INSIDE PLANS ARE OUTLINED
FOR THE TAKING OVER or
GREAT NITRATE PLANT.
ENERGY UNIT ISSUE PROPOSED
"The Government First Gave Crcdl&
and Then Must Pay For Use Of
What 1t Gave"

Florence, Ala.-Henry Ford, for this
first time, gave the inside story OF his
epochal plan to take over from the
government the gigantic nitrate plants
at Muscle Shoals.
Mr.. Ford expects through his op-
Grafton of the war plants to point the
way to the rest of the world for per-
manent peace. This is how he will
do it, provided the government sells
him the properties.
Inste2 of the government issuirg
bonds : the $30,000,000 still needed
to CO.. iete the nitrate plants, Mr..
Ford proposes that congress author
ize - issue of 100000 20-dollar
bills for new form Of currency.
TITS currency would not be based
on gold or silver or any recognized
monetary unit. 1t would be based on
a unit of energy which would be fig
ured out and which would be equiva-
lent to one dollar. This energy money
would not bear interest 1t would
pass as readily as bills backed by the
gold reserve in the treasury. 1t
would be backed by the imperishable
and inexhaustible energy Of the Ten
nessee river.
Engineers say it will take thirty
million more to finish the job Mr..
Ford said, but congress is economical
and doesn't want to tax the people for
it. The United States, the greatest
government in the world is forced to
go out to borrow a pesky thirty mill
lion dollars as the end of thirty years.
The government not only has to pay
back the thirty million but it has to
pay 100 per cent interest, literally has
to pay back $66,000,000 for the use OF
s30,000,000 for thirty years and all the
time it is the governments own money
the money sellers never created it,
they got it from the government orig
inally.
THE government first gave credit
and then must pay for the use of
what it save Think of it! Could any
thing be more childish?'

are the ideal public officials. / be-
lieve there are q great many possi-
bilities for the married woman in po-
litical roles-the woman who has
raised children that have gone their
way, who retains her youthful enthu-
siasm, but, after years is isolated do
mestically, is out Of touch with cur
rent events. Many medical men told
that the female brain, under such
circumstances, retrogresses beyond re-
covery. This theory is ridiculous. 1
can't refute 1t scientifically, but I
know many women who have come
back after raising families. Children
should broaden woman, never cramp
her. OF course, the mind becomes
fiabby through disuse, but the married
woman's mental sluggishness is no
greater than that which afflicts any
one after years Of mind inertia"

MARRIED WOMAN SHOULD KEEP
HERSELF INFORMED ON ALL
PusLIc QUESTIONS.
new YORK COUNTY REGISTER
Miss Anne Mathews Elected to the
! hishest-saiaried Office q Woman
Ever Held In. This Country.

New York.-To be of the greatest
service to her community and her
country, the married woman should
keep herself informed ON questions
of public interest. and never allow
herself to become Indifferent to pol
itics.
This was the opinion of Miss Anne
Mathews, democrat, elected to the
highest-salaried office a woman has
ever held in this country. She was the
successful candidate in New York
county for the office of register, post
paying $4,000 year. The salary Of
Alice Robertson, congresswoman from
Oklahoma, is only $500 a year.
Miss Mathews ran on a platform
the chief plank of which called for "a
business woman for a business job"
She will admit no sex dsqualifications
for political positions but has no pa
thence with the society dilettanti that
have invaded the realm Of women's
politics. THE butterfly woman is use
less in politics." she said.

esQue. Miss Mathews will have juris-
diction over a force of 144 workers,
the majority of whom are men. The
registers office records transactions
in real estate and other activities
requiring official record, and keeps a
file of notaries public signatures.
Il do not propose to change the pol
icies now being followed in the office, =
she explained.
Women have the inherent ability
which fits them to discharge any pub
lie function as we'll as men can do it.
Frequently they are handicapped by
lack of business experience. Women
since the beginning of time have been
keeping the home and raising the chill
dren, while men have had unlimited
opportunity to engage in civic affairs.
A business training is great asset
for any public officer-man or woman.
The person who has been employed
understands best how to give the peo-
pie full value for their money and
how to get the greatest quantity and
best quality of work from those under
him

Regret at Resignation.

Whereas our pastor. D. p Bridges, has
rendered his resignation at Saron church,
we the members of said church accepted
his resignation with psinful hearts, feel
ing that his pastorate with us has been
so short, though he has served US for six
years. We feel that his faithful service
as pastor with US has not ended, and we
are reluctant to give him up. But not
our will but the Lords be done.
We can gladly commend brother
Bridges to the work where he feels that
the Lord has called him, and our prayers
will ever be with him, to hold him up to
do the work that he may take upon him
self to extend the Kingdom of our Lord
among the children of men. What we
losing at Saron, some other field is gain
ing. Brother Bridges has been faith
full Shepherd to the flock at Saron, he
has visited some of our homes when
sickness, and death, was there, and
miuistered to the sorrowing ones and
gave them great encouragement from the
word of God.
We can say as the poet said:
"Bless be the tie that binds our hearts
in Christian love:
Inc fellowship OF hlnuIeu IhlnuS IS
like to that above.
When we asunder part, it gives US
inward pain;
But we shall still be joined in heart,
and hope to meet again.
This we offer as resolution from
Saron church and ask that this be pub
lished in Biblical Recorder and copy be
sent to the Post Dispatch for publication
and one to Brother Bridges and that a
copy be placed on our church minutes.
This done by order of the church OF
Saron the 4th Sunday in November 1921.
