Government May
Ultimately Buy
Park Field Site

The United States government will
ultimately purchase Park field. the
aviation camp at Millington, in the
opinion of Herbert. Gannaway,. attor-
ney representing the law committee OF
the Chamber Of Commerce. Mr., Can
naway returned from Washington
Thursday afternoon, where he went to
close the deal with Secretary Of War
Baker for the purchase of the field.
In the last minute of the negotiations
Secretary Baker decided not to pur-
chase the field because he thought 1t
would not be ethical In view of the
army appropriation bill awaiting the
presidents signature in which congress
forbids the expenditure Of additional
money by the war department IN the
purchase of real estate. Secretary
Baker held that while the bill had not
actually become a law, the will Of con-
gress was recorded in it and 1t would
not be right for him to avail himself OF
a chance to circumvent 1t,
Park field was not the only field on
| which purchase was held up because Of
Secretary Bakers scruples, Mr.. Can
naway said. 1t was only one Of many.
1t Is Secretary Bakers intention to
| arrange for the Introduction Of a special
bill as soon as congress a gotten
through the rush of business incident to
the presidents return, in which special
| appropriations for the purchase Of Park
field and other aviation fields will be
asked.
"Mr. Baker" said Mr.. Gannaway,
Says the fields must be acquired II the
army is to maintain its aviation ser
vice, Their purchase cannot be per
manently abandoned unless the govern
ment intends to drop the development
Of military aviation"
The delay is not expected to interfere
with the purchase of the land from this
end, as the options held by the Cham
Der of Commerce are for an indefinite
period and can be exercised within any
reasonable length of time.

FURTHER LITIGATION
SEEN IN PHONE CASE

Whether or not the present contract
between the city Of Memphis and the
Cumberland Telephone and Telegraph
company, fixing the rates to be charged
in Memphis is now void due to the fact
that the company now has more than
10000 phones, is a matter that may
bring further litigation as 500 as the
telephone properties are returned to the
owners by the federal government.
Attorneys for the telephone company
claim that more than 0 1000 stations are
now installed, but the city attorney dif-
fers. He declares that the company Is
counting extensions when only direct
lines should be enumerated.
However, 1t is not believed any agree
ment will he made between the city and
telephone company as to rates when the
government turns back the properties.
The city will contend that the phone
company go back to the old contract
and the old rate and the company will
contend that the old contract is dead
on account of the fact that 10000
stations are now installed.
The company also will say that the
rate-making from now on shall be fixed
by the state utilities commission and
that body alone can make the rates.

Would Retain
COL. A. FROST
Department Urged to Rescind
Action in Retiring
~Commandant,

Strong pressure is being brought to
bear on officials Of the war department
in an effort to retain Lieut., Col. A. S,
Frost, professor Of military science and
tactics at the Central high school and
commandant of the local unit, Reserve
Officers Training corps, junior divis-
ion.
Acting both on his W initiative and
responding to the requests OF friends
of the popular officer, Prof. Wharton
S. Jones, superintendent of city schools,
has telegraphed Senator K. D. Mcclellan
to use the strongest arguments he can
to have the war department resctnd the
order retiring Col. Frost. The only
obstacle in the way, II is believed, Will
be the probable position Of the war
department in acting on the
that the order placing the officer on
the retired list was a general n ana
to rescind it may be taken by the de-
partment to set a precedent and cause
every one affected by the order to en-
ter a similar request.
Senator Mcclellan. however, in a tele-
gram to Prof. Jones Friday, stated that
he would do all in his power to have
Col. Frost placed again on the active
list.
Col. Frost has greatly ingratiated
himself In the hearts of Memphians dur
| ing his comparatively brief assignment
to the local post he occupies. He Of
| fered himself for active duty overseas
during the world war but his wish was
not granted on account Of age. Col
Frost is in perfect health except 9
slight affection OF the heart which
physicians said at the time the office
sought service, might increase, shoulc
he be placed under conditions where
he would likely to be subjected to in
tense excitement,
In the effort to have Col Frost re
instated attention of the war depart
ment is called to the fact that the con
ditions under which he has been work.
ing would not be such as to create any
cause of danger to the efficiency of TIL
services rendered, .
In the event that the order stands
retiring Col. Frost, Prof. Jones will in
sist that a West Point man be ap
pointed to occupy the position.

Bonus for Wheat Excludes Imports.

President Wilson's proclamation fixing the
price of wheat at $3.50 per bushel at New Or
leans and Galveston also may put a quietus on
a hope for cheaper bread. The order specifically
provides that no wheat or wheat products may
be imported, except in accordance with limita
tons laid down by Director Barnes of the
wheat administration. Primarily this is ex-
pected to prevent any sale of Canadian wheat
on this side at the bonus price. 1t presents
another possibility, though, and one that de-
serves close attention. Under the application
of the rule the American consumer may be re-
quired to pay such price for his flour as will
save the government whole on whatever OF
the wheat crop is consumed at home. Thus,
so far as the cost of food is concerned, Ameri
cans would derive no benefit whatever from
the bumper crop, because of prices being held
up to the government figure. In Europe, espe-
cially in Great Britain, relief in the form OF
lower cost of bread is expected with the COM
ing to market of the current years crop. The
United States will have for export more wheat
than ever, almost the total prewar requirement
of the food-importng countries OF Europe.
Normally this great surplus would give some
advantage to home users, but unless the ad
ministrator has thought for the eaters rather
than for the obligation of the government to
the raisers we may be compelled to continue
paying war prices for bread as result of the
order just promulgated
