By MARK SI.Xl.IVAY WASHINGTON. July 5. The political, intentions of Henry Ford are a subject of increasingly serious speculation. Nothing definite is known. When the most astute political scouts, inspired by political interest or private curiosity, try to find out what Mr. Ford is going to do. they arc baffled. They come back with nothing tangible, but with a variety ot sneculation and surmise which in

cludes some disturbing rumors. ' One of the rumors is that it is not as a Democrat but as a Republican that Mr. Ford will figure in the presidential situation. This guess is accompanied by intimations that Mr. Ford is really a Republican. Just what party Mr. Ford voted within the presidential elections of the past 15 or 20 years is a subject about which many political strategists would like to have information. Whether Mr. Ford personally regards himself as a Republican or not. the intimation is made that the wife and son regard themsedves as Republicans, and deplore the idea of Mr. Ford having anything to do with the Democratic party. Idea Far-Fetched Henrv Ford as a possibility for the

Renublican nomination for president

would .seem far-fetched indeed, and yet it is not improbable that the Republicans who gave the senatorial nomination to Frazier in North Dakota last week and the Republicans who gave the senatorial nomination to Brookhart In Iowa last month would be equally willing and likely to give a presidential nomination to Henry Ford. The only question is whether , there are enough Republican who think this way in the larger states in the east like Pennsylvania. The assumption that Mr. Ford would get the Republican nomination for the

PRESIDENT'S ADDRESS TAKEN AS STAND FOR STRICT PROHIBITION

By HERBERT W. WALKER (United Press Correspondent) MARION, Ohio, July 6. President Harding has made it plin that strict enforcement of the prohibition amendment and the Volstead law is the official position of his administration. He has also rather clearly indicated that Secretary of War Weeks' asser

tion that the Volstead law is the

cause of much unrest in the country today and his advocacy of its modification does not represent the attitude of the administration.

These were the views of those close to the president today following the action of the president here yesterday in going out of his way somewhat to restate his official position on prohibition. The view here was that the president felt it necessary to make the dry

declaration because of reports of a growing impression in the strong prohibition states of the middle- west that

the administration was not "bone dry. Origin of Reports

These reports are said to have

sprung up following the Weeks' speeches and the ruling of the shipping board that liquor can be sold on American ships outside the three-mile zone.

Harding's statement, it was said, should not be considered a slap at Secretary of War Weeks, because the president believes cabinet officers should be allowed to ex'press their opinions without any dictation on his part. But believing as he stated that only a-minority of the people are opposed to prohibition, he desired to set the country right as to the administration's real position. The "eighteenth amendment " he said, denies to a minority, a fancied sense of personal libertyy, but the

amendment is the will of America and ! other points

SHOP STRIKERS GOING ALONE IN RAIL WALKOUT 11 onrlc Mficrona Q.r

pathy and Congratulation to Maintenance of Way WorkersToday Turning Point. MEN ARE DRIFTING BACK

'By Associated Press) " CHICAGO,' July 5 Striking railroad shop men who walked out in answer to the nation wide call from headquarters of the six shop craft unions Saturday, were reported drifting back to work today in uncertain numbers. Today is considered the turning point in the strike of from 350,000 to 400,000 workers, who responded generally to the call last Saturday. Railroad officials insisted that many of the workers quit from a desire to have a holiday over the Fourth of July. Local union reports to the office of B. M. Jewell, head of the shopmen, reiterated the assertion that the strike was 100 per cent effective at all points. .Reports that members of the Maintenance of Way men, respite the action of the union heads to postpone the strike for the present, axe Joining the walkout. Such reports reaching here were confirmed. Freight handlers, stationery firemen and engineers, and oilers were joining the ranks of the shopmen at many points, although fully as many were

Ford is said to be more popular among the Democratic voters of the southern states than any northern man since the Civil war. Radical Appeal. To those who compose the radical element of the Democratic party Ford provides the picture of man who has accomplished the unique thing aimed at all dreamers, namely to give the highest wages to the worker and at the same time make the' lowest price to the customer. When Mr. Ford says he could do the same thing with the railroads of the country if he had a chance, it sounds alluring.

It is observed that the circulars advertising Ford cars and Ford tractors, which find their way into the hands of nearly everybody in the country, include a full page portrait of Mr. Ford himself, a portrait taken in a mood of benevolence and giving an impression of studied simplicity which looks very much like a man who would like to make the country think agreeably of him.

(Special to the Palladium) CAMBRIDGE CITY, July 5. Damage of between $300 and $400, fully covered by insurance, was caused when fire broke out at 1 o'clock Tuesday afternoon In the residence of A. C.

The fire was first seen by a son of

Mr. Golay when he w-as out on the lawn near the house. After the alarm had been given neighbors gathered and helped carry out the furniture. The fire is thought to have started from a smoldering fire cracker or from defective wiring.
