FORD LIBEL CASE.
SELECTION OE THE JURY. DETROIT, March 15. Despite all protestations to the contrary it is now becoming evident that both sides in the Ford libel case are beginning to admit that Jewry has something to do with the case. The selection of the jury for the hearing of Aaron Sapiro’s suit against Henry Ford occupied the attention of the Judge and attorneys throughout the day, with the questioning of prospective talesmen, showing that even the defence which firmly maintained that .Jewry was not an issue, nevertheless, tqok cognisance of the difference between Jew and Gentile as jury material. Similarly, a man who testified that he once’ joined the Ku Klux Klan “more out u of curiosity than anything else” was subjected to a close questioning by Papiro’s counsel.—(A. and N.Z.).
