Should Cover Entire Square,
Says Oldest Inhabitants
Speaker.

Describing early days of the Fourth
Ward" IN the vicinity of the New
Center Market. j. Eliot Wright. speak
ing before the Association of Oldest In
habitants of the District of Columbia
last night oeplored the fact that when
the old Center Market was RACED that
the new market was not built on the
entire square, Fourth to Fifth, K to l.
streets"
The association approved Fire Preven-
ton week October 9 to Is. and at the
request of Inspector George N. Haller
Of the Fire Department, formally loan
ed much of its ancient fire equipment
now housed in its museum. the Old
Union Engine House. at Nineteenth and
H streets. to be used in public exhibits
throughout the city.
In his "reminiscences. Mr. Wright
who is recording secretary and treas
urer of the association. described in
detail many old homes in the vicinity
OF the New Center Market. and highly
commended the market. Referring to
his suggestion that the whole square
from Fourth to Fifth, x to l. streets
should have been purchased for the
new market, Mr.. Wright said: The
property could have been bought cheap
ly, as most of the houses are over 70
years old, and the square would have
been sufficiently large to accommodate
the retail and wholesale markets, with
plenty Of space for automobiles ana
room to accommodate al the country
people.
TOO Much Politics."
Instead, one market was established
Al Water street, the extreme SOUTH
end of the city, and the other out at
the eastern end, while the Savage
track would have been central and the
overhead much less than the three
markets. fear" he said. there was
too much politics in locating the
markets"
The Savage tract a part of which
Is covered by the present New Center
Market Mr.. Wright described as ex-
tending from K to L streets. and from
Fifth street to an alley which divided
the square Telling of the buildings
on the grounds, Mr.. Wright said there
were also an ice pond and an orchard.
"A babbling brook entering at L street"
he said. travelled the whole plot and
finally emptied into the skating pond
Evening star., 1932-10-06

The sides of the brook were covered
with watercress."
Mr.. Wright recalled many historic
and entertaining anecdotes and Incl
dents of the early days in the vicinity,
and was given rising vote OF apprecl-
alton for his address.
In approving the observance CT Fire
Prevention week. the association loan
ed number of pieces of old equipment,
which it was explained by Inspector
Haller will be placed on exhibition.
The old fire engine and hose reel will
be put in the Fox Theater, number
of interesting old insurance markers,
formerly used to mark houses, will be
placed in a window exhibit at the
Palais Royal and number of old fire
hats, helmets and trumpets at Kann's.
Last fiscal year, Inspector Haller de-
clared there was a saving Of 70 per
cent in the fire loss in the District of
Columbia, which he predicted would
pay dividends to property owners by
reduced fire insurance rates. During
the past year he explained there were
$3.50 fires in the city, less by 981 than
the preceding year. The fires in the
past year caused the death of 10 per-
sons, injury to 288. and property dam
age of S307,897 The principal causes
of fires he outlined as 778 automobiles,
624 brush fires, sos due to careless
smoking, 3l2 chimneys, and 169 careless
use of matches.
Look around your homes" he urged
"and see if you cannot eliminate still
further the causes of fires"
Rate Reduction Sought.
