the PROSTATE woman she was forced
to face them partly undressed.
According to her attorneys, Lynn
& HaIlam, the shock to her nervous
system has injured Mrs. Anderson
for life; the $4,000 suit will be a fit
punishment for the store with the
dangerous stairways, they say.
Attorney Lynn, who is handling the
suit, will investigate the following
questions:
Is the moving stairway a menace
to women shoppers?
Is the stairway used simply to ad-
veTtise the store, regardless Of the
safety of passengers?
Was the stairway invented because
children like to ride on it and because
children are always accompanied by
their mothers when in the loop and
because mothers are the best shop
peTs?
Do the stores furnish an INSULT
cient number of elevators in the
stores, so the crowds will have to
use the moving staiTways?
Are the staiTways used because
they give the women a chance to see
many things they might buy and
because they drop shoppers on every
floor and force them to walk back
and forth between tempting displays
Of goods?
