Proud Daddy
Father of Cabaret Starts
Many Noted Stars on
Road to Fame.

BIZ United Press
DARIS, Oct. ga. NJ. Nelson
L Fysher, the daddy of the
cabaret, is proud Of his child!
AS the originator of the first
cabaret in the world, he ranks as
a trailblazer in the forest of night
life.
AS a writer of songs he con-
ceived the idea that he might
sing them himself with the exact
feeling he had written into them.
People came to hear him.
That was back in the good old
DAYS of about 1896, and on Broad
way. 1t was the worlds first
cabaret.
So he opened up the Chez
Fysher" and took on talent that
he co-starred with him. 1t was an
immediate success.
Practically all Of the famous
cabaret artists tooay have had at
one time worked under his di-
rection.
Among them are Irene Bor-
doni, the late Rudolph Valentino
and countless others.
During Irene's visit to Paris this
summer she went to see her pre-
miere benefactor and they had a
good laugh over the days when
he started her to work for him
at $50 a week.
Fysher has travelled all over
the world. The crowned heads of
Europe have been entertained at
"Chez Fysher" innumerable times
and the prince of Wales was a
guest no later than September at
Fysher's new cabaret on the Rue
Fontaine.

The proposal calls for inspection

of two or more divisions working
from a central unit and recommends
each unit line be incased in metal
conduitS: that lines have safety
valves. and that pressure tests Of
the lines be conducted before the

1t is not expected action will be
taken soon on the proposed ordi-
nance. due to the city's lack of funds
to hire an inspector to enforce the

HOOVER SILENT
ON CAMP AIGN IN
Pennsylvania
No White House Comment
on Pinchofs Claim of
Support.
BY RAYMOND CLAPPER
United Press stan Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.-Eforts
are being made to draw President
Hoover against his wishes into the
election campaign now nearing its
climax.
Thus far, in face of strong
pressure, he has fought of all ap-
peals from Republican candidates
seeking White House help. He
visited four states in his recent
speaking tour, but INDUCED in no
boosting Of Republican candidates..
He avoided even having his pho
tograph taken with them, or in any
other way conducting himself so that
he might be capitalized by party
candidates.
So far as he is concerned, Pres
ident Hoover is trying to avoid be-
ing made an issue in this campaign.
AS wartime food administrator, Mr..
Hoover joined Woodrow Wilson in
appealing for election Of a Dem
ocratic congress in 1918, and he saw
the country answer by returning Re
puolicans to power.
No White House Comment
President Hoover has been drawn
into the intense Pennsylvania gov
ernorship contest within the last
twenty-four hours.
Clifford Pinchot, Republican can
didate for Governor, is quoted as
having said he received word his
election was hoped for by President
Hoover.
Secretary of Labor Davis, Repub-
lican candidate for senator in Penn
sylvania, has denied this. He SAYS
that Mr.. Hoover has not even in
dorsed him, member of the Cabi-
net, and that the President, as the
head Of the nation, can not indorse
political candidates.
The White House refuses to COM
ment.
Pinchot. though Republican cam
didate, is opposed by almost the en-
tire Philadelphia party organization
and numerous other influential Re-
publicans of the state, including w.
w. Atterbury, head of the Penn-
sylvania railroad, who resigned as
Republican national commit seman
because he could not support Pin
Chot.
PinchOt President Possibility
Detecting Republicans are sup
porting John Hemphill, Democratic
candidate for Governor.
Pinchot stands with President
Hoover against repeal of the eight
zenith amendment. Hemphill is for
repeal of the amendment, the VI -
stead act and the state enforcement
act.
However, on economic issues Pin
chot and Mr.. Hoover are Of opposing
schools.
Utility regulation is a leading is
sue in Pennsylvania. with Pinchot
advocating stricter control by an
elected fair rate board. Hemphill
favors the present more liberal APP
pointive public service commission.
Another factor is that many Re-
publican insurgents lock to Pinchot,
if he wins, as a successor to the late
Senator Robert M. LaFollette, as
national leader of the protesting
minority in the Republican party.
Many believe he would seek the
presidential nomination against Mr..
Hoover.

 "Therc are wide and sometimes violent differences Of opinion as to what rates should be increased. We carry letter mail, newspapers, cir culpr matter and parcel post all at different rates and charge specified fees for money order service, C. o. D. service and registry service.

In the last two or three decades this study has been especially devoted to ascertaining the cost or handling each class of mail-first. second third and fourth-and the various special services maintained by the department. Since 1925 this work has been handled by special cost ascertaining bureau in the depart mont whose job was to get the facts to be used as a basis for rate, re- vision.
 Brown explains that the original idea of the fathers of the country was to make the postal service self sustaining and that the users of the | mails should pay all the bills. Thus the postal service was entirely self | supporting for the first 60 years eX- cept for occasional quite~ negligible deficits. But with the discovery of gold in California congress. encour- aging establishment of transporta- ton routes to develop the new from tieIs, began 10 pay huge subsidies for railway and ocean mail contracts | which were not a proper charge against postal funds.

then IS equivalent to 5la cents at this time-and cents if we count the relative wage to labor general ly. The postal dollar gives us three to five times more than any other dollar we spend.
 There seems to be no doubt that an increase on first class mail is justified on both theoretical and practical grounds. We believe 2la cent rate for the present would balance our budget. It also should be borne in mind that proposed legislation for the benefit of postal workers, now pending in congress will. if passed, increase our eX- pcnscS by many millions"

New Britain herald., 1930-04-11

Washington, April 1f.-forr ever SO lpany years everyone has been gripping over the annual deficit Of , ohe post office department, which has grown from $50 in l7S9 to sS5, GOO, 900 last year.
 Now Postmaster General Waiter r. Brown boldly presents the sus- gestion that the deficit be wiped out annually by rate of 2l4 cents on first class mail instead of the pre- vailing rate of cents. He pro- . poses that the users Of first class mail be made to meet the deficit in stead of tho taxpayers in general.
 This idea if Browns, which is bound to create a great deal of dis cussion when it is recommended to congress-as it probably will be, has been carefully thought out in a period during which the postmaster general has reorsanized the post office department both as regards departmental work and personnel. Along with his program for in creased efficiency and economy he

' Washington, Aug. 22 P-Edward s. Faag, who says he fed every pres ident since Grant, with the excep- tion of Wilson and Harding, today added to his treasury of memories sympathetic nod of recognition from President Hoover.
 The white haired hotel steward called at the White House yesterday and won a broad smile from the chief executive by recalling the presidents. concern over food for Herbert.

 Not Remembered at First
 Coming from Virginia to pay his respects to President Hoover, the old steward donned his badges of confederate service for the occasion. The president noticed them but could not place his caller Faag's , face feIh
 Don't you remember that day in San Jose when you came out to ask me about the little fellows food ?" the steward asked the president.
 President Hoover did. He and Mrs. Hoover had stopped en route to Palo Alto. MT. Hoover had gone into the dining room to satisfy himself that his sons food was healthful. The steward had reassured him. X
 So Faag left the executive office beaming with satisfaction.
 T don't know about Mir. Hoover's eating" he said. T never guessed then that he would be president"
 Recalling the various presidents he had served at different hotels the steward mentioned especially Me kinley and Taft.

 He recalled that when Taft went to Charleston for the launching of the battleship South Carolina, he had catered to the presidents taste Tor baked ham by baking two of them in Madeiria. He then had sliced off enough for six persons.
