Henry Ford’s closest collaborators are all Jews, was the assertion of Representative Sol Bloom of New York City in an address delivered Sunday before the Young men’s Club of Temple Adath Yeshurun. Mr. Ford’s doctor, his legal adviser, his architect and his spiritual adviser are all Jews. he stated.
Henry Ford’s anti-Jewish “complex” was traced by Representative Bloom to the failure of the famous peace ship expedition in 1915.
Mr. Bloom said that before this illfated venture Mr. Ford never had shown any ill-feeling toward the Jewish people, but after he had become the “laughing stock of the world,” the manufacturer recalled that the expedition had been suggested by a Jewish woman and he began his anti-Semitic campaign.
