abandoned his golf to motor to Man

Victim, Shot i'm Back,
Identifies Assailant

Some one told Patrolman Bilge last
night that a shot had been fired in q
patch of woods near Midland Avenue
and South Boulevard, New Dorp, Staten
Island, and immediately afterward a
man had run out of the woods, jumped
into an automobile and driven away
toward the ST. George ferry.
AS soon as Bilge had warned the po-
lice to watch for the car at the ferry
he searched the woods and found Ar
thur Hontano, of 4S Spring Street, Man
haitian, unconscious from a bullet
wound in the back of the neck He
was taken to Staten Island Hospital
and is expected to die.
Within twenty minutes of the dis
covery of the wounded man, Dominick
Scotellara was arrested as he drove
up to the St. George ferry in his
car. He was taken tc the hospital
where Montana is said to have identi-
fed him as his assailant Scotellara
was locked up at the West New Brigh-
ton police station charged with feloni-
Gus assault. He refused to tell the
police anything about himself.

Ford's SIS, 100000
Offer for Muscle
Shoals Considered
Includes ST., $50, 600 Annual
Rental for Power Site;
WeeksMakingFul Inquiry
and Expects New Bidder


WASHINGTON, July 25.--In making
public to-day the complete, proposal
made by Henry Ford for the purchase
Of the Muscle Shoals waterpower
property from the government, Sec
rotary of War Weeks said that ex-
perts of the War Department, Treas
ury Department and Commerce Depart
ment were now engaged in thorough
study of the property and of the offer
made by the millionaire automobile
manufacturer.
Secretary Weeks said Mr.. Ford's offer
contained some stipulations that the
government could not meet, citing the
first paragraph Of the proposal which
called upon the government to guar
antee the generation of at least 6OO,000
horsepower at the plant.
"The government" Secretary Weeks
said, cannot guarantee any amount OF
horsepower, for that depends upon the
state of the Tennessee River, the stage
of which changes from time to time"
Secretary Weeks said some army
experts on water power have already
| gone over the proposal and have ad-
vised him variously on the advantages
| and disadvantages, from the standpoint
| of the government. Some officers, ne
said, had recommended complete rejec-
| ton of the contract, while others sug-
gested notifications.
The Ford proposal also is being gone
over by experts in the Treasury De-
partment and by employees of the De-
to cooperating with the War Depart
ment officers in compiling a joint rec
ommendation to Secretaries Weeks,
Mellon and Hoover to guide them in
their negotiations with Mr.. Ford.
A second proposal for taking over the
plant is expected from another cor
poration within short time by Sec
rotary Weeks, he indicated to-day. The
War Secretary declined to make known
the firm from which the offer was ex-
pected, pending the actual receipt of
| the proposal.
MI. Ford's offer was to purchase the
nitrate plant for $5,000,0o0 and for lease
for one hundred years, on completion of
the Wilson and No. 8 dams, providing
power for the project, at an annual
aggregate payment Of $1,680,000.
The dam lease proposals include pro
1 visions to amortiZe in ninety-four years
the government investment in the Will
son dam, taken at $40000,000, and in
ninety years the $8,000,000 in the
dam No. completion.
The offer is made subject to com
plete right of the government to plant
processes and personnel in the event OF
war, and for the purpose of determin-
ing whether "the application of cleo
tricity and industrial chemistry" to
agriculture may not do what they have
economically accomplished for other in
dustries."
Profits of the operating company
would be limited to 8 per cent under
the offer, board Of farm organization

Canal Expenses To Be Cut
Secretary Weeks Will Receive
Connor Report in a Few DAYS

From The Tribttne's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, July 25.-Secretary
of War Weeks will receive this week
the report of the special commission
which has completed survey of the
Panama Canal Zone with the object of
recommending changes to bring about
q reduction in cost of operation.
Brigadier-General w. D. Conner and
his associates will complete their re-
port within a day or two. 1t is under
stood the commission will suggest re-
auctions in civilian personnel and con
solidation of duties of many employees
in order to economic on the cost of
maintaining the waterway.
Secretary Weeks has started the
work of cutting expenses by abolish
ing the Office of United tSates Marshal
there. The removal of two officers, the
Marshal and his assistant. has re-

him for to-day, which includes a meet
ing with the Association Of Foreign
Newspaper Correspondents at tho
Gotham at o'clock and reception
from 1880 a. m. to 6 p. m. to members
of the press
An invitation to visit large moving
picture studio was extended. "I've never
visited even small one" said Viscount
Northclitfe eagerly. Whats the best
time to GOT"
Discussing President Harding's pro-
posed conference for the limitation Of
ornaments, Viscount Northcliffe reiter-
ated previous assertion that the plan
mad met with warm favor in Europe.
He indicated that he hoped Great
Britain would be represented by civil
delegates rather than by government
officials, "from whose acts there would
be no appeal" but he steadily refused
to refer to the feud between himself
and Premier Lloyd George, who, accord
ing to cables from London, has been
selected as one of the two British rep
resentatives.
Fight for Individual Liberty
What the English people are now
fighting for is to regain the individual
them during the war; said Lord
Northcliffe. "It is difficult to get rid
of war bureaus and war paraphernalia.
Government officials, once given un-
usual power, are reluctant to yield it.
even when it's need had disappeared.
SIT seems to me that what we most
need is to get down to bedrock econo-
mics in the running of government. We
are tax-weary, for one thing. The
wage Garner in England pays s shil.
lings taxes out Of every pound he
earns. The ratio is greater as in
comes are greater. But even more
than that, the average Englishman who
loves his liberty wants to have it re.
stored as fully as it was before the
war.
eve are taking this question of dis
armament seriously in England. 1t il
an economic necessity, as has beer
shown by the compulsory disarmament
of Germany. 1t was one of the things
for which the war was fought. Hence
we in England look forward with great
hope. to what may be accomplished il

Brown s Job
Brown S Job

Brown is gone, and many men
in the trade are wondering who
is going to get Browns job.
p There has been considerable
speculation about this. Browns
job was reputed to be good job.
Browns former employers, wise,
grey-eyed men, have had to sit
still and repress amazement as
they listened to bright, ambi-
ious young men and dignihed
old ones seriously apply for
Browns job.
M Brown had big chair and a
wide, fat-topped desk covered
with sheet of glass. Under the
glass was map of the United
States. Brown had a salary of
thirty thousand dollars a year.
And twice year Brown made
"trip to the coast and called
on every one of the firms dis
.tributors.
p He never tried to sell any
thing. Brown wasn't exactly in
the sales department. He visited
with the distributors, called on
a few dealers, once In a while
made a little talk to a bunch of
statesmen. Back at the Office he
answered most of the important
complaints, although Browns
job wasn't to handle complaints.
Brown wasn't in the credit
department either, but vital
questions of credit usually got
to Brown, somehow or other,
and Brown would smoke and
talk and tell a joke, and untwist
his telephone cord and tell the
credit manager what to do.
! Whenever Mr.. Wythe, the
impulsive little president, work.
ing like beaver, would pick up
a bunch of papers and peer into
a particularly troublesome and
messy subject, he had a way of
saying, "What does Brown say?
What does Brown say? What
the hell does Brown say?-Well,
why don't you do it, then?''
And that was disposed.

lots of that, Mr.. Wythe would
say, Brown, you handle that.

tors met unoMc1ally and decided
to fire the superintendent of
No. 2 Mil. Brown didn't hear of
this until the day after the letter
had gone. 'What do you think
Oft, Brown?" asked Mr.. Wythe-
Brown said, ~That's all right.
The letter won't be delivered
until tomorrow morning, and
III get him on the wire and have
him start East tonight. Then
III have his stenographer send
the letter back here and I'll de-
stroy it before he sees it.

thing to do
I Brown knew the business he
was in. He knew the men he
worked with. He had a whole
lot Of sense, which he apparently
used without consciously sum-
moning his judgment to his assis-
lance. He;seemed to think good
sense.
Brown is gone, and men are
now applying for Browns job.
Others are asking who is going
to get Browns job-bright, am
bilious young men, dignihed
older men.
Men who are not the son of
Browns mother, nor the hus-
band of Browns wife, nor the
producttof Browns childhood
men who never suffered Browns
sorrows nor felt his joys, men
who never loved the things that
Brown loved nor feared the
things he feared-are asking for
Browns job.
Don't they know that Browns
chair and his desk, with the map
under the glass top, and his pay
envelope, are not Browns lob?

Race Track Returns.

Secretary ]. F. Hayward, OF the
State Racing Commission, sent to
State Comptroller E. Brooke Lee
nearly half million dollars as the
commissions first collections from the
four one-nile tracks operating in the
State.
The amount in hand was $414, 900,
made UP of the $4,000 per diem col
lested from the tracks for the So
days of fall racing meets. To date
the commission has incurred some
obligations, including It's Office rental,
salary accounts and general expenses,
including furniture. This amounts to
about $1,000, which will be deducted
from the sum turned over to Comp.
troller Lee. 1t is not unlikely that
the commission may also determine
to withhold an additional sum for fur.
ther expenses between this and the
next income from the tracks.
Advance in the development OF the
State Breeding Bureau through use
of funds from the tracks was made,
when the managements at Laurel and

purpose. Laurel contributed s29,5O0
and Bowie S1S,700. These payments,
together with $4,000 from Havre de

total of 100000 for this purpose.
