D. C. WAGE QUIZ
SEEKS TO Define
BOARDING HOUSE
Landlords Fight Raise
In Pay for Help

How many paying guests" make
a boarding house?
The question weighed today by
the District conference on mini
mum wages for women workers ir
hotel, restaurant and allied indus
tries.
Also to be settled was the mum
Der of persons one roof may shel
ter before it comes under the
"rooming house" category.
TEN SUGGESTED AS LIMIT
Mrs. R. Thomas West, repre-
senting the public at the confer
ence, attempted to settle both
these problems yesterday with a
motion that the minimum wage
law apply only to establishments
which feed or house 10 or more
persons outside the immediate
family.
The motion directed the Mini
mum Wage Board to broaden the
definition which in the law holds
four persons outside the family
are sufficient to bring boarding
and rooming houses within the
jurisdiction of minimum wage leg
islation.
On pleas of employer spokeS'
men, the conference voted to hold
the motion in allegiance until its
meeting tomorrow when add
tional data will be marshalled in
connection with competition be
tween boarding and rooming
houses and hotels and restau
rants
OPERATORS PROTEST
The motion eliminated testi
mony by a half dozen witnesses
that operators of boarding and
rooming houses already have q
hard enough time to make both
ends meet without shouldering
the additional burden of increased
wages for their help.
Mrs, Mary w. johnson, OF 1922

of other women who cannot speak

The added the practice of girls
clubbing together in apartments
has not eased the situation she
said adding that excessive com
petition" has developed through
the racket" Of selling boarding
businesses.
In this connection, Mrs. John
son said boarders demand and ge
concessions for absence although
expenses continue unabated.
"I can't buy a chicken with
one leg off because somebody
misses q meal" she said.
Questioned as to the difference
between "boarders" and paying
guests" Mrs. johnson clarified:
"I call them boarders, but
most others call them paying
guests. That's a little more
'high-fallutin'."
The witnesses testified the!
