Convenience Is Considered. In its conclusion the Bureau of Ef- ficiency says: “It the Farmers' Produce Market is to serve the people, it should be so placed as to be convenient to them. Four-fifths of the entire population of | the District of Columbia live north of | | Pennsylvania avenue. |""“If the farmers’ produce market is | a wholesale market only, as has been contended by certain interests, then the question arises as to whether there is any more justification for the tax payers of the District of Columbia to provide a wholesale market for farmers’ | products than there is that they should provide a wholesale market for meats, for dry goods, for drugs or for other commodities.” Fish Market Cited. To show that the location of the Parmers’ Market in the Southwest sec- ton would mean that it would be a wholesale market. which the consumers of Washington would not patronise the report says ‘When the Municipal Pish Market was established in 1915 the people of the District of Columbia were told that it would be a wholesale and a retail market and that it would be an excellent place for the housewives of the city to go for their sea food products. It was located on the water front in Southwest Washington. “As & result of this location. this market has developed into a wholesale market, being so far removed from the center of population and so incon- venient of Access that its retail trade failed to materialize. As a result of this location storerooms in this market rent for only $20 to $30 a month whereas had this market been located convenient to the paople these same storeroams wouid bring increased rent “Agam, to show that this market was wrongly located. it is ouly neces- sary to state that at least 80 per cent of all of the sea food products caming to the Washington market are brought 10 1t by rail or by tr The sea food products from the lower reaches of the Potomac River and from Chesapeake Bay caught on one tide are i the market betore the ebd and flow of the next tide, being brought thereto by trucks.” Twelve Reasons Listed.
