City Commissary to Distribute Food in Elyria
A city commissary to distribute food to 500 or more needy families in Elyria will open in the city hall early next month. Mayor W. H. Van Oster says bids will save 15 to 20 percent on food costs by purchasing directly. The plan shifts from script to cash purchases, with the commissary likely run by City Scott. The move follows a relief cut from 40000 to 22400, and taps city gardens and unemployed workers for food and fuel.
