I
IS GIVEN OUT
WASHINGTON, May 27. (By Asso
elated Press).' A proposal tor develop
ment of the government's nitrate and
power projects at Muscle Shoals, Ala.,
was finally agreed upon today by the
house military committee after more
than three months continuous investi
gation and study of the offers made by
Henry Ford, the Alabama Power com
pany, Frederick Engstrum and Charles
L. Parsons.
While the proposal was held in
strictest confidence by the committee
with regard to its various provisions
relating to development of the projects
It was learned that the Gorgaa. Ala
bama, steam plant was eliminated
from the property to be disposed of
with Muscle Shoals. The committee
plan ln other respects follows closely
the terms offered by Henry Ford.
The proposal was drafted by the
committee and committee members
said, represented a plan It would sub
mit to all persons and interests tor
acceptance regardless of whether they
slready had made an offer for the
Muscle Shoals properties.
A copy of the committee's draft was
given to W. B. Mayo, chief engineer
for Mr. Ford, who said he would leave
here today for Detroit The purpose
of his visit, it was explained, was to
confer with the Detroit manufacturer
and ascertain whetrer Mr. Ford was
willing to accept the terms laid down
by the committee. After the confer
ence, Mr. Mayo said he wovld return
here to give the committee M. Ford'
nnswer. It was understood thnt the
elimination of the Oorgas steam plant
from the properties at Muscle Shoals
which Mr. Ford included In his pro
posal would be the main obstruction In
the way ot acceptance by Mr. Ford of
the committee's plan. Mr. Mayo and
other witnesses who represented Mr.
rord before the committee during its
Investigation declared repeatedly that
Mr. Ford held the Gorgas plnnt to be
necessary to his scheme of developing
the shoals properties and also repeat
edly declared he would not ngree to its
elimlnntion from his offer.
