unit includes development ol the
rropcrty as a model and the everw
tital cktcnion of the system to olh
tr pari of the country.
Mr. Ford' proposal includes the
luildma ol a city 7$ mile long in
the Muscle Shoal region. It would

line with the manufacturer' view
that men and their families houlj

benefit of rural or near-rural lit?
uould not be entirely lot.
00-Year Lease.
Mr. Ford's proposal to the covcrti
nient includes lessing of the property
for 100 year. But before the expira
tion of half that tune he proposes to
turn the completed project over to
the people of the district or to the
Hovernment in such a way that no
one in the future will be able to
make -a personal profit from the un
dertaking. lie will arrange that
neither lie nor any of his heir may
realize any monetary benefit from
the Muscle Shoals plants or the
power developed, it became known
today.
Mr. Ford proposes to jnake the
project, if the government gives its
content, the outstanding achievement
of his career.
The Muscle Shoals project is, how
i ver, only the start of a greater pro
gram, it became known. This in
i iudes the development of water
power facilities in many parts of the
country by which persons in those
communities would derive power to
run manufacturing plants, light their
homes and run machinery on the
f irms. One detail of the plan is the
narnessing by larmcrs ot every
creek and brook that crosses their
property. Enough power is waste!
cm these small streams to operate the
farm machinery and to light farm
:.uildings, Mr. Ford believes.
To Confer With Week.
Mr. Ford expects to leave liere
.bout noon tomorrow for Washing
ten to confer with Secretary Weeks
regarding his proposal. He will be
accompanied by his engineers and
other who have made a close study
of the proposal.
If the government accepts his bid,
work at Muscle Shoals will be start
ed at once. vThe nitrate and other
plants would be run by steam power,
pending the time the great dam, that
will require about two years to com
plete, has harnessed the water at
this point. Then would follow rapid
development, in the opinion of Mr.
Ford, until within a comparatively
few years an industrial center great
er than Detroit would have been
built up. .
Mr. Ford believes the Muscle
Shoals.plan, if consummated, will be
the start toward development of the
Mississippi river valley. The manu
facturer believes this valley could
"run the United States" if the water
now going to waste could be utilized.
Eventually, in Mr. Ford's opinion,
the government could derive enough
revenue from these power projects
to support itself, thereby revolution
izing the financial system of the !
country. ;

State police were planning to leave

request of authorities who said they
feared an outbreak against members
of the faculty of the Wadestown high

McKelvie Has
Plan to Reduce
: State Expense
Reduction in Land ' Commis.
pioncr's Apptfbpriation
Will More Than Pay the
Cost of Special Session.
Lincoln. Tan. 11. (Special.) -Dan
Swanson, state .land commissioner,
announced today that he was ready
to withstand an $18,000 reduction in
appropriations for his office at the
hands of the special session.
The savings from this one office
will more than pay the cost of the
special session, which, it is estimat
ed, cannot be more than $15,000,
and if a corresponding reduction
were made by all state departments
it would mean a cut in 1922 appro
priations of more than $2,000,000.
In some offices such a large re
duction , is not possible. However,
Governor McKelvie reiterated to
day that the legislature would re
duce appropriations at least $1,000,
000 in addition to removing $1,000,
000 more in taxes from real property
by the gasoline tax.
The governor stated today that
any action taken to change the state
guaranty law would be on the ini
tiative of state bankers and if plans
were submitted to the banking com
mittees of the house and senate for
a revision of these laws they prob
ably would be decided upon at the
meeting of state bankers in Omaha
January 18.
"There is just one assurance I
wish to make and that is that what
ever changes are made in the guar
anty law they will not weaken it,"
the governor said. "It is up to the
bankers whether they wish to han
dle the banking business and the
losses through failures the same in
the future as in the past."

We are also opposed to the railing of

gasoline tax as proposed by the governor.
Oppose Repeal of Law.
A resolution calling? for the rental
oi ine Aaamson eight-hour law was
smothered under an adverse vote
after a speech by Mr. Shroyer, who
asserted that the wages ol railroad
labor were not responsible for high
fryight rates, and tliat freieht rates
are not at the basis of the present
iow prices ot tarm stutts. An amend
ment to the report callinsr for the
establishment of a euaranterd nrire
or a Diishei tor wheat on the
Chicago market threatened trouble,
but was eventually laid aside on the
table. Two other resolutions also
lost, one proposing to bar nonmem
bers shipping their stock to the
Farmers' Union agencies from divi
dends, and the other, proposed by
Frank Myers, manager of the Farm
ers Union exchange, ordering the

A set of resolutions equally drastic
was introduced at the night meeting
by Mr. Shroyer, as secretary of the
legislative committee, of which
Charles McLeod of Stanton is chair
man, - These also condemn the gaso
line tax and the special session and
oppose any amendment of the bank
guarantee act. v ,
Fight Road LawJ
One of the proposals -most en
thusiastically received condemned
the present system of financing fed
eral aid roads, by. which the state
puts up half and the federal govern
ment half. This is held to en
courage wastefulness and to r.su't
in constricting state highways whei
what the farmers most desire is a
network of shorter" ; roads centering
at their market towns. A new di
vision of automobile license money
by whioh the counties will receive the
larger part of the funds and the state
about 25 per cent, instead of 75 per
cent as at present, also was urged.
Other legislative resolutions adopt
ed follow: for amendment of the
Esch-Cummins law to remove the
guarantee to the railroads; state con
trol of all rates within : the state; !
limiting salaries of land bank officers
in proportion to the -value of their
services: law permitting car door
marketing of merchandise and pro
duce: congratulating Senator JN orris;
taxing public utilities at their valua
tion used in rate making; state aeveir

of Alb on and W.. F. Stolz of Mil
ford will push the proposals of the
Farmers union before the legislature.
The retinnsr secretary of this com
mittee, J. N. Norton of Polk county,
m a speech called on tne tarmers to
put their candidates on record on all
issues. Mr. JNorton, who has recent
lv been elected president of the Ne
braska Farm Bureau federation, has
been prominently mentioned ,. as a
democratic candidate for governor.
He reviewed the last legislative ses
sion and stated that most of what
the farmers asked had been given
them there. - -,
' The proposal to hold the conven
tion next year at Lincoln during tne
legislative session was narrowly de.
feated after Ray Van Orsdell, repre
senting th Omaha Chambr ot t-om-
mrce, had made an address inviting
the farmers to come again to Uma.
ha.
Mrs. Margaret Crisler of Table
Rock was the only woman delegate
attending the convention.' In recog
nition of this, W. H. Campbell of
Frontier county, chairman ot the
committee on the good Of the order,
suggested that an effort be made to
bring more women to the meeting
next year. . '
A telegram inviting President Os
born to speak before President Hard
ing's conference on agricultural and
suggest remedies for the present sit
uation in the wheat regions was re
ceived during the heat of the fight
for his re-election. The convention

Eamon De V'alrra informed the
correspondents that be belirvtd his
party would ignore the Saturday
itirctintr of the parliament. In r-
snout. to an innuirr lie said he iu
(ended to continue the futht for in
dependence; he supposed elections
would Le held within six or nine
months.
Such elections, he added, like the
signing of the treaty in London,
would be held under British threat
of renewal of warfare, and therefore
he could not accent the verdict as
the uncoerced will of the people.
Bif Line of Cleavage.
'There u a bisr line of cleavage,'
he said, "between those standing for
dependence and those for Indcpcud
enre."
Never would he, under any condi
lions, take the oath of allegiance coir
tained in the treaty. Alluding ta
the Irish reoublic bonds, he de
c'ared they would be redeemed by
whatever government was establish
ed, and added that a meeting ot the
leaders of the Smn rem party wouiu
be held tomorrow to consider the
general position.
An important development today
was the issuance of a manifesto by
Ihe Irish labor party, stating that
labor would participate ia the elec
tions to secure representation in the
new free state government. The
method adopted in summoning those
who are to ratify the treaty is held
to indicate that the British desire to
avoid friction in the transference of
the authority. Instead of acting di
rectly, the British government acted
through the dail cabinet, leaving the
('ail to initiate execution of 4he
treaty. "
