BY SALLIE v. III. PICKETT.

The front of the White House along
Pennsylvania avenue way looks just
now pretty much as it did in the Theo-
dore Roosevelt administration when a
general restoration of the mansion was
going on. The changes being made
there now are almost altogether con-
fined to the basement. However hun
dreds each day are eager to peep be-
hind the tall green fence that shuts
the driveway off from the public and,
not content with their INSTRUCTED view
from the East Room windows, they
trail up the walk from the avenue and
peer behind the fence to assure them
selves that the foundation of the man
sion is still there. Many moons will
rise and set before the mansion as
sumes its wonted home atmosphere
for the President and his family are
on vacation.

still fresh in the mind, Senators and

Felicia-and lived on board during the

anchor for their home at Providence,

in relays on board the little vessel.
Even their Washington Midwinter res
idence at the Anchorage, has the prop

Senator and Mrs. Key Pittman, like
many others of the Upper House, have
chosen homes far from the center OF
usual social activity and only after
the last struggle of the Congress
turned lovely Ridgelands with its
forest trees and winding drive over to
caretakers and left for their Nevada
home. Senator Pat Harrison. upon
whose shoulders the President often
learned, has gone to his picturesque

the Lower House, both Democrats and
Republicans, are seeking closer rela-
lions with their constituents. The

APP BANANAS
R|PENED HERE

Four specially constructed rooms
in the Washington warehouse of
the Great Atlantic and Pacific Tea
Company are used to store bana-
mas while they ripen to that
golden hue which proclaims the
goodness that has made them a
favorite fruit of thousands.
The bananas are selected by
A6EP experts when they reach
this country from their native
Central or South American coun-
try and are unloaded from the
ship.
Only the finest punches are
chosen for A6SP users, and these
then are shipped to the warehouse
where they at once are placed in
the storage rooms. There they are
kept at the proper temperature
and humidity until they ripen.
The Washington times., 1935-10-15
A&P Transportation
Methods Save

Making the most of transpor.
tation facilities is one of the Sc.
crets of the Great Atlantic and
Pacific Tea Company'S ability to
put fresh food of every kind in all
of its stores and put it there at
low cost.
Short cuts in transportation ex.
penses are always being sought by
the A65P traffic men, for it is a
great factor in the retail price of
food.
Since canned salmon is not per-
ishable, for instance, it is sent
from the Pacific fishing grounds
through the Panama Canal to At
lantic ports and takes a lower
rate. The same thing cannot be
done with California lettuce, of
course, for 1t is perishable and
must be rushed on. fast trains to
all parts of the country.
Buy From Growers
Buying from growers or grow
ers' organizations and shipping in
carload lots to strategically 10,
Gated A&P warehouses and plants
without the participation Of a
middle man, also accounts for
the appreciable savings in the
final cost of food.

ing halfway across the North
American continent.
And the huge item of expense
The Washington times., 1935-10-15

bthat the public does not consider
is the interest on the money in
vested in products in transit. If
coffee takes a week longer than
it should to reach the North
American market, the capital in
vested in the coffee is tied up for
seven extra days. This means loss
Of interest for seven days on the
money invested in that coffee. If
the trip on the other hand Is
shortened by several days, we
have saved money. Let such eX-
ampleS be repeated thousands OF
times and some idea of the saw
ing that is made by our speedy
transportation methods can be
had. Once again, such savings
mean lower prices to the con-
Sumer.
Ingenuity Saves
Entry into the meat and pro-
duce business called for the use of
all our transportation facilities
and knowledge. Getting meat and
vegetables from abattoir and gar
den to stores, keeping them alb
solutely fresh, required all of the
ingenuity of the worlds greatest
chain store organization. Spend
a night at one of the produce
warehouses and see how it is done.
And so it goes. The railroad
ticket for goods might well, with
less scientific and efficient hand
ling, be increased by millions and
millions of dollars, and Mr.. and
Mrs. Public would in that case
have to pay more for their gro

onions and other vegetables are
each handled in somewhat similar
fashion and dispatched in properly

are needed. The shortest and
quickest way from orchard and
field to the consumers is A7sP'S

FIELDS C0MBED
TO FIND BEST
INTRODUCE
Vegetables and Fruits
Direct from Grower
To Your Table

Harvest never ceases for APP
In every month of the year some
where a food crop is ripen1ng,
somewhere vegetables are matur-
ing. And when the crop is ready
for the market, A&P buyers are
on hand to purchase requirements
from the cream of the crop.
Busy men are these AS5P prod
uce buyers. Through their Staffs
of field men they know what to
expect from each producing Sec
ton long before the fruits and
vegetables have reached maturity.
Deals Directly
A&P deals directly with the
growers for much of the fresh
fruit and vegetables that are for
sale in A&P stores. Only by going
to the source can it get the quail
ity desired in the quantities that
It needs.
A force of 200 buyers and in
IoectorS is busy all over the coun-
ny, doing this kind OF work
throughout the year.
Some idea Of the magnitude OF
the task these men have to do is
indicated by the quantities of the
various products which are pur-
chased and shipped under their
direction to supply A65P needs.
A train of tens Of thousands Of
cars would be necessary to trans
port at once all the potatoes,
oranges, apples, lettuce, spinach,
bananas, etc., which are pur-
chased in the course of year by
the customers who trade in A6CP
stores.
Handling of Potatoes
Notice how potatoes, the larg-
est vegetable crop, is handled.
ASP operates a large number
OF potato houses in the States that
produce the northern crop. In
these houses, which are collection
centerS, the potatoes are inspected
for quality. The poor ones are
eliminated, and those of A&P
standard are packed, sacked and
loaded on trains for shipment to
destination points from which
they go directly to both A&P
warehouses and stores. The
southern crop is handled in
slightly different manner. Stor-
age houses are not operated in the
South, but in many cases, grow
ers themselves aSSort and grade
their own potatoes.
Oranges, the favorite fruit Of
the American nation, reach A8EP
stores from California and Flor
ida, where they are purchased di-
rectly from growers cooperative
associations. Such associations
maintain their own packing
houses, where the grading and
packing is done by modern meth
DDS. Then the fruit is shipped
to ASSP warehouses.
Storage of Apples
Apples are handled similarly
through the growers associations,
though with this fruit there is
involved the practice of placing
in cold storage those varieties
best suited for winter use.
Iceberg lettuce comes next in
popularity after potatoes, oranges
and apples. Assorted for sizes
and packed between thin layers
OF ice is done in the company'S
own packing sheds in the lettuce
districts. Grapefruit, Spanish
