Oorens I'lant and Fertilizer Production Two Points at Issue. Washington, April 30.-An impasse fais been reached by the house com uaittee on military aaffirs and the lo -cat representative of Henry Ford re specting the disposition of Muscle IShoals. The committee insists that 'Ute Gor vgas steam plant, on which the Alabama iaower comlany, has the option, be eliminated from the list of properties Ford ,would acquire for $5,000,000. Te committee insists that Ford guar untee to produce a finished fertilizer during the 100 year life of the p'o posed lease. Ford continues to demand Gorgas and his only concession Is to the ef feet that he will defend its surrender in the courts in the event of litiga tion. Respecting fertiliz.r production he continues to be obscure. le guar entees to produce a commercial ar tile "at a profit not. exceeding S per cent of the fair, actual, annual cost." lfe refuses to bind himself to con tinue the production for any number of years, and is understood to be of the opinion that the government should stot insist on his continuing to iu'o duce if it should develop that produac tion is at a loss. The attitude of the committee r'e ispecting Gorgas is that the govern :ment Is in honor bound1( to give the Alalrbama 'Power company an 0oppor1 qunity to acquire it from the govern.. "gnent direct and that as it is not es Isential to the opetation of tit rate :plants 90 mIles away, it Is consi~rtett with sound business pr'incilIes that 'It be pet'mittedl to niserve where it Is grieat-ly needed.
