Atlantic City's possibilities as rem
devious for seagoing yachts of the
larger type are limitless now that we
are assured OF twenty foot channel"
said Commodore Allen B. Endicott of
the Atlantic City Yacht Club in COM
menting on the decision of the Federal
Government to increase the depth OF
Absecon Channel from IL to 20 feet,
dr. Endicott, like his father, the late
Judge Allen Il. Endicott, has been an
enthusiastic yachtsman for many years.
Last summer which was his first as
commodore Of the Atlantic City Yacht
Club. he made special efforts to give
this resort more prominence as yacht
ing center He was making arrange
ments for a race between this city and
New York when he was distressed to
find that the bar here had an unfavor-
able reputation. Many yachtsmen
feared to bring their vessels into this
harbor through a twelve foot channel.
Yachtsmen in other places, he discov-
cred, were OF like mind.

neers of this district, announced to the
