* FIFTH STREET SITE FOR MARKET LIKED Rhode Island Citizens’ Asso- ciation Calls Location Best for Whole City. The vicinity of Fifth and K streets] was favored as “an idl location®™ for a site for the new market to replace the present Center Market, in a reso- | Jutlon adopted by the Rhode Island Avenue Citizens” Association, at n meeting in the Sunday schéol hall of the Sherwood Presbyterian Church last night. Such a location de- red to be the most convenient to the majority of Washington citizens. The Mid-City Citizens' Association also has selected Fifth and K streets a5 the most suitable place for the new market site, and is carrying on a cam- paign to secure its erection there. After a lengthy discussion the as- soclation voted in favor of extending the school hours in the junior high schools from 3 to 3:4h o'clock as a means of doing away with a certain portion of home study. The resolution was adopted, following recommenda- £ r, chair- a vote was registered against extending the school periods in the senior high schools from 2:3 to 4 o'clock. Opposition school hours for a below junior high recorded. A resolution was adopted favoring the repeal of the existing law, recent ruled upon by the Controller General forbidding the purchase of land by the District for mo above the assessed value of the prop- erty. A resolution was adopted stating that it is the general sense of the assoclation that the mail facilities in the section covered by the association ire inadequate.
