MARKET RAZING
TIME SET

The farmers produce market
moved another step toward oblivion
today when the Treasury Depart.
ment, through Assistant Secretary
Carl T. Schuneman, notified the Dis
trict Commissioners that both the
east and west sheds should be razed
by the first Of February.
Originally, the Treasury Depart
ment had asked for the removal of
the easterly sheds. Since that re-
quest was made the Government
has acquired the square of land ad.
jacent to the westerly sheds.
The Assistant Secretary states
that the department wishes to build
the proposed Internal Revenue
Building as whole rather than in
sections, thus eliminating added ex:
pense. The concrete pillars and
certain sections of the market sheds
will be stored on vacant property
at Gallinger Hospital until another
market site can be made available
by the District Commissioners.
Several sites-eight in all-have
been inspected by the Commission
ers who plan. not later than Deem
her Is. to designate one, which. in
their opinion, will serve the needs
of the public.

Wide Range In Price
Of Auto Fuel Barred
By A. A. A.

There is no uniformity of gaso-
line prices in the United States,
according to the American Auto
mobile Association which has just
completed nationwide survey Of
prices.
The lowest price was found to
be in Peoria, ILL.,, where straight
gas was found selling for 10
cents a gallon, and the highest
in Phoenix, Ariz., where the same
grade brought q cents.
The prices seem to be governed
by local conditions and supply,
the association said, as "proximit,
to sources of supply (the oil fields
appeared to be a negligible factor"

THE OLD MORALE

C'The morale of the Government
service is surprisingly low" says
q Congressman.)
The old morale is pretty low,
We've seen fresh young new
corners go
Above our heads TO higher pay,
As we go on a-getting gray.
The old morale is not so good
As we go ON a-sawing wood
We're just the ordinary mob,
The gang that's always on the job.
The old morale is kind of punk,
Some take it out in getting drunk;
Some grumble, and some talk out
loud,
A mighty discOntented crowd.
Our chiefs, of course, they have
their friends,
And SO-fOr US-advancemente ends;
Wen stumble on together pal
Us-and our leaIxy old morale.
