GAMP GRANT SLATED FOR AUCTION BLOCK; ONGE ACTIVE CENTER

. (Bt Associated Press) ' ROCKFORD, I1L, Dec. . 15. Camp tlrant, another of the wartime "scenes tt bustling military activity, soon i3 to - go ; upon the . auction black one of " the final steps in its . ultimate -wracking as a cantonment.

Between . 1.2 00 and 1.4 0O buildings and utilities are to be cold, part of a ' camp that at the height of its opera- : tions covered 5,656 acres of land and : housed approximately 60,000 men.

: Three army officers now are making a survey of the salvage value, of the ; buildings, all located in the area of the

old base hospital site.

Buildings in the areas turned over to ; the national guard of Illinois and the portion reserved for the proposed re-

' formatory for first term federal of-

; fenders, are not included in the sur

' 'vey. The Baldwin, Samuelson and ' 'Johnson farms are to be returned to their owners. Other properties were

i 'bought by the government and con-

i -demnation proceedings were neces ! ' saxy in some cases. ' Proposed Cantonment

; , It was on May 12, 1917, that the war

department submitted to the Rockrord

; 'Chamber of Commerce the require- , intents for a military camp in north- ; ern Illinois. The site was inspected ;by five army officers, May 30, and on June 12 the lands were definitely se- " fleeted. Leases were obtained on 3,301 Nacres.: This later was reduced to 2,249

I acres, k when .property: intended for . a ! i range was found 1 unsuitable. ' Bubsefquently a new rifle range and safety zone were selected and the total area

' ultimately used was 5,656 acres.

; ' The Eighty-sixth division was train

ed at Camp Grant. Several thousand

negro soldiers also were trained here.

(Hundreds of thousands of soldiers : I were discharged at the camp after the

rwar. Several public auctions in the

Hast year disposed of thousands of dol liars worth of camp property.

'i The federal reformatory project" is (meeting opposition here. Rockford jsent a representative to Washington

I to appear before the House Judiciary .Icommittee to. protest against a favor-

lable report on the bill, locating the

; I prison at Camp Grant.

IWorll Wheat Situation

Slightly Favors Producer i " (By Associated Press) 3 WASHINGTON, Dec 18-The world ;Wheat situation would indicate a con-

t dition elightly favoring the producer,

: according to department of commerce

; officials -who base their observations on reports from all parts of the globe.

The "world balance sheet," on wheat stocks does n6t bear out-the belief, it

was said that there would be a larger

arry-over of stocks of wheat next July than there was in July of "this year, while improving . conditions abroad would seem to mean that purchases of

wheat would increase.

In the open sea, it is said the

height of a wave measured in feet, is equal to onehalf the velocity of the

wind, measured in miles an hour.
