Judge Fred H. Blume
For the Supreme Court

Judges are elected on the non-partisan
ticket. That means that they are elected
without reference to previous party afilia-
ton. To insist that party utilization of any
one should be recognized is to drag the
court into politics rather than take if out.
Judge Blume has served faithfully and
efficiently as justice of the Supreme Court
for nearly two years. He has shown by his
record that he now should be elected to a
regular term. His home is at Sheridan.

Never Needed Muscle Shoals" /"

We have never needed Muscle
Shoals he continued. The gov
ernment invited us, although we
didn't think we wanted it, to make
bid for the property. And we
finally did because as we say it,
gave us an opportunity to awaken
the whole American people to what
they can do if they will only study
and utilize the water power p passi-
bllities of the country. And the
more we investigated the thing the
more we saw the great wastes 60
ing on. We believe it is our duty
to remedy, if we can, some OF these
wastes.
The question of disposing Of the
governments properties to private
interests by lease, purchase or agee-
ment to complete, was divided to-
day into three separate parts.
Law officers of the War Depart
ment were directed to begin work

with regard to the proposal OF
Henry Ford which, the war secre.
tary announced, would be SUBMIT

and Mr.. Ford 5 signature affixed.
The offer proposed BY G. c. Tink-
ler' Of San Francisco, was being

rushed to that city for modification
so as to include a provision for the
manufacture of nitrates after the
plants and dams have been com
p eted and ready for operating. Mr.
Tinker left Chicago yesterday and
was expected to reach San Francis
CD early next week After confer
ence there with officials of the Con-
struction Company of North Ameri
ca, of which he is president, Mr..
Tinker was expected to return
here and formally present his pro-
posal to the war secretary.
AS third part Mr. Frederick Egg
strum, president of the Newport
Ship Building Company, of VII
mington, N. G. and engineers as
ssting him, were engaged ina CON
sideration OF making slight changes
in the offer he has already submit
ted to Mr.. Weeks. These were said
to involve the inclusion of more
definite provision for nitrate manu-.
facture at Muscle Shoals than had
been submitted.
Secretary Weeks reiterated today
mis- determination not to announce
what comments he would make
to Congress on the Ford bid before
they were given TO that body. He
also was insistent in referring to the
Ford pr Dposal that it be understood
that his decision in referring the
question to Congress did not and
could not, imply an acceptance or
Endorsement of it on his part. Mr..
Weeks explained that he diu not

From present indications the
coming convention of Lee Highway
Association in Chattanooga January
2 }rd TO 25th will be one of unusual
interest,
Advices received from Virginia
and Tennessee convey the infurma-
tion that delegations are planning
to a tend. The desire of commun-
i ties west of Chattanooga to secure
the location of this great highwa
and to have il pass westward
through the Memphis gateway j,
likely to bring delegation, from tn
towns and cities along competing
routes.
The convention is to be bull
around the idea of strictly husi
ness session. The addresses will b,
given principally by the officials oi
the organization. A large wall map
is being prepared which shows TIE
physical condition of the road at
the present time and reveals the
localities upon which work must be
concentrated. The reports of the
various officers and delegations
from the different sections will deal
with the situation and plans will be
formed for the construction of all
unfinished links.
Especial interest centers in the
co ltest for the routing from Chat
tanocga to Memphis. A ear ago
Muscle Shoals Highway Associa-
ton offered its route from Chatta-
Eo1ga through northern Alabama
n )rtheastern Mississippi and south
western Tennessee as Lee Highway

FORD ATT TACKS WEEKS
FOR SHOALS DELAY
Says Secretary Asking "Irrele-
want Questions"
SEEKING NO SUBSIDY
Answers War Secretary By Declaring
Edison Says Good Fertilizer Can
Be Manufactured Cheaply at Nitrate
Plants.

Washington, Jan. a. Henry
| Ford, in a statement tonight, de-
clared that Secretary Weeks was
apparently delaying settlement OF
the Muscle Shoals proposition and
that the fertilizer trust, the power
and chemical interests of Wall
Street, the money brokers and other
interests that fear to have Muscle
Shoals developed along lines that
will serve all the people most, are
deluging Weeks and Congress with
literature that grossly misrepresents
the facts.'
This is not a political matter" :"
he added, to be iockied and jnggl-
ed about. Why doesn't Secretary
Weeks take it or leave it, yes or
no, as he would a private business
matterJ mean that now, after
six months, he is still asking what
appear to me as irrelevant questions
and delaying settlement of this
matter. We didn't want Muscle
Shoals for selfish purposes in the
first place; hanged if we care very
much whether or not we get it now
We didn't make the government a
selfish business proposition-it was
an industrial philanthropy which
we offered-an offer based on a de.
sire for great public service.
A subsidy means getting, some
thing from the government for moth
ing. We're not asking the govern
nent for nickel ms cad we're
giving the government an offer un-
predented for its generosity. If the
ertilizar men think this offer mean
subsidy why don't they go anc
ak to Maj. Gen. Beach, chief q
the army engineers? Say, those
fellows would climb the Washing
ton monument rather than get the
army chiefs figures"
Discussing charges that he could
not make a fertilizer at Muscle
Shoals on a profitable commercial
basis, Mr.. Ford declared that
Thomas A Edison says we can."
I'm not a chemist" he added
but Edison has been down there
and knows every detail of this
proposition. He is working on
tlis thing right now in his labora-
tories at East Orange. He says that
with Muscle Shoals we can give the
American people a better fertilizer
at much lower price than they
have ever had before.
Why, if we can't make good
cheap fertilizer down there, why
does the fertilizer trust flood Con-
gress with statements that if we get
Muscle Shoals. we'll wreck the
monopoly? We're going to the
mat with them and make them
prove, before congressional COM
mittees, every statement they make.

10 lne iolioNlng letteD from the
above committee:
Jan. 8, 1922, 4
A year ago this fertile and ro-
tentially prospe 'ous region. the
cotton South, was force to curtail
cotton acreage in order TO avert
disaster.
Today we are facing a new con-
dition, but one that is none the less
difficult. The South is again on
trial. 1t will choose between tie
highway that leads to splendi
destiny, and tha. reverting to th
terrifying condition existent year
ago.
Cotton beckoned to Alexander
the Great to cross the Indus. and
Alexander Influenced civilization
perhaps more than any other ore
man with the exception of Christ;
Venice was once pre-eminent among
the cities Of the Earth-Venice, the
merchant, trading in the cotton
goods and ealicoes and fine muslins
of India; cotton inspired the in
dustrial Revolution, which made
England giant among nations
and drove Napoleon from the
blood-soaked fields of Europe to
die lonely exile at st. Helena.
Cotton was the strength of the
Saracen in Spain, an incentive to
Christopher Columbus, sailing west
ward, and to Vasco da CANA, doubl-
ing the Cape of Good Hope in
search of route to the East Indies.
Cotton was iood and clothing for
the living, the wings of the airplane
and dressing for wounds benevo.
lent to friends and the fallen foe,
but belching destruction upon tn
adversary-,in the great war. Cot
ton made the world war possible, il
iadeed the war itself was not the
direct outcome of commerc;a
jellousies growing out OF the cotton
trade.
Graded in India, cotton weaves
tangled thread of romance and
tragedy through the Ages. Since
the days of Rome, where cotton
manufacture predominata there
was enthroned world mastery. 1T
has built up people and has riyen
them apart. 1t has brought the
world vast and permanent wealth.
1t has enlisted the vision of states
men, the genius of inventors, the
courage Of pioneers, the fcrcefulness
of manufacturers, the inititave of
merchants and shipbuilders and
the patient toll of many millions. "
Cotton has been called the Fabric
of Civilization, but cotton has al
ways been pauper, produced in
drudgery and want, and under the
baneful influences of economic
slavery. Why? Too many cow
less. sowlsss and henless farms too
much reliance upon one crop, and
a wrctched credit system.
All enlightened OPT, in, friendly
to the cotton grower, is agreed that
a new crop of more than 10, ,000, 900
bales of cotton would be extremely
hazardous. The acreage planted
last spring was enough for crop Of
more than 100000 bales, under
average conditions.
The Southern Cotton Conference

Der 1918 issued solemn warning;
