Alexandra Council to Decide
Fate of Landmark Tuesday
Proposal to Move County Market
Back of City Hall Gets Mixed Reaction

moving the market seems the only
solution. according to Mr.. Budwesky
j. Harvey Robinson, proprietor OF
one of the three stores located in the
old square, is one of the chief OBJ
jectors. He has been in his present
location for 81 years. His customers
include many old Alexandrians
whose homes are near the square
and who have been walking to
market for years. Mr.. Robinson does
not think they will come to the new
location, and he objects to what ap-
pears to him an arbitrary and un-
necessary decision of the Council
without consulting the wishes of
storekeepers. Mr.. Robinson paid
$50 at auction for the right to his
site when the stores were built over
80 years ago.
Joseph E. Chauncey. owner of the
largest store in the market, also is
not anxious to move. His family
has been in business in Alexandra
since before the Civil War, and he
has owned his market since 1918.
He is not convinced that business
in a new location will warrant the
cost of moving.
Other Side OF Argument.
Representing the other side Of the
argument is George T. Bender
owner of another market Although
Mr. Bender has been in his present
store for II years, he feels that the
growth of the city makes the move
necessary, and that the traffic con-
gestion and parking difficulties
around the market make a new loca-

ALEXANDRIA, Va, June l3.-
The old country market back of
City Hall, landmark since 1749, will
vanish If town councilman vote yes
on a resolution which will be up for
final passage Tuesday night.
The resolution would let the city
pay $500 for land at Fayette and
Queen streets. so the market might
be moved to this new site.
Some Of Alexandria's longtime
residents will be regretful if the
move is made
Typical is Mrs. Robert NJ Reese,
SIT Cameron street. a great-great-
granddaughter Of William Ramsey,
city founder. She comments that
Alexandria must maintain its his
toric landmarks If it is to retain its
character as the home town of
George Washington. George Mason
and Robert E. Lee. The alternative,
she says. is to become mere suburb
Of Washington.
Office Space Needed.
Carl Budwesky, city manager, eX-
planned that the need for more city
ofice space necessitates moving the
market. At present the city
treasurer is located on the second
floor Of City Hall, and citizens must
climb steep flight of steps to pay
their taxes. The city Offices are
crowded and inadequate. and since
building a new City Hall is out of
the question until after the war,

complete blackout would be detri-
mental to the output and where as
surances have been given that a
complete blackout could be effected.
1t was announced yesterday that
the yellow and blue warning signals
Of approaching danger have been
declared confidential military infor-
nation and their dissemination to
unauthorized persons comes under
the Espionage Act.
Co-ordinator Young quoted
statement issued by National OCD
Director James M. Lands that local
control centers send out the yellow
and blue air-raid warnings only to
those whose air-raid precautions re-
quire more time than the 5-minute
interval following the red signal,
which is the public warning.
Co-ordinator Young also an
nounced that Randolph G. Bishop
had been transferred from the post
of deputy air-raid warden in charge
OF emergency housing to chief bill
letting ofncer Of the Metropolitan
