The consideration in the House of the various offers for the development of Muscle Shoals resulted In the acceptance by a relatively small majority of the Ford offer. This. however. was locked in the Senate and an agreement made to consider the matter during the next session. The immigration bill passed both Houses by large majorities and was signed by the President. It is generally considered to be the most carefully thought out and effective piece of legislation on this subject ever enacted by Congress. Two bills passed by the House and which subsequently became laws of great benefit and importance to disabled veterans of the World War were. first. a law to increase their hospital facilities. and the other a bill so liberalizing the provisions of the existing law as to greatly simplify and facilitate their obtaining proper compensation.
