COMPLETE THE MUSCLE
SHOALS, ALA, PROJECT
Farmers Organizations Taking
q Definite Hand

Farmers throughout the nation.
and especially in the south. are
watching with great interest the
outcome Of Henry Ford's offer to
take over the government power
plant at Muscle Shoals, Ala. When
first advised of the cost of COM
pleting the project, many were
doubtful il il could be made to pay
a reasonable return on the inves-
ment. But when Henry Ford with
his generally recognized business
genius thought enough of it to
make a definite offer. confidence
was restored and a nationwide in
terest revived.
Farmers organizations have taken
definite hand in urging congress
to complete the Muscle Shoals un-
dertaking. The American Farm
Bureau Federation sent a special
committee to Muscle Shoals to see
what had been done and what
could be done. After a careful in
vestigation. the committee reported
unanimously in favor of the com
pletion of the project. Since that
time the American Farm Bureau
Federation and other organizations
have urged upon government Off
cials the necessity for completing
the plant and making arrangements
for its operation.
Regardless of what responsible
man or body of men may secure
the contract. the fact that the pro-
ject should be completed stands
out more prominently than ever.
AS originally planned. this plant
was to have served in time of war.
Its utilization for commercial pur-
poses in times of peace will not in
terfere with its use for war purposes
in the event of that necessity. AS
il stands, great natural resource
il going to waste. Several millions
have been spent. That. too. will
be wasted unless the job is finished
Let's put up the money to finish
the job. salvage big war loss and
put a great natural resource to work

economic development. Progress

Officers Salaries

The Grenada Sentinel. the editor
of which is an unusually we'll in
formed writer, estimates that the
increase in salaries of county Off
GERS. under the law passed in 1920.
will have cost the state the mag
nificent sum of over million dol
lars by April l. of next year when
this law expires. unless re-enacted
by the legislature. The officers
who are receiving this increase in
salary were elected with the idea
that fhe old salary basis would OBJ
tain, go the increase in compensa-
ton was simply a pickup. This
same paper reports the fact that
when Governor Parker. of Louis
lana, was asked to advocate law
increasing salaries in that state, he
said: No, it would be an act of
bad faith. These people knew what
the salaries were when they were
seeking the Office Gov. Parker was
exactly right .--Weodville Republi-

Cause and Effect

Every prohteering, selfish, grasp
ing trust or combination learns
after time that it can push prices
so high that the people buy less
than half so much. And another
thing, great manufacturers ought
to have common sense sufficient to
grasp the fact that if they beat
down the price of raw material be-
low the cost of production they de-
stroy the power of the great body
of the American people to buy the
manufactured products and hence
business stagnates. factories run on
half time or shut down, throwing
employees out of employ ment and
thus further adding to the pinch
of hard times" When products of
the soil are low in price and the
transportation lines elevate rates
they take from the producer all
chance for profit on their product,
while the consumer must pay to
the retailer the excessive freight
bill and thus both the producer and
consumer are hurt, ship less and
buy less and both ride less. And
in the long run the transportation
lines suffer, too.-Democrat-T Times.

Another Hog Story

She lost a real hog and advertised
for it. The editor says the hog
must have read the paper, for he
came hiking home on the dead run
as soon as the paper left the post
office. This is not the first in
stance where a hog has read a

got to pay for it.

Those farmers who are making
the milk cows, the poultry flock and

basis, are going to have some sur
plus money when they sell this
years cotton crop. They don't have
to dump" their cotton on the mar
ket when it is ginned Ii it is nee
essary the farmer can borrow money
on his cotton, for the local banker
knows that he is dealing with man
who is farming on a sound basis

statistical position becoming strong

not concur in the generally express
ed belief that the new crop will

Mill takings are about 25 pei
cent greater than last year despite

While this indicates a consump-

The reason a partial paralysis of
production exists in the chief in
dustrial nations, is not because the
world has no need for commodities.
but simply because they can not
be produced at a price which con-
sumers are able to pay. The rea-
son is not in the cost of the raw
material, but in the cost of manu-
facture. High standards of life dis
appear in the imperative necessity
to live-and workers must produce
to live. All of this has an obvious
relation to the worlds situation to-
day. When labor decides to do a

their interests. Some of the officials in North Da
kota proved recreant to their trust and sought to
allow railroads and other corporations increases in
rates to which they not entitled to by law, but
the League farmers have been strongly enough Or
ganized to block every unjust increase that has been
sought and have attended promptly at the next
election to the officials who proved unfaithful.
In North Dakota today, largely due to the watch
fuhess of William Lemke, the attorney gen.
eral, who appointed as special legal represen-
tative of the state by Governor Frazier when the
former attorney general and other officials appear
ed to have gone to the railroads, every attempt
to raise railroad freight and passenger rates within
the state has been blocked, though railroads have
for months been charging increased rates inter-

commission which allowed the railroads an
exorbitant valuation on their property

rate pieces for repair purposes are charged at

phone company got valuation on each telephone
instrument something like dollar higher than the
price at which the complete telephone instrument
could be bought wholesale.
By giving railroads credit for the present value
of land grants which were donated to them by the
government they were able to show enormous valu-
ations. These valuations were high that if they
had been taken for taxation purposes the railroads
would have been compelled to pay tremendously in
