nr. ri-nriP H. Priddy. former Brooklyn clergyman, and confessed murderer of his wife and two sons. Each was made without his knowledge, and against wishes he has frequently expressed.

The first was the retention as coun sel of Dana Wallace, former Dis trict Attorney of Queens, who was associated in the defense of Ruth Brown Snyder. Wallace was retained by friends of Priddy. All along Priddy has been insisting that he doss not want a lawyer. "Some lawyer probably will come along and try to prove me insane." prison attaches have quoted him. "I don't want anything like that." Appoints Lunacy Commission.

The second move was in accordance with this expectation. County Judge George H. Furman appointed a lunacy commission to inquire Into Priddy mental condition. The commission Is composed of Dr. Horatio Gibson and Dr.

Charles L. Vaux ol the start of the Central Islip State Hospital. They are expected to examine Priddy on Monday. Priddy slept soundly last night but appeared nervous this morning. He arose in anticipation of attending the funeral of his victims and had expressed the fear that he might be mobbed by his former Farmingdale neighbors.

GeaWPeese FUNERAL DIRECTOR MKT (AMD AVL HANCOCK DECATUR "5700 I in i Production. Eagle Baifij. 901 Colorado BaUJaig Wmfh.ng'.on. Teb 4 Ti.e same lories til Senile that this meek approxed th continued Ooveninient ownership and opeiatuin of the Amriiran mrr-1 marine are eNpected to give leg- sanction to I he proposal that the Government con.uiue the perma- i nent operation of tin? Muscle power plant in Alabama.

Delay in dealing with these war problems has. after 10 yearn, created a surprising sentiment in Congress lor the Government to hold on to properties and run them in competition with private business. ost S13j.D10.Ottt. The Shoais plant, built at a co-: of $135,000,000 during and jusi af.er the war to produce power and "el" lumuiua be one of the major problems un jolved in the last decade. Two administrations have sought vainly to dispose of it to private companies, but Congress could not be brought to the point of agreeing- upon the terms of lease or sale.

A stubborn little group of Pregressives. centering about Senator Norris of Nebraska, has been suc cessful in blocking all such private- operation plans, while holding out for Government ownership and operation of this plant. But not until this session has there been any possibility of carrying out the designs of the Progressives. Sudden Shift in Sentiment. A mysterious shift of Senatorial sentiment in the direction of Government ownership and operation has occurred, which materially brightens the prospect of legislation to keep Muscle Shoals permanently in the hands of the Government.

Much the same state of mind which brought about the adoption of the Jones bill, providing for the enlargement of the Government-owned merchant fleet, by the Senate is likely to produce favorable action on a resolution by Senator Norris providing for the Government to produce power and fertilizer tor general sale at Muscle Shoals. The onlv private bid remaining un der consideration for this property is that of the American Cyanimid Com pany, but recent conferences have in dicated that there is scant chance of inducing Congress to accept it. Many See No Other Solution, The Senate Agriculture Committee has just given a favorable report to the Norris resolution. Under its terms the Government would operate the great plants at Wilson Dam, selling the power to all comers. The plant also would be run for the manufacture of fertilizer.

Many Senators and Congressmen heretofore strongly opposed to Government operation of the Muscle Shoals plant, are now turning to this policy because they profess to see no other way out. The chief difficulty with the American Cyanimid bid is the disagreement over the recapture clause. The House Military Affairs Committee is insisting that the contract shall guar antee to the Government both the right to reclaim the property at the end of a fixed period and to take it back at any time the private concern tails to produce a specified amount of fertilizer. The company, so lar has refused to consent to this plan. Objections to Private Bid.

Another objection to the Cyani- mid's bid is that it proposes to lease not only the dams at Muscle Shoals, but also four very valuable power sites on the upper Tennessee River, a proposal bitterly opposed by local Congressmen. The Norris resolu tion deals exclusively with Muscle Shoals. Many Senators are predicting pri vately the passage of the Norris res'j lution as the best solution to this vexing and prolonged problem. There is little objection, they say, to the Government formally continuing to do what it is now doing informally that is, reducing power for sale at Muscle Shoals. The chiet issue in the Norris resolution is whether the Government, having produced the power, should go into the distribut me held, as the Nebraska senator desires; or whether it should simply sell, the to all applicants who IN MELMORIAM BLANCHARD In loving memory of my dear mother, SERAPHINE BLANCHARD, who died Feb.

4 (Pi A threat to attach the shipping bill passed this week by the Senate to the tax reduction measure as a "rider" unless the1 House takes it up meanwhile was made today by Senator Jones. Republican, of Washington, author of the shipping legislation. Declaring he had heard rumors that his bill was to be "stifled in com mittee" in the House, Senator Jones said the shipping proposal would be In order as an amendment to the tax bill, which is still to be taken up by the Senate. If approved as a rider it would force House consideration. Jones offered hope for a compromise with Administration leaders in the House, who oppose his bill for providing Government ownership of the Merchant Marine fleet, in contradiction to the policy of President Cool-idge for its early transfer to private hands.

"If our bill comes back with an adequate ocean mail pay provision, with the loan provisions of the act of 1920 reasonably modified and with certain provisions now pending," Jones said, "such amendments will have most sympathetic consideration." Jones said "No Senator had the hardihood to offer an amendment or a substitute to aid private parties to build and operate ships," replying to attacks on tne clause providing lor unanimous consent of the Shipping Board for the sale of a vessel.
