BURYING THE HATCHET.
FORD LIBEL CASE SETTLED. SAPIRO ACCEPTS APOLOGY. (Received July ,17, 5.5 p.m.) A. and N.Z. CHICAGO, July 16. Mr. Aaron Sapiro, who recently began a libel action against Mr. Henry Ford, in which he claimed £200,000 damages, which action was later held to be a mistrial because of the alleged bids of a woman juror, announces that the matter has now been settled. Mr. Ford recently made an apology for the attacks made on the Jews in his paper, the Dearborn Independent. Mr. Sapiro said: "We have agreed not to announce the terms of settlement. However, as far as concerns the three points on which the suit was taken, namely, the Jewish issue, the co-opera-tivo marketing issue and the personal issue, I am convinced that the other side have made a decent and a manly retraction, and I am satisfied."
