This World
BY Cecil E. Newman

If you want to learn the real truth
about the various people of your COM
munity, get yourself job as col
lector. Strange to say the average
collector gets closer to the real char
acter of the average citizen than the
preacher, teacher or business man..
The artificial pose and company man
ners of most people is not revealed to
collectors. If John Doe is a promi-
nent big-hearted citizen in public,
often he is revealed to the collector as
an insulting penurious individual who
wants something for nothing.

CAFE OWNERS
LAUD POLICY
Of NRA
Many Raising Salaries and
Adding Help; Code Is Not
Satisfactory to All

Restaurant owners in Washing
ton disagree upon the merits Of
the code for their industry now
pending with the National Re.
covery Administration, but all
who have been interviewed by
The Washington Times united in
extolling the NRA principles in
general.
From the proprietor Of the hot
dog stand to the proprietor Of
the fashionable and expensive
restaurant, all are enthusiastic
about President Roosevelt's plans
to put the country back on its
feet.
But the restaurant code? That
is another matter.
The owner of a barbecue" es-
tablishment on the outskirts Of
Washington said today that the
certainty of the coming of a code
affecting the working hours and
wages of her employees had in
duced her to go out of business.
Code Lauded
On the other side of the pic
ture stand such restaurateurs as
Peter Borras, proprietor Of the
Madrillon. He says:
"The restaurant code will do
much good for the better type
of restaurant. It will ferret out
the Chiselers in the industry
the people who know nothing
about the business, but start up
shop and expect to make money
by working their employees for
long hours at low wages"
Payroll Raised
The payroll at Harvey's Res
taurant has already been increased
by Is per cent, says Julius Lulley,
proprietor, in praising the NRA.
He states:
II am heartily in favor Of
the Presidents PLANS. I hope
they work out we'll. Their sue
cess, however, involves the CO.
operation of everybody. Res
taurant owners and all other
employers must follow their
codes to the letter, and con-
sumers must cooperate by
throwing their buying power the
right way"
The restaurant code will raise
the standards of the industry, he
adds, in pointing out that prices
will eventually need to be com.
mensurate with the cost of serv.
ing good food.
Workers Added
Mrs. Bessie G.. Collier, pro
prietor of the Collier Inn, states
that under the code she will ado
at least five new employees, and
raise the total payroll of her es
tablishment from $50 to 500 g
