Washington. — Center market, on

many a Saturday morning discussing
the beef situation with Us butchers.
Now a bill Is pending In congress
for destruction o f the building ufter

structure to house the Department of
Justice.
Jacob West, seventy-seven-year-old
butcher, whose neat tittle stain! has

Secretary o f Agriculture Jurdine Is
a frequent visitor at the market, al
though only in an olllclal capacity.
His w ife and two daughters are regu

Senators Smoot und Borah both are
wise purchasers, market vendors say,

Both o f the cabinet's Davises ulso are
