Putts jr., Superintendent of City Markets, who has given considerable study to this matter. MARKETS DESIGNED TO SAVE BY CUTTING OUT MIDDLEMEN, “Unless markets are munici- pally controlled and operated only from the viewpoint of selling to the consumers at the lowest pos sible price, the cost of foods bound to be high,” said Mr. Putt “We feel that our market sys- tem here has developed the quick- it way of getting food from the producer to the consumer. Also that we have reduced the cost*of handling to a minimum, But we are working on ways and means to improve our system, to make it more sanitary, to eliminate waste and encourage nearby farmers to come to town and dispose of their wares directly to the consumer. Hor a long time we have had to withstand the opposition of store- keepers, but the city authorities have maintained the position that the wel- tare of the people 1s of paramount im- portance and that nmunicipally con. trolled and owned open markets is the big way of reducing the price of living by thus cutting out the middle- man, The storekcepers have gradua- ally adjusted themselves to the needs of the public.
