The market for nitrate Of soda has
advanced sharply within the last week
quotations having reached $40, with
offerings considerably lighter than in

effect of the recent coal strike and
resultant embargo upon fuel. which
prevented vessels from sailing. and
thus shut out receipts OF nitrate, with
the result that the marke, was swep,

Fund That Caused Split Be-

Is Subject of Controversy

More than 900 volunteer workers
most of them women, who aided in the
sale of surplus army foodstufs at the
seventy sales stations maintained bv
the city for three months. are demand
ing the 100000 profit from the sale in
payment for their services, it was
learned yesterday.
Inc workers, many of whom have tes-
tined from time to time to losses in
torn clothing, have signed petition
and forwarded it to Mayor Hylan. The
mayor passed it OF to David Hrsch-
heid' Commissioner of Accounts, who
ho'ihed many of the signers yesterday
TO appear at his Office to testify regard :
ing the services they had rendered.
$4,000, 600 Sales
The 100000 was realized from the
sale Of more than $4,000 900 worth Of
army foodstuffs. The sale was super
vised by the then Deputy Markets Com
missioner, Z. j. OMalley. while l.r
Jonathan {. Day was head of the de-
psrtment. Near the close OF the sale.
~nen W Day was asked concerning the
disposal OF the surplus moneys. he re
Piled that he though it should b. d.
vided among the volunteers.
When Mr.. O'Malley was made Markets
Commlssioner by Mayor Hylan, follow
ing the summary dismissal of DR.. Dav.
the $300,O00 surplus became the center
OF bitter discussion. Dr.. Day claimed
That Deputy Markets Commissioner
smith, representing Mr.. OMalley. had
offered to divide the surplus with him.
Ihis was emphatically denied by both
Smith and OMalley.
MIR. OMalley turned the money over
TO COMMITTEES of five, appointed by
The Mayor and headed bv Citv Cham
berlan Berozhemer. 1t is understood
this committee will determine on the
disposition of the money and that some
charitable enterprise is being consid-
cred most favorably
O'Malley Steps Out
When the workers who had served
without pay in selling the army food
heard of this they sent delegations to
see Commissioner OMalley He ad-
vlscd them that the matter was en-
trely out of his hands and that the
only recourse was an appeal to the
committee or the Mayor.
Colonel j. NJ Carson. zone supply
ofiicer, declared yesterday that groce rv-
men of this city were refusing to han
DE surplus army foodstutfs at 25 per
cent profit. This margin was agreed on
tentatively, he said, at meeting be
tween him and representatives Of the
dealers organizations on December 12
After the meeting, Colonel Carson said
the interest Of the grocerymen in the
TODD dwindled, until fiat refusal was
given.
He broadly ntimated that the gov
ernment would not hesitate to open its
own chain of retail grocery stores in
the city, if necessary to bring the food
TO consumers at reasonable price He
made it plain that the government
would not release the food unless it
was understood that it would reach the
public at low price.
