Ford and the Muscle Shoal Plant An interesting aspect of the proposition made by Henry Ford to the government for a long time leas on the worka at Muicle Shoals hat to do with iti relation to government ownership. In the beginning the project was inflated as a government undertaking. Long before the war promoter! were at work, and considerable prop aganda was exploded, the objective being an appropriation in various sums from $10,000.(XlO upward, but at no time exceeding $20,000,000, through which a plant would be established for the generation of electricity and the fixation of atmospheric nitrogen through the water power to be developed from the Tennessee river. When the war came on this undertaking got under headway, stimulated by unlimited funds at the disposal of the secretary of war, who made such liberal provision for the enterprise that we now find somewhere in the neighborhood of $85,000, 000 invested and the work not yet complete. So much for the government's share in pro ceedings up to date. Henry Ford now offers to take over the whole plant for a term of not less than 99 years, at a stipulated rental, which will leturn a reasonable rate of interest on the in vestment. Mr. Ford also expects the govern--ment to expend an amount of respectable propor tion on the completion of the plant, and to allow the government, tuil and unrestricted use ot ail tt:e works, if tt is ever needed as part of the na tional defense. For his part, he will manufac ture fertilizer, power and other products that can be sold in the section to be served. : It is curiously noted that some of the most outspoken advocates of the Plumb plan are giv ing unrestricted endorsement to the Ford pro posal. If the government is competent to run all the railroads it does not own, it surely ought to get away with the managing of a fertilizer plant it does own. Also, if we are to distinguish between billionaires, is it to be on the line that divides the man who makes the flivver from the man who sells the gas that propels it? , How the Arms Conference Helped. , ' Signs of early benefits flowing from the arms conference at Washington already are manifest. One of them is the strengthening of foreign ex change. Yesterday sterling exchange was quoted at London at only SI cents below par, while French and other continental issues showed simi lar improvement. This is made possible by as . surance given the world that at least the expense of preparing for future wars is to be immediately minimized. Past wars must be settled for, be cause the debts have been incurred, but this cost to the producer's of the world' is hot to be in creased by the added burden of anticipating new wars and getting ready for them in advance. National comity is to rest on the broader and better basis of national honor and responsibility, sustained by good faith and not by force of arms. Other reasons may be assigned for the improve ment in the financial condition of the world, but the real reason is that as prospect of .War grows dimmer thea outlook for peace brightens, and business needs peace. .... '' One Order Too Strong. VV'hen the Federal Trade commission and former Attorney General Palmer were engaged in lopping off the tentacles of the meat packing octopus, they did the job a little too thoroughly for some of the people affected. The order as to unrelated industries was intended to squeeze the packers out of the fruit and vegetable business; this was achieved, with the unexpected result that refrigerator cars, owned by the packers and on. which Pacific coast fruit shippers formerly had relied, are now unavailable for the service of the fruit trade. A request to Attorney Gen eral s Daugherty that the order be modified to restore the cars to the fruit carrying trade is by Wm referred to the court. This is not of any especial importance, save as it emphasizes the need of being very careful when framing proclamations that . dissolve trusts and which have the effect and force of law. It is possible to overdo a good job. Evidence of Good Faith. ""President Harding has promptly moved to ihow the good faith of the United States in its pledges contained in the treaties soon to be sent to the senate. He has ordered that work of ex tending fortification in Guam and. the Philip pines be discontinued, and that other military or defense work in the status quo regions of the Pacific be held as it was. Activity at the navy yards on vessels that are to be scrapped is also suspended. The president means that when the treaties are laid before the senate there shall be no misinterpretation as to their meaning. To reduce armament means to reduce, according to Mr, Ifaidiiig. l tM iuim., atxkt t rtantti, hattrr, h,t he f,, net opi their program.

Civing Advice. City Commissioner unman' advice to the Chatiber ol Commerce to mind hi own busi ness and give lest advice to the city cuiitmUaion i bated upon the ammptin that the chamber it ovcr-zralout in its interest in city government and not sufficiently to in commercial and indus trial affairs. If that be true, the commiioner it right; otherwise he is not., It ia perfectly proper that the chamber should take an interest in city af fairs. It if its duty to do so, just at it it the du,ty of labor unions, improvement clubs and every other group of citizens. The city com mission it elected to operate the city's business, but the stockholders' have a right to receive re ports and give both advice and instructions. Ho city commission can rightly object to that, pro vided the advice or criticism is constructive and sincere. . Commissioner - Zimman't advice is timely when he remarks that the primary interest of a chamber of commerce is in commercial and in dustrial activities. Its interest in civic affairs is the same as that of any group of citizens; itf interest in business affairs is greater. The chamber has real problems of its own: New in dustries, cheap power, equitable freight rates, fair rentals, adequate industrial and commercial facilities. That is its special field, and as it occupies that to the fullest extent it is of great est service to Omaha. Buying Candy by Permit. Boston children have always had the name of being extremely precocious. It would be in teresting to hear their comments on the move ment to deprive them of the right to buy candy without the written permission of their parents. Dr. William Parker Cooke of the Harvard Den tal school lias just appeared before the public health commission of Boston in favor of a peti tion to limit in this way the sale of candy or sweetmeats to any child under 13 years of age. The teeth of our boys and girls are decaying because of over-indulgence in sugar, Dr. Cooke declared, and also because they are being fed '.'too sloppy foods." He contrasted the solid teeth of immigrants and ascribed them to the solid foods which they eat without sugar. O.f course, the candy manufacturers oppoe the bill, and declare that candy is not the cause of the defects. Not many persons, it is safe to say, would favor this new piece of regulation. Although there is no doubt that many school children who ought to be eating substantial lunches are spending their nickles and dimes for sweets and thus ruining their teeth, the duty to correct this belongs to the parents and not to the city, or state. , The New Republic, custodian of the public, conscience and the general weal, advises con sidering the New York barge canal as a substi tute for the Great Lakes waterway. It offers no figures to show that this canal could carry any considerable amount of the grain and other freight seeking a cheap outlet. Perhaps it would be unfair to assume that the New Republic, owned and published in New York City, does not speak for the middle west but only for the interests of the port monopoly. But the New Republic says worse things than that about the people with whom it disagrees. - An Omaha couple got married in less 'than two minutes, but it took over two months to get a divorce, showing the relative amount of time consumed by thetwoprocedings. If somebody doesn't hurry, foreign exchange will be stabilized long before an international bank can "be established. - Proceedings at the funeral of a murder victim indicate 4hat there are at least 30,000 unem ployed in Los Angeles. The German railroad strike ended as promptly as it began, showing the effect of dis cipline on the men. Nebraska can easily supply the world with $50,000,000 worfh of cqrn, and will take a repeat order, too. New York is all stirred up because an artist has displayed the painting of a nude girl. Why paint her? " 1 An Iowa man has caught a mouse that war bles like a canary. Yes,, he caught it in his cellar. Come on with your Wyoming pipe line. " That New England Conscience. Since Christmas, one of the stores, not a big department store, but one of the specialty storef of the city, has received by mail 20 different lots of money or postage stamps. In no cas is there the slightest clue to the identity of tht sender of the money or stamps, but in ever) case the money has been turned into the general fund to be added to the receipts of the Christmas time. Portland Press-Herald. f Figures Can Not Lie. Anyhow, the present styles in ladies' wearinp ;.ppare! have at last made an old adage com true. It is no longer possible for figures to lir . no matter how their owners feel about it, al though they might stretch the truth slightly. Seattle Argus.

How Tom Heflin Manages It. - a dire condition which Senator Tom Heflin of Alabama forecasts for those members of the legislative body to which he inexplicably belongs. "The American people," cries Senator Tom, "will lash 6ut of this chamber every man who casts bis vote for Newberry." - That would leave the senate of the United States a. dull and profitless body, indeed. Scarcely any uiio wuuiu dc mere save men or tne rienin type a sorry degeneration, clearly, of one of the world's greatest assemblages of statesmen in a century and a half. But perhaps the thing will not actually occur as Senator Tom believes. There must be ways of avoiding such a catas trophe to the country. For instance, it might be possible for the Newberry supporters to make sure of their re election by the favorite method of Heflin's con stituencydisfranchising everybody not known to be sure to vot for Tom and hi nAliital associates and their ideas. The Alabamans will never lash Mr. Heflin out of the senate. Tom won't permit them to get close enough to the ballot box on election day to do anything of the kind. St. Louis Times.
