Why Germany Should Pay.

Why Germany Should Pay.
Think of what it would mean should
the Boche go through any one of our
own agricultural states and commit
the same terrible depredations. Would
we not say that he should pay? And
can we afford to say anything less for
the farmer of France than we would
say for the farmer of America? No,
the American ideals of today, the
ideals which the stricken peoples of
Europe are striving to make their
ideals, demand justice for all wherever
and whoever they may be, and Amer
lea can do no less than demand the
same reparation for the French farm
err that she would demand for the
American farmer under such circum-
stances.
There is othing living today on
those Somme fields. There is nothing

remains of what were once prosperous
towns and cities. These and the
graves of almost countless thousands
of soldier dead-some of them Ameri-

Amiens, Albert, Peronne, Hamel, st.

ers that are today but heaps of debris,
but which will figure prominently IN
the history of the great war.
This beautiful valley was interlaced
with magnificent roadways, and each
roadway lined with wonderful trees,
many of them centuries old. Along
these roadways stood hundreds of
farm villages, each village housing
from one hundred to five hundred hap
by, contented, thrifty people, who
titled the soil of their fertile acres and
gathered the fruit of their orchards as
their forefathers had done for many
generations.
Upon the farms of this valley all of
France depended for much of its food
stuffs, for its bread, it's meat, its fruit,
and year after year these fertile acres
had met the expectations of France in
the matter of food production.
And then came the Boche with his
dreams of conquest and of loot and
for four years this valley of the
Somme was a battle-ground, with mil
lions of men struggling backward and
forward across it, those on the one
side seeking the selfish purpose of
world domination and destruction and
those opposed seeking the preserva-
ton of freedom and liberty and world
civilization.

Operation of Nitrate Plants
At Early Date Well Assured

Sheffield, November S.-(SpeciaL)-
The creation of federal corporation,
as proposed by Secretary of War Baker
in a bill that has been submitted to
Congress, and which provides for the
control and operation of the govern
ment's nitrogen plants here, indubi-
tably assures to the people of the Shelf
feld-Muscle Shoals district, that the
operation of these plants is not in the
distant future. For some time these
authoritative reports concerning tho
local operations have been anticipated.
Approval of the plans as submitted by
Secretary Baker is naturally unani-
nous here. And yet, the view has neven
been held by the people here that the
government would permit these great
industries to remain idle.
With the operation of these plants
there will be Unreasonable gain to the
city of Sheffield-the gateway city of
the Muscle Shoals district. The future
of this city would be assured by the
operation of these plants, aside from
the building of the Wilson dam at
Muscle Shoals. 1t is this city that will
be enriched by large payrolls. Being

are located In the west side limits and

since it is conceded that provision
would thereby be made against an
emergency. BY converting the plants
into industries for agricultural pur-
poses. they would be available i'm
mediately to the government at any
moment for the production of war mu-
nitions, should the occasion arise.
Through the operation of the plants
even at this time it will be possible
to produce on a commercial basis recog
nized chemical products of high value
and ready sale, prior to the completion
of the Wilson dam. These requisites
have undoubtedly been carefully con-
sidered by the government officials,
hence the conclusion that has been
reached to proceed instanter with the
operation of the industries.
The West Sheffield plant, known as
nitrate plant No. 1. is completed and
practically in shape for immediate
operation. While in disuse it is never
theless in charge of a corps of work
ers, the personnel of which includes
resentatives of the General Chemical
company and the ]. G. White En-
gineering corporation, under whose
joint supervision the plant was erected.
Col Hardee Chambliss represents the
government as commandant at the
plant. In operation the industry will
give employment to approximately
1903 men,
At the big Muscle Shoals plants, i'm
mediate1y east of Sheffield and known
as nitrate plant No. 2, considerable
construction work will be necessary to
convert the plant from munition-
making plant into one adapted to turn
ing out commercial nitrates for agri-
cultural purposes. Several months
would be required to complete the job,
which would require the employment of
several thousand men. The industry
in operation will employ upward of
1000 men. Col. John X. Clement is
the commanding officer at the plant.
and there are probably 1000 people
engaged there at this time.
There is much activity noted In and
about the Muscle Shoals plant, al
though it also is idle. Preparations are
being made to house many workers
here. Between 1000 and 5000 men to
be engaged in the building work on
the Wilson dam will be quartered on
the plant reservation, which lies con

RAISING HEIGHT OF
DAMS ON WARRIOR

Tuscaloosa, November 9.-(SpeclaL)-
The work of raising the height of the
dams on the Warrior river this season
has been greatly retarded by the height
of the water, states the United States en-
gineers in this city. The dams at all OF
the locks. except Lock II, are to be raised
two feet in order to give a greater depth
to the river all the way from the head
of navigation to Mobile bay.
The work of raising the dams a uniform
height of two feet at each lock cannot
be carried on unless the water running

has been from two to six feet deep on
the dams the entire year, very little
actual work has been done, except to got
the material for heightening the dams on
the ground.
The contractor who has the job of rails
