were the salient features OF the address
Of John Welch of Omaha. president OF
the National Restaurant Association,
before 100 of the nations leading res
taurateurs at their recent third annual
convention In Los Angeles.
''In the service we perform for hu-
manity we have an opportunity equal
he said. I'm all seriousness I assert
that the plane of our industry should be
elevated to that Of the clergyman's, the
physicians and what should be the
lawyers.
''The efforts Of this association must
be pledged to two distinct purposes
First. to work for helpful and constrtic-
tive legislation; second. TO elevate the
plane of our industry to that OF a pro-
fession. Organization and service ideals

rived from such gatherings.

the public had but two battle cries.

In reference TO the prices of food

II have no brief for any restaurant
man who will lower prices under pres

that you can be compelled TO reduce. II
You can reduce ii Under pressure you
could reduce 1t before and should have
done SO. There is no law on earth or In
heaven that compels you TO do business
at a loss and you should be able and
willing to show that you are not profi-
teering.
when you reduce prices under pres

have been holding them up. They will
never forget it. and It hurts everybody

ALIEN DEATH RATE
IN CITY Is LOWEST
American Families Too Proud
to Use Free Medical Ser
vice Offered,

Failure on the part OF American
families to avail themselves Of free
health service is resulting in a rapid
gain OF foreign stock in the city's popu-
lation. according to DIR. s. Josephine
Baker, head Of the Bureau Of Child
Hygiene Of the New York city Health
Department.
'"The highest death rate for children
is not. as 1t might be easy to suppose,
among the poor and ignorant foreign
born,' said DR.. Baker, "but among
our self-respecting American families.
Foreign born mothers are accustomed
to government care and will 20 to
clinics and dispensaries and public
health stations and take their children.
when the American Is too proud to do So
THE result Is that American families
who are not well enough off to pay the
high cost Of Illness when privately at
tended by physician simply do without
medical service. and the result is seen
in the fact that more of their children
die than among the foreign born.
And, of course, the result of this
is that the population of New York
State is being replenished from the
foreign born. and not from American
stock. And the group of self-respecting
wage.carning people who refuse free
medical service Is the largest group
and probably the most important to the
welfare OF the country and the perpetu-
ating of its ideals.
''They cannot and should not accept
charity. But they should learn to feel
that free health service, such as our
baby welfare stations, are not charity
they are the protection of the entire
community against disease.
'Then, there certainly should be
places where the sick In moderate CIR
cumstances can obtain comfort that II

of place that the new Fifth Avenue
