Notes Newscopy: "Finishing touches. Workmen today are completing the task of getting the new million-dollar flower mart ready for its formal opening on Wednesday. The terminal for the bay area cut flower industry, at Sixth and Brannan streets, is the largest in the country. Some $35,000,000 worth of flowers are shipped from it annually. It is estimated the 60 per cent of air freight out of San Francisco or entering from Hawaii consists of flowers.-Call-Bulletin Photograph."
