CAFETERIA PLAN
 MEETS WITH FAVOR
Desire to Save Time in Eating, Factor in Its Success

Chicago, Jan. 2S.-The desire or the part of the average patron of the public eating house to save time and money in procuring his meals, is assigned by C. A. Westberg, manager of chain of Chicago cafeterias, as the reason for the rise of the cafe teria during recent years to a promi- nent place in public favor.
 People also like to see what kind of food they are getting before they order it." he says, asserting that the advantage of inspecting the various dishes offered is a possible third fact or in the growth of the self service" plan.
 MT. Westberg says that whereas five and six years ago people hesitated to -patronize a first-floor cafeteria for fear of being recognized by friends, and that establishment of such a place was then a precarious step on that account, now the help yourself" idea is at the height of it's popularity. In the five self service eating houses in Chicago managed by Mir. West berg, 15.0OO meals are served daily, he estimates. He fixes the average amount of a check at 45 cents.
 Few persons attempt to evade pay ment of their bills, and these are usually boys of from IT to 20 years of age, and occasionally women. Such attempts often are successful during the busy periods. Other patrons, while willingly paying for their meals carry away with them souvenirs in the form of cafeteria equipment, such as spoons and napkins. \ supply of one hundred dozen small German Sil- yer butter plates put into service at one cafeteria a year ago has been depleted through onslaughts of "sou venir hunters" and now practically none remain in possession of the house
 '"The butter plates made very ac- ceptable ash trays" remarked MT. westberg in accounting for their dis appearance.
 Napkins are often taken away by customers through oversight and many of them returned. The man. agement, Mr. Westberg states, re- ceives in the mail every week napkins from various parts of the middle west, apparently taken away uninten- tionally by Chicago visitors.
 The manager sees hope for further declines in the cost of meals but de- clares such reductions must be pre- ceded by wage reductions. He says the cost of labor has increased more than 100 per cent. in the past four years.
 A decided preference for table lin- en rather than bare tables has been expressed by patrons. he says.

Rockville. Jan. 2s.-Overtime work

In doing this the manufacturer did away with the wartime schedule of time and one half for overtime. This did not meet with the approval of all tht employees. The picker house and carding room men accepted the proposition of over time work, but the spinners and dressers said they would not work un- til they were offered time and one- half for overtime work. 1t is hoped to settle the matter among the em- ployes of these two departments.

DUKE PLANNING
 FOR NEW COLONY
Undertakes Program for the De-
 VelOpment of SOmailand

Rome. Jan. 2S.-The Duke. of the Abruzzi has undertaken an ambitious program tc develop the resources of Italian Somaliland, tho most eastern part of Africa, by reason of the ex- petition to that colony on which he has embarked. The distinguished Italian explorer plans t6 fight tho dreadful form of malarial fever which decimates the people and the terri ble tse-tse fly which attacks the cat tie. He hopes also to increase the production of cotton and other prod ucts of the colony.
 He will attempt to accomplish this by controlling the course and the sur plus waters of the Ubi Shebeli river, the main water supply of the south ern portion of Somaliland, known as the colony of Benadir. The Duke plans to spend the entire winter in an effort to make it healthy, pros porous and a sourco of profit to Italy.
 An attempt will be made to direct the irrigation of the country adja- cent to the river by constru ction of reservoirs for the use Of animals so as to save them from the tse-,se fly which attacks them when they are taken to the river to drink
 Starting from Mogadiscio the Duke will go by the Cbi Shebel river to Maaddei where his enterprise will be centered. He carried a large quan- tity of agricultural machines and hopes with their aid to develop cot ton growing along the river. as the English have done along the Mic.
 The government is aiding in the de- velopment of Benadir colony by inn proving the caravan roads which lead into Maaddei.

POOR ROAD RETURNS


 Per Cent Profits Arc Being Made
 Today.
 Washington. Jan. 2s.-Local condi- tions and not rate divisions among carriers are accountable for the finan- cial condition of New England rail- roads, W. Fl. Williams. chairman Of the Wabash railroad, told the inter- state commerce commission today. He said roads could be found in all sections which were not making a per cent return.
 The contention of New England lines that they should receive more on the division of joint tariff line freight rates was not sound as 1t would tend to re-group the carriers in the eastern territory, and place New England in q separate group, Mir. Williams said. Congress had in- tended the six per cent return fig- ure. he added, to apply as fair aver ago and not as a guide to the com mission in giving additional revenues to any one road.

TRAGIC CHANGES IN
 AUSTRIAN CAPITAL
Vienna, Once Gay City, Now
 Place of Misery

Vienna, Jan. 26.-One American business man who has just revisited
 this city was so surprised at the changes that had taken place in the once gay Austrian capital that he de- clared that the panorama of misery
 he witnessed here waS-the greatest shock of his life.
 Henry Ba.rna of St. Paul. Minn., last visited Vienna ten years ago when. as he said, there was great fun" here. Now he has returned and spent about two weeks. long enough. he says, to know what he is talking about
 "I never dreamed" said MT. Barna to an American Red Cross representative here, that Vienna would show such tragic effects of the war. have been in nearly every capital of Europe since the armistice, but nowhere have I seen such whole sale misery. Everything is out of joint Everything Is uncertain. Food is scarce, and fuel still more difficult to obtain. I don't suppose anyone can be happy in a sea of misery like this.
 Why" he went on, there isn't a smile. much less laugh in that crowd" referring to the people pass ing the hotel in the Ringstrasse. They seem so sad and dull-eyed, these Vhennese. who were so gay when I was here before.
 Everybody seems to be carrying something. Those little bundles are scraps of food which they have been given by some more fortunate neigh bor or relief agencies. There's a man in a fur coat carrying a hand kerchief full of food. He wouldn't be seen doing that when I was here last. He would be too proud
 MT. Barna told of visit he had made a few days before to the Wienerwald, great forest, an hours street car ride from the cen ter of Vienna, where he saw a sight which he likened to a nightmare. The people were allowed to go there for wood and were emerging from the forest, their backs heavily laden with the packs of fuel.
 There were hundreds of men, women and children" he said, their clothing soaked with the cold rain and they were filing along the roadside in an almost unbroken line. all headed for Vienna, stopped from the weight of so or 70 pounds of wet wood. Sixty pounds was their allow. ance, but I was told that many slip ped by the inspectors with moro than that.
 There were many sorts of people in that line which has been stretched along that road for more than a year. I saw a woman of evident gentle birth, in a fur coat, probably the last vestige of her wealth, bent over under the weight of her pack. trudging along beside A former officer in fhc Austrian n rr,x who still wore his great grey coat and cap. Then came children of the very poor with their little feet pro- truding from their worn shoes. It was very wet underfoot and at their every step one could hear the water boxing from their shoes"
