next week Players from the Metro
politan and other districts will tee off
Thursday morning for the first round
CT the annual spring tournament of the
Atlantic City Country Club at North
field, and for the three final days of
the week one of the largest playing
fields in shore golf history will contest
for the trophies and honors of the
place and season. Out of courtesy to
their seashore golfng brethren, mem
bers of the Garden City club consented
to postpone the dates for their tourna-
ment from next week until May 20, and
as a result New York golfers will be
able to enlist in the Atlantic City con-
test. The first day will be given over
to medal play at thirty-six holes for
qualification in the various flights, and
Friday and Saturday will be devoted to
match play for settlement of the coast
championship. Five fine new holes have
been added to the Mortified course
since last season and will be used to
prevent congestion during the qualifi-
cation anad first match rounds, when
the field is at its maximum.
Preparations are being made for the
summer fishing, which is expected to
be the best in years. Two years ago
hotel men and sportsmen combined to
build an artificial fishing banks several
miles off the coast, and thousands of
tons of stone were dumped on a shoal
to to, act as collection agency for fish food.
This year results have been obtained,
and the first Of the fishermen to go out
to the banks have brought back great
catches. Regular trips will be made to
the fishing grounds during the summer
by the professional shippers of the
inlet fleet, who also have buoyed the
fishing spot for the direction of anna
teur navigators.
Boardwalk and beach assumed a
summer aspect this week with arrival
of~really warm weather. Straw hats
and f1annels bloomed forth as wearing
apparel for the promenaders on the
boardwalk, and both rolling chairs and
beach chairs were occupied during
most of the sunny hours. Bathing
started in earnest, and although the
ocean will not be officially "unlocked'
until Memorial Day officials are con-
sidering the appointment of the first
squad of life guards to look after the
constantly growing number of surf
devotees who insist on daily dips.
Both the Atlantic City and Chelsea
Yachts clubs have opened their houses
for the season and inaugurated dance
and other social functions ahead of the
regular cruising and racing season.
The Schlitz Hotel restaurant on the
Boardwalk, Berger & Fish, proprie-

FARMERS RESENT
SLUMP IN PRICES

Wheat futures" have sunk well
below the 50 level; this means that
wheat buyers are offering less than
So bushel for wheat to be deliver
ed in December. Corn on a similar
basis is commanding only IS cents or
so, while oats and other cereals have
dropped correspondingly Big breaks
in flour and feed prices have result
ed, though it will take some time be-
fore the full effects of the reductions
are felt in the retail market.
The wheat farmers are up in arms
at the situation. They have expected
to sell their wheat for SO bushel or
so, and they figure that this will only
just about allow them to get out ev-
en-. The farmers associations are
urging that wheat be held until the
SO price is forthcoming. But there
is such large visible supply of wheat
that this plan is not likely to work.
The Western farmers complain that
it is the wheat gamblers who are de-
pressing the price of wheat. These
gamblers they say, never really buy
a bushel of wheat but only speculate
in it for future delivery when ev-
eryone knows that no delivery is to
be made. Demands are made that
congress shall put stop to such
gambling in grain. Meantime many
of the farmers are storing their grain
in every available place, even filing
their parlors with it, in the hope that
prices will improve.
Practically every other farm pro-
duct is in the same boat with wheat.
The stock raisers are desperate; they
declare that their business is going
to be ruinel and they are appealing
to Washington for relief. Potatoes
are bringing such small prices that II
is not worth while to market them.
The various cooperative agencies
which have been organized for the
purpose of securing higher prices for
the producers are forced to admit that
they are unable to find market.
They are making lame excuses to the
farmers aud telling them that they
must expect to take the rain with
the sunshine"
The dairy industry is in a state Of
collapse. Not only are milk prices
falling below the profit point but
the public are refusing to buy milk
and milk products at any price; they

The Administration at Washingtol

The administration at Washington
is hostile to any such plan as this
and 1t gvies a warning that money
cannot be advanced to allow anyone
to hold products for war prices. The
farmers of the South are holding
meetings and denouncing the govern
ment authorities. They declare that
the federal reserve system has been
used to allow favored interests to
speculate and profiteer, so that there
is no money left to finance legiti-
mate business.
Senator Smith, of ~ c., Dem, de-
clared: II don't believe the law gives
any official the right to say what
kind of business shall have credit
and what shall not" He added that
If the present situation is allowed to
continue the farmers will all unite in
a general strike and will say to the
public: Here is our price. We de-
mand our rights and we will not
loosen up one pound of meat, wheat
or cotton till we get them" DR.. w.
j. Spillman, former head of the farm
market bureau of the agricultural
department, charged that Secretary
of the Treasury Houston and the
federal reserve board are conspiring
to force the price of wheat down.
In all the cotton states the might

with the object of keeping cotton off
the market in order to force the price
up Warnings are posted telling the
planters not to pick their cotton or
they will be dealt with severely Gins
are warned not to accept any cotton.
and stores not to do any business un,
til cotton goes back to 40 cents.
Many gins and stores have been
burned and millions of dollars worth
of cotton destroyed. In some cases
men who have been guarding proper

ers. Governors OF several states have
issued statements denouncing the out

must stop. Rewards are being offer
ed for the arrest of offenders.

Sugar is still on the toboggan slide
The wholesale price at this writing is
IL cents, and still lower prices are
predicted. Here too the buying pub
lie have baked; they found they had
been tricked by the sugar people and
the government into paying outra-
geOus prices and now they are using
only q fraction of the sugar they
would normally use. 1t is estimated
that the last sugar crop yielded Cuba
alone a net profit of billion and a
third dollars; but now the Cuban
planters face disaster as the new crop
will have to be dumped at less than
half what the last one brought them.
Stocks of sugar in this country are
enormous and the holders are being
forced to throw them on the market,
as they can't secure the money to car
ry them longer. The drop in sugar
prices so far has caused a shrink
age of third of billian dollars. The
people who are being hurt are crying
out for ''relief.
Many of the middlemen have made
contracts for large amounts of SUI
gar at wholesale prices up to 22 cents
pound. The refiners are now in
sisting that the buyers shah take
this sugar and pay the prices they
agreed to pay. Some Of the sugar
banks in Cuba and this country are
on the point of failure.
This whole question as to contracts
and future prices is arousing earnest
discussion. Many big concerns, such
as the auto companies for instance,
make a practice of guaranteeing that
their prices will not be reduced with
in, say, six months. The effect of
such guarantees Of course is to keep
prices artificially inflated.
The Western farmers, 1t is claimed,
have lost two billion dollars by the
recent price reductions, and the
Southern planters say they have lost
a billion on cotton alone, to say moth
ing of peanuts and other crops Cot
ton seed and peanuts are bringing
such low prices that the planters are
being urged to use them for fertilizer
and feed rather than try to sell them,
The latest government estimate
puts the cotton crop at 1923, 900
bales, or nearly million bales more
than last year. Cotton is now bring
ing less than 25 cents, against 40
cents short time ago. The plant
ers are striking for 40 cents and are
calling on the federal reserve banks
to supply them with the capital neces-
sary to finance the crop at that price.

NEWSPAPER MERGERS.

in the journalistic world than were

but now he has separated the two
and will issue the Herald as a morn

has just bought up the Philadelphia
Press and has merged II into the
lublic Ledger. The Press was es-
tablished 60 years ago and IL had an
honored place in American journal

scene. Many other papers are being
merged over the country In some
cases papers that have long been enc
