Clemens, Mich., Aug. 15.—A jury at 8 o'clock last night awarded Henry Ford 6 cents damages against | the /Chicago Tribune for calling him | an anarchist. It had been out ten hours. Orvy Hulett, foreman of the jury, sald they took ‘“nine ballots that I can remember,” the first one, accord- ing to Leonard Measel, another juror, nding 8 to 4 in vor of awarding r. Ford seme damages “Does the award of 6 cents about express the feelings of the as to the case?” Mr. Hulett was asked. “It just about does. That expresses our judgment.” Alfred J. Murphy, allorney for Mr. Ford, said: “The important issue has been de- Ih‘rlx\inp‘d favorably to the plaintiff, He has been vindicated. Money dam- ages were entirely subordinate and were not sought by Mr. Ford. He stands not only vindicated but his at- titude as an American citizen has been justified. His friends are entirely isfied Weymouth Kirkland of counsel for the Chicago Tribune, said: “We consider it a victory for the reason that Attorne Fred Lueking, in closing for Mr. Ford, stated that anything less than substantial dam- ages would be a defeat for his client."” Mr. Ford was not in court. 'The Capt. Joseph Medill Patterson, one of the publishers. Judge James G. Tucker in his charge to the jury held that a news- paper nas ro greater privileges in making comment than has an indi- vidual. The judge said that plaintiff's charges of pro-Germanism against the Tribune and of a selfish interest in advocating intervention in Mexico had not been proved and the jury peed not consider it. He told the Jurors: “The editorial as it appeared in the paper and standing by itself without explanation, is libelous, or, in legal terms, libelous per se (of itself). “The defendant Chicago Tribune ad- mits the publication, and insists that it was true, and therefore justified; and that even if not true, it was fair comment upon a matter of public interest, either of which defenses are sufficient if proved.” The tremendcus legal costs of the Ford trial set a record for expenses in ratio to the monetary damages ob tained. The costs to the Chicago Tri- bune are estimated at $250,000, which does not include the court costs which e Tribune must pay. These include pay of jurors, judge, court officials and sheriff for four months. The Ford expenses are ostimated at another $250,000, making a total $500,000 for the four months. The testimony and arguments extended over three months and one month was consumed in the preliminaries.

London, Aug. 15—Managers of Lon- don’s moving picture theaters are up In arms against an American. film producing firm which has acquired sites for motion picture theaters in London. Their agitation reached the house of commons today when a member asked the president of the board of trade whether the govern- ment was doing anything to stop it. He was told that it did not seem to be a matter in which the government could interfere and called the mem- bers’ attention to the fact that im- ported films are subject to. dygy. London picture theater managers assert that they have been good cus- tomers of the producing company and that the latter should not now plan to- compete with them on a large scale. —_— e ——— LESS MEAT IF-BACK AND KIDNEYS HURT Take a Glas§ of Salts to Flush Kid- neys if Bladder Bothers You— Drink Lots of wWater.
