FIGHT WITH FORD.
Compliance With N.R.A. May Now be Forced. United Press Assn.—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. WASHINGTON, April 7. The Controller General, Mr M’Carl, issued an important ruling to-day which make? compliance with the N.R.A. by the Ford Motor Company and its distributors compulsory, if it wishes to bid for Government contracts. Heretofore, according to a loose interpretation of the law, the Government must prove that Ford was violating the law to bar him from contracts. Now, thore wishing to do business with the Government must supply certificates of compliance with the Code regulations. The ruling opens the entire controversy between Ford and the Administrator, General Johnson, with the way now apparently open for the latter to force Ford into the N.R.A. or lose much business.
