the certificate of Incorporation, Is "the
carrying and transacting of a strictly
wholesale business. confined to the buy
ing, selling ard dealing In groceries, pro-
duce and general merchandise connected
with the grocery business
The old association was mutual or
ganization engaged in the purchase and
distribution of goods to those pecuniarily
interested at cost, adding certain amount
for expenses. This arrangement met with
much opposition from wholesalers here and
elsewhere, whose principal contention was
that it enabled retailers to purchase goods
at manufacturers prices. and that If per-
sisted in the arrangement might result In
the undoing Of the wholesale business.
They also objected to the distributors OF
goods receiving them direct as they claimed
was the case with the members of the
Washington Retail Grocsrs' Association.
This opposition of the wholesale dealers
caused the association to meet with such
difficulty in procuring goods from the
manufacturer that 1t was decided to make
a change in the conduct of the concern and
establish a general jobbiHg business with a
capital stock in shares ID be sold to retail
grocers. The two principal objects in view
were: First, of selling TO the retailers gro

was to give a patron Indulgence, IL he de-
sired 1t, to the amount of his stock.
In the reorganization of the corporation
in 1899 its promoters contemplated those
ideas. They therefore Incorporated under
the District laws and placed the capital
stock at $4,000. This was done for the
purpose of establishing wholesale grocery
house for the sale Of groceries to those
regularly engaged in the retail grocery
trade.
The capital stock was divided into 1900
shares at S. each, which shares were sold
to grocerymen and others. The business
was then established and operations began
at the store and warehouse 1909 B street
northwest. This business has been most
successfully carried under the direction
of the officers and directors of the corpor
