Mr.. Ford Will Appear in Court.

Interest in the case was intensified
by the statement of counsel for Mr.
Ford that the Detroit manufacturer
would be in court today and probably
would attend other sessions Mr.
Ford arrived before the hearing be-
gan. He was told by Alfred Lucking,
one of his attorneys, that it would be
some time before the jury panel was
brought in and that he would not be
needed.

HENRY FORD'S SUIT
FOR MILLION OPENS
Case Against Chicago Trib-
une Begins at Mount
Clemens, Mich.

MOUNT CLEMENS, Mich, May H.
One of the most noteworthy libel
suits in the history of American juris-
prudence, that of Henry Ford versus
the Chicago Daily Tribune, for $1,000
GOO, opened today before Circuit Judge
James G. Tucker here. With most of
the preliminary battles already
fought and decided in Illinois and
Detroit courts, it is anticipated the
case will come to trial with little de-
lay. The suit has already been in the
courts two and half years.
The suit opened here with a con-
ference of the lawyers with Judge
James G. Tucker as to hours Of work
and other details of the daily program
to be followed Decision as to court
hours was left to Judge Tucker
Counsel for the Solomon News Com
pany, newspaper distributor, which for
technical reasons was made so-de-
PENDANTS in the suit. gave notice of a
motion for change of plea. Judge
Tucker announced he would hear it
this afternoon. After the conference
with the lawyers adjournment was
taken until 2 o'clock this afternoon.
Broadly. the defense is that the al
legged libelous statements of which
an incident Of the Trihune's fight for
preparedness, to which it devoted
hundreds of columns, and that Mr..
Ford. by reason of his wealth and his
arguments against preparedness, was
in fact a public character and as such
proper person for comment
The Ford brief insists, and quotes
many court decisions to support the
contention, that the legal bounds of
the case should confine it entirely to
considering whether the Tribune ut
tered libel when. it called him an
anarchist. The case has to do only
with the alleged libelous article,
standing by itself, the brief holds.

May Shorten Trial.

Should the court sustain the Ford
contention. 1t would. it is said, greatly
shorten the trial. The preliminary
issue. If the ruling of the court
favors the Tribune the jury will, it
is predicted, listen for weeks to the
most exhaustive analysis Of the sub
jects of preparedness and non-pre-
paredness in the history of the coun-
try.
Counsel for the Tribune are Warren
s. Stone, Weymouth Kirkland. Elliott
G. Stevenson, Thomas G. Long, Horace
Tenney, Howard Ellis and William
Hosner. For Mr.. Ford there are AL
