New Selling Plan
Is Urged for Grocers

A new plan for the selling Of grocer
les at retail was suggested yesterday
al luncheon Of the American Special
~ Manufacturing Association. The
idea. as explained by its originator. ).
W. Roth, Of Chicago, encourages cash
business. II also cuts down overhead
expenses By making a fixed charge for
all deliveries.
Mr. Roth said that the plan had been
submitted to Mr. Hoover and met with
his approval. II is in direct accord,
Mr. Roth said, with Mr.. Hooyer's con
servation Of food, time, money and ef-
fort.
The idea is 70 charge | per cent on
all charge accounts, and 20 add I'VE
cents for each delivery, no matter what
the size Of the order or the distance
it is TO be delivered.
Mr. Roth cited several instances
where the plan had been put into OPP
Grafton. One groceryman, under the
old system of selling and delivering,
had been forced to keep four horses
and .hree drivers. Under the new
system one horse and wagon with its
driver was sufficient.
Under the old system, Mr.. Roth said,
statistics gathered all over the coun-
try showed that rs per cent Of the
grocery business was conducted on a
credit basis. Under the new, the fig-
ures were exactly reversed. The re-
suits were 70 materially cut down all
expenses OF the business and az the
same time give the groeeryman much
larger amount Of money with which 10
do business

DR.. Moskowitz Made
New City Food Head
Civil Service Commissioner Re-
signs to Accept MitchePs
Offer

Or. Henry Moskowitz yesterday re-
signed as presiden. OF me Municipal
Civil Service Commission and was ap-
pointed by Mayor Mitchell as Commits
sioner Of the new city Department OF
Foods and Markets. The Mayors first
choice for the position was George W.
Perkins, but Mr. Perkins holds the POSI-
ton Of president of the Palisades PARK
Commission, and the law provides that
a man may not hold safe and city
position at the same time.
No salary has been fixed for the new
position, but the Board Of Estimate
probably will make it $500 The new
commissioner has the appointment OF
one deputy commissioner and a per-
sonal Office staH. in announcing the ap-
pointment the Mayor said:
The high cost of living is the most
pressing burden which the people OF
New York are bearing. They are cry
ing for immediate action. The delay
caused by three years Of selfish oppo-
sition to the passage of law enabling
the city administration 10 act has been,
and Is, great handicap. The delayed
passage Of the act will prevent us
from obtaining at this late date the
benefits that earlier preparations
could have obtained from this falls
harvest We must cut the red tape
and get down at once to the begin
ming Of a programme OF action. This
will certainly be my first endesvor."
The Mayor pointed out that Com
missioner Moskowitz was peculiarly
fitted for the position, because he had
spent his life in social work and knew
the needs Of the working people from
flrst-hard conduct
