Ltn19t mem 70 you U0TUS VI teSS'/
BY Ernest Greenwich.
In reference to an item that ap-
peared in the Star Of August % by
one w. o. Wheeler.
According to an old saying, when
desperation seizes the g~eeser" seems
to me about the best solution for
the assertion made by a man OF
Mr.. Wheeler's standing,
I am quite sure that if Mr.. Hugh
Johnson were aware Of Mr.. Wheel
er's ability to conduct his own bust
ness, instead of accepting sugges-
lions, he would appoint him on his
staff without delay.
What seems funny to me is why
Roosevelt overlooked the fact in
the first place. I am sure Wheeler
would make a better man for the
restaurant mems association.
He is making an awful lot OF
noise about his employees eating
something. He forgetS the days
gone by when he worked his en-
ployes eighty-fOur hours a week
at about $12 a week or less. Those
days an employee couldn't eat So
worth in a week, for, as a rule,
they were too tired. If ever an
| employe was a slave, he surely was
in the restaurant industry.
On race day, Mr.. Wheeler gave
a certain race driver meals Tor one
year, and on the same date, one
of his managers asked a cook to
work all day in the kitchen for his
board. A 25-cent meal costs about
10 cents, actual price of food.
Don't deny this. MI. Wheeler,
for I have managed restaurants be-
fore you knew there were any such
things outside of Lebanon, with all
due respects to Lebanon.
Now what the NRA means is that
for employer and employe to work
out an agreement to satisfy all. II
this had been done in the first place,
maybe all this ballyhoo could have
been prevented. It seems to me this
would have been done after his first
attempt of a three-man code.
The MIRA is going to do what the
slave driving business man has re-
fused to let the unions do. I, for
one, am a strong man for unions,
and 1 am going to do all I can to
see that every cook or waiter, bar
tender or dishwasher gets what is
coming to him.
If MI. Wheeler would take a little
H. II I-x- a@~Ea1.o,ao with
Martin Shane, 318 North Illinois,
ne might learn a lesson on the
treatment of humanity, and I am
sure Mr.. Shane would oblige.
If the restaurant association had
a man like Mr.. Shane the union
would be obsolete, with all due re-
spect to everybody involved. I
would say that if MI. Johnson says
we are entitled to these 10-cent

DEAR, dearl Hollywood keeps
us in a perpetual stew. Now
comes the news that another of its
desperate searches is on-this time
for "a poisonous golden blond, so
hypnotic that when she winks one
blue eye all the men in her vi
cinity will be willing to leave their
happy homes for her"
Probably right now, all the tow
heads from Miami to Maine are
aflutter with hope. Thousands of
young girls with white skins and
honey-colored locks will dream
nightly Of fame and fortune and of
lovers come awooing.
This def reference to neighbor-
hood husbands deserving at the
wink of an eye is typical movie stuff,
but hardly rational and I only hope

The recent depression threw a
monkey wrench into romance as it
is dished up from Hollywood. And
the ladies who live by their charms

Marthas are staging a comeback

drawing room arts, now engage the
major masculine attentions.

No Waste Here
By William Murphy.

By William Murphy.
TINE gentleman who labeled
himself Fair Play in your
issue of August 81 either is woe
fully ignorant of the facts or is
trying to be misleading. Firemen
do not receive $40 a day; less than
half of that, to be exact. The
actual time that they put in
would amount to the equivalent of
twelve hours a day if they had to
be on duty every day.
Their kitchens, including gas,
are furnished by the men them
selves and do not cost the city a
cent. The beds were placed in the
dierent houses long before the
gentleman ever thought of raising
a protest about them, so the tax
payers would be no better off if
they were moved.
Perhaps the brother would re-
ceive great satisfaction if the fire
men were forced to sit up all
night and throw paper wads at
each other. The suggestion that
the vacation without pay be put

it will not put false notions into
feminine heads.
For, in spite of the moving pic
lures, the American man is getting
harder to catch all the time, and
the poisonous blends are having less
success.

THOROUGHLY disillusioned as
IL he is, the big strong herman
of the country is looking now for
something more substantial and
lasting than siren loneliness. He
may enjoy seeing it on the screen,
but at home he prefers less gaudy
charms and more common sense
about managing a budget and cook
ing a steak.

they subsisted largely on such ma
ural diets.
DR.. Hammil replies that primitive
man had to be content with what
ever food he could get, that this
often was scanty, and therefore not
d~ietetically suitable.
There was a time when food
supplies in the United States were
limited in the same manner, but
today, by means of modern trans
p~ortation, there is no food sup
stance anywhere in the world that
can not be made promptly available.
Although many different varieties
of food are available, many people
live on a very limited food supply.
In some parts Of the country the
standard dinner is meat, potatoes,
gravy, bread, coffee, and molasses.

Questions and Answers

Q-What is the most efficient
means of controlling bedbugs?
A-Possibly the most efficient
remedy is to fumigate the house
or rooms with hydrocyanic-aci
gas. This gas will penetrate into
every crevice in the house or
rooms where bedbugs conceal
themselves and is Immediately ef-
fective and is recommended when
the infestation is considerable or
of long standing. This method of
fumigation should be employed in
diligently, as the gas is deadly
poisonous. A mimeographed bull
letin giving directions for such
fumigaton may be obtained from
the Washington bureau, 1922 New
York avenue, Washington, D. c.,
upon request, accompanied by a
Scent stamp for return postage.

meals for Is cents I am sure that
every employe in the industry would
be satisfied, but if he says we eat
free, I say every employee eat free.
Another thing we are not feeling
so brotherly about is the attempt
Of Mr.. Wheeler to take the tips
away from the walters. He should
don an apron himself and earn his
tips, as we do.

- HICAGO, May 27.-Today
4 was the second anniver-
~ sary of the election of
william Harridge to the
presidency Of the American
League, and he had ordered a half
holiday-so that his office force
might attend the opening of the
World Fair.
His two years as the third president
of the younger major league have IN
cluded some lively hours. Bill Dickey
of the Yankees, and Carl Reynolds then
of Washington, had their run-in year
ago. with resulting $1,000 fine and 50
days suspension for the New YORK
catcher.
The famous battle of the runway
at Cleveland between Umpire George
Moriarty and several members OF the
Chicago White Sox, followed with SINH
lar results. Ben Chapman and Buddy
Myer Staged another New York-Wash-
ington battle early this season, and
again Harridge used the fine and sus-
pension punishment.
But he has not become harsh, and
his decisions have been accepted al
most without murmur.
Harridge is particularly pleased with
the competition in his league and be-
lieves that, with few weather breaks,
attendance figures will continue to i'm
prove. st. Louis was the only bad luck
spot. he said
The Yankees still are tough" he
says, "but the other clubs are staying
right with them. The improvement in
| the Chicago White Sox and Boston Red
Sox will do lot to make the race in
