RPN o » i [67H ST. SITE URGED Location of Commerc2 Build- ing on Avenue From 14th to Treasury Approved. Location of the new Department of Commierce Building in area already owned' by the Government between Fourteenth and Fifteenth streets, Pennsylvania avenue and B street, will be recommended to the Public Ruildings Commission by the Commis- sion of Fine Arts, as a result of its deliberations last night. The Fine Arts body favored that lo- cation for the Commerce Building in preference to the two other sites that had been under discussion, namely In the Mall, on the south side of B street between Twelfth and Four- teenth streets, or on the land now oc- cupled by the market between Seventh und Tenth, Pennsylvania avenue and B street. There is still some uncertainty as to how far the Public Buildings Com- mission will go in bringing scattered branches of the Comimerce Depart ment under the roof of the new build ing. Officials of the Fine Arts body pxplained today that if it is decided to go the limit in putting all of the De- partment of Commerce except the Bureau of Standards in the proposed structure the site favored at yester- day’s meeting would be ample in size. On the other hand, if it is decided to Jeave the Patent Office where it is, well_as certain other sclentific bu- reaus, the theory of the Fine Arts Commission is that there would then be room enough on the proposed site for a Department of Labor building, also. Reasons for Decision. In deciding to favor the area be tween Fourteenth and fteenth, Pennsylvania avenue and B street for the Commerce Building, the Fine Arts Commission, it was explained to- 4ay, had a number of reasons in mind, emong _which were the folléwing: A befief that it was the original in- tent of Congress to place the Com- merce Building in that area; a feeling that there was the proper place to begin a clean-up of the south side of Pennsylvania avenue and the triangle Detween the Avenue and the Mall. It was further explained by a member of the commission that the site pro- posed forms a part of the frame sur rounding the Treasury and White House, and that it was thought desir- wuble to have a pretentious structure there. The Fine Arts Commission already had made up its mind that the P: ent Office shovld remain in its sepa- rate bullding between Seventh and Ninth, F and G streets. Approve Bathing Pools. 1he commission also gave its ap- roval vesterday to the locations for he first groups of bathing pools in various parts of the city, as recom- mended the National Park and Planning Commission. The first pool for white bathers will be in the grounds of the new McKinley High School, near.Second and T streets northeast, and the first pool for the colored population will adjoin the school being erccted at Twenty-fourth and N streets. Plans for the new fourteenth police station, in Tenleytown, by Municipal Architect A. were approved by the commis Much of the day was devoted to a study of designs for memorial chapels to be erected in American cemeteries in France, Belgium and England.

He believes that { the wholesale and commission men are not .he ones to say where the farmers' market should go, because the furmers’ market is a balance wheel agatist high prices by commis sion dealers. Neither should the re- tail or corner grocers be allowed to sprak for the farmers, since their in- | terests are to keep the farmers and |the housewives separated. Speaks for Farmers. Secretary Jardine proposes to represent the farmers in this matter jand see that they are properly lo- cated and their interests safeguarded in the propusad relocation of the i market. In this connection he believes that the farmers' market cannot be relocated with the expectation that | the wholesalers will cluster about it, nor would it be advisable to locate it where 1t would be inconvenient for the public, or consumers, For these | reasons he feels that the entire ket system——retail, wholesale and farmers’ lines"—should be moved at once and properly co-ordinated in a new location. For these three reasons, Secretary Jardine today authorized the ment that he, as administrator of the Center Market, would gladly yield that commanding site. In taking this attitude, Secretary Jardine supports the position of Presi- dent Coolidge, who in an interview with a rep entative of The Star at the President's Summer camp, de- clared his views regarding the loca- tion of the Commerce follows ther than encroach upon uties of the Mall, those who are make the selection first he are attracted by the urea between the Avenue and the Mall and Seventh and Tenth sireets, they should not permit themselves to become confused or hampered by the question of a new site for the market buildin The latter question could be settied in a leisurely and satisfactory —manner later or after it has heen definitel; settled that the market buildings must give way for the Commerce Building. Would Be Important Step. To appropriate the present market site for the erection of . Government building would be the most important step that could be taken at this time to clean up the condition south of the Avenue, which is offensive to the senses, would create an appropriate frontage for the National Museum and projected Art Museum Buildings on the Mall and would promptly lead to the erection of excellent buildings by private capital on the north side of the Avenue. Discussion of plans to place the Commerce Building on the present market site naturally drew Secretary Jardine into careful consideration ot the market relocation problem, partic- ularly since the City Planning Com. mission has ruled that the farme market and the wholesale market sec- ¥ions must vacate at the same time, that the Center Market must go with- in a very few years anyway and the ion of the District Commission- to surrender at once half of the now occupied by the farmers’ market. All of this, Secretary Jar- dine says, makes it imperative that the entire market problem should be most_carefully considered now and a decision made with consideration not only of present-day needs and ex- igencies nnd the interests of the mar- ket people, but which will adequately rovide for the handling of food prod- ts for the rapidly growing Capital many years to come. Backs Fine Arts Plan. This is a_problem which deeply con- cerns the Department of Agriculture because, Dr. Jardine points out, Wash- ington should have a marketf group which will carry out the economies in marketing which experts in the de- partment have worked out to facilitate the distribution of food supplies from the growers and point of origin to the consumers, which will be a model to be studied and copied by cities all over the country, and which will give the more than half million residents of the National Capital City a thoroughly modern, sanitary plant. Ie agrees heartily with the Fine Arte Commission that this model plant should be architecturally attractive, with all build harmonious in de. sign, and that this will inestimably improve a section in the very geo- graphical and population center cf the city. Secretary Jardine states as a funda mental proposition that the Center Market must be j sible to the very ¢ —to the many th of population inds of women ket daily to huy food for their families and who spent more than $10.000,000 over the counters in Center M vear. Therefors, after cavefully considering the sevaral other now market centers proposel Secretary Jardine is persuaded that the new Center (or retail) Marict must be in the vicinity of the exisrinz Ccnvertion Hall Market at K and Fifth streets. He believes that the three units of the market system—retail, whole- sale and farmers—should be kept close together for reasons of business economy and to :swute the best serv ice at fair cost to the public. Cites Rail Facilities, Considering the questions of cos- venience to rail facilities for the wholesalers who buy in carload lots, Secretary Jardine has been shown that practically every large busine house in Washington doing a general delivery business within the last five vears have built their warehouses along the Baltimore and Ohio tracks from I street to Riode Island avenue, through the Eckington district. The ecretary feels that this is the best sible testimony from more than of the most successful business men studving their own interests from a purely practical business standpoint in favor of the Eckington section for track-side warehouses for food supplies. With the New York avenue freight vards already able to handle about 550 freight cars, from which food supplies could be trucked, without warehouse facilities, directly to commission men who deal in less than carload lots, and nly a short and direct haul along New York avenue for a distance of only about a half mile, a row of at- ctively designed stores for whole- salers and commission men should be erccted along New Jersey avenue be- tween New York avenue and Massa- 50 | side should be used for the delivery state- | Building as | the | should | choose some other place, and, if they | with ‘market baskets who go to mar- | THE EVENING STAR, WASHING 'JARDINE APPROVES MARKET BY FINE ARTS BODY chusetts avenue and along New York avenue from New Jersey avenue to Fourth street. This would establish a new wholesale market section adja- cent to tne new retatl market section. Proposes Market Layout. The Secretary believes that the two large squares north and south of K street between Fourth and Fifth streets should be used for two retail market buildings. On one of these the present Convention Hall Market is situated. The I and L street fronts should be kept like the front entrances of department stores, exelusively for the patrons, whice the broad K street of food supplies. but under the strict- st supervision which would guaran- tee a clean and wholesome condition, not at all offensive to sight gr smell. Lying between this proposed whole- sale area and the proposed retail area are three squares, bounded by I and L, Third and Fourth streets, which would give the Farmers' Market an ideal location, acgording to Secretary Jardine's views. lere he would have attractive rhelters erected, which, with the Center Market buildings on cne sid2 and the wholesale stores on the other side, would virtually inclose the Ifarmers’ Market with a pleasing architectural frame. Differing very materially from some of those who have been arguin; rarding the interests of the far the proposed new market center, Secretary Jardine feels that the farm- ers have at jeast an equal interest in the retail market as they have in the wholesale market. This opinion, he points out, is confirmed by the action of the farmers and trucker: who now have stands in the Farmers’ Market, more than 400 of whom have signed petitions to the city planning board asking that fvhen they are moved to a new site that it he adja- cent to the Convention Ilall Market, where they will be convenient to the people from all over the District. Proposes Parking Area. The Secretary says that he is con- vinced that the farmers (and it is the farmers he is especially anxious to serve) should be placed between the retail market and the wholesale mar- ket as a sound economic proposition. There they can do business on the one side with the wholesale houses, and the corner grocers who patronize the wholesalers, or with the retailers in the retail market or directly with the woman with the basket who comes to_market. He emphasizes that the real func- tion of the Farmers' Market is two. fold—to give the farmers a chance to sell their produce and to give the cit- zen consumers a chance to buy near- by-grown fruits and vegetables at the cheapest price. He fecls very sure the mideity plant as thus outlined | would be the best possible solution for farmers and for the people of wshington gencrally—and it was for them that the market was established in the first place, and it is for them that the new modal market plant will be_established. It is important, the Secretary e: plained, that with a large retail mar- ket, and with the broad avenues of approach along New York, New Jersey and Massachusetts avenues already occupied by street railway and bus lines, adequate parking space must be provided for the housewives who will come in increasing numbers to the big central market. He suggests that the two squares between Fifth and Sixth streets, New York and Massa- chusetts avenues, be used exclusively for the parking of passengér automo- Dbiles, under market management, which will keep these areas clean and well policed. Inder this plan_ the old school site at Sixth street and New York avenue, the triangle between L street and New York avenue at Fifth street and the triangle between 1 street and New York avenue at Fifth street would all become park areas, which would en- hance the attractiveness of this new market center.

By the Associated Press. | BERLIN, September 17.—The re suls of the League of Nations council | election are largely interpreted by the Berlin press teday as a conspicuous victory for French politics, the papers | of the Left pointing out that the in-| ternatlonal popularity of France is a factor to be reckoned with. Tt is regrettable that such news should be disseminated by Germany on the day after her entry into the League of Nations,” M. Painleve said. The report was telegraphed to the Berlin newspaper Gazette der Volke by its Paris correspondent, who said he had learned from well-informed circles that France had concentrated in recent days no less than six divi- sions of troops in the region of the French Alps and had correspondingiy strengthened the frontier fortresses. Outwardly, he added, France was observing the correct reserved atti- tude in the face of most bitter at- tacks from the Italian pre ing from the attempt on Mu: life by an Italian exile who had i in_France. S papers, however, advise t Germany follow the example of England and not be jealous of France’s success. The Socialist Vorwaerts considers the vote giving Poland eligiblity for re-election the only disagreeable feature, but admits that German; vital interests ave not_thereby affected.

As a_result of the conferences he has had, the President has obtained information on which his next mes- sage to Conzress will be based. He has been enabled to map out his for- eign policy. He has decided matters of momentous political interest. Fur- thermore, the data now at hand will be useful in many ways in the future. Program for Legislation.

The official view is that it is a great thing for world peace that Germany has been admitted to the League of Nations and that the Locarno pacts are to go into cffect. It is the hope that other localized agreements some- what of the same order may be en- tered into for preservation of the peace:of the universe, Prosperity Made Tssue. The President definitely has estab- ished prosperity as the outstanding ssue of the 1926 campaign. He has indicated through the medium of his callers that, while the farmers ma: not be as prosperous as they would like to be, conditions are shifting so that they ean share more in the good imes which other lines have been ex He has no intention of approving any radical farm bill, and {the present outlook is that there will te no more farm legislation at the mext session than at the last. Mr. Coolidge, accepting the leader- ship of his party, with his peculiar abflity to state an issue with clarity and conciseness, has indicated that the state of the Treasury is such that there can't be another tax cut next Winter, as the Democrats now purpose. He also has shown the “in- consistencies” of the Democrats, one wing of which pleads for debt can- cellation and the other calling for still lower taxes, two assertedly irrec- onciliable points of view, unless it is intended thmt this shall be done at the expense of the sinking fund for outstandins_obligagions. Mr. Coolidge has given his approval to the first air routes mapped out by the Bureau of Civil Aeronautics of the Commerce Department. He has indorsed, in principle, the plan of Prof. Ripley to give security holders greater protection by publishing more financial data of the companies in which they are interested, though holding that this is a matter for State rather than Federal action. The President has indicated that he | has no sympathy with the plan, which could not be carried out under ex- isting law, to sell American tonnage to prospective purchasers irrespectiv af nationality. Economy Still Watchword. Hr. Coolidge has made clear that, aside from all other consideration, econsmy is to continue as the watch: word of the present administration. He alieady 000,000 1rom the estir ment heads for the fi mencing Wuly 1, 1927, and directed that the budget to be submitted to Congress siwll be under $3.270,000,000.
