Aaron Sapiro, whose objection to anti-Jewish material published in the “Dearborn Independent” took the form of a million-dollar libel suit against Henry Ford and others, is now in Saskatchewan, Canada. His law partner. Robert S. Marx, said he had heard nothing of a rumored settlement out of court of the libel action.
W. J. Cameron, editor of the “Dearborn Independent.” reiterated this morning his statement of last night that he had received no orders to discontinue publication of articles hostile to the Jewish people, as reported in a New York dispatch quoting Henry Ford as having issued such instructions.
Fred L. Black, basiness manager of the “Independent,” also declared he knew nothing of any such instructions. Efforts to reach Mr. Ford were met at the Dearborn offices with the statement that he was “out of town for the day.”
