MOUNT CLEMENTS, Mich, May SS.--
When the trial of Henry Ford's million
dollar libel suit against the Chicago
Tribune was resumed in Judge James G..
fuckers Court to-day the Solomon News
company. codefendant with the Chicago
tribune Company. withdrew It's original
plea of lack of knowledge and innocent
distribution of the offending editorial
calling Mr. Ford an anarchist
The firm, capitalized at a small sum,
elected to stand on the plea Of justifica-
ton made by the Tribune
The Solomon News Company consists
OF Max and Sam Solomon OF Detroit and
Henry Solomon of Cleveland, all former
newsboys. and was. made defendant
merely to get service in Michigan. At
the beginning of the present trial Fords
counsel announced that the Solomon cen
Germ would not be held liable.
The court appeared perplexed at the
Solomons' attitude, and has not yet ruled
on the motion.
More Ford employees who left to go to
the border with the National Guard in
1915 testified that the Ford company
restored their positions after they re-
turned from service. This was the SUBJ
stance of the whole days testimony.
During the afternoon session an off,
cial OF the Ford educational and inves-
tigation department. explained the So
called profit sharing system of the Ford
Motor Company. Objections by the
counsel for the defence that the profit
sharing scheme was purely mythical
and that the men were paid n fixed sum
were overruled. 1t was, shown that a
skilled hborer profited considerably less
than an unskilled one. In 1914 the mini
mum wage was "a cents per hour and
the maximum 80 cents. In the distri-
button of profits the "a cent per hour
laborer profted 2Sh cents. while the
highly skilled men received an increase
OF but IN cents.
The duties Of the investigators were
explained. They ascertain the home
conditions OF every employee. and keep
a card index of how many there are in
the family. the employees debts, bank
accounts where his idle hours were spent
and similar information.
Mr.. Ford. II the case lasts that long,
expects to spend the summer here, al
though he has been little in court so far.
de has rented offices and moved his per-
sonal stan TO this city.
