Auto Wizard Is Challenged to
.. Prove Semitic Plots.
FEDERAL PROBE FAVORED
.Leaders of Three Organizations
Offer to finance Inquiry la
Scathing Arraignment.
DETROIT, Feb. 19. (Special.)
Detroit Jews have issued a challenge
to Henry Ford to prove charges said
to have appeared in the Dearborn In
dependent of alleged plots by inter
national Jewish groups. They ask
him to "play the same as a true
American in a ppirit of sportsman
ship and citizenship."
Three Jewish organizations have
Breed to stand the expenses of an
investigation "to prove the untruth of
statements whic happeared in the In
depenrent." Jlr. Ford may choose in
vestigators from the government se
cret service operatives, it is said.
The organizations issuing the chal
lenge were: Congregation Beth-Kl.
Isaac Goldberg, president, and Leo
31. Franklin, rabbi; the congregation
Sha-arey Zedek. H. S. Blumenthal,
chairman of the board, and A. M.
Jiirschman. rabbi, and the Pisgah
lodge. Biiith, Bernard Cinsburg,
president.
A statement issued witfi the chal
lenge contrasts statements alleged to
have been made in a personal inter
view and published February 12 and
charges which were said to have been
made on the same date in the Dear-
oorn independent.
In the interview Mr. Ford Is re
ported to have said: -We are not
anti-Semitic." This statement. De
troit Jews maintain, is "contradicted
by the countless base and slanderous
cnarges lie has made against the Jew
and which he was making at the very
time he proclaimed to the world that
had a protest against anti-Semitism
been presented to him he would have
binned it."
The statement in part follows:
"iir- Ford's fallacious declaration
that -we are not anti-Semitic' must
contemplate on his part colossal cre
dulity on the part of the American
public. It is made in the face of the
despicable record that is being writ
ten by his Dearborn Independent. It
Is contradicted by the countless base
and slanderous charges he had made
ainsc me Jew, and which he was
making at the very time he pro
claimed to the world that had the
protest against anti-Semitism signed
by President Wilson, Cardinal OCon
nell and others been presented to him
he would have signed it also.
"Admittedly. Mr. Ford would have
signed it. Such an act would have
fitted admirably into his programme
Of audacious deception of the public.
Mnrrrity I, Qumlioncd.
"Was JIr- Ford sincere when he said
through the public press of February
1-' 'we are not anti-Semitic'? If we
would answer affirmatively, then, as
a matter of course, we must conclude
that he was deliberately provocative
when he said in the" Independent the
very same day: 'if the i)rpi,l,.ni nt
the United Stales or the governor of
your state should make a specifically
Christian allusion in his Thanksgiv
ing proclamation or mention the name
of Christ, that act would be protested
as offensive to Jewish sensitiveness.'
Mr. Ford must know this is untrue.
"Has the gentleman never heard of
the Detroit community Thanksgiving
lervice, originated by a Jew, Rabbi
Leo M. Franklin, and at which a Jew
demands that both tho proclamation
of the governor and of the president
be read at every service?
"Was Mr. Ford sincere when he said
In the public press on February 12,
'it is rot to characterize our cam
paign of education as anti-Semitic"
Ihen why the infamous libel, uttered
the very same day in the Independent,
that the Jew possesses solely the
'onental mind' and that 'American
life is bare and meager to Hie eastern
mind? It is not sensuous enough.
It is devoid of intrigue. Its women
of the homes do not play Continuously
and historically upon the sex motif.
It is a life made good and durable by
interior qualities of faith and quiet-
., aim inese, oi course, are ennui
and death to the Srientally minded.'
Home l,lfe Pointed Out.
"This, too, notwithstanding the con
. eeutiou of sacredness held by the Jew
for home life, and notwithstanding
also that there are hundreds of thou
sands of American-born Jews to
whom American ideals and American
tandards are ever their guide and
their watchword. Mr. Ford is not
anti-Semitic? Are such malicious in
sinuations as these merely expres
sions of his love for the Jew, and
should they call forth from the Jew
praise and thanksgiving?
"Thus on the very anniversary of
the birth of the great emancipator.
r uoes jienry Ford utter
lo me memory of the immor
tal Abraham Lincoln. Inference that
Abraham Lincoln was the tool of
Jewish bankers and that either he did
their bidding as a hireling, or as an
Innocent, ignorant victim, is one of
the most villainous and traitorous
utterances ever published in tho
American press.

The measure broadens the defini

BAKER EXPLAINS SCENERY
War Documents Reserved to Pre
vent Serving Ulterior Aims.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 23. Secretary
Baker informed Chairman Kahn of
the house military committee Tuesday
that his recent refusal to permit
J. if. Hill and C. C. Lindsay, house
war investigating committee agents,
to examine secret documents at the
war department, was based on the
ground that they "were known to
possess an interest in this investiga
tion not wholly inspired by a desire
to safeguard the public interests."
Representative Flood, democrat.
Virginia, had charged that the agents
as part of a blackmail plot, naa
sought Information concerning the
claim of. the Valley Forging company
of Verona. Pa., against the govern
ment on shell contracts and the ac
tion of the Pittsburg claims board in
allowing it.

A new- carburetor which cuts down
gasoline consumption of any motor
;m; reduces gasoline bills from one
third to one-half Is the proud
achievement of the Air-Friction Car
buretor Co.. S70 Madison St., Dayton,
Ohio. This remarkable invention not
only increases the power of. all mo
tors from 30 to 50 per cent, but en
ables every one to run slow on high
gear, it also makes it easy to start
a Ford or any other car in the cold
est weather. You can use the very
cheapest grade of gasoline or half
gasoline and half kerosene and still
get more power and more mileage
than you now get from the highest
test gasoline. Many Ford owners say
they now get as high as 45 to 50
miles to a gallon of gasoline. So
sure are the manufacturers of the
immense saving their new carburetor
will make that they offer to send it
on 30 days' trial to every car owner.
As it can be put on or taken off in
a few minutes by anyone. All read
ers of this paper who want to try it
should send their name, address and

once. They also want local agents,

Committee Told That 240,000
Acres of Land in Montana
Could Be Made Fertile.
i
WASHINGTON, D. C, Feb. 23.
Hearings on the bill of Senator Walsh,
democrat, Montana, authorizing the
utilization of Yellowstone national
park flood waters for irrigation pur
poses were begun Tuesday oerore a
senate committee.
Senator Walsh, in explaining his
measure, said people excellent in in
telligence but limited in information"
were "obsessed with a dread that the
people of Montana intended to com
mit a sacrilege against the park,"
and asked his associates in the senate
to "suspend Judgment until they got
the facts."
The committee was told that by
merely holding back the flood waters
to mean high level for a few weeks
in parh vear 240.000 acres of land
outside the park and In Montana
could be made fertile.
Denying that the proposal involved
any damage to scenic natural beau
ties of the park, the senator said the
people of Montana and their congres
sional representatives were more anx
ious than anybody else to preserve
these, because of their interest in
maintaining tourist traffic.
"Further, it is being asserted that
some attempt is being made to get
lellowstone park resources for hydro-electric
power plants," he said.
"The bill will leave any hydro-electric
power facilities that may be in
cidental to damming the lood waters
entirely under control o the United
States, where it is now."
GRAY' TALKS FOR, PEACE
War Between England and Ameri
ca Would Make World Unfit.
LONDON. Feb. 23. Viscount Grey,
at dinner last night, said he was one
of those who believed there, would
be little pleasure or interest In liv
ing in the world if there was war
between England and the United
States. It was plain to him that
there would not be cordiality be
tween the two countries w.hile the
Irish question remained unsettled.
He referred to the Anglo-American
peace treaty, requiring one year's
deliberation before war was declared,
and added that he did' not believe
the two great democracies would
ever go to war if the treaty were
obeyed.
Viscount Grey regretted that the
people of the United States seemed
conscious of the Anglo-Japanese al
liance, but appeared to be unaware
of the Anglo-American peace pact,
which was still in force.
SPURIOUS LABELS SEIZED
