SUIT AGAINST I FORD AT END (Continued from page 1.) Heved ho mistrial should bo grant ed. "It is deeply regrettable and de plorahlo that a case ' which . huti cost as much money and labor should come to this conclusion. "But when that newspaper re port became known it seemed, and seems now impossible to proceed," "This trial falls to a large extent becauso justice has been crucified upon the cross of unethical and depraved journalism," said the court, , Gallagher Protests Gallagher in a formal statement last night disclaimed any inten tion to come into court today and argue against (lie part of the mo tion for a mistrial as based upon Mrs. Hoffman having granted the interview. However, promptly at' the opening of court he launched Into -a 45-minute address so ear marked as an urgume'nt against the motion that when he stated in. conclusion It was not such an ap peal, Hanley was taken by surprise and hud to have the court reporter read to him Gallagher's final re marks. Gallagher pleaded in an impas sioned flight of oratory with the Ford counsel to proceed with the trial with "oloven or ten or four or three jurors." j "Where could you get 12 -men and women who would be ' unpre judiced after all this publicity?" he shouted his opponents ' ns he pounded the table under their noses. '... j . ' ; : They offered ho reply, however, aud as Gallagher sat down (oi the last time in the long trial Judge Raymond slowly, bo I o inly and ap parently with deep emotion, began the Vemarks which ended tho trial. Views of the Court "There are, I understand, 300 to 400 witnesses yet to be presented in this caBo," he said. "No plain tiffs or? defendant ought to be obliged to eo mo into u federal court and 'twice present his evi dence, but that seemingly is jthe case becauso of a desire of ft newspaper for something startling. "There is a terribly unfortunate experience for tho court." . , ; Judge ' Raymond asserted that the information in the affidavits had been turned over to tho feder al department of justice but that ho had not received a final report of the investigation and did not at the time Itnow , whether there would be criminal proceedings against, any one. i Gallagher's Final Shot ; At the outset of his address to the bench, the jury having been sent from the court room, Galla gher termed the mistrial motion "so preposterous it ought not to require an answer." - He spoke of . the difficulty, of trying a suit against Ford in De troit, home of 100,000 Ford Motor company employes, who, he said, with their families, made from 200,000 to 300,000 sympathizers spreading propaganda. "Why, you can't get a better jury than this," he exclaimed with a wide sweep of his arms towards tho but recently vacated jury box, He assailed tho Ford organization and Its detectives for what he said he had learned were their meth ods in litigation, accusing them of tapping wires, even in the rooms of judges, and seeking to Influ ence jurors. "It is our frank belief that the entire situation is not brought about by a desire to insure a just verdict but to secure a postpone ment," he challenged. "AH tho facts indicate that." "The affidavits do not justify the granting of such a motion. Framing Charge Hurled Gallagher turned towards the Ford attorneys and shouted an ac cusation at them that they had "so framed the motion as to go far be yond any supporting affidavits. He assorted that under the lawyers' hands the affidavits had become so embellished and elabor ated that they made a nubile cor ridor of tho postofflce building USED C A Hansen Chevrolet Company Spring Clean-Up Essex Coach, 1925 model.

ANY REASONABLE become an obscure nnd socluded spot He Bald that In their original form ttur affidavits Included the sworn statement that Miller, the alleged go-between for Sapiro and Mrs. Huffman, had handed Mrs. Hoffman a five pound box of candy and that the statement had been dropped when it was learned that tho men jurors merely had paid f i a card game bet lost to the wo 1 men ns they Idled away time in their retiring room during some of the long arguments at which their presence was not desired. 'If they can't tell Miller from a juror who has been in the court room for five weeks, how can we believe anything he says?' he de manded of Judge 'Raymond . re garding the Ford detectives. Hanley, the Ford consul leader. made only a brief reply to Gulla gher's address to the court., He Insisted that two days ago Galla gher had agreed with tho Ford counsel that if nothing else in the allegations was sufficient for de manding a miBtrlnl, the fact that Mrs. Hoffnmu had conversed with a newspaper man was enough by itsejr. . , i Tho trial ended without Ford ever having boon in tho court room.

It let lots caster to have a position - like mine where -I work about eight hours a day than to have a Job ' where one works twenty-four hours a day. I would rather run a resturant and serve fifty people than to try to please a . growling husband and four hungry youngsters. I would rather bo chumber-niald in?a hotel than to pick; up after dad and three chil dren going to high sohool. But this is n&lde 1'rom the subject.
