ORDINANCE TO CORRECT EVILS IN MARKET READ Stall and Space Auction System Will be Eliminated by Pending Bill. An ordinance providing radical changes In the operation of the city market system waa , introduced for first reading at council meeting last night. . - The ordinance aims to correct evils which have existed In the Richmond market system, recently pointed out by Prof. Stockman of Indiana University, who, after a careful Investigation, state-wide in scope, declared in a publio statement that the Richmond . system was the worst In Indiana, finding especial fault with It because of the plan followed in auctioning off stalls and wagon "backup" spaces, and of permitting commission dealers to operate at the market. .The proposed ordinance alms at a system which will provide more competition between market gardeners with resulting lower prices. Eliminates Auction System In brief, the measure eliminates the stall and space auctioning system. It provides for the rental of each stall at $2 a month and makes no charge for wagon space. The stalls would be alloted each month, the gardeners drawing for places.' Under the terms of the ordinance, commlsion dealers would be prohibited from operating at the market.
