SapirO Charges
Ford EVades
Main Issue
Irked Because Henry Is Mum
About Communism

DETROIT, March 14.-Charging
Henry Ford with "evading the issue"
attorneys for Aaron Sapiro, noted
organizer of farmers co-Operatives,
this afternoon pleaded with Federal
Judge Fred S. Raymond to elimin-
ate the auto kings 'plea of justifi-
cation" from the million dollar libel
suit brought by SapirO.
The libel suit, growing out of a
series of attacks on Sapiro in Ford's
Dearborn Independent, developed
into a maze of legal technicalities.
Ford, however, drew first blood
when the court ruled out an amend
ment which Sapiro's counsel sought
to insert into their bill of complaint.
Calls Sapiro Communist.
In attacking the "plea of justifi-
cation" in which the auto king said
he would prove all charges against
Sapiro, the latter's attorneys de-
clared Ford had not defended the al
legged libels in scores of instances.
Two of the alleged libels, stressed by
Sapiro's counsel, were statements in
the Dearborn Independent that the
Jewish movement led by Sapiro to
control American farmers, was a
Communist movement, and that
other acknowledgements Jews had
aided Sapiro.
Otto Kahn Also Communist!
The Ford articles charged that
Kahn, Bernard Baruch, Albert A.
Lasker and julius Rosenwald had
helped Sapiro. 1t was commended by
William H. Gallagher and Robert S.
Marx, Sapiro's counsel, that Ford's
"plea of justification" did not prof
fer any proof of these charges.
Charges Communist Zionism.
1t was charged that the Jewish
movement in America was a Commu-
nistic movement and that it was the
Sapiro plan to make American agri-
culture Communistic, said Marx.
Ford denied that there was any in
nuendo in the statement and denied
that it referred to the plaintiff, that
is not a justification of the libel.
If the "plea of justification" should
be struck out, it was said, Ford
would be seriously handicapped in
his defense.
Ford is placed in the humiliating
position, of either trying the impos-
sible task of proving the big bust
ness man, Sapiro, Communist, or
of arguing that it is not slanderous or
libelous to falsely call a man Com
munist, distasteful confession for
the anti-Bolshevik Ford.

SINCL AIRS FATE
WATTS DECISION
OF TRIAL JUDGE

Today's decision of Justice William
Hitz, who has been presiding at the
trial of Harry F. Sinclair, indicated
for refusing to answer questions
asked of him by the senate oil scan
dial investigating committee, will de-
eide whether Sinclair's attorneys sue
ceeded or not in their efforts to ter
inmate the trial by a tangle of legal
technicalities.
These defense attorneys have been
arguing for three days that the ques-
tions which Sinclair refused to an
swer were not pertinent" to the SEN
ate inquiry, and they have devoted
themselves to attacking on legal
grounds every point Of the commit
tees procedure.
If Justice Hitz upholds their con-
tentions, the trial will end immedi-
ately. If they are overruled, the
jury will decide the case.

SAY DECISIVE
BATTLE RACES
IN NICARAGUA
Diaz Attacks While US.
Disarms Sacasa

MANAGUA, Nicaragua, March Ia.
Intense fighting is reported in that
territory lying between the towns of
Muymuy and TERRA Azul, according
to dispatches received here tonight
from the war zone.
This battle, between the federal
troops and the rebel forces, may be
the decisive factor in the Nicaraguan
affair, close observers Of the situation
declared. The result of the battle is
not known.
Marines Intervene.
The constitutional government of
Nicaragua of which Juan Sacasa is
president, has beaten the American
appointee, president" Diaz complete
ly, but has been cheated out of all his
gains by the policy of occupying with
U. S. marines all territory his troops
capture. This has given .Diaz a
chance to reform his army.
Rushing Arms.
The Diaz government had massed
its forces near Muymuy, which is the
Sacasa stronghold.
Larg5 Shipments of arms were
rushed yesterday to the battlefront,
Three million cartridges, 5000 rifles
and 200 machine guns were included
in the shipments sent to Diaz. Am
munition for Sacasa is seized by
American forces and destroyed.

The gun play is a recent addition

According to those who are ac-

equal protection of the law.
Under the New Orleans ordinance,
majority Of the residents on any
street determined whether il to be a

State Department Will
Not Help Sen. King Get
Past Haytian Puppet

WASHINGTON, March IA. If
Senator w. H. King (D) of Utah,
succeeds in entering Hayti it will be
through his own efforts, and not to
state department intercession in his
behalf, it appeared today. State de-
partment officials said this morning
they were "powerless" to aid the
Utah senator, who has been classed
as undesirable" by the Haytian pres
ident, and barred from the country.
Despite the American occupation Of
the little republic by permanent gar
rison of u. S. marines, and the fact
that most of the governmental func-
tons there are conducted by marine
officers, officials of the department
explained that Hayti is a sovereign
power and entitled to exclude anyone
hsr president sees fit. In this case
Hayti Saw fit" to exclude a critic of
Coolidge.
WASHINGTON, March 14.-Sena-
Tor w. H. King, democrat, Utah, has
apparently abandoned any hope of
visiting Hayti and the state depart
nent is secretly elated that the Gin
ident is closed" it was learned to-
night.
Senator King is believed to be en-
route to Santo Domingo, having left
Porto Rico, where he received notice
from President Borno, of Hayti, that
he could not land in that republic.
The state department made the usu-
al formal protest to Hayti and COM
municated to Senator King at San
Juan, Porto Rico, that nothing could
he done in his behalf. Senator King
id not answer the departments tele-
gram and has not been officially heard
from since.
