the hope that the headquarters would

the present plan under which its work
is carried on. The proposal of Massa-
chusetts delegates to consolidate the
offices of executive secretary and edu-
cational director and place the admin
istration of the duties of both offices
under a national director was defeated
upon recommendation of the bylaws

ness session to hold conventions in

ASK PROMPT LEASE
Of SHOALS POWER
War Department Officials
Urge Employment of Will
son Dam Output.

Questions affecting the leasing of
hydroelectric power developed at
Muscle Shoals, Ala, to private CON
Germs have been drafted by the War
Department. The first guiding prin-
ciple outlined is that the power of
the Wilson dam should be utilized in
useful work as soon as the power is
availa BILE.
The policy asserts that since the
Muscle Shoals problem is before Con-
gress for solution any arrangements
that may be made by the War De-
partment for the use of the power
should be Of temporary character
and subject to immediate revocation,
II necessary. 1t also stipulates that
no rights should be given a contrac-
tor or lessee which would interfere
with the permanent solution.
The main objective at Muscle
Shoals is regarded by the department
at this time to be the early compile
tion of the Wilson dam, and that
other construction work should not
be allowed unduly TO interfere with
that in progress at the dam For this
reason it is held to be undesira Bile
to have more than one lessee Of the
power and to require the lessee to
furnish trained personnel for the op-
GRAFTON of the hydro-electric plant
Other stipulations entering into
the tentative policy statement in
clude the electrical connection Of the
Wilson dam and the nitrate plant
the availability of power for the par
tial operation OF nitrate plant No. ?.
and the treatment of the steam plant
at nitrate plant No. 2 and the hydro
electric plant at Wilson Dam as a
unit. This unit should be recognized
in any temporary arrangement the
department may make for the dis
posal of the power.
President Coolidge's Muscle Shoals
Commission met today in executive
session, directing its attention to in
formal discussion among the mem
bers. No witnesses were summoned
before it.
