WHAT HENRY FORD HAS
DONE FOR THE SOUTH

A service of unreasonable val
lie has been rendered to the south
by Henry Ford. He has converted
all the skeptics in the country
i including congressman, who,
4 heretofore, have undertaken to
belittle Muscle Shoals, as to the
enormous value of the Tennessee
River for transportation and for
hydro-electric development. He
has quickened the eagerness OF
All the banking interests identi-
Tied with water power develop

pie to secure this property, which
so long went a-begging because
the national Government under
Democratic and Republican con-
troll would never recognize it's full
value and it's ililmitable potential

Dortaticn on the Tennessee River

power, which would add it is safe

dollars to the wealth of the South
and thus to the wealth of the
country.
The despised and neglected
Muscle Shoals has now become
the center of the nations thought
ard Congressman who have here
tofore secuted its value now come
TO full and frank recognition of
what the utilization Of this great
potentiality means for the wealth
of the nation.
Ford has been the genius who
has created this new value for
Muscle Shoals. If Congress de-
cides that the national Govern

less have given to the South Q
greater advertisement than I all

newspaper and in every business

Moreover, if Muscle Shoals is
developed by the Government for
vast nitrate-making interests
Fcrd's interest in the South has
become so great that it is posi-
bic his activities may be conferred
upon other great hydro-electric

many not utilized. His attention

come out of this whole agitation

POSTAL IMPROVEMENT
! WEEK is OBSERVED
May | Sees lnaugurated First
General Campaign OF

Without the Postal Service, business
would languish In day. and be at

would die Of dry rot. Sectional hatred
or prejudice only would flourish, and
narrow-mindedneSs thrive.

In the world and 1t comes nearer to the
innermost interests of greater num-
her Of men and women than any other
institution on earth. No private buSi-
ness, however widespread, touches so
many lives SO often or sharply; no
church reaches into SO many souls,
futters so many pulses has SO many
human beings dependent on its min
istrations.
postal Improvement Week" has
been set for May l, by the Postmaster
General. This is the first general cam
paign of it's kind in the Postal Service
