to solve the farm problem which has
held the attention Of congress for a
period Of years.

farm board assembled began the task
Of solving the American agricultural
problem.
The members also were given their
first opportunity to become personally

generally known within the group was

MANASSAS ROAD
PLEA TO BE HEARD
Delegation Expected at Fair
fax Courthouse Tonight for
C. of C. Meeting.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

FAIRFAX, Va, February 7.-Presi-
dent Martin Webb has called a meeting
of the Fairfax County Chamber OF Com
merce for tonight in the courthouse. The
half hour from 1880 to pm. has been as
signed to a delegation from the KiwaniS
Club of Manassas to be headed by Rob-
ert A. Hutchinson, vice president, and
DR.. G.. r. c. johnson, director, who
have requested permission to present to
the chamber plea for the assistance OF
Fairfax County in the mutual problem
presented by the seven-mile road from
Manassas to Centerville. One-half OF
this road is in Fairfax County and one
half in Prince william County. The
committee came to Fairfax on Monday
morning to interview President Webb
a d E. H. Allen, chairman of the cham
ber's road committee.
The balance of the meeting will be
devoted to a discussion of the Farmers
Market site location problem. In 192 &
the chamber went on record In favor
Of the Southwest site, 1t being the opin-
ion of the members who studied the
question at that time that the latter's
nearness to the Virginia shores meant
an advantage to Virginia farmers. In
view of the opposition to the South
west site which has been shown by the
Virginia farmers who operate on the old
cub market site. at B street, and the
conflicting opinions of the directors,
who have recently studied the problem,
it was decided at the last meeting of
the directors to ascertain at a public
hearing the opinion of the agricultural
interests of Fairfax County before TAX
ing action on the recommendation sub
mitted by Franklin Williams. chairman
of the agricultural committee. This
resolution calls for resembling the for
mer action of the chamber in favor of
the Southwest site and requests that
Senator Carter Glass withdraw his sup
port of the Stalker bill, now pending in
Congress, and support instead the rec
ommendation. offered by. Senator Ar
thur Capper Of Kansas, chairman Of the
District COMMITTEE, to the effect that
the entire question of market site loca-
ton be taken out of politics and left to
the decision of a disinterested comis-
sion of market experts to be appointed
by the Secretary of Agriculture or other
non partisan Official. Invitations are be-
