Washington. I). C.. Nov. 30.— There
■ re strong indications that President
Coolidge will shortly make a bid for
the voting power of the agricultural
Sections that have shown sentiment
favorable to the candidacy of Henry
Ford.
Analyzing the strength of Mr. Ford
as reflected in letters received by the i
g ministration the main pillar seems |
be the demand of the farmer for |
eaper fertilizer to cut down his costs
production and a belief that Henry
r ord’s plan to operate Muscle Shoals
» will accomplish that object.

sum ami makes quite an item in the
farmer’s budget. With the low price
of whent. the farmer’s costs nre con-
cerning him vitally and if he could se-
cure a cut in fertilizer it would in-
crease its marghi of profit especially
if a foreign maikct for grain were
some day to be established.
I . S. Can Risk It.
It Mr. Coolidge has let it be known
that he believes fertilizer to'be of
I such paramount importance to the
welfare of the country that he would
consider the federal governinAnt justi-
fied in operating Muscle siials even
at a loss. This would checkmate the
Ford plan of private operation.
It would mean a loss of anywhere of
about fifty million dollars a year ac-
cording to some estimates as the while
thing is very much of an experiment
but if Mr. Ford could risk it so could
the federal government. That’s the
view which many members of Congress
have been taking of the subject and
matters have reached the point where
a bill passed by both houses would
receive the approval of the President.
Mr. Coolidge has been told that in
denying Mr. Ford the opportunity to
develop Muscle Shoals the government
must provide some alternative that
will satisfy the same sentiment that is
back of Mr. Ford's vamnaign. It
<eems almost certain that the-alterna-
tive will be government operation of
Muscle Shoals. To this there may be
the objection which has been made to
government ownership of other things
such as shipping or railroads but
here. too. the program would provide
them initiative taken aud the capital
furnished would be a governmental
character only in the years of experi-
mentation.
Could Pay Money Back.
When once the plant were able to
turn out cheap fertilizer it could be
leased to private concerns on terms
' favorable to the government in the
ultimate return of the capital invest-
I <sl and guaranteed to give the farmer
his fertilizer at agreed unon rates.
During the war the federal govern-
ment bought the fertilizer product of
Chile in a bulk-and disposed of it to
the American farmers so there is jirev-
edent for government handling of this
probkem in an emergency.
Unquestionably there will bo re-
newed operation of the Muscle Shoals
controversy at the coming session of
Congress but the administration is

' the science of aviation was the theme
| of Major Mayo who wns in charge
of the designs department of. the air
ministry during the World War in
addressing the royal aeronautical si-

The major said the latest British

ed to war it was a plain fact they
would never get into 11 fight al al).
Charging the government with neg-

Many people like these male quartets in “dose-harmonied”
Southern style. Both sung with beautiful smoothness and
harmonic sense to the full orchestra.

Albert Campbell-Henry Burri 19180 .75

If you have a liking for sentimental music in fox trot time
with two tenors with a big orchestra and heavy piano-work
this duet will captivate you. "Alabamy Blacksheep” adds two
more singers and does it again.
