THE SENATOR DOES WELL N explanation of why he voted ajrainst acceptance of the "grab" oiler of Henry Ford tor Muscle Shoals has been made by Senator Charles L. McNarv in a letter which he iias sent to W. E. Kimseysecretary of the Central Labor Coun ' cil of Portland. The letter was in reply to one of criticism for las attitude and vote on the Ford oner. There is some truth about Henry Fordcreeping through his Darrage 01 propaganda which the public should understand. The Ford machine is all oiled, and it is said to be functioning very wen now wrtn me iaea in mina 01 launcmng tienry ior president in 1924. The senator's reply is well worth reading, it Is also worth thinking about. Then it might not be a bad idea to cut out that letter and keep it for reference, because there is likely to be a lot more about this affair before the country is much older. , v "It grieves me to do any act that invites the censure of the labor council. In this instance, I feel confident that your disap proval will give way to approval when you and the members of your council make a thorough analysis of Mr. Ford's offer, and I should be .happy if the council would withhold its censure un til an opportunity has been given for a careful reading of the re port concurred in by a majority of the senate members of the committee on agriculture, which I am enclosing under separate cover. "The propaganda favorable to the acceptance of the Ford proposal has exceeded anything of that character which has oc curred since I have been a member of the senate, and for that reason, much misinformation and considerable misrepresenta tion calculated to deceive has been sent over the country. There is no man, or group of men living, or corporation, to whom I would give a lease for 100 years to a great water power which belongs to all the people. Private gain should be kept out of consideration, and the public welfare alone should be consid ered. "The proposal of Mr. Ford is to acquire a title in fee simple to more than'$105,000,000 worth of property owned by the gov ernment of the United States, and acquired and developed by the taxpayers of the country. The purchase price proposed to be paid by Mr. Ford is $5,000,000. The property is to be taken over by a corporation and not by Mr. Ford, though he is to cause it to be organized. It may pass out of his hands and into the hands of manipulators speculators, exploiters, or profiteers even during his own lifetime, and no one knows, upon his death, into whose ownership the stock will flow. The water power is to be leased to the Ford corporation upon terms so favorable that they are simply astounding when properly understood. The two dams, where the hydro-electric is to be developed, will cost around $50)00,000. This money is to be put up by the Ameri can government, and upon this sum, the corporation pays a very low rate of interest and upon the $17,000,000 heretofore gone in partial construction of one of the dams, not one cent of in terest is to be paid, nor any of the principal. "The word has gone all over the land that this corporation will make abundant quantities of fertilizer to be sold to farmers at a much less sum than now obtains. This report and rumor is without foundation, and nothing in Mr. Ford's proposal justifies the statement, nor can inspire the thinnest hope. He proposes to make 110,000 tons of nitrate of ammonia, which Is equivalent to 40,000 tons of fixed nitrogen, suitable as a fertilizer. The annual consumption is about 227,000 tons of fixed ritrogen. I appreciate this quality of nitrogen would be a fine thing, but well might the farmers of the country use many times that amount, but this corporation does not obligate itself to make more than 40,000 tons for the whole period of the lease, namely 100 years. The corporation will devote but about one-fifth of the water power in the extraction from the air of the 40,000 tons of fixed nitrogen. The Remainder doubtlessly v. ill l- used for private commercial purposes. "If this-property is leased to any person, firm or c rpora tion, It should be done under the federal water power a. i, which surrounds the lessee with certain governmental restrictions and limits the lease period to 50 years. "In a brief letter, it is not possible for me to express my great disapproval of this corporation's proposal to acquire this price less property. I voted for government ownership and operation of this plant, so that the requirements of the farmer for fertil izer could be met and satisfied, and where no limitation in the creation of a fertilizer exists, but where the whole of the power might be devoted in time of peace for that purpose. "Just recently the congress appropriated $7,500,000 to be used for the completion of dam No. 2. Well may the govern ment go forward as it is and construct a complete and going tilant. To vote to turn over this great and valuable Dropertv to a corporation in fee for a trivial sum, and to lease the water powers to a corporation for a period of 100 years, would bring to me a Keen sense vi naving aone wrong, l cannot vote for the Ford offer. I feel confident that in a few years the American people will rebuke anyone in congress who, by his vote, ap proves this corporation's proposal.

The temporary deportation of a young .Belgian wile and her eight-year-old son for an unintentional vi olation of one of the new law's technical provisions is perhaps the most absurd of all the inconsistencies which have marked its operation. Married to a Belgian in Chicago who has declared his inten tion of becoming a citizen, the vounsr mother departed six months ago for Belgium to bring back their child. On seeking to return she is first delayed by the exhaustion of the Belgian qut ta for the fiscaj-year ending June 30. Sailing then to take advantage of the quota for the new fiscal year, because of an unusually quick crossing she arrives at New York some three hours ahead of the lawful moment for admission and is detained at Ellis Island. After several weeks' consideration of her case by local immigration inspectors and the board of review at Washington, it is finally suggested that she return to Europe on the ship on which she came, remain on it, return here and make another application for admission under the new quota. Can any fairy story of the obscurity of the law beat this? Who is to pay for Mrs. Carton's round trip to Europe to qualify for residence in this country, to which she had already been ad mitted, we do not know. But it will be a trip at the expense of the legislative intelligence responsible for an immigration law necessitating such an expedient. Is the law in fact of such asinire nature or is it made to appear 3b by asininity of interpre tation? New York World. TOW $TM8 A man who can't 'be shown any thing can be shown up.
