FORD MADE HIS
JEW CVERTuRES
WITHOUT ADVICE
None of Manufacturers
Legal Talent Had Hand
in Apology

DETROIT. Mich, July 9, (H0- Indi-
cations that Henry Ford did his own
talking" and played his own hand, !"
in making his peace with the Jewish
people were given added weight to-
day with further evidence that none
of the army of regular Ford legal tai
ent participated in the overtureS that
led to the automobile manufacturers
apology for anti-Jewish writings in
his Dearborn Independent.
In disavowing these writings Mr.
Ford explained that the wide scope OF
his activities had made it impossible
for him to devote his personal atten-
ton to the conduct and policies OF his
publications and that he was obliged
to delegate their management to
Others
In negotiating with Jewish leaders
for a public reputation of the hostile
articles, however, Mr.. Ford appears
not only to have taken firm hold
on himself, but to have ignored the
attorneys who represented him in the
libel action of Aaron Sapiro, one of
the outgrowths of the writings. T.
appeared also that Mr.. FOrd had 1g-
nored W. j. Cameron, editor OF the
independent. Mr.. Cameron on the wit
ness stand in the Sapiro suit assumed
sole responsibility for the writings in
the Ford periodical saying that Mr..
Ford declined to be drawn into a dis
cussion with him of editorial policies.
MI. Cameron was back at his desk
today. Yesterday immediately after
publication of the Ford reputation he
accompanied Henry and Edsel Ford
on an inspection" over the DetroitTo-
ledo and Ironton railroad. Since then
Mr.. Ford has not been available to
interviewers and Mr.. Cameron has
sent out word that he "has noJhIng to
say"
While the attorneys who represented
Mr.. Ford in the Sapiro suit which end
ed in a mistrial renewed their state
ments htat to the best of their know
ledge the case would come UP for re-
trial as scheduled September II, Will
lam Henry Gallagher, chief of Mr.
Sapiro's counsel, stood by his state
ment of yesterday that he confident
ly expects" a satisfactory settlement
out of court. 1t was also disclosed thai
Walter F.. Lynch, of Chicago, o law
associate of Mr.. Sapiro, who Mr.. Gal
/ lagher said had figured in the peace
! negotiations for more than two weeks
past still was in Detorit.

R. R. OFFICIALS
TELL COOLIDGE
BIG CROP sure
President Passes Peaceful
Day in Summer White
House Grounds

RAPID CITY, S. D., July 3, P)--A
group of railroad officials called al
the summer White House todG1 dur
ing a regular Inspection of their pro-
perties in this territory and gave
President Coolidge a highly encourag'
ing report on rniddlewestern cror
prospects
Railroads are massing their force.
/ for the movement of a bumper crop
they told Mr.. Coolidge, which ir
their, opinion will break all records. L
unforeseen contingencies fail to inter
Vene, they considered that business
would be accelerated generally but
they added that while business is not
so brisk now, no artificial stimulation
or legislation was necessary to aid il
holding it's own.
The officials were Hale Holden
president and Charles E. Perkins. gen
eral manager of the Chicago, Burling-
ton and Quincy, and Howard Elliott
chairman of the board of the North
Srn Pacific railroad. The two latter
officials are directors in the Burling-
ton which is controlled by the North
ern Pacific and Great Northern lines
The enthusiastic reports on croI
conditions was listened to attentively
by the President who sat with his
guests for a half hour on the front
porch of the lodge.
"I have never seen crops looking SO
well west of the Missouri river" Mr.
Holden said 1.-THE Lord has certainly
smiled on the west this year. We are
CTR in lic
ticularly in Nebraska to handle what
seems certain to be a record crop
Grains especially are looking well.
The Burlington officials came into
the Black Hills today primarily en- an
inspection trip and while there was
some thought of further development
of railroad and hotel facilities in this
immediate vicinity, none would make
a forecast in this connection.
Likewise the party was silent on the
proposal for a merger of the Great
Northern and the Northern Pacific
an application for which has beer
filed with the interstate commerce
commission.
/. Mr.. Coolidge passed a quiet day. He
did not come down from the hills tC
his desk in the Rapid City high school,
but walked around the summer White
House preserve and spent considerable
time on the spacious front porch of the
game lodge, reading, resting anc
looking out over the countryside.
During the day, Dakota Clyde
Jones, the Presidents riding guide
drew up with Kit, seven year ole
mare and Mr.. Coolidge mounted for {
short ride into the fastnesses of tht
mountains. He asked Dakota Clyde
numerous questions about this gentle
mare and listened attentively to th'

Resolution Attacking
President Was Beaten
By Anti ti-Saloon League

NEW YORK, July 9 R) The
resolution to issue g, proclamation
charging President Coolidge with
misfeasance, voted on by the execu-
tive committee of the Anti-Saioon
league and defeated at its meeting
in November, 1925, was one of the
papers ilnpounded by the Reed SEN
atorial investigation committee, Or
vile S. Poland, counsel for the New
York Anti-Saloon league, stated to-
night.
Poland, when informed of the pub
1ication of the resolution, said that
he knew of the existence OF such a
paper and supposed that some men,
ber of the Reed committee had given
it out for publication.
Although he was not at the Chi
cago meeting, Mr.. Poland said, he
was of the opinion that two or three
speeches we're made outlining con-
ditions with respect to prohibition
enforcement The resolution in ques-
ton was then drawn up, but tabled
with the understanding that it was
to be taken up at the next meeting

John Drev, Veteran
Actor, ANSWERS Last
Curtain Call of Life

SAN FRANCISCO, July 9, H)-John
Drew answered life's curtain call to-
day.
John Drew, to whom Americans
paid tribute as the dean of actors"
died at hospital here today after a
courageous thirty nine day fight
against arthritis, rheumatic lever and
septic poisons that gradually sapped
his vitality. He was conscious through
it all to within an hour OF his GeaGh
and his passing was described as
painless as in Sleep"
Brief, simple services were held in
the secluded little cypress lawn ceme-
terry chapel here a few hours after
Mr.. Drew's death because, it was eX-
planned, Mrs. Louise DeVereaux, the
actors daughter, was on the verge OF
collapse after her long vigil at the
bedside of her father. The services were
attended only by three relatives who
were with Mr. Drew when dea5h came
Mrs. Deveraux, her husband, Jack
DevereauX and John Barrymore OF
Hollywood, the actors nephew.
A short message of tribute and con-
dolence was given by DR.. Webster w
Jennings of the st. Luke's Episcopal
church of San Francisco.
After the services the body waS Gre
mated and the ashes will be taken to
New York by Mr.. and Mrs. Deveraux
early next week. There memorial
services will be held and a crypt IN
Philadelphia will be the final resting
place OF the urn.
"This is but another act and am
playing my part" Mr., Drew said dur
ing the early stages of his illness
"Now, doctor, I would like some
strawberries and cream today"
1t was this cheerfulness, this unWlll-
ingness to relinquish "his part" thai
amazed DR.. Lawrence H. Hoffman, one
OF the attending physicians.
"In my thirty years of practlce,
have never attended such q remarkable
patient" the physician said. Tho or
dinary person would undoubtedly have
succumbed to the first of the series o.

Of LORD CECIL
Gibson Forces Withdrawal
of Remark on Threat of
Leaving
TENSION HIGH
Fear Conference May Col
l2,25c Monday Unless Ten
sion Relieved

GENEVA, Switzerland, July 9 tF--
The tri-partite naval conference al
most broke up today. Reliable in
formation concerning the happenings
at a secret session of the executive
committee this morning has it that
Lord Cecil went so far in the course
of the tunultous discussion of the
cruiser problem as to bang his fist
on the table and exclaim: This is
perfect nonsense"
Lord Cecil exploded in this after
Rear Admiral Hilary P. Jones, or
the American delegation, had quietly
delivered an explanation OF the
American proposal concerning cruis-
ers. Hugh S. Gibson, head of the
delegation. who already had listened
to s. reproach made at an earlier
session by Cecil, is understood to
have risen to his feet at this point
and to have declared with firmness
that unless Lord Cecil Withdrew this
remark, Mr.. Gibson would be obliged
to leave. Cecil withdrew it.
An earlier incident Of the hectic
session was furnished also by LORD
Cecil who is reported to have as
serted with some heat that the
Americans were always unreasonable
because they always wanted to have
their way.
Vice Admiral Field Of the British
delegation also is understood to
have contributed to the discord be-
tween "the high conflicting parties
when. after the delivery of an Amer
ican argument that cruisers neces-
sarily must be measured by total
tonnage. he exclaimed: Total tom
mage? Why, it means nothing more
to the average mind than mere gai-
Ions"
Such were the outstanding Incl
dents of the meeting, which only
served to increase the conviction
among the participants and observ-
erS that thing S were going very
badly in the three power disarna-
ment conference.
MI. Gibson insisted that nothing
tangible could be reached unless the
delegates "could break the back" or
the cruiser difficulty. and he made
it clear that anything the British
desired to lay down in warShips or
Uu41QAAlS plOSA uAAAo hlANov AACNO0oeSA AAV
be translated into terms Of total
tonnage.
At the end of the session the
British tried to drive home pro-
posal that the projected naval treaty
should be confined to building pro-
grams in cruisers, instead OF being
concerned with warships already in
existence, and returned to their old
demand that a. definite agreement
be reached on the number OF 10000
ton cruisers which the United States,
Great Britain and Japan would be
permitted to possess.
This did not harmoni2e with the
American idea of the treaty, because
the American delegation, like tI1s
Japanese delegation wants to get a
definite limit on total tonnage as the
only possible logical, common sense
arrangement. Nevertheless this Britt
ish suggestion is being studied as
sidiously Doth by the experts and the
plenipotentiaries
