By the Assoclated Press. DETROIT, = September. - 13 —Charges that the Interstate Commerce Com- mission, through its control of empty coal cars; “is playing into the hands of coal profiteers under guise of regu- lations ,for the public g00d” were made here in a statement issued by Henry Ford from his offices in Dear- born, a suburb. Plans for the Ford shut-down are goling forward, it was said. When he announced the con templated ' closing, Mr. Ford ex- pressed the belief that no coal short- age existed, and that certain brokers were attempting to “gouge” the pul lic by profiteéring in fuel. He said \he would refuse to pay what he termed excessive coal prices. <A sweeping denial of iat Press dispatches, coming from Cin- cinnati the night of September 8, to the effect that the Fo !

Maj. Emory, in addition to denounc- ing the senator for his 3tand in the Newberry case, urged that “younger blood” be sent to the Senate. Mr. Baker, a state senator, was loud in his denunciation of the Newberry aftair and urged repeal of the Esch- Cummins rallroad act and passage o | legislgtion more favorable to farmers and other workers. ' Gov, Alex J. Groesbeck was assured \of renomination early today, having polled a much larger yote than the total cast. for his two opponents, Richard H. Fletcher of Bay City and Theodore M.
