severe repression jmposed by the
authorities there is no means of know
ing how far'socialism has spread. The
journal adds: "That the bacteria ex
ists here, there is no doubt It.js kept
under, so far, but it only smouldcrr,
ready to break out on occasion. If
socialism cannot legitimately Taise its
head", then it will try to do so illicitly,
and tiie result is Bolshevism and an
archy." "
The journal recommends immediate
and effective improvement of labor
conditions in line with the suggestion
of the league of nations, political and
fducational reform, the elimination of
i ourcaucrsuc memoos ana hub m
storation of the ideal of demJcy.

SONORA, MEXICO,
IS DRY IN SPELLS
(By Associated Press to The Observerl
DOUGLAS, Ariz., July Hi. Al
though "dry" by virtue of a proclama
tion by General P. Elias Calles, con
stitutional governor of the state, a
number of the municipalities of So
nora, Mexico, have hit upon a plan
resulting in swelling the public funds.
Special permission is obtained from
the state capital for the sale of beer
for one day or longer, the proceeds to
apply to public debts. Recently in
Canaries, the largest American mining
camp of the state, sales of beer havn
been held for the benefit of the public
school fund, there being no money in
the district treasury to pay the teach
crs.
Tho initial sale was so great a suc
cess that similar ones have been held
since for the same purpose, ns well as
to get funds to repair school houses,
mend roads and perform other neces
sary public work for which nothing
could be obtained from the treasury.
The state treasury is as badly de
pleted as are tho treasuries of the var
ious cities. School teachers in ller
mosillo have not been paid for three
months, according to Americans arriv
ing here recently. Tho same Ameri
cans told of a strike organized among
the city policemen in Junt as a result
of their pay being far in arrears. The
strike was ended when a portion of
the money was raised by public sub
scription.

EL PASO CLUB HAS
BANISHED LIQUOR
(Ur Associated Press to The Observer
EL TASO, Tox., July Hi. Tho El
Paso University club, first to ban the
club bar when it was organized and
long before prohibition was. even ser
iously discussed in Texas, has been tho
leader in offering a wholesome substi
tute for tho saloon as a social center.
The officers and directors of the
college club discovered that tho mem
bers enjoyed teas as much as did the
women's clubs. A series of allied teas
were given and, much to the surprise
of the entertainment committee, some
of tho early pioneer residents not only
attended and drank tea but asked for
second and third cups nnd became
what was called in tho friendly famil
iarity of tho club grill, "tea hounds.''
Taking this ns a suggestion, the
teas were made a permancnT feature of
the club's yearly entertainment pro
gram nnd were held on Sunday after
noons, when tea was served around tho
tables in tho grill, the men brought
their families and spent tho afternoon
sipping tea, smoking and listening to
a program of music nnd cntcrtuinint?
talks.
To make them popular with the club
memhers, these tens were made open
house affairs at which non-meniberH
might be Invited by tho members nnd
it was the weekly practico tu entertain
from i!00 to !I00 at the tens.
