The chief importance of the million dollar Sapiro suit against Ford lies in the fact that during the course of the quarrel, various little known facts about the business dealings of each of these wealthy men will be made public. Reed, Ford's attorney, has already stated that he can prove Sapiro looted farmer co-operatives by the wholesale. He claims that Frank Lowden, "friend of the farmers," was associate in this business. Lowden's name is important, for he is the logical next candidate for republican nomination to the presidency, as Reed is for the Democratic. On the other hand, the basis of Sapiro's charge against Ford is that the latter accused the millionaire Sapiro of being a radical, of aiding the Communists and the I. W. W., besides which, according to Ford, Sapiro was part of a Jewish conspiracy to dominate agriculture. The absurdity of these charges, and Henry Ford's "Jewish complex," are being brought out by Sapiro.
