To stop profiteering IN Wilmington s

ths the Board of Directors of the Street

authorizing the clerk of the markets TO
fix maximum prices for food sold therein
He believes that is the only way TO pre-

The Federal government is regulating
the prices of various commodities, he
SAYS, and the city government should
prohibit street market prices that are
gouging thousands Of Wilmingtonians
He contends that the Street and Sewer

streets, has rs much right TO limit food
prices III the street markets a. 10 fix
charges for market spaces. If the market
GERS were dissatisfied with the maximum
prices set by the clerk Of the markets,
he says, they could appeal to the Board
of Directors OF the Street and Sewer
Department for revision
Because the marketeers pay q nominal
gum for the privilege of selling In the
street markets he argues they could not
justly gruInble should the Street and

Ii the marketeers did object to such reg

compelled to lease stores. He believes
The marketeers would prefer reducing
