HENRY FORD HAS
. GIGANTIC PLANS
HE SEEKS NO PROFITS FOR
HIMSELF
Would Build an Enterprise at
Muscle Shoals of Untold Use-
fulness to People of U. S.
FIRST NATIONAL BANK
BUYS SHELBY BONDS
Detroit, Jan J6. The Muscle
Shoals plan of Henry Ford contem
plates one of the greatest undertak
ings in the history of industrial
America, and if the Detroit manufac
turer obtains possession of the pro
ject in Alabama, he will take immedi
ate steps to make that part of the
South on of the industrial centers
of the country, the Associated Press
learned today. His plan, it became
known, includes development of the
property as a model to be extended
eventually to many other parts of the
country.
T. Build a String of Cities.
Mr. Ford's proposal includes the
building of a city 75 miles long in the
Muscle Shoals region. It would be
mads up of a number of large towns
or small cities. This is in line with
the manufacturer's view that men and
their families should live in small
communities where benefits of rural
or near rural, life would not be entire
ly lost. .
No Personal Profit.
His proposal to the government in
cludes leasing of the property for one
hundred years. But before the expir
ation of half that time he proposes
to turn the completed project over to
th people of the district or to the gov
ernment in such a way, that no one in
fjhe future will be able to make a per
sonal profit from the undertaking. He
will arrange that neither he nor any
f his heirs may realize any monetary
benefit from the Muscle Shoals plants
r the power developed, it became
known. Mr. Ford proposes to make
the project, if the government gives
its consent, the outstanding achieve
ment of his career.
Starts Great Program.
The Muscle Shoals project is, how
ever, only ths start of a greater pro
gram, it became known. This includes
the development of water power fa
cilities in many ports of th. country
j which pontons in those commas!
tits would derive power to run tnann
factoring plants, light thoir homos
and ran machinery oa tho farm. Ono
' detail of tho plan is tho harneesing
ly farmers of every creek and brook
that rosses his property.
Start Work at Once.
II tho government accepts Mr,
Ford's bid, work at Muscle Shoals
win bo started at once. The nitrate
and other plants would be run by
steam power, pending the time the
great dam, that will require about
two years to build, has harnessed the
water at this point Then would fol
low development, In the opinio of Mr.
Ford, nnt3 Within a eomparatively
few years an industrial center great
er than Detroit would have been built
p. -- - - - - V
Mr. Ford believes the Muscle
Shoals plan, if consummated, will be
the start toward development of the
Mississippi river valley. The manu
factum believes this valley "could
run, the United States" if the water
now going to waste could be utilized
Would Run Government
Eventually, in Mr. Ford's opinion.
the government could derive enough
revenue from. these power projects
to support itself, thereby relovution
izing the financial system of the
country.
Mr. Ford has bent the greater part
of his energies during the last few
weeks to whipping into shape his plan
to develop the Alabama district m tho
event he obtains the leasing from the
government He has held a large num
ber of conferences on this matter and
his program is known to be ready.
This program includes definite steps
toward development of water power
in every part of the country. The
manufacturer does not believe it prac
ticable to carry power for long dis
tances and therefore has evolved a
plan to provide eaeh district with its
ewn project
Pays Par for $300,000 Worth of
Street Improvement Bonds
Was Highest Bid. V
The First National Bank of Shelby
last week purchased the $300,000
worth of street improvement bonds,
paying par for the same. Bids were
opened the day before and five or six
bids were submitted by outside bond
buyers, most of them wanting to buy
the bonds at a discount of $15,000 to
$23,500. The mayor and board of al
dermen quickly declined these offers,
making the statement that the bonds
should bring par before they would
issue them. Mr. C. C. Blanton on the
following day offered par and the of
fer was accepted. It is a distinction
for Shelby to have a banking house
strong enough to purchase its bonds
and pay par therefor when outside
bidders want them at a discount of
seven per cent. The First National
has total resources of nearly three
million dollars and is considered one
of the strongest banks in the South in
town the size of Shelby. The bonds
will bear interest from February
when they will be issued. '
Mayor Gardner stated yesterday
that the administration is now look
ing for prospective bidders on the
work of laying eight or ten miles of
hard streets in Shelby, the work to
begin March 1st.
