TRUCKERS ASSOCIATION
 WILL MAINTAIN STALL

The Jefferson County Truckers as- sociatlon will soon open a retail stand in the city market at Morris avenue and Twenty fourth street. It is to keep open after she truckers have sold out and left the market.
 Some difficulty has been expe- rienced, it is stated, in getting all the truckers with stalls in the mar ket to agree not to open until 6 o'clock in the morning. Without some rule to this effect it is not be- lieved the market would be suc- cess. It is reported that hucksters, who are denied the market and said to regard it with a jealous eye, have been prominent in an effort to spread Reorganization, which the associa- tion is stoutly resisting.
 It has been discovered that the city ordinance regulating city mar kets does not allow them to open before o'clock The law and the truckers association are in harmony,
 The truckers reannounce their ln- tention to play fair with the pubic and to make the market more and more attractive.

COMMITTEES ID
 TAKE THE FIELD
 RELIEF CAMPA PAIGN
Volunteers Wanted for 0f- flee Work-PubIic Aroused Over Seriousness of Sit- uation-WiII Aid In
 Finding Work

When teams take the field tomor- row morning in the campaign to raise the funds needed by the emergency relief committee, they will find a responsive and interested public, according to belief of Jay Smith, vice president of the com Inittee.
 Although the work tomorrow will mark the first active solicitation by the committee, nearly s1,OOO in vol untary contributions was received yesterday and several hundred dol- lars had come in prior to that time. From all parts of the city come re- ports that the people are aroused over the seriousness of conditions, and that the public Is ready and anxious to aid in caring for the temporary emergency.
 Take The Field
 # While several of the teams will not be organized to take the field this morning, plans have been made which it is believed will result in concluding the canvass during the present week. The Kiwanis club will not perfect it's organization until the meeting Tuesday. and the Excnange club will not finish it's organization until Wednesday, neither of these clubs having met since the campaign was launched.
 The corporation committee, which will solicit contributions from the corporations and large business houses of the city, as well as many of the wealthy individuals, are ready for the start tomorrow, with Louis Pixitz as chairman. The Rotary club, which will have charge of the indus trial plants, and the Community club, which will solicit in one section of the business district and on the Southside, concluded the organiza- tion at the meeting yesterday, and will be ready to start this morning.
 Aided In WOrK
 ssIt is our plan to conduct this campaign with just as little expense as possible, and we are being aided ir this work by many public spirited firms and individuals" declared Jay Smith. "In order to handle the great mass of work connected with the or- ganization and conduct of the cam paign, the purchase and distribution of food supplies and other work incl dent to careful and systematic re- lief, 1t will be necessary for us to have the help of a number of office men and women.
 "Already the Continental Gin com. pany has loaned us for the duration of the campaign a bookkeeper and stenographer and we can use some other office assistants. Trucks have been loaned by several progressive firms of the city and Drennen Motor company and the Drive-It- ourself company have loaned us automobiles for the use of workers. We are still in need of some more trucks for oc- casional use and also automobiles from time to time to be used by Red Cross and other workers in emer- gency work.
