CALLS FORD OFFER
UNREASONABLE

WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.-Henry
Ford's offer for the Muscle Shoals
projects was declared "Unconscion-
able" by Senator Harreld, of Okla
homa, O. Republican member of the
senate agriculture committee, in a
letter today to Gray Silver. of the
American farm bureau federation.
"In my judgment this is an un-
considerable contract as far as the
people of the United States are con-
cerned and cannot favor it," said
Senator Harreld. II am not averse
to leasing this power to Mr.. Ford
but cannot favor leasing it under
such terms as these in the Ford
offer. Especially do I oppose the
making Of such a lease for 100
years."
Senator Harreld said that 'in a
nutshell" Mr.. Ford's proposal
amounted to turning over to the
Detroit manufacturer the Muscle
Shoals property plus scores Of resi-
dences and town property worth
many millions Of dollars without
any cost whatever to Mr.. Ford. u
Senator Harreld said Mr.. Ford of,
fered $5,000,000 for property worth
more than that SUM excluding the
city property.
None Of the various propositions
before the committee were satisfac-
tory to me, hence I did not vote
for any of them," the senator said.
my position is that the government
must finish this dam under any
hof on
it's own expense. It will require
three years to do so and feel that
within that period we can make a
much better contract than any OF
those proposed"
Regarding the offer made by Mr..
Ford, the senator said:
For his 100 years use of the
| two dams which the government
will build he proposes to pay 4 per
cent of the amount invested in
fl jshing the dams and what, in my
| judgment, is only a part of the &C.
| tual cost of upkeep of the two
dams.
I'm fact I think it will take all
that he would pay to the govern
ment in cash under his contract to
hScp up LCpdAL OlA IAlC wv OoAAAo: AAS
continued. Then he will practical
ly get the power generated by these
dams for 100 years by paying for
the upkeep.
"It is true he agreed to use the
capacity of plant No. 2 in the
production Of fertilizer which he will
sell for per cent profit and viii
only charge for the power in making
the price equal to the cheapest power
available. Virtually then he is get
ting this immense power general ID
by the two dams, for an agreement
on his part to keep plant No.
running in the making Of fertilizers
so long as he can make it and sell
il in the markets at per cent profit
which may be one year or five years
or twenty years. There are many
states in the union that will use more
fertilizer than he proposes to manu-
facture under the terms of this con
tract. He would have absolutely
free, under the terms Of this con
tract, the entire power of the two
Muscle Shoals dams, built at the ex
pense of the government, for one
hundred years, for practically what
| II will cost to keep it up"

AS the result of a conversation be.

representing the allied commander
IN chief, and General Vlachohoulos,
commander Of the Greek army in
Thrace, an understanding was reach

three kilometers (1.2 miles, beyond
the present neutral zone, thus avoid
ing possible clashes. Though a fort
night has passed since the Greeks
concentrated on the Tchataldja line
and in spite of the assurance Of the
Athens government that the Hellenic
army will not advance without the
consent of the allies the Greeks keep
their army in such formation that

This belief has been strengthened
recently by the speech made by
Prime Minister Lloyd George, which
produced a tremendous impression
in Greece. Thousands Of copies were
distributed among the soldiers whose
morale was greatly raised by the
British prime minister's flattering
appreciation. The speech was not
appreciated to an equal degree by
the Turks or most of the allies In
Constantinople.
It is reported that General Har-
rington, chief commander of the al
lies in Constantinople, who, without
consulting Lloyd George, issued a
proclamation forbidding the Greeks
to cross the neutral territory, will
soon return to England. The French
are still strongly opposed to the &C.
cupation of Constantinople by the
Greeks and they have decided that
should Great Britain consent to such
an occupation they would oppose
this with all the available French
troops.
Naturally much of what occurs
here depends upon the developments
