MUSCLE SHOAL
CONTROVERSY
NEARING END
House VIII Vote On
Compromise Plan
Of Operation

WASHINGTON. Feb. 20-tFl-
The ten-year controversy over
Muscle Shoals came 70 another eli
max today. The house had before
II for a vote the compromise plan
for operating the governments
sl50.O00, 900 power and nitrate
plants on the Tennessee river In
Alabama.
Advocates or the measure. con-
fident the house would approve the
report, sought TO send II over 10
a friendly senate. Some Of them pro-
feSSed fear of a veto. however.
President Hoover has not revealed
his attitude and White House Off
Gals said, does not yet know what
Is in the report.
If both houses approve the COM
promise, 1t viii be the second time
during the ten years of c%ontrover-
sy that a Muscle Shoals measure
has been sent to the White House.
The other one two years ago re-
ceived a pocket veto from President
Coolidge. Unless II should pass
both the senate and house today.
the new measure will be subject to
similar action by President Hoover.
Although Muscle Shoals legisIa-
ton Of one kind or another has
been before congress since 1903, the
present controversy began after the
World war.
During the war the government
spent nearly $150.000.0 600 construct
ing plants for the production or ex-
plosives. hut they ware not COM
pleted until after the war was over
Since then congress has been
constantly debating what to do with
its tremendous investment. On the
one side were those advocating
government operation. on the other
those who wanted It 10 be leased 70
private interests. The resolution
which President Coolidge allow
ed to die provided for government
operation.
Virtually the same measure was
re-introduced in the senate by Sen.

completing the business which took him there he returned to Seattle to devote his attention to taric revision.
 Business conditions in the States, the Colonel observed, are decidedly on the up trend, particularly in the East, and it is expected that the country yil be back on a normal basis before fall. Contributing factors are the huge expenditures which are being made and which will continue to be made by the government during the course of the year. Numerous of the railroads and many large manufac- turing concerns also have outlined big programs of activity, involving the expenditure of huge sums and the employment of many workers who have been idle during the last winter On the whole, he says, the outlook is very assuring.
 The restoration of good times in the States is especially pleasing to the general manager because restored confidence Outside means more busi- ness for the Alaska Railroad, partic- ularly more tourist travel. Informa- ton obtained at tour agencies and from passenger representatives in

April 15, ara the joint through rates, effective April 2D. will have a varied increase from s0 to 67 per cent.
 Wath | view to giving encourage me11t to development of mining and farming. it w2s decided not to in- crease the ratez or mining machinery intended for new projects, or on farm implements The general manager also is given the privilege of grant ing special rates on export commocsi ties, such 2s coal. ore and other pro- ducts.
 The new passenger tariff, which provides for an increase of four cents per mile, making the new rate 10 cents instead of 6, will become effect i've March 20. Parlor car fares are to be increased 50 per cent; there will be an excess baggage increase of slightly more thAh Is per cent, and there will be 50 per cent increase in the charges for switching, train service, special engine service, demuc- rage and storage.
 The revision of freight tariffs for the area covered by the river steanner [ service operated by the Alaska Rail- road was accomplished in such a manner that deliveries can be made iy steamer at points beyond Nenara at virtually the same rates in effect during the last season. The first, second, third and fourth classified tions have been increased equal to. the Nenana rate, but the carload rates, which formerly were higher than the Nenana rate, have been reduced to the Nenana level, so that, on the whole, the charges will remain much as, they were before the tariff revi- Sion-
 It is the hope of Col. Ohlson that the new rates will be sufficiently ac- ceptable to lower river shippers to discourage competition by way of St. Mchael- The government service en- ables shippers to receive their spring supplies several weeks earlier than they could by the St. Michael route, and the service also is continued later in the fall than was possible in the old days before Nenana was connect ed with the coast by rail.
 Col. Ohlson devoted considerable time during his absence from head quarters in attempting to get Alaska coal into western, southwestern and southeastern Alaska, and he reports that thera is the promise of very ma tenial increase in the purchase of Alaska fuel by canneries and various government bureaus. The bureaus have given the assurance of hearty cooperation, providing the Alaska prices are right, which means that Alaska mine owners must be pre- pared to sell their products in com petition with outside mines, since all bureaus are required to award their fuel bids to the lowest bidders.
 Several Alaska canneries already have placed large orders for Alaska coal, the list including the Libby, Mo- Neil & Libby Co, Alaska Packers, San Juan and others. The outlook for the coming season is regarded as most encouraging, with steadily in- cre.sing volumes of sales in prospect. ! Colonel Ohlson spent two and a half months at Washington and after

Under this provision, 1t was agreed by

Canadian Ships Plan
Extra Honolulu Stop

Expansion of the Canadian Pacific
steamship service through the port of
Honolulu is being planned by the
Canadian Pacific Railroad headquarters
at Montreal and Vancouver.
At the present time the Canadian
Pacific steamers touch Honolulu only
on the western voyage from Vancouver
to Oriental ports. A trial sailing, which
touches Honolulu on the east-bound
trips, was announced some time ago,
this to take place for four Summer
months--May, June. July and August.
Though the time has not yet come for
these more or less experimental trips,
the announcement was so well received
by the tourists that the company now
has in prospect putting Honolulu on as
a regular port of call for both east and
west bound sailings.
This is another step in the very rapid
development of passenger travel on the
Pacific. Five great ompanies-Matsofl

tiquity as a symbol (heraldic) in Ireland
and consequently its probable dertva-
ton from the shore of the Mediterra-
mean. This symbol is Of common &C.
currence In North America"
"Burkes General Armory" gives the
origin Of the O'Neill's arms as follows:
when the sons of Milesius (who bore
the three lions on his shield) were
about landing from the large ships
which had borne them from Spain to
ireland. it was agreed that he whose
hand first touched the shore should
be acknowledged as ruler. One Of the
sons whose small boat was tagging be-
hind, drew his sword, and cutting of
his left hand, threw it to the shore
thus obtaining superiority. This is the
tradition among the O'Neills who had
borne the Red Hand for ages"
Whether we agree with this story OF
notr-and it Is not more improbable than
many things we read in other histories
