Senator Harreld, re- publican, Oklahoma, moved in tho committee meetings today to pros idle s7,S00,000 to finance work for one year, beginning July l, by amending the army bill.
 The committee also decided to be- gin hearings Monday on the proposa of Henry Ford, the Ala abama Power company, Frederick E. Engstrum ana Charles l.. Parsons for Muscle Shoals development. Army officers now n charge of the properties involved will be sought as the first witnesses of the inquiry.
 It was apparent by statements of Senator Norris and other committee men that the existing session of Congress would be unable at least so far as the Senate was concerned to act Oh any of the private offers pending before the agriculture and House military affairs committee for decisions. Senator Norros declared ths Senate could not act upon a resolu- tion accepting the Fora or other pro posals within six months and pointed out the congested condition of the Ia II Ia fxr Ia |, of members to return home as soon as possible to enter the fall cam paign.
 Study Bids Individually
 Chairman Kahn of the House com- mittee requested the members of tha body today to begin individually careful analysis of the four prfvat te proposals before they undertook to determine the plan for proceedings next Monday when executive sessions will begin. Mr. Kahn said the com mittee would summon Henry Fofd personally and the proponents of the other bids before final decision was reached respecting it's decision be- tween the offers and their presenta- tion to the House.
 Each of the bidders" Mir. Kahn added, will be given an opportunity to appear in person and give the com mittee his last word before a decision is reached as to the respective merits of the proposals and their makers"
 Senator Norris told the agriculture members today that he expected 10 present bill for their consideration in connection with the offers already made. The senator said he proposed to have the government complete the Muscle Shoals properties and operate them under government owned and controlled corporation.

dressing will be In vogue in keeping
with long dresses and high heels. Elk
ira pieces will be worn and the hair
will be a little off he ears and many
will be worn. The loving cup
for the best hair dress went to Mrs.
Spirro OF Boston. The style executed
by her was for evening wear with a
fan comb. It is the purpose OF the as
ISOLATION to originate styles and te
create fashions, not TO use the for
