Federal Judge Julian Mack, pre- siding at the Daugherty trial is known among his friends as a gour- met. He does the marketing for his home, carving baskets of vegetables and meat cuts with him. His fas- tidiousness keeps walters In restau- rants he frequents on the qui vive. He travels on one liner only on his annual voyages to Europe, selected solely because 1t has the best ca vaire.

 Manufacturers of the brass and nickel foot rails apparently are still doing a good business. A large in crease has been noted in the number of food bars" where both men and women can stand up to a mahogany bar for a quick lunch. These bars are just like the old fashioned ones behind swinging doors.
 Visitors to New York expecting to see movie, stage or literary celeb rities in the noted dining places usually are disappointed. For the most part they dine In little out-of- the-way places where they can find relief from the probing eyes of the public. Small, low-ceilinged restau- rants, some of which would be classed by their appearance as mere "ham-and- egg emporiums" attract dozens of these people.
 Psychologists might find signifi- canoe In the action of crowds that inevitably gather to watch workmen putting up steel girders and great brick cliffs" for new skyscrapers that are continually springing up. These white collar workers appar- ently seek release from their ledger books and typewriters in watching the riveters and holsters perform their often-perilous tasks.
 New York prizes its trees and con- seuuently they receive meticulous at tention. Tree surgery Is lavished upon them by most of the owners. Even small tree-shaded rear courts are covetously cultivated.
 Fashionable Park Avenue offers a study in contrasts any morning In | the year at four or five o'clock.

 Another place that reeks Of con- trasts Is Grand Central Terminal. 1 Some of the greetings and fareWells overheard within ten minutes, dur ing a late afternoon rush, were: "Tll never leave New York again."
