Governor Small's Statement
Administration leaders in the
Capital had hoped to stave It OH
until the opening Of the new Con-
gress in March, when Senator
Smiths elective term will start. In
making the appointment Governor
Small said:
Eat the general election on the
second Of last month. after an ex.
haustive campaign, in which All
issues involved and the qualltica-
tons Of all candidates were thor
oughIy discussed and considered, the
people of Illinois chose Frank L:
Smith by decisive vote for United
States Senator.
"In the six weeks that have
elapsed since that date not charge
or suspicion Of undue influence OF
corruption at that election has
been made.
1T was fair and general cleo
ton. The large vote cast for Frank
L. Smith shows conclusively that he
is the choice Of the voters of this
great State for United States Senator
and in obedience to that expression
OF the people OF Illinois, I appoint
him to represent this State in the
United States Senate for the unex-
pired term of the late Senator Viii

SHOALS

With Henry Ford, the multi-Elil-
Honaire auto king, reported ready
to renew his bid for the Govern
ment's $3.50, 000,O 900 Muscle Shoals
project, Administration leaders to-
day sought to reconcile the diff
ferences between the House and
Senate over the Coolidge resolu-
ton, creating a Congressional
commission to negotiate lease
for the property.
The Senate adopted the resolu-
tion, after adding four amendments
TO it, which were intended to
assure adjoining communities and
States an equal share in the dis
tribution of surplus power from
project. These amendments must
be adopted by the House before
the commission, composed of three
Senators and three Representa-
tives, can be appointed.
Early Report Required
AS approved by the Senate, the
resolution read: 1.-THE committee
is authorized and directed to con-
duct negotiations for a lease or
leases of the nitrate and power
properties of the United States DIT
Muscle Shoals, Ala, including the
quarry properties at Waco, Ala,
for the production of nitrates
primarily and incidentally for power
purposes, such power to be equit-
ably distributed among the COM
inunities and States to which 1t
may be properly transported, in
order to serve national defense,
agriculture, and Industrial purposes,
and upon terms which, so far as
possible, shall provide benefits to
the Government and to agriculture
equal to or greater than those set
forth in H. r. SIS. Sixty-eighth Con-
gress (Which accepted the original
Ford Offer, except that the lease
or leases shall be for a period not
to exceed so years"
The commission would have to
file report by April 26, this year.
Talk of Ford renewing his offer
for the project was heard through
out the Capitol. His original offer
was rejected by Congress because
the Detroit auto king insisted upon
n hundred-year lease. Rumor now
has 1t that Ford Is willing to
negotiate a fifty-year lease other
reports, however, were current that
the Alabama Power Company and
the American Cyanimide Company
would make bids.
