WILL SEEK FINAL ACTION ON SHOALS Snell Confers With President on Plan to Remove Issue From Politics. 13 J. RUSSELL YOUNG. Representative Snell of New York, &hatrman of the House rules commit- fee, and one of the Republican lead- ers in that body, following a confer- ce with President Coolidge at the hite House today, voiced a determi- nhatlon to have Congress at this ses- delay further tfking definite action, and if he can get the Democratic leadership in the iouse to agree he has a plan which he feels convinced will serve as the solution. This plan, as he explained it to President Coolidge today, calls for & non-partisan and determined mov ment on the part of the House leader- ship in the Muscle Shoals matter, such as was effected by the two party leaders in relation to the tax reduc- tion bill. Mr. Snell stated that he wouid first have all other bills and resolutions relating to the disposition of Muscle Shoals which have been in- troduced during this session thrown into the discard and & new bill drawn up to embody the main features of the administration’s desires regarding the disposal of this project and at the same time be worded 80 as to suit the Democratic leadership and all other opposition. Need of Agreement. There must be an agreement of this kind on the part of the Republicans and Democrats, Mr. Snell contends, if THE EVENING discussed his plan with any great num. ber of Democrats in the House, Mr. Snell stated at the White House that he is inclined to think that they will agree to his proposition. In his opin- fon it means far more to the South than other sections to have this ques- tion settled. Mr. Snell intimated that if the mi- nortity will agree to the creation of a commission delegated with tull au. thority to dispose of the Muscle Shoals project without further congressional action, he personally will be willing to put anything else in the bill the Democrats want. Action Now Required. *“This m: r has been hanging fire far too long,” Mr. Snell said, as he was leaving the White House. “I am of the same opinion as the President, that the Muscle Shoals problem seers to have assumed a place all out of proportion with its real importance. We have done enough talking about what should be done, and how it should be done. We have done enough inyestigating and studying. Now we BTAR, WASHINGTON, ences and to join hands on a non- political measure. We want nitrate and not talk. There & no use creat- ing another commission to do more studying of the question unless that commission is given authority to act. It should be authorized to lease the properties to the best advantage and should need only the approval of the President of the United States. “If I am not successful in carrying out my plan,” Mr. Snell continued, *) D. U, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1925. am inclined now to advocate Govern- ment operation, although I personally am opposed to the Government going into this business.” Favored by President. Mr. Snell gave the impression that President Coolidge looked with favor upon his plan for non-political action on this legislation. According to Mr. Snell, the President is ready to agree to most anything within reason and practicable to get this matter out of the way. There was no comment forthcoming at the White House today upon the finding of the general court-martial in the case of Col. William Mitchell and the sentence imposed upon this air officer. It was explained that inas- much as the President must finally pass upon the verdict and the sen- tence, it would not be proper for him to express his opinions at this time. CHARGES PACT BREACH.
