WHOLESALE MARKET
is OF NO BENEFIT
Would Be Detrimental Rather Than Beneficial Proprietor
of East End Farms Tells Members of Harris
burg Rotary Club

ct believe the idea of a wholesale
market in Harrisburg will be detri-
mental rather than beneficial to the
interests of the consumer, Robert j..
Walton, proprietor of the East End
Farms, near Humm elstown, told
members of the Rotary Club and
their families who were his guests
at cornroast last evening.
I'm the first place" Mr.. Walton
continued, "the farmer has not the
time to attend both wholesale and
retail markets, which would mean
that he would come to markets Tues
day and Fridays, sell to city re-
tailers who would add their profit
and take the goods to market the
next day. AS the arrangement now
is. we bring vegetables, taken from
the ground the day before, to market
and the consumer deals for the most
part directly with the farmer and
gets fresh vegetables and fruits
"A great deal has been written
recently" he continued, about the
great profits the farmers are MAX
ing, ! do not notice that many
farmers are getting very rich. If
the business is so good why is it
that the number of farmers is not
greatly increased by people from the
city? You do not try to regulate
the prices the merchants charge you
for dresses or suits of clothing, yet
all manner of attempts are made to

journey requiring about one hour.

tsy MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED WIRE,

Buenos Aires Aug. 22.-Baron Won
Dem Busche Haddenhausen, former
German minister to Argentina, in an
interview published by the Buenos
Aires Herald, newspaper printed in
English, says that the indemnities
provided for in the peace treaty will
never be collected because they are
so ridiculous and high that the league
of nations will eventually annul or
reduce them. He declares that it is
only matter of time until Germany
will regain "her old place of suprem-
acy."
The baron characterizes the peace
treaty as "a monstrOsity and imposi-
tion without precedent In history"
He asserts that Brazil Ia angling for
German immigration and that the Ar
gentine government may offer in
dueements," but says that the number
Of immigrants from Germany will be
much less than 100000, as previous
ly reported
Regarding responsibility for the
war, he said: Behind the kaiser stood
solidly the German people, who, in
consequence. is the only party re-
sponsible for tn eacts of war; The
baron disposed of President Ebert of
Germany with the statement, "He is
a capable enough fellow" He says
the future government of Germany
is problematical but, but declares he
is sure the monarchy will never be
restored.
