Eents investigation of certain charges
against certain officials or employees con-
nected with the work at Muscle Shoals(
there has been A great deal of specula-
ton
Mr.. Palmer refused to divulge the in
formation because it might give warn
ing or afford protection to those alleged
to be involved if the government should
conclude to prosecute. Some spectators
thought that there was threat in Mr.
Palmer's tone: others, that 1t was SIM
ply a statement of fact that he, him
self, hadn't investigated the reports and
was not in position to state a conclusion.
The Age-Herald representative. since
| that testimony has made futile efforts
to ascertain the exact nature of the
charges and what the investigation dis
closed. The only fact that could be eS
/ tablished and that not positively, was
i that Mr. Palmer had not studied the
matter. might rot reach it within the
next several weeks, and that his con-
clusion would of necessity be indefinitely
postponed.
| 1t has always been the contention of
those most deeply interested in Muscle
Shoals that the investigation brought out
i only minor facts of waste or extrava
gance There was something said of one
employee who used government gasoline
1 in his automobile: of others charging
fancy meals to expense accounts; and OF
lone other who took cash from a cash
drawer and deposited in lieu thereof d
Liberty Bond. an act based on imperative
need of money by means of which to
| reach a sick relative.
/ If there are no cases more serious the
Muscle Shoals candal' will take rank
| with innumerable others caused by the
existence and easy availability of great
sums of money. In that event, prosecu
items, if attempted at all, would be di-
rected against employees AT the same
time, Chairman Graham of the investi-
eating committee, seeming to believe
that the Attorney General limited at very
dark proceedings, expressed the fact that
he agreed with Mr.. Palmer.
The investigating committee was
scheduled to be in Muscle Shoals terri
tory this week, but the testimony of the
Attorney General warranted the inquis
itors in postponing their trip. 1t seems
to be conclusively established that the
Republicans have found nothing and car
find nothing serious enough to cause a
sensation or render possible the cessa'
ton of activity in north Alabama. That
is apparently their purpose.

BY HUGH w. ROBERTS

Washington, September 2.-(Special)
J. Bryan was coy as girl when
Espap per correspondents asked him d.
lily if he would be candidate for the
sidency. A pink blush suffused his
bnze countens nee.
lie then refused to answer
lie also refused TO answer a question
billed for the purpose of ascertaining
|ether or not he would use his power
force the adoption in the democratic
|tform of government ownership.
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1919-09-03

/ Nevertheless, the Impression is that Mr..
Bryan, as always, is candidate for
the nomination; and that unless he can
get the nomination, he will defeat if pos
sble, the candidacy of any man who
refuses to adopt either or all of his pet
measures
MIR. Bryan appeared in Washington and
before committees of Congress without
invitation or warning. He was simply
interested in the proper solution of the
railroad problem. His plan was joint
ownership between federal and state au-
tn orities. At that he did not proceed
against the Plumb plan under which the
government would operate the railroads
for the benefit of operatives He said
The Plumb plan has features which
commend themselves to me, and rather
than return to the system of private own
ership. 1 would gladly accept it
With the members of the House com
mittee on interstate commerce, Mr.
Bryan fenced with consunmate skill
Much of what you tell us is Interest
ing" said Representative Winslow, but
! all of it seems to be up in the air.
Everything is up in the air until 1t
| is brought to earth, replied the Nebras-
kan.
THAT is a very neat answer returned
Winslow, but we can't operate rail-
roads on that basis
| Mr.. Bryan became indignant when sug-
gestion was made that the Plumb plan
would throw railroads into politics. With
| fire and venom which recalled the old
Conner days" in Alabama, he replied:
1.-The railroads have been in politics for
% years. They have elected governors
and legislators and members of Congress.
They have controlled party conventions
and they have controlled Congress. And
if they are turned back again to their
private owners they will be more in poll
tics than ever before. For years they
have been trying to eliminate supervision
| by states and have it placed in Washing
| ton where members of Congress are not
close enough home to be watched"
That was a pretty fierce attack But
| the members of the committee, Injured
| to Mr. Bryans pleasantries, smiled and
did nothing more.
Some of them did refer to the activity
or the prohibition lobby in Washington
The great grape juice advocate, how
ever, defended that lobby on the ground
of his contention that it had no private
! interests to serve and lahored in the
! open.

Chas, kimball and J.Saupe arrived in Nome from Council City last evening, completing what is believed to be the first automobile trip ever made be- tween Nome and the interior city. They left Council Monday morn ing arriving at solomon during the evening of that day. After remaining at Solomon over night they commence ed the last leg of the journey scstcr- day and came through with flying colors last evcping. despite the fact that the storm and high surf along the coast forced them to travel much of the time in the loose sand along tho upper reaches of the beach.
 The trip was made in company with a team bearing Jafet Lindeberg. head of the Pioneer Mining Company. and
 Mrs. kimball The te2m and auto left Council at a. m. Monday. The lautcmobile arrived at solomon about one hour ahead of the team. Heavy snow lay on the ground from Council to the head of Shovel creek on Solo, mon river but did not greatly impede
 their passage Both auto and team morning and both arrived at Hastings creek at the same time. At this point Ithe party was met by the automobile i of Q. D. Cochran. to whic'. Mrs. Kim
 ball and MT. Lindeberg were transfer red. Both auto's arrived in town at ! I D. m.
 The travellers say when the gov
 ernment road is completed to Cape
 Nome it will undoubtedly be eisy to
 travel from Nome to Council in one
 day.
 The trip was made with ease and
 will probabl, hc the forerunner of
 many q similar journey by Nome auto ists in the future. So far as can be
 learned. no one has ever attempted q
 journey by -:iuto betwecn Nome and
 Council before. although many,sipcal automobile owners lave made the run ' to solomon along the beach. The view was apparently held that road conditions between Solomon and Council were too difficult to warrant an effort to reach the interior center. but the trip just ended has disclosed that the journey can be accomplished with ease and comfort.
