one Of the items in the retrenchment
measures. Borough President Marks
was told he would ultimately get the
money, but that he'd "have to wait
for it,"
Borough President Marks is not of
the waiting kind. He bethought him
self Of the many open spaces in his
borough which we're lying idle. He
thought they would be the very places
for the temporary city markets he had
in mind He believed that the grow
ers Of foodstuffs and the buyers could
get along pretty well at these places
even If they were not improved He
therefore threw them open as markets.
The points now open as city mar
kets are beneath the Manhattan and
Greensboro bridges, at Third avenue
and East One Hundr' end Twenty
ninth street, where i..e people have
long wanted such a center, and at the
Fort Lee Ferry. The farmers, from
the opening day. have fallen in with
the idea in enthusiastic fashion. The
people, too, have shown their approval
By tlocking in hundreds and thousands
