COUNSEL POINTS
OUT LIES IN FORD
SUIT FOR LIBEL
Declares Five Statements in
Tribune Editorial Are
Falsehoods.

Mount Clemens, Mich, May 16.--
Henry Ford and his son, Edsel, sat
side by side in Judge fuckers court
today when the opening statement of
Mr.. Fords 81 100000 libel suit against
the Chicago Tribune was made by At
torney Alfred J. Murphy. Mr. Ford
said he expected to spend most of his
time here until verdict is. reached.
In his statement Mr.. Murphy asked
the jury to remember that at the
time of publication of the alleged Ii
bel, June %, 1916, the United States
had not entered the European war
and did not enter until April, 1917.
Mr., Murphy read the editorial
headed Ford is the anarchist"
The article said that Ford would
not hold open the places of his men
who responded to the call of their
country, nor would he pay their sal
aries while absent, nor care for their
families. Ford in the editorial was
referred to as an Ignorant idealist"
and one incapable of thought Con-
Guiding the reading, Mr.. Murphy con-
tinued:
Gentlemen we shall prove beyond
Tile SudUOW vi II uOuDJ tHdL tHCoC
statements are tissue Of falsehoOd
and libel. We shall in particular dis
prove the following five lies:
"Lie No. THAT guardsmen en-
ployed by Ford would lose their
places.
"Iie No. 2.--That no provision
would be made for their dependents.
ellie No. 3.--That their families
could get along as best they might. :
Lie No. 4.--That when they re-
turned they would have to apply for
their old jobs as strangers.
Lie no. 5.--That this rule applied
to the Ford plants everywhere"
He referred to Mr.. Ford as the
greatest humanitarian in the world"
The lawyer then took up the accu-
sation that guardsmen employed by
Ford would lose their places.
"On the contrary" he said, I'VE
shall show that these men were as
sured that their positions would be
held for them, and each one who
Joined the guard was given num-
bered disk to identify him when he
came back"
Referring to Lies Numbers and
81 Mr.. Murphy saidN they would be
rcfuted by members of families OF
guardsmen who had been given re-
lief by the Ford Motor company.
