118 * BOOSTS MARKET = ONWATER FRONT Chalrman of Southwest Com- mittee Advances Arguments for Proposed Site. Trging the establishment of a wholesale terminal for dealers in perishable food products near the mu- nicipal fish wharf on the river front and outlining how such a terminal should be laid out, Salvatore Scalco, chalrman of the Southwest Boosters Committee, today submitted a letter | to the National Capital Park and Pianning Commission in support of the proposal. “If the planning commissioners would commend to the District committee a wholesale terminal for all merchants s, poultry ven packers and grocers, and were to locate Dlant in the neighborhood of the icipal Fish Market, where two up- date cold storage plants are located and to which point five railroads bring freight, it would add greatly io the appearance of that section. If the farmers’ market were to he placed in the mid-city section, it would spoil the plans to make Washington the most beautiful city in the world. already planned by the Fine Arts Commission. “I'he following is an outline of how 1 think this wholesale terminal mar- ket could be built: It should have long | Matforms, with each space numbered | off and rented to whatever concern de- xired to locate there, and have sub cellars for dry storagé for products such ms apples, onlons, potatoes bananas, ete. The floors above could be used for the coid storage of meats and other vegetables.

By the Associated Press CHICAGO, September 21.—The ad vent of a new era in ga er warfare was marked today in ¢ where broadside of rapid fire from a caval cade of eight motor cars outroared the suburb’s previous volleys from pistols and a lone machine gun. * At least two persons were wounded by the fusillade, which raked the An- ton Hotel and the Hawthorne Inn, a short distance from where Assistant States Attorney MeSwiggin and two companions we ain- in April by machine gun fire. lice sought two other sualties” in an effort e motive of the hold instantly cleared the str reported to det ortie, shoy lin the Hawthorne Inn, { world channels, THE EVENING STAR, bodies ‘of two persons were dragged into one of the automobiles while a machine gunner knelt on the side- iwalk and spread a covering fan of bullets.

He was dining his reputed headquarters, and found hasty exit through a rear door.

Capone was seated in plain view of the street. The known victims of the gunfire were Mrs. E. C. Freeman of May, La., and Louis Burke. Mrs. Freeman was wounded in the left arm when shots swept the automobile in which she sat with her small son and husband, a horse owner interested fn racing at the nearby Hawthorne plant. Burke, a hotel guest and follower of the races, was hit in the shoulder as the hotel and shops in the building were spray- ed with bullets from the slowly mov- ing cars.
