high average-an acre.
And the tremendous electrical
power generated at the dam could be
turned to a number Of uses in~Work-
ing raw materials available from
nearby sources.
Chief among the possibilities If
Ford acquires the property is the
production of ammonium. Immense
deposits of bauxite, the ore from
which aluminium is smelted, are
available in the Tennessee noun
tains, an easy haul by rail or water.
All the essentials. for iron and
steel production lie within a narrow
radius.
Coal and Iron, Too
Both coal and iron ore deposits in
the Birmingham district are less
than 100 miles away. Immense un-
developed beds of ore around Gads-
den are waiting to be tapped.
Limestone of high grade is founo
thirty miles south, where the COY
eminent has opened large quarries.

cially profitable in connection with
the fertilizer development.
Two hundred miles south lie the
great long leaf pine forests of south
ern Alabama, Georgia and Missis-
sippi.
The transportation problem is not
difficult. Sheffield, just below the
nitrate plant, and dam, is on the
Memphis branch of the Southern
railroad, reaching Memphis, Chatta-
nooga, Knoxville, Washington and
the east.
A Sheffield Birmingham branch of
the Northern Alabama railroad con-
meets directly with Birmingham and
lines south, while a branch line OF
the L. & N. terminates at Florence.
The main line of the l.. & N. passes
at Decatur, forty-miles east.
The Tennessee river is now navi-
gable by boat from St. Louis to the
foot Of the dam. When the dam and
locks are completed, river naviga-
ton will be opened to Chattanooga
and Knoxville.

100000 Horse Power Avail
able From Tennessee Riv-
or at Point of Wilson Dam
BY HARRY HUNT

FLORENCE, Ala, Dec. 15.-Just
what is the Muscle Shoals develop
ment, the proposed leasinak Of which
by Henry Ford has opened to the
south a vision of industrial greatness
and prosperity?
Muscle Shoals is a section of tho
Tennessee river between Browns
Island and Florence. In the thirty
seven miles between these two
points the river has a certical drop
Of 1874 feet.
But 100 feet of this descent is ac-
complished in the fourteen miles
Immediately above Florence, where
the river is held between high stone
walls three-quarters of a mile apart.
The stream flow here varies between
10000 cubic feet a second in eX-
treme low water and 100000 cubic
feet a second in flood time.
100000 III. L. of Power!
A dam across the river above
Florence, holding back a 1O0-foot
depth of water, could supply for con-
siderable periods of each year 600, 900
horsepower of energy, 100000 horse
power for approximately nine
months annually and 100000 horse
power at all times.
The annual power would equal
the power derived by burning $780,.
900 tons of coal under steam boilers.
Given this power, what can be
done with it?
The great nitrate plant built by
the government during the war, now
idle and deteriorating, could be
operated to supply cheap nitrate for
fertilizer manufacture.
This plant, operated at full ca
pacity, would utilize 100000 horse
power and would produce 10000
tons Of ammonium nitrate a year.
This would supply the average
nitrate content for fertilizer for
more than 100000 acres of farm

Mr.. Drukenmueller's opinion that
the bandit is a professional seemed
borne out by the experience of other

some diamond rings, picked out a
large stone and dashed through the
front door and escaped.
On the same day or the day before
John Scheer, whose jewelry store is
on the viaduct, at IL Peachtree
street, was visited by man of the
same description. Mr.. Scheer recog-

Hughes has not yet taken up the

also wants to acquaint himself thoroly
with allied phases of the issue before
reopening the parleys.
Negotiations on this question during

REMOVE WAR TIME RULES
Citizens of Germany and Austria May
Now Be Admitted.

Citizens of Germany and Austria
living in Shawnee county may file dec
larations of intentions to become citi-
zens and have their applications acted
upon the same as the citizens of any
other country, according to informa-
ton received by w. E. Anderson, clerk
of the district court, from n. r. BeV-
ington, chief naturalization examiner,
st. Louis.
During the war congress passed a
law forbidding the naturalization of
enemy aliens. A few days ago this
restriction was removed and their ap-
plications will now be heard and acted
upon the same as if they were the sub
ject of any other country.
Many subjects of the Central pow
ers have RETAINED from declaring
their intentions or petitioning for nat
uralization, on belief that such an at
tempt would be futile, due to the war
time restrictions on ultimate naturali-
cation.
On April the applications of en-
envy aliens in Shawnee county who
had filed their declarations before the
wartime law passed, but who could
not obtain their final papers because
of the war time restriction, were heard
and disposed of. In the future, any
alien may file a declaration of inten-
ton and be naturalized in the regular
manner.

Knox Resolution To Get I'M

Binds q. S. to. NOthing-Only
Ends State of War.

Washington, April 26.-The senate
today took up the task of making
peace with Germany and Austria. Its
action, in which the house must con-
cur. is to be the prelude to the whole
Harding policy of establishing world
peace upon a permanent foundation.
Senator Lodge, in calling up today
the Knox resolution repeating the
declarations of war upon Germany
and Austria, authorized by congress in
1917, set that program in motion.
All congress has to do with the pro-
gram for the present at least, is to
substitute a technical state of peace
for the technical state of war which
has existed since the armistice ending
actual hostilities more than two years
ago.
The resolution as reported by the
foreign relations committee binds the
United States to nothing. 1t is simply
a Formally.
Lodge hopes to pass the resolution
in a day or two. He will be satisfied
to pass it this week. The house, hav-
ing a resolution of its own, may take
a week longer
