Show .J , 1 v. THE BINGHAM NEWS m$niN(xDW Would Lease Power of Muscle Shoals Despite the WASHINOTON. to pan for dis-posal of hyuro-eieetrl- c cur-rent generated at Muscle Shoals, plans have been made by the War de-partment for the leasing of thla power as fast as It Is developed. In a letter sent to the special Muscle Shoals committee appointed by Presi-dent Conlldge the War department outlined Its plans and asked for the views of the committee on the pro-posed policy. If tile department plain receive the approval of the committee, bids will be asked Immediately for the snle of the power. In this connection, It was pointed out that owing to a shortage of rains In the vicinity of Muscle Shoas there will be a big demand for power this full. No trouble Is expect-ed In disposing of whatever power Is developed at good price. In the letter two plana for the sale of the power were outlined. One would be to soil the current as fast as It Is developed by the Wur depart-ment to the highest bidders under con-tracts revocable at any time. The other would be for the snle of the power developed by the steara plant combined with the power devel-oped from the hydro-electri- c plants to one bidder with some sort of provision In the contract tor the availability of the power for the partial operation of nitrate plant No. 2. It Is the opinion of the department that It would be much better for all the power to be sold to a single con-cern, becnuxe of the Impossibility of estimating the amount of power that may be developed at any particular time. In this connection It Is pointed out that while one of the plants will be ready July 1 It will be several months before It will be operating efficiently. The four plants now being constructed at Wilson dam will ultimately develop 100,(KX) horse power. When the first one Is completed the government would theoretically have 25.000 horse power to sell. Hut because of the tests of the machinery and un-avoidable difllcultles, It Is not likely that that amount of power will be de-livered for at least six months. The other three units will be ready January 1 and within six months after tint! time It Is expected that the full 100.000 horse power of the develop-ment will be available. The Muscle Shoals commission, ot which Former Representative John C. McKenzle of Illinois Is chairman, was appointed by President Coolldge to study the question and report to hlta next fall. Too Many Kinds of Money; Not Too Much I a STUDY by treasury ofllcluls of the problem of the govern-- ment's paper-mone- y expense has led to the tentative con-clusion that the public Is being sup-plied with more denominations In the various kinds of such money than it needs. Assistant Secretary Dewey, under whose direction the study Is being made, believes It is time to correct this result of a topsy-turv- y develop-ment of the nation's currency over many years by eliminating some of the denominations. If the bureau of engraving and printing's present paper-mone- output of twenty carlouds annually could be concentrated on fewer denominations, It would mean a material saving through quantity pro-duction and less confusion to the public. "Without making It too difficult," the asslstunt secretary continued, "it may be explained that the treastiry Is now turning out five general kinds of paper money silver certificates, United States notes, gold certificates, national bank currency and federal reserve currency. "With the latter two we are not i , concerned In this study, but Just con-sider the denominations of the first three kinds. They are Issued at Ave, six and eight denominations, respec-tively, making a total of nineteen types of money Issued directly by the tressury." Mr. Dewey then pointed out that If some way were found to eliminate de-nominations of the silver certificates, for example, so as to leave only the one and bane of the superstitious the two-dolla- r bill, the necessity for making three types of bills would be eliminated and by the process he thought the average citizen might get a little better acquainted with the silver certificate. Some otticlals who have gone Into the subject favored reducing the United States notes to one denomina-tion the five which would eliminate five denominations of money. Then, the famed yellowback, from the prince of bills, the $10,000 note, down to the more or less familiar "ten spot," would be allowed to remain the same with its range, Including also the $20, $50, $100, $500, $1,000 and $5,000 note to care for all needs above the small denominations. Octagon House to Get Artistic Marker His ashes rest In the Congressional cemetery and his tombstone bears the chiseled motto, "Deo Spes Meo." The land on which the Octagon house stands was acquired by Col. John Tayloe, a wealthy land owner of Virginia, from Gustavus W. Scott for $1,000, and he arranged with Mr. Downing for the erection there of a winter home for his family. During Its construction, which began In 1799 HOUSE, nt the OOrAGON York, avenue and street, closely Identified with many Incidents In the early history of the national capital, Is to be more distinctively marked by the American Institute of Architects, which acquired the prop-erty several years ago and has used It as Its headquarters ever since. Leading artists have been Invited to Revise a suitable marker for the build-ing, the winning design to be selected at the national convention of archi-tects In New York city. The sturdy old building Is consid-ered one of the best surviving ex-amples of the Eighteenth-centur- y type of American Georgian or Adam period :yle of town house. It was designed ly William Thornton, one of the plo-le-architects of the United States, who also designed the main Capitol building, which formed the nucleus of Ihe present structure, and also the plan of the University of Virginia. He came to this city with his family from Philadelphia In 1703. He held the of-fice of commissioner of patents for several years, and died here In 1828. rind occupied three years' time. Gen-eral Washington, who was a personal friend of Colonel Tayloe, showed great Interest In the work, and Inspected It every time he visited the city. From the time of Its first occupancy until the death of Mrs. Tayloe, wife of I'.enjamin Ogle Tayloe, son of the origlmri owner, In 185o, Octagon house was celebrated on both sides of the Atlantic for the generous hospitality always to be found within Its walls and the many brilliant social assem-blages held there. Its most eventful experience, how-ever, was Its occupancy by President Madison and family for nearly a year after the burning of the White House by the British durlng the War of 1812, "Career Men" in Diplomatic Service B. KELLOGG, secretary FKANK Is the embodiment of Idea of diplomacy, and his direction of the foreign af-fairs of the nation Is significant of a new deal all around. Washington Is Just beginning today to realize that "dollar diplomacy" Is a thing of the past, and there is the suggestion that the United States, consciously or un-consciously, Is building up a diplomacy of the Old World. In other words, the United States rapidly Is falling into the custom of the old countries of creating and maintaining profes-sional diplomats. "Career men" they call them at the Department of Stnte men who have started at the foot of the diplomatic ladder and are climbing slowly but surely 'Into the front rank of the coun-try's representatives abroad. Such a career mun, Wurren Delnno Xtobblns ot New York, who bus been counselor of the embassy in Berlin, was gazetted recently as counselor of the embassy at Rome. Eventually Mr. Robblns Is to become a minister. May-be he will go nn to ambassadorial rank, although the career men have not yet attained that exalted positioa Secretary Kellojrg Is committed to the new Idea. He may be said to be an expression of the new Idea In his present station, for he has been pro moted from an ambassadorship to head of the State department. This Is In line with the policy of d diplomacy. The promotion of Mr. Kel-logg marked a new epoch In Amerl- - can history. Whether be will remain long at the department, or whether other I'residents will follow Mr. Cool-ldge and select ambassodors to head the cabinet, are questions which oulj history can unswer. It Is a fact, however, that for the first time within recollection there Is a man In the State department come freKh from diplomatic service and dip-lomatic associations in the Old World. Washington Is wondering what will be the eventual effect of the new American diplomncy the creatlou of ministers from counselors of embas-sies und.the promotion ot career men or professional diplomatic representa-tives all along the line. Heretofore ministers and ambassadors have been appointed for political, personal or commercial reasons. They have not had diplomatic training, but they have carried abroad a real, Americanism. Some observers have felt that these untrained Americans have been at a disadvantage In deal-ing with the professional diplomats of other countries, but there Is nothing of Importance In the historical record to bear out such contention. i Daddy's U$dlkiii Fairy Tale fyjV&f GRAHAM BONNER COLD TAG "Hello." said Carrie Cough, "left II Join In and dIsj a tae." "L fa." said Susy Sneeze. "Let's." said Clarence Sore Throat. "Let's," aald Harry Headache. "I'll be It." said Susy Sneeze. "Where will we play this time?" s s k e d Clarence Sure Throat. "Oh. let's play st Melly's. She is so proud, because she seldom baa a cold that we'll "You Can't Catch Punlsh, ncr for ner Ms," Said Car. P1- - rleCouQh. Now know. the members of the Cold family are very mean. They have no consideration of a person's feelings, none whatever. They don't care how they make a person feel. They have no sympathy and no kind-liness. In fact they are as hateful as hate-ful can be. Susy Sneeze bad a first cousin named Susy Sneeze, and also a twin sister by that name, and the cousin had a twin sister by the same name; which was curious, but a fact. There were many In the family, and they didn't bother to have a great many different names. They were too busy doing mean things to think np a variety of names. "Yes, let's play at Melly's," said Susy Sneeze. "All right," said Clarence Sore Throat. "All right," said Carrie Cough. "All right," said Harry Headache. "And you're It," said Carrie Cough to Susy Sneeze. "I'm It," she answered. They began to pluy so quickly that Melly was taken by surprise. At first she couldn't believe It was true. She couldn't think bow she could have caught cold. She hadn't had her feet wet lately, nor had she worn too few clothes, nor had she gone out when It had ruined without rubbers. She couldn't think at all how she had caught the cold. For she realized In no time at all that she was In for a regulur cold. Even though It had been hard to be-lieve at first It was certainly so. "You can't catch me. you can't catch me," snld Harry Headache. "Tag, you're It!" shouted Susy Sneeze. Now Melly had been sneezing nnd sneezing and sneezing and sneezing. It had seemed as though she couldn't stop sneezing. And how her head did ache. She had sneezed bo hard and the cold In her head was so bad tbat her head ached dreadfully. "You can't catch me, you can't catch me," cried Clarence Sore Throat to Harry Headache. "Tag! You're It!" shouted Harry Headache. , Oh, how sore Melly's throat did feel now. Never had she known a cold to dash along so rapidly as tills one. Usually it had not gone so fast. This was dreadful. Now her throat was so sore. She still sneezed some, her head still ached, but her throat was raw and sore and hurt to swallow. "You can't catch me, you can't catch me," said Carrie Cough to Clarence Sore Throat. "Tag! You're It!" shouted Clarence Sore Throat. Melly began to cough, And It hurt to cough, too. Her head still ached, she still sneezed some, her throat was very sore and she coughed. Not one of them would give np play-ing. Sometimes her throat seemed worse than her head, sometimes It was the other way ,around. But never had she had a cold gallop through her as this one had. Nor did any part of the cold completely leave her. It all remained with her. It was ull be-cause they were playing the game of Cold Tag "at Melly's" as they said. Tou know how you will piny tag a very nice, Jolly game. But they were playing Cold Tag which is far from being a nice game. Instead of playing It out In the open Hef Head sti they choose a per-- Ached, son's throat and head In which to play It and that Is not kind. Nor is It showing the least bit of consideration. It Is, you see, all because every member of the Cold family Is entirely lacking In sympathy. That Is the whole trouble.
