Leaders Say No Decision On Muscle Shoals Project
Washington June 2 Congress will not reach a decision on disposal of the government Muscle Shoals nitrate project in the present session, according to congressional leaders.

The Senate waits the army appropriation bill to vote 7.2 million dollars for resumption of work by government engineers, blocking any decision on Ford’s offer until next year.
