officials and Henry Ford on the lat
ter's offer for purchase and lease Of
the Muscle Shoals. Ala, nitrate and
waterpower projects. came to a sud
den halt today. Officials said the offer
would be considered. in conference
to be held later, but the date for the
conference has not been definitely
fixed.
Departure Unexpected.
Mr.. Ford left Washington in his
private car early today for New York,
ness awaited him and made 1t imper-
atfve for him to be there today His
departure came Unexpectedly, as it
had been oficially announced, follow
ing the, conference yesterday with
Secretary Hoover Of Commerce and
gineers, that he would remain in
Washington for further conferences
to be held today.
Secretary Weeks still was confined
tc his home by an attack of indiges-
tlon, but hoped to reach his Office later
in the day. His indisposition made 1t
impossible for him to participate in
the meeting with Mr.. Ford and his
engineer yesterday, and the negotia-
tlons were therefore given a prelimi-
nary status. awaiting the Secretary's
presence before entering the stage of
final action.
May Report to Congress.
Secretary Hoover's statement. made
at the conclusion of yesterdays meet
ing. that a report might be made to
Congress on the Muscle Shoals ques-
tion within a few days led some to
believe that an imminent agreement
between the governments represen-
tatives and Mr.. Ford-was not improb-
able. In that event, 1t was said. it
might not be necessary for Mr.. Ford
to return here in person and the Anal
negotiations would then be carried
to conclusion by the engineers of the
Detroit manufacturer and officials
here.
