WOULD LEASE THE NO. 3 DAM
StipuIates That Lease Shall Run 100
Years, For Which He, or His Estate
Will Pay $1,5oo,ooo Annually.
JAMES 3. JONES.

Washington.-Secre Weeks an
nounced that he would ask congress
for authority to accept proposal by
Henry Ford for acquiring the govern
ment nitrate plant at Muscle Shoals,
Alabama, if the offer was found to be
substantial" The proposal, which
was transmitted by Secretary Hoover
was on his desk, Mr.. Weeks said.
Mr.. Ford offers to buy the nitrate
plant, equipment and lands for $5,,
100000, and lease for 100 years the
Wilson and No. 8 dam, when complete,
at an annual obligation OF $1,500,OO0.
He proposes to convert the works into
a fertilizer plant, the profits of which
would be limited to per cent and to
keep 1t in readiness for the manufac-
ture of explosives by the government
in time of war. II acceptance Of the
offer is found advisable, Mr.. Weeks
said, he would ask congress for au-
thority to sell the plant and lease
the dams and for an appropriation to
complete the electrical installation on
them. This work Is estimated to cost
$2S, 100000 and on this sum Mr.. Ford
proposes to pay interest at the rate
OF per cent and to amortize the en-
tire cost of both dams.

OTHER NATIONS SYMPATHETIC
Administration Officials Are Confident
of an Early Acceptance From the
Government at Toxic.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. pledges OF
cooperation have reached Washington
from several quarters in response to
President Harding's proposal for an in
ternational conference on limitation OF
ornaments and other world problems.
Definite acceptance Of the Prest
dents invitation to participate were re.
ceived at the state department during
the day from Great Britain and Italy,
while informal adyices came to official
circles here that a favorable reply from
China might be expected in the near
future. At the same time 1t became
known that much sympathetic inter
est had been manifested informally
by several governments who do not ex-
pect to have seats in the conference.
France having previously expressed
her willingness to take part, the only
invited power from which no sort
of an expression had been received was
Japan. Administration officials were
confident of an acceptance from the
Toxic government, however.
