Notifications

Washington.-Three separate re-
ports setting forth recommendation
for action by congress with respect
to private development of the govern
ment's $1O6.OOO,OOO power and nitrate
projects ut Muscle Shoals, Ala. were
made to the house Friday by members
Of the military committee.
Acting Chairman Mckenzie of Illinois,
who drafted the majority report, de-
clares at the outset of that document
that the Ford proposal was the only
one found "worthy of serious consid-
eration." and askes its acceptance by
the house; provided, however, that the
Gorgas steam plant be not included
among the projects to be sold.
Concurrence in the majority report,
except for the reference to the Gorgas
plant, Is voiced in one of the minority
op1nions. presented by Representative
Wright (Dem.) of Georgia and support
cd by Representatives James (Rep.)
OF Michigan and the remaining Demon
cratic members. They ask full COM
pliance by the house with all provi-
sions Of the Ford proposal, and point
out the belief that, If congress climates
the GOrgas unit, 1t would defeat the
Ford offer.
In third report. submitted by Rep
resentative Parker (Rep.) of New Jer-
sey and signed by Representative
rockingham (Rep.) of Massachusetts
the opinion is adverse to the accept
ance Of Mr.. Ford's offer. unless 1t ia
modified in other sections than that
dealing with GOrgas. In the event Mr.
Ford declined to agree to the modifi.
cation proposed, the slgners woulG
have the secretary OF war lease the
dams and nitrate plants ION sucf
terms as will secure the completion
Of the DAMS" and would authorize hin
to- settle fair value of the Gorgas plant
and convey the same to the Alabama
Power company"
In conclusion, the majority repor
says:
1.-TWO courses are open, one gov
eminent ownership and operation

project, would, in the judgementof tn
majority of his committee, mean dis

of China's afairsf.
President Ii Yuan-Hung issued his
first mandate shortly after assuming
office. appointing as premier WI Ting
Fang, former minister to the United
States, and since 1917 one Of the
strongest supporters Of the Canton
governments struggle against what 1t
termed the militarism Of the north.
It is understood that DR.. WI Ting
Fang has accepted the premiership. In
the meantime President Ii has desig-
mated DR.. w. w. Yen, former minister
under the last premier, LANG Ehih-
"a, to act as premier until DR.. Wu's
arrival from Canton.
The unification of China is declared
in Official circles here to have been
brought considerably nearer by WI
Ting-Fang's acceptance of the premier
ship. 1t is asserted that DR.. Sun Vat.
Sen, president of the republic of South
China, in whose structure WI has been
consistent pillar of strength, will be
unable much longer to maintain q
separate government.
Proponents of the reunited China
program count on WI to swing many

backing of large bloc of the revived

1t is expected that in the near flu
ure members of the old republican
parliament resident in Canton viii
come to Picking as the result Of Wu''
assumption of office as the head o
the cabinet.
WI Ting-Fang has been an activ'
enemy of the Picking government sine
1917, when Ii Yuan-Hung was fOrce'
out of the presidency by the militarist
and the republican parliament dissoly
ed. At that time he resigned the pre-
miership to throw the weight of hi
