POURS INTO D. C,

By ELIZABETH OLDFIELD

By ELIZABETH OLDFIELD
The man who wrote the song,
Eyes, We Have No Bananas" was
plainly not a resident Of Wash
ington, for the Capital has plenty.
In fact, with the exception Of
Pittsburgh, washington offers the
biggest market in the country for
banana growers. Millions of the
golden-skinned fruit are eaten here
leach year.
? PART OF FOOD STREAM
Car loads of "hands" of bananas,
as the dealers refer to them, come
into the local market from Balti-
more, 10000 pounds at a time.
They come from Mexico, Central
America and Trinidad.
They are but part Of the never
ending stream pouring into the
Capital for the complicated bust
ness of feeding a half million
hungry citizens with fresh prod
ucts.
There are cheeses from Italy,
Denmark and Switzerland; corned
beef from the Argentine; lamb
from Minneapolis: oranges from
Florida: apples from Virginia;
peppers and carrots from Mary.
land, and eggs from everywhere.
BY truck, by train, by muleback
and by ship. they come. Some.
times they are handled through a
jobber-often by the grower who
does his own shipping and selling.
Some commodities come in daily
Others two or three times a
week, depending on the crop and
the demand.
FARMERS ARE PRESENT
Around the collection centers,
in those darkest hours before
dawn, shivering men and women
stamp their feet and swing their
arms to keep warm, as they un-
load the food for WashingtonianS
and pour it into the markets.
Here is a farmer with a truck
load Of cabbages from Penn Yen,
N. Y. Back Of him is truckload
of oranges from Wintergarden,
Fla. Beside that is a truckload
Of onions.
Nobody says anything. Nobody
seems to care where you drive
or how you park. There isn't any
traffic policemen. It Is an un-
written law that from 4 a. m. to
a. m. you can park-or drive
anywhere you please.
FEW ROBBERIES
If you are a restaurant pro
prietor buying your daily supply
of fruits, vegetables, meats and
cheeses, you may put your pur-
chaSes in your car and leave it
unlocked while you go for more.
Robberies are few and far be-
tween. The marketmen are a law
unto themselves. The last thief
was soundly beaten.

~ HILADELPHIA, July 10.-A
- hearing to review previous re-
ports on proposed ship canal
across the State of New Jersey
will be held at the United States
Customs House here next Wednesday,
Lieut. Col John c. H. Lee, senior
member OF the board, has called the
session. The hearing has been ordered
to determine the advisibility of con-
structing 4 canal OF lesser dimen-
sions" than those previously advocated
by deeper waterway interests
The project last considered was a
channel IS feet deep and $50 feet
wide. connecting the Delaware River
at Bordentown, N. j.. with New York
Harbor via the Raritan River and bay.
A canal across New Jersey Is the
last link in the Federal Government s
Eastern tntra- coastal canal system,
which, for this exception, now extends
from Boston to Miami, Fla.
The proposed canal would shorten
the water distance between New York
and Philadelphia by l55 miles. as well
as eliminating the present dangerous
outside passage for small craft.

on for 20 minutes which the skipper
said was twice IS big as either OF the

A good OUTFIT for marlin fishing in
cludes an SO reel filled with a. thread
line. You. should have no difnculty
with that outflt at Ocean City, al
though 1t would not begin to hold
the marlin found around Bimini and
points south. Many anglers use some
thing even lighter than that and have
q successful trip, and the above speci-
fications are for heavy duty work for
those who like to put their back and
shoulders into their angling.

r UNTIL a few years ago there
was nothing local anglers
l could do in the way of big
~ game fishing other than
few channel bass in the bay or along
the nearby sections Of the Atlantic
Coast. Bluefish. Of course, fall into
the classification OF game fish, but
they can be considered big game, the
kind that you seek with reels larger
than SO, wire leaders and heavy
rods.
Recently, however, the pioneers in
our section of the sporting world have
been opening up new fields OF heavy
fishing. and what's more, discovering
these fields close enough to town for
us to reach them in less than half
a day. One Of these game hsh spots
is the marlin hole. of Ocean City,
