SOLDIERS TESTIFY THEY
RECEIVED OLD OR BETTER
JOBS BACK BY FORD

Mount Clemens, Mich, May 2s.-1n
Judge fuckers court today where
Henry Ford, through his lawyers. is
trying to convince a farmer jury
that the Chicago Tribune should
pay him 100000 for an alleged Ii
belous attack, the testimony intro
duced by the plaintiff was sufficiently
varied to overcome the drowsy ten
dency Of a warm spring day.
These incidents included the OBJ
lection Of Attorney Elliott G. Stew
enson Of counsel for the Tribune, to
the term ''profit-sharing" in connec-
ton with the Ford payroll; the ap-
pearance of Max and Sam Solomon,
newspaper distributors at Detroit,
who are co-defendants with the Tri-
bune; withdrawal Of the Solomon
plea that they were ignorant that
they were distributing the allege Ii
belous editorial in the Tribune Of
June %, 1916; the appearance off q
witness who earned more money in
the army than with the Ford Mo-
tor Co.. and the testimony Of a for
mer soldier whose wife received aid
from the Ford company while he
was in Mexican service. Seven Ford
employees who served with the Ma
tional Guard on the Rio Grande tes-
titled. All had done patrol duty at
Ell Paso, Tex, and the interpretations
put on the quiet which prevailed at
that period in the Ell Paso district
by opposing counsel caused some
amusement.
There was no trouble at Ell Paso
while you were there" suggested
counsel for the plaintiff, who in 1916
was opposing the sending of soldiers
to the border as uncalled for.
There was not likely to be any
trouble with six thousand of you
chaps on duty there?" insinuated
counsel for the Tribune, a part of
whose defense is that a heavy mobil-
ization was necessary. Both lawyers
got the answers they desired.
The former soldiers all testified
that their membership in the Guard
and their absence on the border re-
suited in no discrimination against
them at the Ford plant. All said
they were given their old places or
better ones when they returned. save
in the case of one who was still un-
dergoing treatment for a wound re-
ceived in France and another who
was helping his father on the home
farm at Harrison, Mich. The latter
was Captain George c. Sheffield, who
had received IS a day in the Ford ad-
vertising department, while his pay
as first lieutenant and later as a
captain in the army was at it's low
est $40 month more than in his civ
ilian job. Captain Sheffield said that
he had been assured of re-instate-
ment at the Ford plant when he
wanted it and the wounded man.
Truman O'Brien said he had a sim
liar assurance. This testimony was
designed to refute. the allegation in
the alleged libel that Ford had said
he wound not reinstate men who
went to war.
