a $10O.O0O,0O0 investment, with tremend-
GUS possibilities for peaceful enterprise, but
producing nothing. The government has
seen no way to utilize 1t with propriety,
hence has awaited u satisfactory offer from
private capital for its sale.
Under MIR. Ford's proposals the govern
ment will have to accept a heavy loss on the
nitrate plant, as 1t has had to do on prac-
tically all It's war equipment. IL tho con-
tract with Mr.. Ford Is carried out, the gov
eminent ultimately will recover all that It
has spent. or is TO spend, on the water
power plant. But the primary inducement
Tor acceptance OF the offer is not the return
or the money invested. but the utilization OF
this great plant for the public benefit. AS
the chief source OF fertilizers nitrate is alb
solutely necessary to agriculture. without
nitrogen. OF which cultivation for many
years robs the soil. there is no fertility, aud
this has to be supplied by fertilizers con-
tanning it. 1t is. therefore, a matter OF the
utmost Importance to the agricultural well
lare or the country that there be a sufn-
cseht supply OF nitrates for fertilizer pur-
poses at the lowest possible cost Under
the terms OF the contract Mr.. Ford submits
this plant In fun operation will contribute
enormously TO that supply. At the same
time, II provides for the operation of the
plant for the needs OF war, should this
country be forced into war again
Inc Ford oner is the hest that has been
made for the plant. and the prospect OF i'm
mediate and practical results to follow
would seem to be quite sufficient to Justify
It's approval by Congress.
