Crepe de chine Will continue to hold

MUSCLE SHOALS
The Battle of a Generation

The battle Of a generation impends
in Congress for Muscle Shoals, with
Henry Ford, the storm center, crying:
we have not yet begun to fight"
Preliminary skirmishes have been
bitter but indecisive. The Senate Ag-
ricultural Committee has rejected the
Ford offer; the House Military Com
mittee has brought in three reports,
one endorsing the Ford plan, another
approving it with notifications, and
third absolutely opposing it, Adj
vocates and opponents Of the Ford
proposal are as far distant as the
poles.
The government has already spent
s10i 100000 in developing Muscle
Shoals and an estimated 100000 900
additional must be spent before this

thankful unto Him and bless His name
We have come again to the sea-
son Of the year when, in accord
ance with the devout custom estab-
lished by our fathers more than
three centuries ago, we formally
set apart day Of thanksgiving
and praise TO Almighty God for
all His mercies and blessings.
We have every reason for thank
fulness. Our fields and orchards
and vineyards have yielded richly
Of their products. Our people have
been sober, industrious and stead
fast. Industry and enterprise
have translated the varied and I'M
limited resources of our common
wealth into wealth and happiness
for all who have had the initiative
and the capacity to do and achieve.
While we face a new day big with
many perplcxing problems, may
our faith in the integrity of
American institutions be redcdi-
Gated to the government which has
always symbolized the best that
has been achieved since the strug-
gle for representative government
began.
Therefore, by virtue of the au-
thority vested in me as Governor
of the State Of Michigan, hereby
Join the President Of the United
States in designating Thursday,

Not every one knows how to tell

voice; the drake never quacks. but
emits a sibilant sound described by
