Gifford, president of the American Telephone Ac Telegraph Co., told stockholders at their annual meeting today that the number of telephones In use was showing a slow but con tinuous growth and the business out look was encouraging. More than 300 stockholders attended the meeting and one of the first ques tions asked Gifford was the amount of his salary. He replied that his annual compensation was $206,250 and that no bonuses were paid. Questioned by another stockholder regarding the agitation for lower rates, he said in his 31 years in the tele phone business he could not recall a time when lower rates were not being agitated. "There is nothing particularly ab normal about the telephone rate situ ation today," he said. “The company would like to make lower rates, and when ways and means can be devised they will be put into effect.” He disclosed In response to further questioning that A. T. Ac T. was giving serious consideration to the question of refunding Its bonds, and that "something may be done.” If all Is sues were placed on a 314 per cent basis, however, he said, It would save only 15 to 20 cents a share on the outstanding stock, an amount Insuffi cient fundamentally to affect dividend policies. Regarding the business outlook, he added, “The Bell system Is now gain ing stations in practically all sections of the country. In the first two weeks of April there was a net gain of 22,500 stations.” Chicago Grain. By the Associated Pres*. CHICAGO. April 17—Unexpected strength developed in com late to day, and prices climbed to a new high record aince January, but abrupt ly reacted owing to wheat weakness. May delivery of corn took the star role as a result of focusing of trade attention on unusual scantiness of Chicago stocks of corn needed for settlement of May contracts. Spread ing operations in wheat between here and Kansas City accounted largely for wheat weakness. WHEAT— Onen. High. Low Close.

WEBSTER’S DICTIONARY DEFINES IT and its taste tells you why BUDWEISER must be famous indeed to be chosen from all American beers for mention in Webster’s New Inter national Dictionary, just published. You’ll find it on Page 349. Here is just another distinction for the fine beer that has won medal after medal at world’s fairs for more than half a century. Bohemia, in 1903, officially adjudged BUDWEISER the finest bottled beer on Earth, better even than native brews. France, as early as 1882, conceded BUDWEISER’s superiority. The following is from the Paris Gazette:— “ The most surprising triumph for an American product at the Paris Exhibition was the success of the Anheuser-Busch Brewing Asso ciation, of St. Louis, which eclipsed world-renowned English brewers, as well as hundreds of rivals from Austria and Bavaria. It is not surprising that a great sensation was produced when it was understood that the experts reluctantly pronounced the St. Louis beer *superior to any malt liquor ever drunk upon the con tinent,* and that all Paris is now seeking to quaff the American nectar.** ANHEUSER-BUSCH • ST.
