By the Assoclated Press. DETROIT, January 7.—Recounting Henry Ford's early struggles with an association of automobile manufac- turers which culminated in the famous Belden patent case of 1904, Willlam J. Cameron of the Ford Motor Co. said in an address last night that he saw an analogy between those early days and those in 1933 “under the codes.” Cameron told how Ford won a seven-year court battle with an asso- ciation of manufacturers who held licenses under the Selden patents for a “road engine” and who, after re- fusing Ford & license, sought to “threaten and punish not only any one who made a car without its license, but any dealer who sold one and any citizen who bought one.” “Nothing like that combination in restraint of trade has appeared in this country since, but something of the same general nature came very near appearing under the codes,” Cameron said. Cameron’s reference to “the codes” was one of the few expressions of opinion from officials of the Ford Co. on the N. R. A. The Ford Co., while asserting it is complying with all provisions of the automobile code, has refrained from becoming a sig- natory. Special on TODAY and urglars, during the night, removed every possible bit of equipment from the beer garden of Mike Del Zoppo, including two bars, plumbing fix- tures, stools, tables, a stove, crockery, draperies and 1,000 square feet of portable dance floor. zoogpo estimated the total loss was 'KAPLOWITZ | ‘THE COAT AND SUIT SPECIALTY SHOP { ON THIRTEENTH STREET BETWEEN EANDF DRESSES*SPORTSWEARSGOWNS | JANUARY SALE | FINE GOWNS | 1 Qs | i Were 29.50, 39.50, 59.50 | Afternoon Gowns Cocktail Gowns | | Semi-Formal Gowns Formal Gowns | A One-Time-a-Year Event | EXCLUSIVE SPECIALIZATION — Not Just Another Department.
