acted at this session of Congress.
The committee obviously is Inn
pressed with Commissioner Wallis
statement as to the need for inspec-
ton of aliens before leaving Europe
and for more rigid examinations after
their arrival at American ports. The
commissioner recommended particu-

clared that 80 per cent of the immi-
grants arriving under the existing sys.

II they were examined at the ports Of

100000 q year to TIN United States
1t is in the limited transportation

HUGE ALUMINIM
PLANT IS FORDS
PROJECT
Chief Use For Muscle Shoals
Announced.

Special to The Commercial Appeal.
CINCINNATI, Ohio, Dec. En-
route from Muscle Shoals, Ala, Henry
Ford, multimillionaire Detroit auto
mobile manufacturer, and Thomas
A. Edison, widely known inventor, in
Mr.. Ford's private car, "Fairlane," "
passed through Cincinnati early to-
day.
Mr.. Ford stated here officially that
he and Mr.. Edison will submit re.
port to the government in their esti-
mate of the cost of completing the
Wilson Dam at Muscle Shoals for the
purpose they have in view. Mr.. Ford
made it clear that he intended to de-
vote much of the giant plant to the
manufacture of aluminium.
Mr.. Ford says it was his intention to
shave the people of the entire nation
benefited by this acquisition, "and that
he will finance the project so as to
prevent money brokers from profiting
by it through interest charged.
Speaking in cons; derable detail, Mr..
Ford stated that the fact that the
railroad equipment of the country is
so heavy results in extraordinary ex-
pense in many ways even the railroad
bridges have to be of remarkable ex-
pense and heft because the cars and
engines are much heavier than they
should be made. The new operation
of the Muscle Shoals plant along the
lines Mr.. Edison and myself have
planned, will mean many hundreds of
millions of new value to the southern
safes and the making of Muscle
Shoals into the worlds greatest alumni
mum plant will allow the revolutioniz-
ing of railroad train construction and
cutting transportation costs in two
"Think what that means, not only to
the south but to al America" said
Mr.. Ford in closing. Mr.. Edison sec
onded Mr.. Ford's most remarkable
statement.

WONDERFUL SCENE FILMED
Those in Buried Treasure" Report.
ed to be Magnificent

Director George D. Baker, after he
had finished making the Cosmopoli-
tan picture, Buried Treasure" STAR
ring Marion Davies, which comes to
the Grand Theatre next Monday, as
serts that the scenes taken for this
production in Popango canyon, Cali
fornia, against background of peaks
outrank anything of the kind yet
done in films.
The setting demanded by the script
was Seventeenth century castle In
Spain. Mr.. Baker says that when he
and Joseph Urban, the famous scenic
artist, came on their quest for a site,
they saw its rich possibilities but were
shy of its wildness. However, the Ur-
ban eye cut its way through the
growth of centuries and with the help
of three Moorish arches and balus-
trade he created his effect.
Among the scenes in the picture is
a farewell between Marion Davies, the
herione, and her father, the part
played by Anders Randolf. This
scene, it is said, is screen classic.
