FORD AND SAP|RO
 ARGUMENTS HEARD
Million Dollar Suit Scheduled for
 Hearing Soon

Detroit, Mich, March II (UPl- With the date of trial only three days distant, opposing counsel in Aaron Sapiro's million dollar libel suit against Henry Ford today Nrangied over issues in the case.
 Sapiro. Chicago lawyer of Jewish descent and organizer of cooperative market organizations among farm- CTS, Is suing the automobile maker and his Dearborn Independent for series of articles which bitterly at- tackled organization and operation of the cooperatives.
 William Henry Gallagher, attor- ney for Sapiro, will base his attack on charges alleged 10 have been made in Ford's publication that Sa- piro is member of Jewish con- apiracy" seeking to gain control of agricultural produce marketing.
 The defense. meanwhile, Is pre- pairing to fight the case with Sa- piros methods of organization among farmers at issue. It is charged Sapiro dominated and exploited the cooperatives and was not actuated by unselfish motives
 The trial will open Tuesday In federal court here before Judge Fred s. Raymond. Opening guns of the suit however, will be fired Mon- day when counsel for Sapiro ask the courts permission to strike out ccr-
 t,s.;r al tl int
 They will also raise objections to a new plea filed by Ford. The or iginal plea was ordered amended when Sapiro complained it did not answer his charges.
 The new 200-page plea, filed In court yesterday, was said to be one Of the longest and most extensive in court history.
 If attorneys for saprio are suc- cossful in their attempts to place Ford on the witness stand. it is cer- tain they will draw from him an extensive story of his many attacks on Jewish business prejudices.
 The defense claim the word Icon spiracy' did not appear In any of the articles, although Jewish ring" was attacked and that 1t is not libelous to refer to Sapiro as Jew.
 Ford's last appearance on wit ness stand was eight years ago when he testified in his million dollar libel against the Chicago Tribune.
 The burden of the trial rests with the defense in their efforts 10 SUD- stantiate the articles. which ap- peared in the Dearborn Independent between April 1o, 1923. and April II, 1925. Twenty of the articles dealing with Sapiro were published.
 A distinguished array of attor- neys are connected with the suit. The defense will be led by Senator James A. Reed of Missouri, who is reported to receive retainer of Sl00,00o. William Henry Gallagher Of Detroit and Judge Robert s. Marx of Cincinnati will direct the prosecu- ton.
 We are going 10 do all in our power to thwart efforts to becloud the issues of this suit" Senator Reed said. Neither the principles of cooperative marketing nor the Jewish race are on trial accused of libelng Sapiro and we are going to- test his work and his marketing plan.
 Any attempts 10 seek refuge in the cry Of racial persecution will be met by us with a stern challenge to Aaron Sapiro to stand forth and try this suit on it's merits"
 Gallagher, In a counter statement, said Sapiro's reputation among farmers had suffered severely be- cause of Ford's attacks and claimed

Thus motor truck operators
