FORD AID DENIES COUGHLIN CLAIM

Priest Says Rabbi Wrote k, Industrialist’s Plea if For Jews. DETROIT, Dec. 5 (U. P.) —Harry Bennett, Ford Motor Co. personnel

manager, today defended the Henry Ford statement on Nazi persecution)

{dress yesterday.

which the Rev. Fr. Charles E. Coughlin assailed in his radio ad-

Father Coughlin charged that Rabbi Leo M. Franklin of Temple Bethel wrote the statement, that is distorted Ford's comments, and that Mr. Ford actually did not believe there was widespread persecution of Jews in Germany. Mr. Bennett said that the statement, which was -published as “authorized” by Mr. Ford after a discussion with Dr. Franklin, was “absolutely correct.” He said he read the statement before it was released and added that it was “reproduced exactly as my copy of it read.” In his discourse yesterday, Father

1 Bennett

Coughlin said that representatives of Social Justice had asked Mr. if the statement was authorized by Mr. Ford. He said Mr.. Bennett issued a signed statement saying: “The direct quotation carried in the paper is totally inaccurate and was not written by Mr. Ford but was composed by Rabbi Franklin.”

Rabbi Refuses to Comment

Father Coughlin declared that the incident “was a gigantic attempt to put into the mouth of America’s foremost manufacturer words he did not say.”

Asked for comment on the priest's

| charges, Dr. Franklin said that “all

replies ather Coughlin. come from Ford officials.” Father Coughlin attacked the press generally in his’ address as failing to “face the issue which I presented” in two previous Sunday sermons. “Would not a dispassionate judge be inclined to conclude that the effort on the part of my critics to]. assail my person and scoff at my presentation of facts—would he not conclude that this is related to their desire to protect communism? “It appears that at present they are concerned with -an attempt to stultify the statements I made about communism, by dismissing them with generic denunciations.”
