Citing to Him Who Has.

UENAToR George ". Norris, of Nebraska, chair
~ man Of the senate COMMITTEES on agriculture
of the country regarding the facts of the proposed
lease by Henry Ford of the Muscle Shoals project
built by the government as a war necessity, in
which he says:
and propaganda spread over the country by real
estate boosters and others personally interested,
that many good citizens, farmers, farmers organi-
cations, and commercial and civic bodies have
urged congress TO accept without qualification the
offer Of Henry Ford to take over for one hundred
years the. war-built nitrate plants and appurten-
ances at Muscle Shoals, in Alabama, which cost
$50, 100000, and the ~uncompleted water power dam
on the Tennessee river in which the government
has invested Sl7, 100000, in all about Si07 o 10000.
Contrary TO a general idea Mr.. Ford does not
agree TO reduce the price of fertilizer one-half,
one-third or even at all, although he stipulates he
must have S per cent profit on the cost, whatever
that may be; he does not agree to reimburse the
government the additional $4,000 600 to $60,000,000
required to carry out his proposed contract, nor
does he in fact agree to pay 4 per cent interest
thereon for a lease for one hundred years of the
power dams and electrical equipment. For 5000,
900 he acquires public property worth many times
that amount, and exclusive use and control for
one hundred years of immense water power devel-
oped at government expense for about "a per cent
annual interest on the cost thereof, free Of regula.
tion, restriction o. control by any public author.
ity. He is exempt firm othe terms and provisions
of the National Water Power law passed two
years ago to protect and conserve the interest of
the public in the water power resources of the
nation, without obligation that any portion will be
used for municipalities or industries in the south,
but admittedly for the sole use of Mr.. Ford in
his own plants and his successors. He does not
pledge his personal fortune or estate to the faith
full Performance of any obligation assumed by the
corporation he will organize. He does not agree
to repay the government all future OUTLAWS for
repairs and maintenance and whatever alleged
public benefit proposed is not in any sense com
mensurate with the special and unusual privileges
sought for one individual or corporation.
whether the Muscle Shoals project is con-
trolled or operated by the government or by pri-
vate or quasi private concerns, the public interest
in a great navigable river and the water power
that follows the improvement of navigation, as
well as the products of plants constructed with
public funds, should be conserved, used and distrib-
uted for the common welfare"
