Defense of Carl Embie an3
His Work at Detroit.
Detroit. Nov. 1. (U. P.) Henry Ford
today issued a. statement defending
Carl Emble, head of the draughting de
partment in the Ford Motor company
plant, who was the subject of comment
in the aircraft Investigation report made
by Charles E. Hughes. Mr. Ford said:
The Ford Motor company has manu
factured 1242 Liberty motors during the
pasr month. That was about 300 more
than were manufactured by the next
highest factory. I do not know what
better answer could be made to the
criticisms. We started later than the
others and have passed all. the nrn-
ductlons standing up to the most rigid
inspection in every particular.
"Our policy is to make men, not to
break them.. In times of panic great
injury and injustice are often done to
innocent persons, and we try to keep
our heads.
"We would not allow injustice to be
done to an old trusted and , valued em
ploye, even though he was born in Ger
many. The results speak for them
selves. Mr. Kmbie, referred to as the
special example in the Hughes report,
has been with us a little over 12 years
and he is a most able and excellent en
gineer and has always given perfect
satisfaction. We, in the plant, know
that he gave valuable assistance and
many suggestions with regard to the
developments of the Liberty motor cyl
inder which are being furnishedto all
of the manufacturers, with a saving of
$345,000 a month to the government over
former prices."
