.QE FORD LEASE
[Republlcan A. p. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON. Feb. 9-The adj
visibility of reducing the time clause
Of the Henry Ford's offer for the lease
OF the Muscle Shoals government
owned lands from 100 to so years was
questioned indirectly today by Major
General Lansing II. Beach, chief OF
army engineers. in testimony before
the house military committee. Re-
ferring 10 the general policy of the
government not TO lease its proper
ties for a period not exceeding so
years, General Beach. in his testimony
at the hearing of the committee on
the Ford proposal for the lands and
plants at Muscle Shoals said that 1T
is not always advisable TO apply one
general rule TO things big and small.
Secretary Weeks, who was heard
yesterday declared repeatedly that in
his opinion it would be unwise to per
NIT the lease of public lands and
property to private interests for 100
years. General Beach said that 1t
was "a question in as big and inn
portant a matter as this whether the
5O-year rule would not work hard
ship"
1t was lis belief the general con-
tinued. that in disposing Of the prop
critics at Muscle Shoals the para
mount consideration should be the
effect upon the nations defense rather
than the manufacture OF fertilizer.
The country. he said, should not be
caught again" without an adequate
nitrate supply.
The engineer officer was preceded
by Major General Williams, chief OF
ordnance who explained valuations
of properties involved in the Ford Of
fer. He estimated that the Warrior
mower plant and transmission line
could be salvaged for S3,000,0OO or
more, and declared that figure was
three-fifths of all that Mr.. Ford had
offered for the nitrate plants and
other properties. These properties 1t
was estimated, had a scrap value 10
the government of sS,8l2,OOO ana
would be worth $16,272,OO0 If made

The policy of the war department,
he explained. however, was opposed

He added later that 1t was intended

General Beach will be recalled to-
morrow to answer questions of COM
mitteemen who failed TO have an op-
portunity today.

Foreign Cardinals
Favored American
Vote At Conclave
REPUBLICAN A. p. Leased Wirel

ROME. Feb. 1.-Two thirds Of the
forengn cardinals and a small frac-
tion of the Italians favored American
participation in the conclave which
elected Pope Plus TX. Against the
proposal 20 delay the election were
almost all Italian cardinals, led by
the camerlengo. Cardinal Gasparri.
1t is learned that the Austrian Car

Cardinal Csernoch, primate of Hun

the final choice for the pope should
not be madeu ntil at least one Ameri-

Cardinal Piffl was even more de-
ternined. Eyes. it may be true he
said in answer TO an Italian colleague,
that prolongation would not be in
strict consonance with the constitu-
tion. But can the sacred college risk

Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait said
Governor Miller of New York was
wrong when he characterized the
league as menace" She told
her colleagues that the political
menaces of the present day were
"bossism." the use of money in
elections and an illiterate elec-

votes. She said that when the
Republican party pledged itself
to do away with these things and
come out for civil service as op-
