fertilizer PLANT
TO GET $3,9D0,0()D
Tentative Allotment for
Shoals Project Announced
by DR.. Morgan.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
DR.. Arthur E. Morgan, chairman Of
the Tennessee Valley Authority, has an
nounced the tentative ALLEGATION Of
between S3,500,000 and S4000,000 for
construction of the proposed fertilizer
plant at Muscle Shoals
DR.. Morgan said the ALLEGATION was
conditioned on the result of expert
ments being conducted here and at the
nitrate plant at Muscle Shoals. The
announcement followed conference at
the White House yesterday when di-
rectorS of the Tennessee Valley Author
ity met with President Roosevelt.
Manufacture of fertilizers from nitro
gen produced by the wartime Muscle
Shoals munitions plant was provided
for in the act creating the authority.
The announcement. given without de-
tails, was the frs: indication Of the
plan for fertilizer production.
Land Purchase Sought.
Morgan said the directors asked the
President for $4,000, 900 to $4,000, 900 to
purchase land in the region about the
new Norris Dam, for public park and
erosion control purposes.
David E. Lilienthal, power director Of
the authority, said he expected to start
construction work next week on the
transmission line connecting Norris
Dam with Muscle Shoals.
Most of the conference. Morgan said,
was given over to discussion with the
President of how the S50,000.000 given
the authority would be distributed
among various enterprises.
Present plans call for expenditure
of S34, 900 900 on construction of Norris
Dam, s7.000,000 on the transmission
line and s3,5oo,o to s4,000,000 on the
fertilizer works, with the remaining
S8000,000 paying administrative ex-
penses and financing minor phases
of the valley social and economic ex-
pertinent.
Morgan said the Norris Dam project
was under way now, and expressed hope
that 1000 men would be employed on
this and the power line construction
before Christmas.
Discord Rumors Heard.
The directors assembled today amid
rumors of discord between Morgan and
persons close to the administration due
to the chairman's criticism of patronage
and allegations that the valley program
was getting under way too slowly. but
no indication was given after the White
House conference that the differences
Of opinion had been discussed.
Postmaster General Farley, patronage
dispenser, apparently has been disturbed
over Morgan's criticism Of the political
factor in appointments to Government
positions. but he has declined to talk
for publication.

gan pictured Senator's and Representa-
tives going from office to Office seeking

FOSSILS SHOW
FIRST Of TYPE
IN TROPICS
Woodward Tells Scientists
Of Deposits ExCaVated
In Dark Continent

Modern man seems to have
originated in Africa.
This was the gist Of a paper
read today by A. s.. woodward
before the international Geologic
Congress, in which he summed up
geologic theory on the antiquity
Of Homo Sapiens, whose descen-
dants are creatures who today
Comprize the human population
Of the world.
Scientist Woodward said that
Eoanthropus, whose skull caused
a furore when it was dug up in
Piltdown, England, lived in the
times of a certain type Of hippo
potamus and that if he wanted
to he could get playful with an
elephant larger than the ordinary
mammoth"
This old.timer was shipping
flints just about the time that
SinanthropuS, or the Peiping
man, was skinning his tough
knuckles on flints in China.
From deposits in Africa equally
as old, in which remains of these
two happy creatures were found,
remains of Homo Sapiens have
been found in Africa. This find.
ing, with the variability Of Mean
Nerthal man as seen in various
remains in Middle Europe, seem
to show that he was then on the
verge of extinction, and that mod
ern man first popped up in Africa.
The geologic age in which man
first made his bow in North
America is being showed back,
principally through the finding of
early implements and skeletal
remains close to animals, such as
ground sloths, previously thought
to be extinct by the time man
arrived, j. C. Merriam today told
the International Geologic Con-
gress here.
Bernum Brown explained to
the Congress that excavations
near Folsom, New Mexico, re-
vealed that about 10000 years ago
man there was making arrows
Of a distinct type" indicating a
cultural stage.
Time of the upheaval which
caused the tremendous upthrust
of earth which produced the
Appalachians is causing geologists
much study. Speaking before the
International Geological Congress
today. Arthur Bevan, said the
recent discovery of overthrusts
in the chain throw doubt on the
theory that mountains resulted
from a single geologic event.
It now appears, he said, that
several distinct causes in different
time periods were responsible for
the mountains.

Sunrise Cannon and Bugle Call Is Boy Patroit's s
Greeting to Sleeping Neighbors
He Couldn't Go to Camp
So He Starts One
In Backyard

Residents of the 1900 block of
Seventh St. N. w. are growing
accustomed to awakening to the
roar of cannons (toy) and the
piercing call Of a bugle.
The neighborhood has been
placed on a military regime by
Charles Young, 13, a Boy Scout
and ardent patriot.
Young Charles starts the day
off for the street with proper
military ceremonies. Promptly at
1880 every morning his bugle sum-
mons the boys (and many of their
elderS) to his back yard. A flag
pole has been erected by Charles
and he has fashioned from a bit
of pipe and a block Of wood a
cannon. His ammunition is fire
crackers.
When the gang has assembled
Charles calls them to attention,
fires his salute and unfurlS the
flag. The same ceremony is re-
peated at night when Old Glory
is hauled down.
His mother, Mrs. C. M. Young,
says Charles learned the stunt
last summer while at the Boy
Scout camp. He couldn't go to
camp this year but he was deter
mined to put into practice the
patriotic lessons learned. Neigh
bors like the idea, now that they
have been convinced the street
isn't being attacked daily by
gangsters with machine guns.
