WEEKS MAY SELL
SHOALS POWER To
PEOPLE Of SOUTH

WASHINGTON. Nov. 19.-Secre-
tary Weeks disclosed today that he
was taking steps to ascertain the
scope of his authority to contract
for the temporary disposition Of
power generated at the Muscle
Shoals nitrate plant, should congress
fail to make final disposition of the
plant prior to the completion of the
power units. The war secretary is
confident that if he has legal power
to do so, he can make advantageous
contracts with nearby power COM
panleS to take the bulk of the power
output which is to be developed.
The power plants at Muscle Shoals
are rapidly nearing completion and
unless congress acts during the com
ing short session upon pending leg
islatiOn to make final disposition of
the whole project, the war secretary
faces the probability that he will
/ have on his hands completed power
units which must stand idle unless
he has authority to operate them and
lease the output or to lease them
/ for operation.
! He, therefore, has asked Ma or
+ General Hull, the judge advocat e
! general of the army. to furnish him
with an opinion as to his legal pow
ers.
If that opinion should hold that
! he has not the authority to make
such temporary contracts for power
! as he has III mind, Mr.. Weeks prob.
ably will ask congress to confer the
| power upon him by resolution when
it appears that the Muscle Shoals
legislation is not to be completed
during the short session.
While there may be some diff
Guilty about finding temporary mar
kets for all Of the power the Muscle
/ character usually mean that the
power companies are known to be
| prepared to take a very large part
of it, The form of contract for such
leases would be for short term of a
year or so, the contracts containing
a reVOcable clause which could be
applied in the event Of an unexpect.
ed development at any time for the
/ permanent disposition of the whole
/ plant. Short term contracts Of this
price received for the power WoulC
price received for he power would
be a little less than could be obtani
! ed on q long term lease without the
revocable feature except in cases OF
national emergency.
Mr.. Weeks has noticed that with
the approaching opening of the short
session of congress, and with the
! Muscle Shoals legislation first in or
! der of business on the senate calen.
dar, there has been a revival of talk
about the Muscle Shoals project
manifested by the number of callers
at his office who mention that sub
ject.
He had an appointment today
with Elon II. Hooker, of New York,
one of the men interested in one
of the many bids now before con.
/ sress. The war secretary also has
heard that a member Of the senate
/ has evolved an entirely new plan
! with relation to Muscle Shoals since
( congress adjourned, but he refused
/ to give either the name Of the sena-
/ tor or the nature of the new plan so
ln l.
