Senate committee presses Norris bill on Muscle Shoals Plant
The Senate agriculture committee urges government operation of the Muscle Shoals nitrate plants to supply cheap fertilizer, challenging private operators to show good faith by accepting leasing terms. The Norris bill would run the 150 million project on the Tennessee River unless a private lease is negotiated within a year. President Hoover vetoed the measure previously, yet the panel reports strong support without dissent.
