pursuance OF their declared intention to inspect the
public markets Of the city, and were greeted heartily
In botn places by the assembled dealers. Clinton
Market, In Canal street, near the North River, was
nrst gone through and found In an unclean condl-
lion and Inadequate for market purposes Assem-
DYman David =. Paige accompanied the Comptrol-
lers party through the market, and explained Its
various wants and defects. The building Is q
low, snuat franc one, erected IN 1929. and Is
surrounded by sheds which prevent proper passage
along the sidewalks IL Is suggested TO have all
such encumbrances removed and arrange the side
walks conveniently. Tho roof OF tho market Is In
need OF repair and the pasterlng OF the ceiling has
fallen down IN several places Indeed, the present
larger and more convenient. On West street tho
market can hardly be approached, owing TO the
depth OF mud which has never known the coming
OF the carts OF The stree {. cleaning contractor.
On entering Jefferson Market Comptroller Green
and party were met by Mr. George Starr, who spoke
a lew words OF welcome lie SAID that no class OF
business men had been go 0urageously plundered
as the butchers. Market officials nad been, almost
without exception, the agents OF corruption and
plumber.
Comptroller Green replied at length, thanking his
listeners for the KIND reception they had accorded
to MIN, referring 10 various needs CT tho public
markets and promising active interest and COOP
Grafton In any feasible scheme that might be devised
