 No Comment From Weeks
 Secretary Weeks transmitted the Ehgstrum proposal to the Senate and House for reference to the agricul- tural and military respectively. He refrained from making any comment on the offer, leaving the committees to consider it for themselves in con nection with those already made by Mir. Ford and the Alabama Power company.
 Chairman Kahn expected tonight to conclude hearings next Tuesday on the Ford bid and begin immediat- consideration of the power com panys offer. s. Fl. Dent, former chairman of the committee was scheduled to appear Monday to con clude arguments for the Alabama Power company on the contract After he has concluded the Ford in- quiry will end with a final statement from W. B. Mayo, respecting alter ations MT. Ford has agreed to in his offer.
 Sentiment among the House com mittee men appeared to be set hard against a visit by them to Muscle Shoals. Several declared it was too late to go since the committee had progressed with the investigation three weeks and was anxious to con- tinue with consideration of the other offers without interruption such as a visit to Muscle Shoals would re- ouire

 Prolonged Proceedings Likely
 Interest in the debate on the War rior plant and accessories, including the substation and transmission line, was intensified because of the close relation to the properties and the offer MT. Ford has made for the Muscle Shoals project as a whole. In the event Congress will accept that offer, it was said, it would obligate the government to give clear title to Mir. Ford and refusal of the powe.' company to surrender it's claims probably would entail prolonged con- demnations proceedings in the courts.
 While MT. Martin declined several times to reveal the attitude of the company on that point, he intimated there would be no alternative ac- ceptable but the rulfilment of the contract on the part of the govern ment to sell the property to the com pany at fair valuation and it would

LOCAL SHOOTERS M 0CK TRIAL, WITH STILL HANGING ON JUDGE "AB'' PRESIDING, TO 18TH PLACEPR0VES ENTERTAINING

The mock trial held last night under the auspices of the Fifth Ave- nue Presbyterian church with Judge H. B. Abernethy acting as judge, re- suited in verdict for Miss Willie Mae Greene, who sued J. E. Moore for $5O0.O00 for alleged breach of promise.
 But instead of the half million thar she asked the jury awarded her one one bottle of Hoyt's perfume with the provision that Moore would pay a dentists bill contracted by her.
 Hollis M. Parish was the counsel for the plaintiff, Miss Greene, while Luther Patrick pleaded the cause Of the defendant.
 Judge "Ab" with his delightful mannerisms ruled that all the law yers said in the case would be thrown out as unimportant. "He says she preached, and she says he preached ." remarked the Judge. That makes a pair of breaches. Women are like second hand fountain pens or To- year-old automobiles. You can't tell when they are going to start or stop"

 Leaders of the house republicans opposing sales tax waged a vigor- ous campaign against this form of levy before the subcommittee met to- day to resume it's considering of the financing problem. They said the ranks of opponents had been swel1ed considerably within the past two days and that whatever doubt there might have been about the result of the is- sue in the House had been removed.
 Stress Political Aspects
 It became known today that Rep resentatives Frear and Dickinson of Iowa and Woodruff of Michigan call ed on Chairman Fordney late yester- day and frankly laid before him the whole situation, placing emphasis on it's political aspects. They were un- derstood to have contended that a sales tax would cause general dis satisfaction fthroug hout. the country, would make the soldiers bonus ex- tremely unpopular with the people and might result in political upheaY- als in many normally solid republi- can districts.
 Those favoring the passage of a bonus bill without any provision for raising the revenue, said such legisla- tion could be followed by another bill giving the Secretary of the Treasury authority to use proceeds from the refunded foreign bonds in paying the bonus. They said the expectation now was that some @ht least, of the foreign bonds, would be in hand by June or July that money could be realized on them half the cash pay ments to the former service men would become due.
 Special machinery for paying the bonus will have to be set up in the war department it was said, with a large staff of clerks necessary to ex- anime the service records fthe men to determine the exact amounts that each is to receive. Because of the

The sixth match of the U. & R. A. pistol series shows Birmingham still hanging to the thirteenth position in the senior and junior divisions Springfield team No. 1 leads the ex- pert division. Springfield No. 2 leads the senior and Cristobal leads the junior leagues. The total of Cristo- bal, c. z. is considerably higher than the leader of the senior league, all though Cristobal was classified be- fore the beginning of the matches in the class below the seniors. Their showing is most unusual and unex- pected.
 Another feature is that an eastern team is leading the expert league. but the next three teams, Oakland, Olympic and Seattle, are western out fits. In the junior league the west ern teams are near the bottom most ly, Colorado Springs being low team for all and Tuscon, Ariz., fourth from the bottom.
