The reputed views of the farmers themselves with respect to relocating | the Farmers' Market ate voiced by | L. J. Harrison, who owns and oper- | ates one of the largest and best | farms in nearby Maryland, after personal conferences with more than 300 of the 500 farmers who now dis- pose of their produce at the Farmers Market. Mr. Harrison has also been | in conference with a special committeg of tha Chamber of Com- merce, with members of the co- ordinating_committee on the market site, with District officials and repre- gentatives of the Department of Agriculture and with Maryland rep- resentatives in Congress. “The farmers are 100 per cent to stay where they are, rather than be; shifted to a temporary location, and at least 90 per cent wish to be re- located adjacent to the Convention Hall market, if they must leave the | present location,” he said. i “Should the farmers be shifted to | some out-of-the-way place, as is, now proposed at the water front. there are many like myself who will en- deavor to grow something other than vegetables. ‘At the Chamber of Com- merce hearing most of the time was taken up by the South Washington proponents, who used the words ‘farmers’ -market’ to advance their business interests.
