i TALKS ON NARKET [Tells Kalorama Citizens D. C. Will Be Without Site for Several Months. Dr. Luther H. Reichelderfer, president of the Board of District Commissioners, said before a eitizens' association last | might that he thought Washington | ‘would be without a market for several after the present Center Market is demolished. As @ guest of the Kalorama Citizens Association, he commented on a resolu- tion, subsequently adopted, proposing that a letter be sent to Senator Smoot, chairman of the committee on public bulldings and grounds, asking that dem- | g olition of Center Market be postponed 88 long past July 1 as would not mnter- fere with the Government building pro- m. n;)r. Reichelderfer said he thought the ment would not need the site of Center Market as early as July 1, “The market situation is extremely up in the afr,” he said. “There is considerable dif- ference of opinion as to where the new market should be located and you can make ul! your mind that you won't have one inside of a year.” Ask Market Be Undisturbed. The resolution asking that Center Market be left undisturbed for several months was introduced by Mrs. Harve: ‘Wiley. She said delay would give time for public sentiment to crystallize in favor of establishing a market in the southwest section and at the same time would preclude the possibility of retail merchants being thrown out of the mar- ket with no place to go. “Unemployment conditions are bad here as elsewhere,” Mrs. Wiley said, “and a8 the Department of Justice will not need the site by July 1 I do not under- stand why the market must be demol- fshed then.” Dr. Reichelderfer said later he understood there was & bill in Con- gress that would prolong the life of the market beyond July 1, the date set ear- Her for its demolition. Urging the establishment of a mar- ket in the southwest on the ground that such a location would be nearer freight and could be had at less cost than any other section of the city, Mrs. ‘Wiley described as “very unlikely of en. setment” the Capper bill, which pro- s an appropriation of $1,300,000 for estal ent of a market in the northeast section. Doubts Vete by Congress. “I do not believe Congress will vote to appropriate that much of the tax- money for & market, where real must cost more than it would in Southwest, where the n wol nearer transportation facilities,” she ‘The association held its final meeting of the season in the John Quincy Adams School, Nineteenth _and _California streets.
