Evidence is aecumulating that the

Said Now to Invade Florida; To

Jacksonville, April 30.-Control of
the citrus and deciduous fruit indus

appears to be contemplated by the

big concern of most of the groves
producing this fruit. For some time
there have been rumors that the ba--
mana interests proposed to enter the,
citrus field and it is possible that
the California combination represents
activity on their part in this direction.
The Los Angeles dispatches state
that the American Fruit Growers,
Inc, has an authorized capital of one
hundred million dollars and expects
to merge big grapefruit and orange
groves, both in California and Florida
with important apple orchards in the
Pacific Northwest and in the Eastern
states. The promoters are reported
to claim that properties worth ten
million dollars already have joined in
the enterprise.
So far as can be gathered from the
details of the plan as they have been
wired from California and as the mer-
ger is explained IN press dispatches,
the movement will be competitive
alike with privately owned marketing
agencies and with cooperative asso-
Citations of growers such as the Flor
ida Citrus exchange. On the other
hand, there are indications in the per-
sonnet of the promoters and in some
feathers of their prospectus that
they expect to absorb certain factors
in citrus distribution commonly known
as speculative agencies.
The rapid increases during the past
year or two in the proportions of the
citrus crops of California and Florida
handled by the Fruit Growers ex-
change of the former state and the
Citrus exchange of this state probably
have FASTENED the decision of the spec
ulative interests to acquire large hold
ings of fruit producing properties.

HOW RHEIMS SUFFERED

Rheims, France, April 30-Rheims,
which had a population of 115,178 be-
fore the war, now has only S,452 in
habitants; 1887 men, 3,258 women
and 1918 children.
The martyr city" was shelled by
the Germans on. ,051 days, and over
1000 persons were killed, including
some 800 women and 100 children. The
cathedral was struck by 287 shells UP
to March 81, 1918. Afterthat date nc
record was kept.
April %, 1917, was the worst day
of the war for Rheims. The lombard
ment was so terrific that no records
could be made of the casualties and
damage on that day.

NEW PRICE LEVEL

After an extended study of prices, it
is the opinion of the division of pub
lie works and construction develop
ment that new price level has been
established by the economic conditions
attending the world war; and that eco
nomic forces appear to have already
acted to stabilize prices at a level be-
low which they are not likely to fall
by any appreciate amount in the near
future. 1t is believed that the grow
ing confidence in the future of bust
ness in this country, evidence Of which
is seen on all sides, is we'll justified by
the facts that have been learned
through the study of the price situa-
ton. Evidence of the stability of bus
mess today is the fact that during a
five months period of stagnation, the
number of business failures has been
unusually low.
At the present time there is less
concern over high prices than there is
with regard to the stability Of prices.
1t appears that the wisest business
men are those who decide now to go
ahead with the construction Of build
ings and the production of goods; the
need for both forms Of activity are
more imperative now than ever be
fore.
