Shoals has gained strength, but 1t is not believed that a majority of the members will sponsor it tomorrow.
 Oppose Norris Plan.
 Senator Kendrick, who will not vote for the Ford offer. win likewise oppose the Norris scheme. If re- ports are accurate. 1t Is understood that he will take the broad position that pending further developments, the government complete Wilson dam and remain ouiescent. Without the vote of Senator Kendrick the Nor ris scheme cannot prevail.
 It Is understood today that Senator Page. who Is absent. will vote by proxy against the Ford offer tomor- row. Last night he wired Chairman Norris that he should not be paired against the Ford offer as he was not well enough posted, due to his ab- sence on account of illness. to vote intelligently. During the day, how ever, such pressure by republicans was brought to bear that the under standing Is that he will permit him self to be paired against Ford. At the same time from democratic sources telegTams were sent to Page today declaring that were he. after hls telegram Inst night, to vote to- morrow he would subject himself to considerable criticism.
 The effect of the committee ac- ton, whatever 1t might be, will be minor. The main fight will come on the floor the next session of Congress.

 Property
By FRED H. ooRMLEy

Montgomery Bureau, The -Age-Heraid, 2e1-2 First National Bank Building Montgomery, July 14.-(Special.) Urgent protests against the inclusion of the Gorgas steam plant and the government extension in any rec ommendation for the acceptance of Henry Ford's offer for Muscle Shoals was made to Senator George w. Norris, chairman of the Senate committee of agriculture, in. tele- gram sent by Governor Kilby late Friday.
 Governor Kilby told the commit tee the Gorgas plant and extension are not necessary for the operation of the nitrate plants and the Gorgas plant is necessary for the operation of industries which have been con- structed with the view of obtaining power from the Gorgas development Governor Kilby placed himself on record several weeks ago as being opposed to the inclusion of the Cor gas pioHe Odh DeAhB oP- posed to the sale of the Muscle Shoals property to the Alabama Power company. He has declared himself as in favor of Henry Ford's offer for Muscle Shoals after the Gorgas development has been di- vorced from the Muscle Shoals prop critics.
 Text of Message
 Governor Kilby's telegram to Sem ator Norris follows:
 T desire to register my earnest protest against the inclusion of tho Gorgas steam plant of the Alabama Power company and the extension built for the government as part of this plant during the war in any recommendation made by your com mittee for the acceptance by Con- gress of the Ford offer for the Muscle Shoals properties.
 Lands Power Company
 This plant is sS miles from Muscle Shoals, is not a part of the Muscle Shoals property and is not necessary to the operation of the ni- trate plants. A large part of the industry of Alabama has been built dependent upon the operation by the Alabama Power company of the Cor gas plant in connection with It's other plants and in support thereof. During low water period on the Coosa river. where the main water power pant of the Alabama Power company Is located. the Gorgas steam plant supplied more than 50 per cent of the power used by cities. towns industries and power and lighting customers on the system of the Ala bama Power company.
 The use of the @orsgas plant un- der the circumstances includes in ad- dition to the original plant built by the Alabama Power company the extension built for the government during the war, this entire plant being necessary for the support of the system of the Alabama Power company during low water periods. moral contract by the government should be as binding as a legal one. It this plant. were taken. away from the system of the Alabama Power company, 1t is inevitable great in convenience and confusion would re- suit to the public served by the Ala ha ma Power -company in Alabama"

The government. Senator Cupimlns held, can compel obedience to ru.- ings of the board. notwithstanding that the transportation act provides no penalties.
 Senator CummIns was in confer ence with President Harding at the White House for nearly an hour late today. After the conference he said that while he was optimistic, he could see no way at present out of the tangled situation" which he re- garded as critical.
 Advisibality of enacting legisla- tion perfecting the transportation act was understood to have been dis cussed by the President and Senator Cummins. The latter. on leaving tha White House. said several amend ments were needed, particularly one which would more clearly deflne what comprised a reasonable wage award on the part of the railroad labor board. Senator Cummins agreed that no legislation could be enacted until the House reconvened August l5. Meanwhile. he said. the existing law sEonid prove adequate.
