Ford's Apologry to&apiro
Following is the text of the apolo- j v.
gy which the Dearborn Independent\ J
made in a recent issue to Aaron Sa- i tl

The Dearborn Indepndent wishes to
announce that ihe suit commenced by I
Aaron Sapiro for libel against the a
Dearborn Independent and Henry j f
Ford has been terminated gatisfactor-j 0
ily to all parties.
The suit was based upon state- J''
ments appearing in a series of arti-1 n
s
cles published jn 1925 and 192) i by \
the Dearborn Independent upon the j
* . 1 . c
subject matter of cooperative associa-:
tions organized on the'Sapiro plan.
. I 1
The articles complained of by Mr.
Xti|ijro dealt with the so-ca'led Sa- j
.piro. plan of cooperative marketing
and the relation.! of Mr. Sapiro with
0
the associations organized on this I
plan. They were prepared and writ

Independent, whose works anil writ-1
i ''
nigs have in the past appeared in va- j
rious periodicals in this country. They
were accepted at their face 'Blue, by

since been found that inaccuracies of

fact were present in the articles and , j
that erroneous conclusions were i
drawn fiom-thesjtvinaccuracies by the
writer. As a result of this, Mr. Sa-j
piro may have been injured and re- f
flection cast upon him unjustly. Such
statements as may have reflected up

impugned his motives, or challenged j
the proprirety of his personal or prn

Mr. Henry Ford did not participate
I ersonally in the publication of the
articles and has no personal knowl
edge of what was said in them. He,
of course, deprecates greatly that any
facts that were published in a period
ical so closely associated with his
name in the -mintls of the public
should be untrue.
The articles.in question dealt with
cooperative marketing. The Dear

phases of this subject and of other
subjects of interest to the farmer.
If the advancement and development
of cooperative marketing has suffered

articles, then we sincerely regret it.

One Town With Puritan Ideas
There is yet one town left where j
the people do not believe in the worth
less waste so prevalent in neafiy
every community you go.
Falcon, N. C., a little village in
Cumberland County 7 miles south
east of Dunn, is probably the only
town in the United States where
lie'ther U cigarette Coca-Cola, plug
of tobacco, nor dust of snuff can be
t
bought.
The village is composed of a few
hundred persons, who are mostly
members of the Holiness Church.
They have a church building open to
all church people. In addition, they
hi\ve a very large building built on
the tabernacle plan, In which thous
ands gather every summer to engage
in a camp meeting service lasting foi
several weeks. They have a building
well arranged for the assembly, where
the visitors cook, eat and sleep.
