Democrats and socialists had
charged that bulletin posted In
the Ford Motor plant at Detroit,
calling attention to Henry Ford's
presidential, choice, was an effort to
intimidate. 1t said of :, President
Hoover in part:
1--WE are convinced that any
break in his program would hurt
Industry and employment. To pre-
vent times from getting worse and
to help, them< to get better. Presi-
dent Hoover must be reelected"
The statement was defended by
republicans as a frank expression
of opinion. Ford was scheduled to
repeat his statement on his presi-
Dental choice for a nationwide
audience tonight.
The Ford statement mad been
attacked by Chairman James A.
Farley of the Democratic national
committee. Farley also cited tele-
gram from Virgil RogeIs. young
democratic leader from Akron, o.,
charging that tire manufacturers
there, Goodyear, Firestone, and
Goodrich, had attempted to init
midate their employees. These
charges were. denied by the tire
company officials. ~
