TUESDAY, MARCH 8, 1931 Hoover Opposed to i Principle Carried \ In Norris Measure } i i (Continued from page 1) |river wita the government in field. the ge Text Given President Hoover's message to con- igress vetoing the Muscle Shoals bill (said: “To the senate: “I return herewith, without my ap- proval, senate joint resolution 49, ‘to |provide for the national defense by ithe creation of-a corporation for the ‘operation of the government proper- ties at aud near Muscle Shoals in the {state of Alabama; to authorize the {letting of the Muscle Shoals proper- {ties under certain conditions; and for jother purposes.’ “This bill proposed the transforma- tion of the war plant at Muscle hoals, together witn important cx- 'panstons, into a permanently op2 {government institution for the pro- duction and distribution of power and the manufacture of fertilizers. “Disregarding for the moment the {question of whether the federal gov- jernment should or can manage 4 power and fertiliser manutacturing ; business, we should examine this pro- |posal from the point of of the probabilities of success as a business, feven efficiently managed. Such an janalysis involves a consideration of jthe capital invested, the available ;jcommercial power, the operating {eosts, the revenue to b2 expected, anc |the nzofit and loss involved from this et-up. The figures and estimates en herein are furnished by the r cepartment upon the authority jof the chief of engineer: Prapestls Are Listed | The following properties and pro- {posed extensions are embraced in the jProncsed project: i A) Wilson dam and its hydro- lelestric equipment valued at $37,000 - {000 being the original cost of $47.000,- 000 less $10,000,000 applicable te navi- } gation, “(B) The steam’ por :Muscle Sheals valued at $5,000. ing a reduction for depreci plant a: 000 be- ion of $7,000,000 from the original of ' $12,000,000. | “(C) Proposed further additions to the electrical plant at Muscle |Snoals costing $9,000,000. “(D) Proposed construction of Cove Creek dem with hydroelectri> plant with transmission line t> Wil- son dam $41,000,009 of which $5,000,- -}000 may ke cttributed to flood con- jtrol and improvement of navigation lor, say, $37,000,000. | “(B) Propesed corstruction _ ot jtransmission lines for wholesale dis- jtribution of power within the trans- mission aren—$40,000,000. “(F) Nitrate plants, quarries, etc. ‘at Muscle Shoais which originally | ‘cost $68,555,000 but upon which no ivaluation is placed at present. ! “The total vaiuation of the property t> be taken over for cld the fore $42,000,009 after the a duciions from original cosé. expenditures fi the tri leable to the power business ari ;maied at $20,000,000, Icss $5,000,600 which might be attributable to flood ; ‘control, or a total of $127,000.000 of capitel in tl a ject.

The total requirement of |of remote bureaucracy imposed upon new money from the federal treasury | the people of that valley without voice for the preject is probably $100,000,- 000 even if no further extensions were undertaken. . . . “The purpose of the bill is to pro- vide production and wholesale dis- by them in their own resources, the overriding of state and local govern- ment, the undermining of state and local responsibility. .. . “This bill distinctly proposes to en- tribution of surplus power and to! ter the field of polls reserved to| &! preference to states, municipal- | the states. It would deprive the ad- ities, and cooperative organizations. | jacent states of the right to control It further provides that the policy of trates for this power and would de- the government must be to distribute | prive them of taxes on property with- ‘Th: the surplus power equitably amongst | states, counties, and municipalities | within transmission _ distance ». of | Muscle Shoals and provides for the |~ construction of transmission lines to! effect this purpose. Such a trans- | mission system for wholesale purposes | if it is proposed to sell power at re- tail to householders, then there would need be a great increase in the esti- mates of capital outlay and operation costs for such distribution. “. , , the plants at Muscle Shoals were originally built for a production of nitrates for use in war explosives. I am advised by the war department | that the very large development in | the United “States by private enter- | ¢,, prise in the manufacture of synthe- | tic nitrogen now affords an ample | supply covering any possible require- | ments of war. It is therefore unne- | cessary to maintain this plant for any | such purposes. | Provision Not Important | “This bill provides that the presi- | dent for a period of 12 months may } negotiate a lease of the nitrate plants | for fertilizer manufacture under de- | tailed limitations, but in failure to make such a lease the bill makes it mandatory upon the government to manufacture nitrogen fertilizers at Muscle Shoals by the employment of | existing facilities or by modernizing | cxisting plants or by any other pro- | cess. I may state at once that the! limitations put upon lessees in the | bill are such that this provision is of | no genuine importance. Inquires have been ‘made of the most respon- | sible and experienced concerns that | might possibly undertake such lease and they have replied that under the cenditions set out in the bill it is en- tirely impractical for them to make any bid. “The department of agriculture re-| poris that these plants are now mor or less obsolete and that with power at even 2 mills per kilowatt-hour,| with proper charges inciuded, could not produce the products for which they are constructed as cheaply as; these products are now being sold in the wholesale mai ‘s. Therefore, it would be necessary to modernize the equipment at an unknown cost in millions. . . . *! i “I am firmly opposed to the gov-| ernment entering into any business the major purpos2 of which competi- tion with our citizens... . “I hesitate to contemplate the fu- ture of our institutions, of our gov- ernment, and of our country if tho preoccupation of its officials is to be no longer the promotion of jusiice v.and cqual opportunity but is to be devcted to barter in the markets. is not liberalism, it is degen- eration. Are Other Arguments “This provosal can be effectively) ‘pon other and perhaps nar- uunds. ‘The establishment of al-operated power business ing their borders and would invade and weaken the authority of local nment.... mpathize greatly with the peo- a- ple of ‘Tennessee and Alabama to see this great asset turned to practical use. It can be so turned and to their only is estimated to cost $40,000,000. | henefit. I am loath to leave a sub-! ject of this character without a sug- gestion for solution. ... “I would therefore suggest that the states of Alabama and Tennessee who are the ones primarily concerned, should set up a commission of their own representatives together with a representative from the national farm ions and the corps of army plants at Muscle Shoals in the inter- est of the local community and agri- culture generally. . . . | Meetings of Clubs ‘ !

J. Kamplin, state commander of the American Legion, who spoke to the members of the Ki- wanis club Tuesday noon, the strength of the American Legion lies not in the city but in the smaller towns where 70 to 90 per cent of the membership is composed of farmers. He cited figures to show that a large percentage of the 7,800 legion- naires in the state are engaged in farming. The fundamental purpose of the American Legion, Kamplin said, was to be of service to the community and it was organized with that ideal in mind. He further stated that the or- ganization was nonmilitary, nonpo- litic, nonpacific and nonsectarian. The first concern of the legion, Kamplin said, was the care of the disabled and all legislation in their behalf has been sponsored by the, le- gion. While not a military organization in any sense of the word, the legion believes that the best means of pre- serving peace is by maintaining ade- quate means of defense, according to Kamplin, and the organization favors universal conscription in time of war which provides not only for the draft- ing of manpower but of capitol, labor, and industry as well. He commented on the enthusiasm with which the boys of the state were responding to the baseball movement which has been sponsored by the le- gion and which attracted 1,500 boys to join teams last year. From present indications, Kamplin said, twice that number will participate next sum- mer.
